7 months later and we have our petition approved. I now miss waiting as its getting closer to me having to actually do something in the UK.

It has just been approved as of the 1st August. Are there any things i can pre prepare before the national visa centre pass to the embassy in the UK?

Get the I-134 and backup docs from the USC.

Look ahead to AOS and make sure you have what you need before leaving the UK.

Why don't you do your own research or retain an attorney to whom you can ask these questions then, given the people on this forum are so helpful?

Noorah101

Nope, just as helpful as we've ever been!

Hmmm Im guessing my wording did not come across as..... you were always really helpful.... and that hasn't changed?

civilservant

Did you want a charming warm presence, or the information?

Your choice.

Stribs

I like this guy. Info it is.

I have nothing to add... except that I very much like the shoot-from-the-hip, no nonsense approach that people are starting to adopt. I approve! Pretty soon... I can retire!

Stribbs,

How long did the process of your application take you after ?

Stribs

Hey Cliff!

From my US fiancee sending of the I-129f (i think that's what it was called) to it being approved on the 1st August was just under 7 months. So happy that progress, even if a tiny step, has been made. It now says on the website there are further delays and if we haven't heard anything in 8 weeks to contact them. Gulp.

Hope all has gone well for you.
