K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsAlien Registration Number

Petitions that start with SRC are the ones transferred from vermont to texas. The note saying "your Alien Registration Number was changed " means your petition is now in their system/records for processing. If you also signed up to the USCIS website to monitor your petition, your petition would be "touched" when the "last updated" date changed. This can simply mean your petition was scanned or moved to another box.



Our case went straight to the TSC no transfer at all I think ours was one of the first.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsPetition shipped to NVC, when can I call?
On November 8, 2013, we shipped this approved or re-affirmed case to the Department of State for visa processing. For more information, please contact them directly

So I got this via email and I know obviously what it is saying, but when can I call the nvc to get the case number? Should they have it by now? It's 2 weeks Monday since we where approved. Also all going well when do you think I could be with my fiancée. From the UK if that's required.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress Reportsdont want to wait another 4 or 5 months
You really have to be an adult about this, and not a love struck teenager yes there's a wait but it's not that long!! In that time you have a chance to say bye to your friends and family seize this chance and think your not only breaking your own heart but also your fiancées which is totally unfair just wait it out! You can't just fill that hole with another person you came this far just over come it do something daily talk to each other Skype with them we all have to.
I Skype with Jessica every night and I set an alarm at 4am every morning so I can tell her goodnight and sweet dreams.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresTimeline dates accuracy?

It depends on what is going on.
 
There's not a lot of data on Texas, so the timeline for them will vary rather widely.
 
California will be pretty accurate, but any disaster or sudden influx of petitions can cause delays.
 
My case was one of the transfers to Texas and I would check my timeline estimates every day and it was constantly changing.
 
The timelines take the estimated processing times from the USCIS website, the data from people's timelines filing the same petitions to the same service center, and calculate an average.
If for any reason people are not updating their timelines regularly, or the USCIS website is massively out of date, or any other extenuating circumstances it will not be accurate.
 
But for a general idea, just check it once a week and see if it changes drastically, but don't make ANY plans or purchase tickets until you have your visa in hand.
 
I personally would recommend a courthouse wedding to appease the 90 day visa requirement, and then plan your BIG wedding after. No one has to know it's not the legal ceremony, and there is less stress on you without that time crunch. smile.png















Oh we planned on a cheap courthouse wedding just to get the wedding done and be married and after that get the AOS going and have a bigger wedding



JessicacallumNot TellingUnited Kingdom2013-08-22 11:45:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresTimeline dates accuracy?

If you are talking about the predicted date given--it is an average so some are faster and some are slower.

A problem with Texas Service Center is many put that because they mail to a lockbox in Texas. That is only a receiving station in Texas, not the Texas Service Center. The NOA1 usually says Vermont or California as the actual service center. And when Vermont got way far behind they shipped out a load for Texas Service Center to work on, even though they normally don't do i-129Fs. Some changed their profile to TSC while others left it VSC. I would say yours being currently set at TSC is less accurate because of those issues.

As far as abandoned accounts, Capt Ewok the head admin/owner posted once that his prediction formula disregards out of date and timelines that appear abandoned. Periodically there is also a house cleaning also I believe.





Our case is being done through the Texas service center they have only just started doing them
Out receipt number begins with SRC followed by the file numbers, SRC is the Texas service center not the lock box. If you look on igors list you will find out that cases around our time are through Texas



JessicacallumNot TellingUnited Kingdom2013-08-22 09:18:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresTimeline dates accuracy?
Well I think something should be done about inactive accounts as I have looked through igors for just my service centre and there at least 20 accounts that havnt been logged into since June and before.
JessicacallumNot TellingUnited Kingdom2013-08-22 08:48:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresTimeline dates accuracy?
So I personally am going through the I-129f application for the k1 visa and I just have a question about the timelines I want to find out how accurate they really are.

I know they depend on people actually updating there timeline cause I presume people use it untill they get their good news and forget about this site that has helped them all through it and them updating there timeline will help others in the situation.

So can anybody verify these timlines are accurate with a tolerance or has anyboy experienced a better date or a significantly worse date.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresHow many pics to send with K1 packet in USCIS?
Aren't pictures only secondary proof thought the main proof was like the boarding pass the passport stamp the date in the boarding pass and flight initionaries thought that was the main stuff and Skype logs and etc. photos are just to support a stronger claim
JessicacallumNot TellingUnited Kingdom2013-09-04 09:36:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresHow many pics to send with K1 packet in USCIS?
We sent about 7 of us together, plus like boarding passes, flight initionaries few Skype logs tbh that's enough proof you clearly boarded the plane you clearly are in a picture together and you went back home you broke no rules you entered you met you left you proved it and oh yeah passport stamp I sent that too.
Don't worry if you covered them I'm sure you're fine I don't see what else anyway can do to prove they met. There's pictures I'd be happy with that and tickets that you came and left.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresIf there's any mistake in my G-325a, is it okay if my fiance' use white out and fill it in by hand for me?
Can't imagine so as it should be filled out by the petitioner and the benificary. We personally did ours over Skype together using the guides from this site is be safe and do it again better safe than sorry
Sorry to be the bearer of something you didn't want to hear but you'll just wait longer in the process stage may as well fix it now

Wait he knew he had a medical and yet it never occurred that drugs are illegal and of course will affect your chance of being accepted. Wow wish I was where you guys where I don't drugs don't smoke and don't drink now you have to wait another year. You're a very forgiving person if you're willing to wait another just to apply and then to go through the process again. Anyway good luck with all that

Well we know we're going to have to use a co sponsor but she wants her grandpa to do it as he makes more than her dad and will easily clearly the 125% will this be ok. I know the London embassy accepts 100% of the poverty guideline anyway just asking will the grandfather be ok.

It is fine. The date you see is the date by which the OMB has to review the form. All government forms have a regular review to comply with the Paperwork Reduction Act. It doesn't mean the form will even change after review.
