RFE Feb 08

Replied with additional evidence requested Feb 08 which they recieved Feb 12. No updates on both old and new websites since receiving initial application dated August 30. 

 

March 18 NOA2 approved 🎈🎉

 

So over 5 weeks for RFE to be approved. It is still not updated on the website, I called to inquire at week 2 as it did not even state they recieved the evidence. I was told it is up to the person looking after your case if they want to update anything on the website. To me it is pointless having the website then; maybe they would not have such a backlog of calls if they actually updated the websites 🤭.

Congrats!  And if it's true that is' up to the discretion (or memory) of the USCIS officer whether to update the system for the website, that is crazy; should be standard/required practice.

I agree with you totally although my account did show they received my three out of processing inquiries it never showed anything else not even my approval. When I finally realized not to put so much stock in the website things got better for me during my waiting time. Really causes people a great deal more stress when they are looking at that site for updates. But on another note some folks swear by the site and they have received constant updates and approval notices from it. It works for some yet others it does not. I guess that would be the reason some adjudicators are better than others when it comes to updating their cases online. Congrats on your approval btw!!!!!

And now you and others should understand why I and the embassy state not to book wedding plans or airline tickets before the Visa is in hand. Just saying.

Hello fellow August filers I only posted on this site once when I was waiting for NOA2

 I just got back from my fiancee's country to accompany her for the interview (ten months apart this was a good excuse to go to see her even if it was just for a short time), it was approved god is great.

Being long distance from each other and being relationship is so hard, saddening, and this process really tested my nerves. I just know it's all been worth it, I just wish the process was shorter.

I pray everyone gets approved. God bless and stay strong

Congrats! Where did the interview take place? I get told not to take my fiance to the interview as that would cause too many questions asked by the visa officer. How did the interview go?

it took place in Manila, I say many petitioners accompany there fiance(e)'s there but that was about it just to accompany them. It went well, she just answered the questions honestly and kept her answers simple

. I don't know the about situation where you will get interviewed if they allow?

 

There is a post about visiting during the process maybe you will get answers from here

I went with my wife to her interview and the CO greeted me stated they like when the petitioner comes to the interview.  Then he ask me to take a seat in the waiting area and if he needed me he would call me up. 10 min she was done with an approval for her and my two step children and I was never part of the interview.
