Title: hi Ray
Post by: gennye406 on December 19, 2004, 05:00:00 AM
hello Ray and Everyone,

finally made it on here... is this a "for the boyz only"?

On my I-485, got a RFE, asking me to submit a copy of the I-797 NOA 2 of the I-129F) which of all wonders, we couldn't find. However, we found a letter from the State Dept. stating "case no. ... that papers will be forwarded to MNL emb." Will that suffice?  Is it a big deal not to have that NOA2. Didn't that come from INS? Do we need to request from INS  a copy?

Thanks!
Gene

It's always great to have a new viewpoint here, especially a feminine one.

Hi Gene,

Pay no attention to Ray - my wife Sally doesn't think I'm weird although she suspects that I may be a Kapre.  She keeps asking me to cut down the big tree in the backyard but I won't do it.  Then when she finds a cigar butt under it she looks at me sideways with one brow raised.  It's a good thing I don't have a beard because then she'd be totally convinced!

We're up north, two towns west of Lowell.  Sally has a friend who plans parties a couple of times a year with Filipinas married to Americans, with a lot of filipino food.  Just let us know if you'd like to join in next time.

Jim

Hello Jimbo!

The KAPRE was funny...

Sure, we would like to meet with you & the other filipinas. We're in Framingham -- off rte. 9. Perhaps, we can exchange phone numbers by email?

I’m glad to see that you finally got registered. Welcome to Planet-Love!

No, this isn’t a "for the boyz only" forum (LOL). We have a bunch of Filipinas and several American ladies who sometimes post here but I guess they are all out shopping now. We have at least one nice lady (Sally) who also lives in your area with her weird husband Jimbo :-), so please feel free to join in any of the discussions or even the silly fights we have if you want.

Sorry to hear about your RFE. Yes, the I-797 Approval Notice is a required document that must be submitted with your AOS petition. The State Dept letter from NVC is different and I don’t think they will accept it. I don’t know why the NOA-2 is so important to them, but they do seem to insist that you include it.

You were on a fiancée visa, correct? Do you guys remember receiving the NOA-2 when your petition was approved? Did your asawa send the original or a copy to you for your interview maybe? If you can find just a Xerox copy then that’s all you need. I would keep looking until you find it because that’s not the sort of thing you tend to throw away. It’s on special 8-1/2 x 11paper with “THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA” printed across the top. If you need to get a replacement from CIS, it will cost you and it may take a while to get it. You can file Form I-824 with the service center that processed your original petition to request a duplicate approval notice. If you filed at Vermont, it looks like they are taking 3-4 months to process an I-824. The filing fee is $195 so that’s why I suggested you tear up the house looking for it. If you find it, be sure to make more copies!

Good luck,

Ray

Thanks Ray for the nice welcome!
I would love to meet with Sally + Jimbo. (haha, @weird -- well, aren't husbands NORMALLY weird????)  
we try to turn the file cabs upside down, maybe he NOA2 will resurface.
have a nice weekend!
