Waiting for a NOA2 from VSC for your I-129F?

[BYRON-LEIDY 0]

And the waiting continues!!!!!!!!!! each day is getting longer and longer!!! I have my fiance in Colombia getting all the police records and all the stuff she could do in the mean time together...as for me, just checking the USCIS site hourly to see if I even get a touch..i havent had one since May 30th!! .....Please VCS....pick up the pace for us!!!! Could it really be that they moved petitions from the other centers to Vermont and that is the cause for the delays...if so , does that mean that a petition coming from another center with let's say a date two weeks before mine, gets put in front of mine!!! .... ...My baby is pregnant and it's my first child...i want to be next to her through the pregnancy!!! She is only one month but that month seemed to fly by!!!!!!!!!

Byron-Leidy... will they ask for the police report in packet 3 and medical exam..etc? And is it ok to begin working on this before our petition is approved? I would like my fiancee to begin working on his paperwork but not sure when and what they will ask for or how recent the paperwork should be.

From what i have read, in Colombia, they ask for this stuff at inteview time. Packet 3 just asks for OF-169, DS-230, DS-156, DS-156k and I134...and a letter requesting an interview. The letter is not asked for but from my reading, its not bad to have.

The police report is valid for 1 year, so if you wan to get a jump on things it won't hurt to do so. It typically takes a while to obtain, so go for it. We have! We want to have everything ready so that the minute packet 3 is recieved we can turn right around and mail it back same day.

Well I just found out today that I used the wrong Birth date on my F129 witch makes her son 35 and not 15. This means her sone is 1 yr older than she is. I dont know what this will do know to my F129

I was thinking of calling but I dont think it will help. Wish me luck

be careful about this, its not true for every country...some countries have valid police certificates for one year, others for 6 months, and others for 3 months...i know, for example, that in italy a police certificate is only valid for 6 months...you need to check with the country from whom you are recieving the certificate

also, the packets vary by consulate as well...some consulates may have you mail in only some of the required documents, and bring others with you to the interview...others consulates may have you mail in every single document (including police certificates and everything) and bring nothing to the interview...some consulates have you mail nothing in and have you bring it all with you on interview day...this all depends...i know that in my packet 3, i will definitely need the police certificates, and i have to mail them in to the consulate

Thank you for the clarification.

Yeah, I think some don't require the I-134 until the Interview. Also, be careful about getting all your information really early, you wouldn't want your employment letter and stuff to be dated really far from the interview. I'm planning on gathering my I-134 materials only after I've received my NOA2. You should do a search on your particular consulate to see what is needed for Packet 3.

Guys,We had very hard time today ,after waiting for NOA2 for 100 days,today we got a mail from Homeland Security Department.We was told that we missed filing something in I129F,this was ridiculous.I checked it ,and my fiance checked,and so did his mom .Three of us checked before sent the packege and nothing seemed missing.And what was smelling even fishy is one of my friends ,the same thing happened to them last week,they also filed in vermont .when she told me that,i felt very soory to them and hopefully nothing like that would happen to us,unfortunately,it happened.#######!they did this to us.We didn't hire a lawer to deal with our k1 visa,but my friend did.And the lawer told them lately a lot of customers complain the same stuff happend to them.We are not suckers ,why the hell they gave us such a lame excuse to delay our case!!!!
