APRIL 2023 K1 to NOA2 to NVC to EMBASSY

[Robert Frasher 39]

Thanks y'all.  I don't have the NVC# yet so I hope to get that soon.  I emailed the NVCResearch over the weekend.  My NOA2 is April 17.

Just an update - I received NVC case number via inquiry yesterday (7/17). Our NOA2 is 4/24. We already submitted the DS-160 form - it was detailed and a bit tedious, but we got through it! Hang in there … we’re moving forward slowly, but surely!

And just now I received the formal email that it is being shipped from the NVC to the Embassy! 👏 👏 👏

I also got the email that it is being shipped to the embassy.  I wonder how much longer we have to wait to schedule an interview?  Are there any estimates on how long it takes to wait and schedule an interview?  Trying to decide whether I should plan to see my fiance in Europe or something in September/October depending on the wait time.

Congratulations! You're in the home stretch now.

@Shane-Debby  What should my expectations be for the home stretch and wait time?  I'm not asking for specific timeline but just a ballpark estimate on each of the remaining steps.

 

Thanks!

Just got the news that our case has been forwarded to the embassy in Naples. Its going to be a few days/weeks before they receive it but we are on the way!

I also am curious if I will need to fill out I-134 or I-134A since my girlfriend was born in Venezuela.  She lives and works in Argentina so I am not sure about where to find that out.

Seems like a bunch of folks got their "sent to the embassy" mail today! Yay! Us too! Thinking of everyone else still waiting, we will all get there 🌈

NOA2: 31 March (we received it on the 3/4/23). After multiple enquiries we received a response on 30/6/23 from NVC-Research saying "we received but awaiting input". And now they've let us know its on its way to South Africa, hoping for a speedy turnaround to Joburg and to be with my babylove in Oct (or earlier)🤞🏽!

Form I-134A is the online version of the form. It is called the Online Request to be a Supporter and Declaration of Financial Support and can be found on the USCIS website. As indicated in the name, beneficiaries may not file Form I-134A on their own behalf. (Certain I-134 beneficiaries may submit the form on their own behalf.) USCIS is using the I-134A to facilitate larger humanitarian programs right now. Therefore, you may only file Form I-134A if you are agreeing to financially support a:

• Ukrainian or their immediate family member as part of Uniting for Ukraine; or
• Cuban, Haitian, Nicaraguan, or Venezuelan or their immediate family member as part of the Processes for Cubans, Haitians, Nicaraguans, and Venezuelans.

If you are agreeing to support a beneficiary seeking humanitarian parole who is not applying for parole under Uniting for Ukraine or the Process for Cubans, Haitians, Nicaraguans, and Venezuelans, you must file a paper Form I-134, Declaration of Financial Support, along with Form I-131, Application for Travel Document, through the appropriate Lockbox location.

@Robert Frasher Hello Robert. if its not to much trouble can you update your timeline/profile? Makes it easier to give better and more accurate help when we know your stats. For me, home stretch means my baby (Philippines) will be with me in another two or three months. Because once the embassy gets your case things start moving really fast.
