Hehe! Isn't that just the nerdiest thing you've ever seen? I really want it, and the sad thing is that I'd never even use it.

Like to conduct a little poll and keep me positive?

Any August fillers hoping to get NOA2 by January. I am in it and sitting with big hope.

When I say August fillers, I mean someone who sent their 129F in the month of August. That way, there is no confusion with received date, notice date and so on. Thanks to Mox, who gave the idea.

Yes, I'm an August filer. Yes, I hope we can get our approval in January. But........I don't think it's going to happen.

I was hoping to get the NOA2 by January.

I filled on 8/23/2007, however by reading that article of a million pettitions in July to beat the filling fee increase and CSC moving very slowly the last two weeks, I think I will be lucky to even get the NOA2 by February.

The last NOA2s that were approved from CSC were June and Mid July fillers. I only heard of 1 or 2 AUG fillers from CSC that received their NOA2s.

Also, I received my NOA1 in early OCT.

Until now, I haven't even gotten a single touch.

Almost waiting for 5 months now. Still waiting patiently and hanging in there with the rest of the AUG fillers from CSC.

I know I'm not alone in this.

Lastly, I keep noticing on the based timeline data date has been moving forward day by day.

It has moved from as early as January 20th to now as early as February 25, 2008*. #######!!

It makes me mad that VSC guys are getting approved at 3-4 months approval rate while CSC is sitting on their pant. Should we call CSC and ask them what is CSC missing?

Guys: Mox, and others: while I am waiting NOA2, is there anything I can do so that I am ready when NOA2 comes.

Basically, I want to avoid a situation where I would wish I had done done something before while I was waiting for NOA2. I am thinking for items like affidavit of support and things like that.

For starters you can look at the K-1 guide under the section "What to send to your fiance(e) once the I-129F is approved (Receive NOA2)." Start getting all of your original documents together in one place and collecting the evidence that you're going to submit for proof of an ongoing relationship. Some of this will be incomplete, such as phone records, but at least get what you have so that when you go through it after getting your NOA2 you won't be trying to remember stuff. Also try to get in touch with people who have *recently* been through your consulate and see what recommendations they have. Visit the website for your consulate to see if they have information about what the beneficiary will have to bring to their interview. Start looking into what travel arrangements you'll have to make for your SO, but don't make any reservations. When you get the interview date you'll want all that info in one place so it's easy to make the arrangements.

Hope that gets you started!

Yes, affidavit is one of the things you could do. You could also collect your financial documents (tax transcripts, pay stubs, W-2s, bank statements), you don't need all of them, but enough to prove that you have sufficient income. Get a letter from your employer stating your position, annual salary, full or part time, and wether your position is indefinate of has a term limit.

Your fiancee could get a police report done. The medical is best done as close to the interview as possible, but it's also valid for 6 months, so could be done earlier. This all depends on the specifics of the consulate you are going through. Some of them send out and expect a return of packet 3 before the interview and that packet could have some specific requirements for the medical and police report and such. Make sure to find out these details before you do all this.

Others have said to get the employer letter closer to NOA2. Does anyone know how long this letter is "valid?" I'm sure they wouldn't take a letter that's, say, a year old, but what about 6 months old? I've been holding off asking my employer for this letter for just this reason, but the ####### retentive person in me wants to just get it done now so that it's one less thing I have to collect later.

Thanks a lot, Mox and IgorElina.

My fiancee has got her police certificate already. I am putting everything together.

How do you get tax transcript?

Appreciate your help, guys.
