Hey to all November filers! :) This is my first post on this site but my fiancee and I have been lurking on this site for a while now. Anyway just wanted to add that we too are now November filers. Even though we sent off our packet at the end of October they accepted it on November 6th. Now the long wait begins... ;)

Good luck to everyone else and godspeed! I pray that we'll all be with our loved ones soon! :)

I mailed our K1 on 10/31, VSC received on 11/1, and NOA dated 11/2.

We are just at the beginning of this wait, and I admit it is a little hard to keep upbeat about it all, esp. with all of the talk of the even slower processing times. It is an oddly helpless feeling not to be able to do anything but wait an unknown amount of time.

But wait we must. :)

So, good luck and a speedy trip to us all...

10/31/07 - Mailed I-129F to Vermont Service Center

11/01/07 - I-129F received at VSC

11/02/07 - NOA1 dated

02/17/08 - TOUCH! OMG OMG OMG PLZ PLZ PLZ

02/29/08 - NOA2! Really. Finally. can't...believe...

03/10/08 - NVC received

03/12/08 - NVC shipped to Embassy

03/14/08 - Embassy received petition

03/20/08 - Received Packet 3

04/01/08 - Faxed back Packet 3 checklist to embassy

04/11/08 - Received Packet 4

05/09/08 - Interview at Embassy

05/14/08 - Received Visa and passport visa DHL - WOW!

05/18/08 - Entered USA at Dallas

07/19/08 - Married the love of my life...

04/30/09 - Mailed AOS Paperwork. Finally!

05/26/09 - AOS RFE. :(

Now waiting for AOS...

You'll actually see it speed up for you. They're training new adjudicators and July is getting done, which is by far the biggest month.

All you need is a modest house in a modest neighborhood

In a modest town where honest people dwell

--July 22---------Sent I-129F packet

--July 27---------Petition received

--August 28------NOA1 issued

--August 31------Arrived in Terrace after lots of flight delays to spend Lindsay's birthday with her

--October 10-----Completed address change online

--January 25-----NOA2 received via USCIS Case Status Online

Our I-129f was just recieved by the CSC today (Yay!), but we're not sure if we would be November or December filers, since this is the last day of November? :unsure:

Either way, good luck to everyone who has filed this month (or any other month for that matter)! I hope everything goes smoothly and quickly for everyone ^_^

I used USPS overnight delivery and was able to sign up online for email confirmation of delivery. Just needed the tracking # off of the receipt.

ETA: Good luck on your journey!
