IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsApril 2013 I-130 Filers
So I tried calling uscis about my rfe but apparently only the applicant (petitioner) is eligible for information concerning the visa...I'm the beneficiary so they won't talk to me or give me any info?

Hope so too, but shouldn't be. We even put in a copy of the visa I had for when I used to live in the USA because of my fathers job, and we met in person in the states... We will see, of course my husband is stressed from work and the gov shutdown (af reserve) so he won't try to call now...this thing is really putting a strain on our marriage :( crossing all fingers & TOES for you!!! You are such a great forum member with so much helpful insight! <3

Well, it looks like TSC is working today !  Its still 4pm over there. Maybe ours is on someones desk.
 
At least they are looking at your file.   Just curious.... did you put both birth certificates in your package ?  I read a while back  that some people are getting an RFE because they need both borth certs.... I think it all depends on the person looking at the file


I'm not sure, maybe his but I doubt we put mine in (beneficiary). Oh man, I'd have to get mine translated for sure :(

Great. Online Status changed to request for evidence today. Not sure why or what they need as we pretty much sent in everything right away. Anyone here who had this happen?

Husband received hardcopy today. We were transferred to tx. Any experience or stats for that?

So after the first update on the case status on the 15th it now says transferred to local office on the 18th. Guess my husband should expect the hardcopy telling us where exactly it went to soon. Hope it's not NSC since they get so many that it will cause the same thing as it did at the NBC. Let's hope and wait...as always. Sigh.

Yeaahh so much good news all around!
 
p.s are you just checking https://egov.uscis.g...d/CaseStatus.do ?



Yes that's where I checked. I'm not over excited though. It just means it will be right on another desk waiting...

I'm not getting my hopes up anymore. Apparently there is no order of working on the files.

Urgh it's so frustrating to check the timelines and reports. How on earth is it possible that some get an approval after 3-6 month. There are petitioners from august who already received their noa2 end of October. Great for them but honestly it's not fair to those who have been waiting since January etc or even earlier. Why doesn't the uscis work in the right order....guess the fwd to other service centers messed the (probably non existing) order up even more. Just had to vent. Sorry :(

Help. I've read that a lot of people got an info pass to find out what's up with their petitions. Is it really helpful, and if so, it says that you should bring all documents...my husband of course did not make a copy of the papers he already sent. The only thing we have is the case number and the noa1 info. Will that be a problem. :(

Yeah this waiting game sucks badly. But my husband and I have been doing this since October 2005...guess a few months will be bearable though it doesn't get easier as everyone always said....it gets more frustrating each single day.

Thanks for crushing my hopes lol...guess I'll take on another job now if it still takes that long. Though I read so many people did get their visa in less than a year. What's that about?

No I don't. Unfortunately I don't work at all right now. Contemplating wether to take on a new job for which I'd have to move or wait it out a little longer :/. I haven't seen my husband since mid July. Happy for you two though that you get to spend Christmas together. Good luck to all of us, may the new year bring lots of good news.

Just joined the forum. I was so frustrated I started google-ing and found this. Helpful yes, hopeful no. It's been about 7 month since my husband (us citizen) got the noa 1 (pd April 9). I am German, living in Germany...I know I can visit anytime but who has the money for that?!? I just want to be with him already. We have been doing this for over 8 years. :(

Make sure the pictures are the specific measurements that they require...oh and it's helpful if they don't lose half of your papers - nothing you can do about that though :/

Urgh. So much money wasted. You could have just rescheduled your return flight for a few hundred bucks. But I doubt it is a concern to uscis :) good luck with everything.
