Hi All,

 

Just wanted to share that we have finally received approval on our case! It took a total of 196 days. 

 

  • NOA1: 06-Oct-17
  • NOA2: 20-Apr-18

 

We checked via the old app this morning and it still says received, but the new website says approved. We haven't been tracking via the app so not sure if that has been updated. 

 

Fingers crossed to those of you still waiting - we really hope approvals come in soon!! :):):)

Thank you!! :)

 

Good question - strangely we didn't receive any notification until AFTER logging into the new site and seeing the approval this morning. Literally an hour later after checking (and posting on VJ) we received an email stating they'd taken action on our case and to log into our account to view details. 

 

It's also worth noting that we did attach the G-1145 form to our I-129F form so not sure why they didn't send an e-notification to the phone number / email provided.

My fiance and I have been waiting for over a year. We applied last year in February after we were officially engaged. But we hadn't seen each other in more than three years. Last time I saw him was when I met him in 2013 in London. We kept in touch. Long story short, things happened we didn't officially decide to get married until 2016. My mistake going to a lawyer, she told me it wasn't a big deal if we didn't see each other within 2 years. That we can just show it's because of cultural hardships etc. And I didn't want to delay applying because I've never even heard of this so called fiance Visa. Anyways, we've been through this process before and we were denied in September last year. Obviously within the time we applied and after I visited him twice. So instead of spousal thinking its still the quickest route we refiled. Although I am maintaining a positive attitude, it sucks... I wish this was over. I just want him here or anywhere seriously so we can think about starting a family.. 

 

Rant over lol 

 

Just wanted to share. 

And thanks so much for the love!! You are all great and I hope we are all with our better half soon
