K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsAugust 2012 filers!

Holà!!! ;)

Anyway they in no way take care of files that come in order. Check out Igor's list grrrrr Two NOA2 from December filers!!! They want to enrage us?


Vermont surged ahead processing petitions from further ahead than what we expected them to be working on, they then got their processing time back to 5 months. This could be California trying to fix figures too. On a positive note though, for a Monday, that was not bad for California to have processed three petitions.

Before they take care of August they should finish July!!


I never noticed that Uscis updated their processing times a few days ago. Still says CSC is on 18th July. Been saying that since January! How can they get away with this?

Bumping us August filers back up to the top. Hope we do better this week in terms of NOA2's issued.

We probably sent too much. About 20 photo's, travel itinerary, boarding passes, emails, copies of cards and letters.....

I was looking for my batch mates (I-129's filed at same time as mine) I didn't find many and one only was approved. What I did find was an awful lot of approved I-130's so I am guessing California has these as priority right now trying to reach USCIS national goal. I guess when they do, they might get to us next but who knows when that will be.

I just chatted with an American friend and told him about the extended delays for us all now and DACA. To say he was outraged is putting it mild. He is ex airforce and belongs to some political groups with around 75,000 members. He is posting about it right now and urging everybody to write and complain to their congressman. He says he will write to 50 states himself! OH MY!

I am struggling to understand the lack of NOA2's out of CSC yet again! According to Igor's list, NOTHING since Wednesday but a completely different story for Vermont that are surging through them.

My fiance got three new calves on the ranch today. I am supposed to be there soon helping. Looks like he is going to have to struggle all the way through the haying season on his own :( So unfair :(

I wish you all the best. I feel guilty we got our NOA2 when so many others are still waiting :( . This time in a year we will all look back and say it was worth it. Even though it sure as hell doesn't feel like it now. Good luck guys. :)


Nobody should feel guilty. Some have been luckier than others. Our time will come and hopefully soon :)

Waiting for the NOA2 from CSC is like getting in the shortest line at the supermarket then finding that all the other lines are moving faster................... :bonk:

I have the same going on. From the stress and the anxiety I am this close to loose my job. They warned by that they will fire me in one month because I'm always "not there" and sad.. This is so terrible.



Go see your doctor. I do not know what the rules are in your country but here they can not fire you easily if you are off sick.

The waiting is unbearable. I have been through so much in the time since my fiance petitioned. I have had to cope with family trying to persuade me not to leave the country and dump my guy for someone nearer home! my ex husband arguing over whether I can take the kids with me. He agreed after four months of negotiations then retracted his permission but has now agreed again but with lots of conditions, my kids not knowing whether they are coming or going, getting my house ready to sell, trying to find a job, Lots of personal stuff, and finally I collapse and I have depression. Thank you USCIS and CSC for your timely dealings with our I-129F's :(

If you look at the dream act applications they have cut down a lot now. The peak was Sept time. So hopefully they will start looking at K1's again.

Hope you guys hear soon! :thumbs:


Lets hope we here something soon. I was chatting to my fiance's children last night. They were asking if I was going to get there for the summer with them. I had to tell them that at this point it was highly unlikely. They just don't understand the red tape we have to go through to be there. They were so disappointed :(

About 15% of CSC filers have NOA2's according to Igor's list.


Pitiful! It seems an endless wait. So little movement from California. Sigh :(

Well.... another week begins. I'm so tired to get up every morning or to go home from work (because in California its like 9 am) and say now, this is the day!! Ah. ok but seriously this is the week I can feel it!



I hope your right, I realy do. Fingers crossed and everything for all of us.

i really hope so!!!!! im wondering why they are approving September now when there are some August filers waiting.. do you know why they are doing that? its not fair....



I realy don't know why some are approved earlier than others. There must be a variety of reasons. Try and stay patient. It's not easy I know but your time will come and probably before mine at this rate!

You will hear something soon I am sure. Vermont is way ahead with processing compared to California. Vermont seems to be August/September right now while California.....well I think they have vacated the building.

Well looking at the lack of CSC NOA2's I am kinda expecting another 4 to 6 weeks before we hear anything judging by how slow things are right now. I sincerely hope I am wrong. I can't sleep, can't concentrate on anything, the kids are now saying we will never be going. It's tough waiting.
Oregon BoundFemaleUnited Kingdom2013-03-10 00:02:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsAugust 2012 filers!

I can't believe you guys are still waiting. This whole process needs looking at, it's a shambles. Wish you guys all the best!



I guess you got lucky. My file shows it was touched 10th August, three days after the NOA1. Absolutely nothing since then.

Right now my fiance is working on the veg garden on the ranch that we are going to be building up together. The calves are coming in about 2 weeks and my heard of pygmy goats is now at 6 and I have only been able to see pictures. He will be starting haying soon too. It's a lot for him to do on his own, I was supposed to be there to help in June but now looks like he will be working all summer without my help :(

Vermont seems to be processing a bit faster than California. We may still have a few weeks more wait. I am betting I don't hear anything till April now :(

Think it takes two to three weeks for the paperwork to get to the embassy.

I think my fiance is going to call again Thursday to see if they can give us any more information. Tomorrow will be 7 calender months since I filed. I thought I would be almost through the whole visa process by now not just stuck at first base :(

Thank you for the prayers. I am praying hard we hear something this week. I just got back from taking my fiance to the airport. I feel like my heart is breaking. We hugged and we cried a lot! It's so hard to watch him leave and me unable to go with him. I can't wait to start my new life in the US. Come on California, hear our prayers.

I realy hoped I would have heard something by now. My NOA1 was 7th August. I am lucky, my fiance has been here with me for three weeks but he goes home again on Monday and my heart is breaking again. Almost 7 months since we filed, please, please let us hear something very soon.

Thanks for the support, Oregon Bound! You are right, I did read somewhere that they claimed they were trying to speed up the process because it is getting way out of hand so I hope they come through with that. In the meantime, all we can do is wish for the best. I saw that you got your NOA1 last August...if that is the case then I don't see why you wouldn't get your approval this summer so you are reunited with your fiance! After all, they are working on the July 18, 2012 decisions right now (that's what they told me yesterday). I wish you the best of luck hun, hang in there :)


They have been quoting July 18th processing since January. The only people that seem to be getting their NOA2's from CSC just now is the ones that have had their congressmans office intervene. Even if I did get my NOA2 right now, it's still about another 3 months before the visa interview and receipt of it. That takes us into July then tie up loose ends add another month :( Yea will be lucky if we get there for Christmas. It's a nightmare!

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsK-1 fiance visa California Processing time

(This is my first post in the forum! yay :star: )

:wow: so you all have a receipt date of July 2012? Oh my gosh :( ... My receipt date for NOA1 is December 24, 2012. I was honestly hoping to get my NOA2 by July 2013 at the latest but seeing as how things are going, that may be wishful thinking... I am doing all I can to contact the ombudsman, my senators, congressman and request for expedite. At least if I exhaust every option then perhaps someone will listen? I wish you all the best of luck and honestly hope that the CSC gets their act together because waiting 8 months for the NOA2 is OUTRAGEOUS , especially when they set their goal at 5 months, and the "average" is 6.6 months.

All the best :)



Well the national average is at 8.9 months and CSC at 7.5 months but we know in most cases now they are taking longer than that. If CSC speeds up, which we are told that they should be doing (when is the question there!) then July isn't out of the question but just do not make any plans that can't be changed.

Yeah it sucks, was hoping to be with my fiance this summer but now am hoping we will be together for Christmas.
