K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsJanuary I-129F filers
Talked to the USCIS today...just being curious and all, they told me that VSC is slightly behind...Today they are processing 1-3-2012.
So I guess the timeline should work in the next 10 days...Who knows... There are filers after me who just got approved but many before me without...Let's just leave it to lady luck and hope we all got it by EOM!!!

Which is why I am now in trouble since my NOA1 was Jan. 9th. Sent all of that stuff today thinking that maybe I could still hear something today or Monday and if not, they would inquire and push our case along....only to read this now that I should not have bothered. I figured that it couldn't hurt--since it SHOULDN'T, you know?! I am just so disgusted. And I can't stand thinking of going back to the US alone and leaving him here waiting b/c I never know when something could happen to him and at least if I am here closeby, I can help him in whatever way possible but from a distance, all I could do would be to send money. And since we have been in the same city for the duration of our relationship--other than my 3 short trips to visit family--I don't know what it would be like to try to have a long-distance relationship. He doesn't have a computer or internet and doesn't know enough about computers even to go to an internet cafe and communicate with me that way, so when I am gone, all we have are expensive cell phone calls....I hate this feeling of being totally helpless...there is no good option, no answers, no good possibilities of anything.....just frustration and fear b/c we are living in the most dangerous country in the world. :crying:

Beth no worries...everything is going to be beautiful...As far as congressional inquiry goes, it should not delay anything...they have a mandatory response time for congressional inquiries and that is not a month long process...trust me - my ex wife used to work for USCIS :thumbs: :thumbs:

you know that moment when we are going to get an email/text or when we check the web and it will say decision/post decision? I think I am going to pee my pants! :rofl:

No sh#t. During my daily routene of checking the wbsite 37 times a day, I've done it a few times when the screen flickers before it refreshes...I can only imagine what will it be when it happens for real...#2 at least :)
But hey...It's all good...the flood gates seem to be finaly open....

My timeline shifted today...+2 days...I gave up on this week and now I'm all about next week. Oh, and I almost forgot, I found out that coefficient of correlation of me checking USCIS website and average time for VSC to approve my application is 0...I was hoping to see inverse relationship:):) ah well, another one bites the dust :D

So I had a backlog myself and haven't been checking numbers since last week... It's nice to be nicely surprised :) looks like they are working on January 10 at the moment :)

Maybe that's what all of us should do...take a break from VJ and be nicely surprised :)
Well you are onto something :thumbs: ...Jan 10th is just a tick slower than what avg VSC is for the last 90 days...they are averaging 141 days between NOA1 and NOA2 (it used to be 136 days just a few weeks back)...so that puts us to 1-17-2012 +/- few days... :dance:

Word of the day -- Depressing
How do you spell it? Normally I spell it VSC

Can you give me an example in a sentence, Well yes :"Economic outlook looks fantabulous compared to the adjudication numbers VSC put out lately."

Diddly squat in Vermont today...and it's 16:00...

My timline says ....between May 27, 2012 and June 5, 2012. The way VSC is processing I'd say +10 days...So far it looks like another slow Monday(at least first half of the day) let's see how today will play out in the next couple of hours...I am ready to be over with this whole thing...sooo ready and this "snail like" :wacko: pace at VSC is just killing me Smalles :yes:

Sounds like 5 months for approval and 8 days to receive notice??? That would put me at 20th!!! Uggg...

could be...so another 10 days or so on top of the timeline... :( sucks

In lottery odds are known before you play, here - no telling....LOL...but yeah, I hear ya...any day now, any day now we will start posting those super exciting comments such as-got it, approved, moving to the next stage, etc. any day now, any day...
By the power vested in me by this website, I hereby declare Thursday to be fantabulous and super awesome day as well as the next few days to be triumphant and exciting days for all of us January filers!

My window of opportunity open on Monday so I am not expecting anything till then!It's just easier this way...

Ditto...It is just easier not to look at it...but they better open the flood gates at VSC....we are despeartly seeking approvals for Jan filers and we are on the cusp of something great...

Yes I'm not expecting anything this week. Next week is right on target. It would be nice just to have the average processing time at this point. I just hope we see some more activity at VSC soon. If things don't pick up by the end of this week or at the worst early next week, I hate to say it but things are seriously amiss.. CSC will surpass VSC quickly at this rate.


I hear ya...I lowered my expectations too, yet I keep doing the math and all kinds of stats to justify my hoping...
My gut tells me it's around the corner but every day that it does not happen is just painful...but the sun also rises and "Dum Spiro, Spero"

Well it looks like VSC had slowed down a bit in the last 3 months...

Avg Days from NOA1 to NOA2

CSC : All Time AVG 112 days ; last 12 months 132 days ; Last 6 months 152 days and last 90 days 146 days on average to NOA2
VSC : All Time AVG 110 days ; last 12 months 133 days ; Last 6 months 135 days and last 90 days 139 days on average to NOA2



Sooooo...that mean nobody before Jan 10th should expect anything yet....in other words we are still on track...it is just frustrating to wait when we are so close.

:) good times ahed of us...y'all see :)

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsJanuary I-129F filers

I won't be disappointed unless things continue at this pace on Thursday and Friday. I expected today to be a little slow and tomorrow hopefully an improvement. I'm sure either people took an extra day of vacation. Or they've returned to work and are still mentally on vacation...ha


don't loose hope, I've just found one approval from today for January 3! and I just started checking the numbers... will keep you updated :) they are working people! That's a good sign :)



Ahhhh..you people are keeping my hopes up and for that i thank you...first round on me when we get together :)

I am royally pissed now :angry: Maybe i was expecting too much but zero...nothing...zilch...zip...I was dreaming of a slew of approvals, since last week was soooo miserable and now the holiday is behind us but NADA...Now I’m losing my mind (my patience is long gone) but I’m still holding onto hope…yikes....sucks to be me:(

Yeah we are totally up for Texas!

woooo Vegas wedding! We will be heading that direction to Yosemite Park and I was hoping this year before the snow kicks in but poor chances I think with no approval in our pockets yet :(


Hey now!! you are just few days after me...soooo, absolutely Yosemite before snow...unless you think it will snow in August ;)

I can see there's many of you from Texas area! what do you guys think about organizing a meet up after we are all in the USA and celebrating it together?I mean it would be 12+ h drive for us but who doesn't love road trips!? At the end of the day , we've been through it together my January friends :)

Doing little math/stats again....Looking at the last year data...there is about 10% chance you will get a RFE...so 1 in 10 not that bad...

Looks to me like a pure luck...well I was never too lucky (except for when I've met my fiance of course) so I've no hopes , all we really need is some patience which right now I'm lacking of...


I agree...I want to push my luck a bit :) I feel lucky...maybe i should go to Vegas....18...hmmm...hit me :)

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsJanuary I-129F filers

i don't mind it taking the full 5 months for approval when we've come this far, what i'm more worried about is getting to 5 months, or even past it, and THEN getting an RFE. that would suck soooooo much!


Couldn't agree more...a RFE would kill me....

Ok so an update for today from USCIS website:

January 4th:
2 x approvals
3 x RFE

January 5th:
2 x approvals

on VJ:
January 28th
1 x approval



Oh slowly but surely it is starting to pick up....to get 100 approvals for any given month(Nov,Oct...) it takes at least 35-40 days...so some 4-5 per business day...We are good!!! Halleluiah and Hell Yeah!!!

“The impatient may not always be wrong on issues, but they are almost always wrong in their attitudes.”

So true...lately I've been pissy, depressed, moody, grumpy you name it...But today, today I'm turning the page, as of today, I am waiting patiently ...because of impatience we were driven out of Paradise, because of impatience we cannot return...

Great weekend to all-Cheers!
