07-20-2007 = Phoned Immigration Officer; got WAC#; where's NOA1?

09-25-2007 = Touch (first-ever).

09-28-2007 = NOA1, 23 days after their 45-day promise to send it (grrrr).

10-20 & 11-14-2007 = Phoned ImmOffs; "still pending."

01-23-2008 = Consulate gets file; outdated Packet 4 mailed to fiancee 1/27/08; rec'd 3/3/08.

04-29-2008 = Fiancee's 4-min. consular interview, 8:30 a.m.; much evidence brought but not allowed to be presented (consul: "More proof! Second interview! Bring your fiance!").

05-05-2008 = Infuriating $12 call to non-English-speaking consulate appointment-setter.

05-06-2008 = Better $12 call to English-speaker; "joint" interview date 6/30/08 (my selection).

*If your date falls before September 6, please do not forget to check your mailbox!

As we already know the dates with no to very little approval shown,  means noa2s are coming in the mail without update!

Hi! I am new to this topic. I see many people have got problems with just getting NOA-2.... But if you are waiting to schedule an appointment in Moscow embassy then you need to have strong nerves. I've been checking for open dates every day since our NOA-2  (the 19th of January), and still there were no dates. Only lucky people got dates to schedule an appointment. I am so afraid of not getting a date for this appointment. :( I know you can extend your NOA-2 but anyway you cannot plan your wedding and such things without set dates.

Good luck getting your appointment.  My fiance is Russian, although she lives in Greece.  We are waiting to get an Apostille stamped birth certificate from Moscow.  She was originally told that it would take 2-9 months, but she found a company that says they can do it in one month.  Once she gets it, she will have to get it translated by the Greek Ministry of Foreign Affairs, which will take another 2 weeks.  She cannot even schedule an appointment until she submits the translated birth certificate and other packet 3 information.

Hi, I threw this query in here a while ago but I didn't really get it straight. Does the co-sponsor need to fill out an extra  I-134 or an I-864 form? Is I-864 obsolete?
Thanks

Yes the co-sponsor will fill out an I-134 the same as the sponsor and will need the same supporting documents.

I-134 is what you use for the K-1 Fiancee visa and I think you will use the I-864 for when you are doing your Adjustment of Status (Green Card).
