When you sent the I129F form, Did you also  have to send all of the documents you had already sent with the form I130? Like the marriage certificate and the proof of a bonafide marriage

I sent everything it asked for but it was just photocopies, not originals.

Hi everyone. This process certainly teaches you patience! I’m British living in UK and my husband is a USC living in US. We sent in the I-130 8th March, got the NOA1 the same day with Nebraska SC. We sent in the I-129F in July. We have watched the I-130 countdown come and go but are still optimistic we’ll get the NOA2 soon! 🙌🏼

 

Best wishes to everyone that's waiting 🙏🏼❤️

Our expedite request was approved by the US Embassy in Tunisia yesterday.  The file has moved from NVC to the Embassy and we're just waiting to hear from NVC about our interview date.

Husband's interview is scheduled for 10/25 at the US Embassy in Tunis, Tunisia 🇹🇳👏🏼🥰

Updated the mailing address yesterday due to a move, my estimate now shows 7 months after showing “taking longer than expected” for a couple of months.. I do hope this is not accurate..

Got our approval notice in the documents tab today!

Just checked our documents tab and we applied on 1March and were approved on 1 Feb! 

Good luck to everyone waiting! Hopefully the beginning of the end has begun. 

The information on this site has been absolutely invaluable, especially crazycat. Thank you to everyone who participates.

Hi March 23 filers, just a quick update - we got our NOA2 by email to the petitioner today! It was approved 13th Feb so 3 days ago. We originally filed 8th March 23. As beneficiary I haven’t had an email just yet but just SO happy that the long wait is over. I hope you all are having/have had your NOA2’s as well. 🫶🏼❤️🙌

We applied on March 9th. Couple of months ago said that it was taking longer than expected and as of yesterday it says 3 months. This process is so cruel…..congratulations to all who got approved!

I'm on pins and needles. March 17

Longer than expected.

 

[Benny1337 18]

Just got the email from NVC saying we’re DQ’d, onto the next step now! 
 

Good luck to everyone else still waiting, I hope things will be set in motion for you soon!

Hello. I married my husband on 3/1/23 in his home country of Tunisia. We filed our i-130 a few weeks later with a PD of 3/23/23. The i-129 was sent the following day with an NOA of 4/1/23. My receipt said Nebraska but I asked Emma and I'm actually in Texas. 

Hi there! How did you find out your service centre?
