You are absolutely fine!!! Make sure you send an updated letter of intent to marry, too. You sound like you've got it all figured out. We would have been so lost without the forum and the wisdom of those who have been through the process before us. If you have any questions, ask away!!! That link I sent you was a stinkin' God send. I used it for AoS, too.

Atti didn’t get the visa, He was missing 3 documents the consul said. Police certificate needed to be a particular one specifically for immigrants , which I had told him to get cause I had read that on VJ forum and he still got the the wrong one. Same thing for military record.  We also need to apply for a I-601 and an I-212 each $930. (I just checked processing times for those forms on uscis and it says 13-18 months) even though consul told Atti it would take like 3 months. 🤷‍♀️

I’m just depleted right now! 

So sorry about the set back. Had he been deported? I fail to understand why they need more documentation. I pray you find a solution and a fix soon. Cyber hugs

Yeah, just change the date pretty much. I put the date of the interview. My husband did his medical while the status was still "at NVC". It only took a week to get to Manila.

UPDATE:

Finally we already received our rfe letter. It's i think is easy to fix and provide. 

It is a police report with complete details and should have seal by the county State where the case happened. Fiance got this misdemeanor way back 2001 but wasn't convicted but got arrested and the case was already closed

Fiance is just frustrated with the rapidvisa service. They should know what we need to provide before we sent out that packet 11months ago. 

We did provided police report from the county hall that the case was already closed and he is cleared.

But, we are just very thankful that we already got this rfe and start to move forward!

 

Great news!

I logged on for the first time in a month or so and was wondering the same thing!

If the best things in life are free, why is a long distance relationship so expensive!?

Hi Everyone

I havent been on since this thread was in like part III as I was I think one of the last to get NOA2 after filing July 3rd. I joined June to gauge when we might get it but got really fed up after an RFE set us back what felt like forever.

So we got NOA2 eventually and my hopes to move at Easter came and went. I am now awaiting NVC to send the case number correspondence. I have tried calling but encountered some of the worst kind of people on the ‘help’ lines. I thought I’d come back here to see how any other UK folk have found the provessing once it hits NVC as they have quoted me 6-8 weeks eaven though I-797 said a month and that was dated 24th April. 

Is really want to move at the end of July, from those who have just been through this do you think this is achievable?

I have already done my police check and had the injections I could get done ready for the medical. 

Thanks in advance

p.s what has happened to John & Rose, the threads are so long I cant see!?

We were refused because I made a stupid mistake on the petition. I was arrested 28 years ago and the arrest was expunged. I was supposed to mention it and I didn’t. We were refused because I failed to disclose information in the petition. We are doing a CR-1 and plan on getting married in the Philippines I early June.  

PHILIPPINES ONLY!!!  CFO (Commission on Filipinos Overseas) INFO - Can't leave home without it!

 

PDOS (Pre-Departure Registration and Orientation Seminar) is for ages 20-59.  Peer Counseling is for 13-19 years of age.

It is required to have the visa in their passport for PDOS and Peer Counseling.

 

GCP (Guidance and Counseling Program) is for K-1 Fiancee and IR/CR-1 spouse ONLY.

No, still no NOA2 and it’s been almost 11 months...no answers yet

That’s crazy! For us for 8 months we had no email updates even though we asked for them and the website and app never updated once. 

We got an RFE with no update pre or post. Only when we called after returning the RFE to ask if they had it by the deadline did the app suddenly update to RFE received  or something similar and even now it still says that even though we got NOA2. 

 

I called NVC the other day and she was THE rudest person and was like ‘what updates were you expecting?’ And I was like, well for the money we’ve paid ANY freaking updates would be good. After 6 calls, I managed to confirm NVC had booked in the paperwork that day and thats when they said it takes 6-8 weeks for them to process and send to the embassy. They had an expedite email address if I had a reason to expedite such as medical but realistically I have no valid reason to expedite other than its taken AGES and I want to plan the wedding and help guests out to plan their travels.
