Hello guys,

 

So I am getting very anxious because I was lurking April's filers and noticed that they got all excited because they got two approvals for April, they got April 2nd and April 6th. So I guess our wait is coming to an end...

Great news!! How do you check the approvals? We are getting there so so soooooooooooooooon 😁😁😁😁😁

You can see the most recent approvals (of people who posted here and updated their timelines) here https://www.visajourney.com/timeline/monthly_filers.php

But I think mostly it's because people are reading the threads for earlier months.

Both those approvals had received dates end of March. Bear that in mind. They process based on receipt date. 

That said Katie’s approval was 2 weeks ahead of her projected date in here 😊

Yes I saw that two people in (late March received date) early April got their NOA2s! That means we are right behind them October is only a day or two away. Looking forward to some of us announcing the good news here in our group. I hope we are many that can share that early good news. Getting close May ers real close!!!!!

I don't know how to respond to your statement so I'll just take it as a good omen. Of course you are an April filer so you are on deck. You got to have some faith at least a little. I'm hoping that you are screaming  "WE GOT APPROVED" very soon!

Has everyone requested and received their tax transcripts yet? Might be a good idea to request them now from IRS. If you did not prepare  your K1 packet in duplicate at minimum I would suggest  you get something together to send to ur beneficiary,  no it's not required but we want to give our beneficiaries every edge during their interviews. Just my opinion and not fact. I prepared my application in triplicate,  yes tons of work, but the work is nothing  compared to a lost or misplaced  K1 application. My beneficiary will know all I submitted, again I wanted to give her/us every chance to succeed.

Oh and don't forget your continued interest  letter of intent to marry,  simply the updated letter of intent to marry with a fresh newer date.

I requested my transcripts for the last two years and printed them at home. I have the affidavit of support that i filled out as a guide.. just need a letter from my employer as it’s gets closer and maybe a bank letter stating my deposits!!! Lol I heard my embassy doesn’t even look at the affidavit of support but better to have it just in case. With my luck they’d ask me for it and I’d be sol

Me too and you can be sure I’ll tell you when we do get approved. Then the harder stuff starts 😂 won’t tell you what percentage of petitions get denied after noa2 it’s stressed my fiancé this morning.

Yes that's true same for my embassy but like you said better prepared. That's my luck too they will ask.

I'm not normally a guy for holidays, that's something I am going to have to work on since my fiancee is very big on the Christmas season, but I was just thinking how nice it would be if we ALL had our NOA2 approvals by Christmas! Wouldn't that be nice?

Hi everyone, I just wanted to introduce myself to you May filers.  I sent my packet near the end of April.  They received it on April 28, but my notice date was May 1.  So I'm one of those in-betweeners.  I've been following the April thread because that is when I sent it, but the reality is that most of those folks will probably be approved before me.  So I figured it would be a good idea to get to know you, too.  Since we will be waiting together.  I was really good about staying away from this website for the past several months.  But now that April filers are starting to get approved, I find myself checking it every day to see what dates are getting approved.  The anxiety and anticipation are overwhelming if you allow it.  In a world full of instant gratification and overnight shipping...waiting for six to nine months for something so important and major tests the limits of everyone's patience.  I wish you all luck and blessings in your future lives together and I look forward to sharing this experience with all of you!
