I got an email notification today that our I-129F petition was approved today!!!! :dance:

I wasn't worrued but, you just never know. The problem I now face is the fact that I am so happy and pumped up, how do I concentrate for my test tonight? :dance::dance::dance:

One more thing, I just don't understand this process. What does this approval mean? It just means that she needs approved at the interview. Since it was approved, the interview should not be difficult unless they find evidence that should overturn this approval. This doesn't seem the case however. It seems that this approval means nothing to them at all. We have nothing to hide, but after reading about the consulate in Ho Chi Minh City, I worry to much.

AKKKKKKKKKKKK MIKE! thats great news!!!! I sent mine on the 9th of March 2006... well officially they have received it on the 10th... but say that they have received it on the 16th... too many dates to remember!!!! now i wish my application process would be just as fast as yours... pray for me pleaaaaaaase!!!!

Still waiting but COnGrRaTuLaTiOnS!!!! Youre one step closer! :D IM happy for you and your S/O

Perhaps what it means is that your petition is pretty much clear of any questionable motives... paperwork wise i guess... so next step is the actual interview, and i guess thats when they talk to your fiancee and verify personally that all information are true and genuine... I have seen some situations in the news where people actually pay other US Citizens to bring them over here... which really sucks because on the otherhand, people like us who are doing this for no other reason but love get to pay the price as well...

siiiiiiigh ...

keeping my fingers crossed

Thanks, everyone on here is like family. I do know there are cases of fraud, and that makes everything harder for people like us. Thanks again everyone, now the long wait begins!!!

I wish that was the case, but I am going to be hanging tight here while she interviews. I have read that it is best if I stay here, just in case I need to supply her with that they request that we may have forgotten. I would love to be there for her, but I rather be able to get her these papers as quickly as possible if she needs them. Also the fact that who knows how long it will take them to get her the passport afterwards. It is so tough though not to be with her at that time.

I also was a no show at my wife's interview. It was negative reasoning but it turned out to be true. For months I had planned on being there until I saw how many people were getting ARs from HCMC. As disappointed as you'd be if your fiance got a blue slip, imagine how horrible it would be to fly back alone-again-after you had all your hopes pinned on this being the last separation. I saw it happen a few times and it would have happened to me too. There was no way I could hang out in Vietnam for a month.

Wow that was fast - I can't believe it! Anyway, as already posted, the NOA2 is approval of your petition which doesn't mean a whole lot (although now you know that you will not have to submit additional evidence or any other things that will slow down the whole process). The true test is at the consulate and the interview. Good Luck.

Waiver approved after 10 months. Did NOT use a lawyer
