    Honestly it just depends. I have seen on FB and know personally of ppl who filed for AOS end of 2021 and early 2022 still waiting for GC. Some taking 3-6 months while others waiting 12-15 months. Some get the EAD card really fast and then the GC takes forever. 

    It all depends you are right, i had a friend he went through the AOS in 3 months while another took6 months for the residence to arrive.

    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 15-17 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 - January 2, 2023

    I-129 F Received - January 6, 2023 (NOA-1) 

    I-129 F - Notice Date - January 10, 2023

     

    In this example your NOA-1 should be January 6. This will help you fill out your timeline properly.

    Sure Anna, I definitely appreciate the feedback!

     

    However, when deciding between filing NOW for a fiancée visa or wait until after a wedding (in her country), which would be July or August of this year at the earliest, to file the spousal visa, this made more sense to us. 

     

    So in our case, we are saving time, which is very important to us as far as being together ASAP goes... and it will also be less expensive for us to get married in the US, so I guess that savings will help offset the new AOS fees that you are talking about...

    I thought the k1 was faster and it came to be about the same or a little bit less timely, It was faster before 2020. The cost of a wedding here in the US is less, but we still planning for a wedding in local country.

    Yep from everything I see on the forums and also USCIS web site

     

    But K-1 was our best route because we will be together sooner.  We could file now, and then worry about AOS once she arrives here in the US. Yes she won't be able to work or travel (internationally), but at least we'd be together to wait it out.

    Thats what we were thinking too, We want to be together even if she can't travell or work but at least we are together and AOs can take its time.
