The first NOA should have a number on it, it is called the "receipt number" on the NOA.  Try the telephone number (in the evening unless you want to wait all day) as suggested in the post below and there may be some prompts to get you a computerized status of the K-1 as well as their estimated processing time.  I would avoid the Congressman route.  I just went that way when the INS messed up his green card with the wrong birthday and it creates more problems than it solves.  (Vermont may be fast on the K-1, but it's hell after that!)  If you can't get through via phone,  Check the estimated processing time and, if that has passed, send a letter attaching a copy of the first NOA to check status.

There's no way to check anything between the time you submit and then receive the (second - the real one) noa.

However...    Your fiancee is from UR I think and the best you can do is check it online after the INS approves your petition and then sends it to Warsaw.

I'm sure you know of this link by now, but for everyone else that doesn't: (Interview Dates)

For Russian Fiance' Visa Interview Dates:

I think that the above link name will change over time so don't rely on it after todays post.

There is a phone number (or used to be) that you could call to check your status of your petition, it was an interactive recorded message...you punched in your number that you have on your NOA-1 and wait to hear another recorded message...pending or approved. If I can remember (it has been over a year now) the phone number was on one of the MOB sites, maybe someone can help you out with the current info...

Now I remember...the number was on the back of the NOA#1, at least it used to be!

Try keeping busy by cleaning and repainting the house or working a lot of overtime.  There's nothing that you can do now but hope, pray, and WAIT. Hang in there. I know that it seems like it is killing you but noone has died doing this yet. This is, without a doubt, the hardest part of the whole process.

No, I'm not dying or anything, I just wondered if there was any way at all to check on the status, that's all..

I know of some guys that have hired lawyers or had elected representatives intervene on their behalf to find out what was happening with their cases but what do you think happens if someone has to run down your file?

A. It gets put back (on the bottom of the stack).
B. It gets left on someones desk.
C. It gets "lost".
