K1 blues :(
Any other K1er's out there who are loosing there mind?
I swear I must check my case status at least 5-10 times a day in the faint hope I've recieved my 2nd NOA. But the more I read on this forum the more I look negatively on the whole process and our chances of an approval before our wedding. God I just feel like i'm loosing it! As if the living away from your loved one isn't hard enough that now the chances of being approved within the already extremely long waiting period is becoming less of a reality! You would think 1/2 a year is more than enough time to process a bloody k1 application! The other problem I have is my conscience. I really want to be honest with my current employer and give them plenty of notice and time to find a replacement for me. But the reality is I can't because I need the money and i'm sure they'd let me go early if they knew i was leaving. This whole process is just so damn draining in everyway! Sorry for venting, but I feel the others here who are going through or have been through this process are the only ones who can relate to my situation. My family and friends try, but they really don't seem to understand how hard it is. The frustrating thing is if we chose to live together in Australia or England this process would of been a lot shorter..... |
Re: K1 blues :(
Hi James,
I wanted to take a moment just to tell you that it *will* get better, it *will* happen and it *is* worth it (I know that these are things you know intellectually but your heart is so lifeless being without her that it's hard to remember sometimes). Mr. P. and I had to wait almost three years total to be together because of prior marriages and the legal process involved in all that. We know what it's like to be apart and to hang up the phone with a huge sigh, knowing that we'll talk "tomorrow" and to leave one another in huge sobbing puddles at the airport here or there. It's horrible. But it does end. We've been through so much with the visa process and the accident right before his departure and throwing a wedding together at the last minute, and even though he's been my husband for almost two weeks, I still find it hard to believe when he brings me coffee in the morning and he's standing there at the door waiting when I get home from work. We are living proof that it does happen. Hang in there James, you are so close now. We had a first NOA with NSC of May 29 and were approved on November 25---181 days. You're so close, and it *will* get better. Hugs to you and that lovely girl of yours, ~SecretGarden |
Re: K1 blues :(
I know what it's like to check the status online all the time, I was starting to think I was getting obsessive compulsive with it LOL :D I wish the timelines in Nebraska weren't so long, that's such a long time to wait. About work, isn't 2 or 3 weeks standard notice for resignation? If you really think they'd let you go if they knew...then don't feel so bad about the 2 weeks notice ;)
Good luck to you and your fiancee, I hope you get your approval soon! :D Juliet |
Re: K1 blues :(
Hi McJimbo,
Believe me, I know the process is long. I haven't seen my fiance for an entire year! That was our choice, though...to wait until his interview to see each other. Trouble is, we never thought his interview would be taking this long to happen! But, it is slowly progressing and we know the result will be worth it. So hang in there (you probably get sick of hearing that...lol), take it day by day, and eventually you'll see that approval notice! :) As for your job, think of it this way. If you wanted to change jobs, you wouldn't go tell your employer "I'm going to start job hunting now, ok?" You would just job hunt and when you found something else you'd give proper notice. This is the same thing. You are working on something else in your life, meanwhile working at your job. When you know something definite, you can let the employer had adequate notice. That's what I would do. Best Wishes! Rene |

I still find it hard to believe when he brings me coffee in the morning and he's standing there at the door waiting when I get home from work. |

Ignore it, stay positive, we've all been through it and by the time you get your interview you'll be happy and excited, but scared as hell and you'll suddenly realise as boring and horrible as the waiting was - at least it wasnt the moment of truth when everything builds up to one day and u have to have 15 heart attacks a day over stuff you might need or have forgotten ;) you have that to come hehe |
Re: K1 blues :(
Hey Mate
It does get better honestly.... Last time I saw my g/f and my son was december the 27th, and I dont fly into the usa until 2nd of April, I was granted the K1 in November, its hard.. only reason Ive left it so long is that I work for a small company and one of the ladies were having a lot of time off with breast cancer, so I said I would cover for her until she gets back, well shes back in a few weeks, then Im off. It took us about 8 months from start to finish for the visas. Hang in there buddy, it does happen in the end. |

Re: K1 blues :(
Thanks a lot for all your kind words!
I guess i just need that reassurance sometime that something is actually happening. It just you have to go so long before hearing anything it just makes you wonder whether anything will happen at all. I'm so glad I found this forum and you great bunch of people! Honestly without your advice and reassurance i'd probably be in a looney bin by now :) |

Re: K1 blues :(
Hey there Mcjimbo, you are right, it is bloody hard. We have all gone
through it. But hang in there, Im sure if youve waited six months already then you must be somewhere near the finishing post. As for handing in notice early, it was a dilemma I churned over too. I gave 2 months eventually because I was a key member of staff. However, it doesnt sound like you get much loyalty from your company if you are worried that they will let you go early. I think that works both ways, don't you? Give them what is required in your contract and nothing more. regards, Jacqueline "mcjimbo" <[email protected]> wrote in message news:[email protected]... > Any other K1er's out there who are loosing there mind? > I swear I must > check my case status at least 5-10 times a day in the faint hope I've > recieved my 2nd NOA.

Honestly without your advice and reassurance i'd probably be in a looney bin by now :) Scott (the UKC) and I totally understand what you are going thru, as does everyone else here. I know you've mentioned before that if you didn't receive NOA2 by a certain time, you would consider something a little more drastic. Please don't do anything that would jeopardize your K1 application. If you don't get approved in time, you can always change the wedding date. I know it's a hassle to do so, as well as depressing, but it's not worth you lying to get into the country, and then possibly not being able to adjust status. Not to mention, the USCIS could kick you out, and then you have to apply for a K3 and be separated even longer. Just try to have a little more patience, and remember the old cliche "Good things come to those who wait." Cheers, Jamie |
Re: K1 blues :(
Like the others I just want to chime in to say that: I know what you're going through! When I was waiting for my NOA2 I had some serious depressions. It was even harder because my school ended in June and I didn't have anything to do all day except wait for that damn paper. I woke up in the morning to check the mail in hope of a letter only to find nothing and having a whole day ahead of me with nothing to do but wait for it to be over so I could go to bed and wake up again to hope for the letter. It was really killing me...but it came eventually.
You are close to 6 months...the letter HAS to come any day now. I know you probably tell yourself every day that it will come any day, but at this point in time it seriously should come any day. I don't think you will have to postpone the wedding or anything. I seriously believe that you will get something soon and that your timeline will pretty much go as planned. Like the others said, hang in there, and keep yourself busy because it will make the time go by faster. Before you know it you will have that letter and you will be saying good-bye's to your family and friends and in the arms of your love. You can do it!! :) |
Re: K1 blues :(
I feel your pain James. I mailed my application to Texas in November. Got my
NOA1 reciept from Missouri. Had to get a Congressional aid inquire for me to get any answers out of Missouri. Missouri sends my app back to Texas. Now I dont know who has my application. And yes Im very frustrated, tired and drained. I guess this is the old USCIS test of will. If you can hang on and endure there torture then the relationship just might work.

Who cares about old cases anyway? Crunch the most recent number if you need to do something, as it’s the newest cases that indicate where they are as far as processing cases is concerned. Or better yet, just look at the reports the service centers provide to you and chill out!

Re: K1 blues :(
Originally posted by Ankh I'll be honest with ya mate, i didnt understand a word of that. If so, what I'm talking about is some who go to the USCIS case status checking page and input sequential case numbers to see which numbers relate to K-1 petitions. They then compile their data and post reports about the progress or lack of progress of a given service center on what appears to be pending K-1 cases. And some of their reports show that there are very old cases waiting for approval, however your story confirms what I've been telling them all along… that sometimes the system will indicate a case is still pending when it has actually been approved long ago (and therefore their "reports" are based on faulty data). I absolutely don't have anything against these "number cruchers". They are not wasting anybody's time (except their own) or slowing down anybody's case (slowing down a service center) by doing this and they can provide some insight on where a given service center is at as far as processing is concerned. I'm just saying that the online system quite often does not reflect approvals, so focusing on "older" case that seem to be still pending (according to the online system) seems to me to be a waste of time. And since this information is suspect, why whip everybody up into a tizzy about an old case that has probably already been approved? Focusing on the more current cases makes much more sense to me. |

I find it quite strange that the case status of mine wasnt updated but it doesnt bother me, People should just be calm and sit out the waiting time then something will happen. THOUGH saying that - my status WAS updated last October from 150/180 days to "15/30" remaining...for one day...one day i just happened to check on, so i got all happy and excited and - then it changed back and didnt ever change again lol. |

Re: K1 blues :(
Hi James,
I'm sorry to hear you're struggling ... I'm sending lots of good vibes your and Angie's way for that NOA2 to show up very very soon!! And when it does, believe me, it gets easier! Suddenly, after you reach that hurdle, you find yourself with a new-found faith in the system and waiting a week or two for your case to move through each of the next series of steps seems like a piece of cake! I feel like I've been updating our timeline every week with the progress that's been made since our K3 petition approval. Another thing I've found to be a great relief is that we, like you, are going through the consulate in London and *they respond to e-mail*!. If you have a question you can write to them and they actually write back so you feel much less like a number in a huge system. I wish you the best and hope that approval arrives any day now!!! Take care, Jackie :) P.S. How was Barcelona??!! :) |

Wow this thread really got large :)
I'm glad that we can have our little online group therapy sessions :). I've always believed talking things through is the best way to deal with them. Thanks again for all your encouragement. Part of me knows we'll be approved, but theres just that sceptical part of me that doesn't! Its like i've got an angel on one shoulder and a devil on the other, maybe i need to start focussing on the good vibes as opposed to the bad. Thats Hyper and Jackie for your words. I just can't wait until till this whole process is over and i'm posting my updated timeline, and interview experience on here. Fingers crossed! James |

Originally posted by Steffi Actually I'm going to have to disagree with that, BUT I'm more than likely an acception to that.

As I'd been living a "normal" life as an "American" girl it was pretty weird having to get permission to get married to the guy so that I could stay in the country that I considered my home. It has all been quite weird indeed. :) That sounds like a good episode for The Twilight Zone. That time/space warp sure gets in the way of immigration, doesn't it?! LOL Rene |

(very, very possible) No, not at all (AFAIK). The "big deal" about the POE involves EAD (Employment Authorization Document). SOME POEs (Port of Entry), and most recently ONLY JFK on any kind of regular basis, are giving a passport stamp for K1 entrants, which means you don't have to then apply for EAD which can take several weeks to a couple of months (and once you get married, the temporary EAD expires). SO - IF you need to work ASAP, you WILL want to carefully consider your POE - you just MIGHT get EAD without any additional hassle, and be able to work the same day, rather than a month later... If you're just going to take it easy until the wedding (my plan), then POE doesn't really matter. That's as far as I understand it. I could be wrong. Mattias |

I don't think that my company would get rid of me if I told them what I was up to, but I do think that I'd struggle to get any training out of them (not that I get much anyway). The way I ease my conscience is by thoroughly documenting everything that I do so that they can get by when I'm gone before they find a replacement :) Andy |
