JULY 2023 I-129F K1 FILERS

[J&D1008 376]

Hello...Welcome!

 

For those who have just filed your I-129f application with USCIS, this thread has been created for your needs and for you to be with others experiencing different aspects of this journey. This is a place to ask questions and to share experiences. All are here to learn together.

 

Stay patient because this is a long process currently running 12-16 months for your NOA2 or petition approval by USCIS (first stage). Then your petition will be sent to NVC which runs about 6-8 weeks processing (second stage) and finally your interview at the embassy (third stage).  Also, do not compare yourself to others....Some will receive NOA-2 faster than others, some will be stuck at NVC for longer and then finally some will receive interviews fairly quickly at embassy. STAY PATIENT! 

 

Please create the timeline in your profile. Also note that USCIS goes by "Received date" :

 

Example

I-129 F Sent - July 3, 2023

I-129 F Received - July 7, 2023 (NOA-1) 

I-129 F - Notice Date - June 10, 2023

 

In this example your NOA-1 should be June 7. This will help you fill out your timeline properly.

Hi everyone,

Did no one file the I-129F in July?  I just mailed mine today and was excited to post my celebration about finishing that very complex and time consuming packet. Haha. Yay for me 😁🎉

 

Also I don’t see a topic here yet for August 2023.

 

take care

I've been waiting for an August 2023 topic to pop up.

I don’t understand why people aren’t using this site anymore. It is so much better than a FB group. There are such great resources here.  Everyone is so helpful and knowledgeable.
