K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsRFE query
I know this has probably been answered before but I can't find anything relevant and to be honest my nerves are soooooo frayed I figured I better jump on here and ask.

We initialy received text notification 18th April that we had an RFE. My fiance just let me know that today he got another text notification. I looked on the USCIS website and the RFE date has now been changed to the 24th April from the original date of 18th April.

Does this mean there are two RFE's coming our way or is it normal? We haven't hard any hard copies yet.

Argh the stress!!!!!!

Well, hate to say "told you so" but didn't I say you would get your approval before me?

Congratulations :)

there have been three. the first one dated 19th was actually the 18th (time difference I guess) and the one showing dated 20th, well it's still the 19th in california.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsALMOST IN TEARS

It is getting close to 8 months now since the NOA1 and I just don't know what to do. I am not in the states, so I can't easily contact with the CSC by phone and I hate being helpless in this situation.
It is also frustrating to see people who, from the same country and service center, have applied after me have received their NOA2 and I still have had no word.
Any suggestions on how to pass the time or to speed up this process???!?!!!!
ALMOST IN TEARS!!!
Thanks in advance


It is difficult. Lots of us are in the same boat right now. The waiting has got to me badly. So much so that my doctor signed me off sick with depression yesterday :crying:

My goodness, approvals are being spit out at CSC... dare I be hopeful?!


oh csc, why do you build me up? buttercup baby just to let me down..


:dance: and we are singing! :rofl: Mild hysteria setting in?

Ok I will share a personal moment with you all. Before Greg and I had Skype, we used to share music to express our feelings. This particular track is probably as meaningful now than it was back then. I think a few of you ill also relate to it.

The link is to you tube. If it doesn't play for you then it is Jason Mraz and Colbie Caillat......Lucky

Enjoy!

Keep hoping guys. It seems Vermont is slowing down and California is working on cases. It may be too early to predict BUT a July 17th NOA2 who just got approved did not have any congressional help by the looks of things. Dare we start to be hopeful? Maybe......

First come first served would be wonderful wouldn't it but do you realise your file WAS processed in date order (this thought occurred to me today) The file is received at the service Centre and we are sent the NOA1. For instance my NOA1 is 7th August BUT on the USCIS site my file was touched 10th August. Guess they did something with it right then IN DATE ORDER!

Yep we planned our filing to make it possible for me and my kids to travel to USA in June and spend the summer out there before my kids started new schools in September. They would atleast have been a bit more used to the place by then. Now we are hoping for Christmas! It's not what we were hoping for when we set off on this journey.

I put no blame on the ones who received the NOA2. My frustration and anger is all channeled to the USCIS. Anyways, anyone check igors list lately? Do you like how the DEC bar is higher than the AUG bar? Personally, I find it hilarious!



BUT 31 petitions August approved and 21 petitions December. It's showing higher because there are less December filers on Visa Journey just now.

Good evening and welcome to you all. Pull up a couch, lay back, close your eyes and dream of the day.............

OK, ok less of that :rofl:

Complain all you need to in this thread but PLEASE remember that the filers from November and December that have been approved got lucky. They do not deserve a verbal bashing.

Lets support and try to understand each others frustration. Sometimes it helps to shout and rant :)

OK think enough other threads have been hi-jacked so if we need a great big rant or a consolation hug then this is the thread we should be in. It's not fair on the lucky ones that have got their NOA2 for us to gripe all over their happy threads.

Yea I am sick to the back teeth of waiting, it hurts everytime I see someone else getting approved even though I am happy for them. Just praying it will soon be my turn. Hopefuly fiance is calling his Senator later today :)

A closed CSC won't have any noticeable effect on I-129F processing.



:rofl: Possibly not but hey I was looking for someone to say don't worry, they will catch up, it will be fine but nope I get the truth from you :rofl:

Well it looks like Vermont had another great day with lots of NOA2's issued. California.....a big fat 0 !!!!! :( This is crazy.



Just noticed this on USCIS website.....that explains the no approvals. Gonna be another rubbish week.


USCIS California Service Center Closed Due to Plumbing Issues

On Monday, March 25, 2013, some customers were notified of delivery delays to the USCIS California Service Center (CSC). The delays were the result of a temporary closure of CSC due to plumbing issues. The CSC will remain closed on Tuesday, March, 26, 2013. Deliveries will resume once CSC reopens. We are continuing to monitor the situation and will provide updates as they become available.

Oregon BoundFemaleUnited Kingdom2013-03-25 22:42:00
USCIS Service CentersCSC I-129F Processing Delay Calculator...
It says to put the month in first. If I do that it says I should have been processed two months ago. If I put it in date then month it says I should have an NOA2 in two weeks. Now that would be good :)
Oregon BoundFemaleUnited Kingdom2013-04-11 22:53:00

It is still Thursday in the US


Still doesn't explain CSC disappearing Wednesday and Thursday. Are they on a two day week to save money? :reading:

I saw some approvals on the 10th, and a couple of RFE's today, trolling the "my case status" page from early December filers.



Not exactly inspiring is it? Maybe I should take up knitting while I wait :rofl: :help:

Ok so this week got off to a promising start with a fair few approvals on Monday and Tuesday. It's now Friday here and I see no new approvals since Tuesday. Is CSC on a two day week? Man this is frustrating.

I hope we here something soon about this. There is nothing on the USCIS website about it yet but I guess no announcement would be made untill they know the exact extent of the problem.

I have had to do so many paperwork things twice (not all visa connected) that nobody will believe me if I say I have had to resend the paperwork for the I-129F again :(

I am sure he will but you can wait up to 2 hours to get to speak to a tier 2 person. Patience required in large amounts right now.

Just a suggestion but I have just sent the link to my fiance's local radio station. It's a small station, it might get a chance of being heard. Maybe others should try this in a bid to get it noticed.

Yep my fiance was hung up on when he asked to speak to a tier 2. Seems customer service is just about non existent at USCIS.

No you do not have to just sit and wait it out. Be as pro active as you feel you wish to be but do be prepared for let downs from most people that you think might be able to help e.g congressman, senator, media etc. Every so often, someone gets lucky with their congressman or senator. You may be one of the lucky ones but you will not know until you try.

Good luck in your journey.
