 I've waited 43 years so what's a few more months right? HAHA. At least we can laugh. Best wishes today everyone. 

Hahaha, finally I found somebody who must be in my age. I thought I'm surrounded by mid 20th people (which is not bad but makes me feel being old )

We're almost there guys! Me and my fiance cannot wait  

 

On a different note, I was wondering if someone in the October forum can enlighten me on the following matters below ( PS I posted this in the Yes, you can visit page too) 

 

Has anybody got any experience or knowledge regarding entering the United States right after the k1 is approved but without having it activated until you are ready to actually leave your country of residence or origin? 

 

I work as a cabin crew for an international European airline. I operate flights to the United States on a weekly basis specifically to San Diego (which is where my fiance is from) as crew. Entering with my C1/D as per standard procedure for air crew. When I get more than 4 days off in a row I use the opportunity to visit my fiance using my b1/b2 visa or sometimes my ESTA  (during the NOA1 -> NOA2 waiting time) sometimes even visiting him twice in a month on top of my scheduled rostered flights to San Diego. ( So to anybody that is worried that the k1 application might hinder them from entering with VWP or B2 visa, Don't! It is possible! However at this point I would also like to point out that circumstances may differ from individual to individual). 

 

Let's fast forward to June/July and assume that the k1 has been approved and all stamped in my passport. I then resign with my current airline but as per any other job, a notice period needs to be given. Which in my case is 4 weeks. Now, due to the nature of my job I will still be required to enter the US with my C1/D during my notice period. Will this be an issue? Will I still be allowed to not activate my K1 until I say so to the officer or do I have to use it immediately on the first point of entry after the interview ( obviously before 6 months).

 

Any help will be highly appreciated as I am prepping for the next few weeks and months in terms of paper work and notices.

Hi!

 

I learnt through my readings here on VJ that once a CO approves one's K-1 Visa during Interview, he/she cancels any existing visa.

Congratulations to all approved couples! USCIS keep going on!

Does @Naes already see her approval? Would be funny if everybody is celebrating her approval before she knows it at all

I wonder if USCIS promised their employees a reward if they work on so many files I got the impression that there are a lot of approvals today (compared to the last few weeks) wooohooo

[ChuAni 1,191]

Big Congratulations to everyone that just heard from USCIS. 

 

NOA2s, The time has started ticking for NVC/Embassy.

RFEs, reply USCIS and get your sweet Approval.

I dont know if there are a lot or not. Since not vjers get approved, we only see in the app. I will believe it once the scans are out ☺️
