Thanks lady. DS-160 all done! On to ARCO

I noticed one of the reasons for ineligibility of a visa is "overstaying" on a previous visa. I assume this is on an American visa, and wouldn't they have seen this before NOA2? I am so curious as to some of these questions.. Thoughts @EllyNelly @DonAnn @Naes @BnK..I was filling out the DS-160 and realize all these questions except the 5 sections on security were already addressed in the actual petition. I know I should not worry at this point.. I am so overwhelmed at work and trying to ensure we get the police record requested, and medical scheduled..

I advice you to call NVC after a week of approval from USCIS 😊

Hi everyone, posting a little late but fantastic news.  We received word that our application has been approved on May 31  We waited 8 long months and now waiting for NVC to give us a case number and send to the embassy.  How long does NVC take to provide a case number?

Hello, fellow October filers! We got our NOA 1 on October 30, 2017. After 224 days, we finally have our NOA 2!🎉

 

I danced like crazy when I got the update, then immediately called my fiancé who just went to bed after getting off a 16hr-shift (he's a nurse).

 

ℹ Some information that we think might help others:

* We get movements on our case 3-4 days after calling the USCIS call center (prolly just coincidental as we only call when we think there should have already been some movements according to average processing time).

* We received an RFE on an item that we were absolutely sure we have answered (because we made a photocopy of the form we have sent) and not on an item we failed to answer.

* In replying to the RFE, we included a note explaining that we failed to answer another item and attached the updated page of the form (others advised us not to do this as it might cause further delay, but we have already sent out our reply when we got the info. We waited for 24 days from response to RFE received update to approval update change).

* We got our NOA 1 update first on the CaseTracker app and old website, then got an email and an update on the new website. Currently, we only have the NOA 2 update on the new website (we just randomly checked it and voila! So just keep checking both old and new websites).

 

Below is a screenshot of our timeline (according to new website).

 

Praying for all the couples who are still waiting for their NOA 2s. Keep the faith and stay strong. We will all surely be with our partners soon!❤

Lots of happy news over here today! Congrats to those of you who have received NOA2s recently and HUGE congrats to @Daniel P ! You've been such a rock star doing scans every day even though you were among the first to get NOA2. I truly appreciate your dedication to getting our Octofriends news and encouragement each day!
