Another question if you can orient me. What should be the petitioner's annual financial statement so as not to have a co-sponsor?

I thought I start this new thread for those who are receiving their NOA2's and waiting on NVC. Good luck.

Got the final answer today, we're finally approved! It's been such a long journey, can't believe we're finally here 🎉   FYI: The medical hadn't been received by the embassy before my intervi

That is pretty odd, Have you verified on the uscis and does it show as approved? If that is the case please call the USCIS- I got mine within 3 days of approval.

Have just booked my medical for middle of October - London K1ers - there were earlier dates available, so doesn't seem that there is a long wait list. Hopefully by this time I'll have been able to book my interview too.

Has anyone heard about your case being in ready status, but when you show up for the interview they say you need to reschedule because they haven't received the petition yet?  This happened to a friend of my fiancee...

Just called NVC and got to talk to someone within 5 minutes. I was asked for my case number and approval date (Aug 24 NOA2). She said the case is not currently at the NVC and it said it could take up to 6 weeks for them to receive it (though I have read that this is just the standard thing they say). Will keep trying to call and get a case number this week.  Hopefully this information is helpful for someone.

It can happen but rarely. Just reschedule, no harm done. Doesn't effect the visa approval one way or another.

OK, thanks!  We are just nervous as we don't want that to happen to us since she doesn't live in Manila and I live in the USA and flights are expensive. Ours interview is 19 days after our status has changed to ready so we should be ok I think.
