K-3 Spousal Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsLosing hope...

IMO, you should be happy with 6 months. if you get 5 months, you should be f*cking ecstatic, with MOEs (multiple orgasmic experiences) thrown in for good measure.

I wouldn't 'jump' at 5 months tick mark, at all, if I were you. But that's just me.

Good Luck, with whatever you decide to do.


LOL! I am so stealing that...

As far as waiting another month...not being the most patient person in the world (in fact, being one of the least patient people in the world), I'm not sure I could make it another month without imploding.

I'm going to start with 5 months and see what I can do, contacting my Senator, and trying my hardest to be firm with some sweetness that I most definitely will not be feeling, thrown in...

We'll see if it gets me anywhere. I've doubted Push's advice before, and look where it got me.

Being anything but nice while being assertive would be a mistake, IMO. An infopass appointment will do nothing. Don't mess with the I-129F. Any harm has already been done, so don't chance doing more harm. There's no need to ask for an expedite, as your inquiry is likely to trigger one anyway. Contact your State's senior US Senator's office for assistance.



Many millions of thanks to you Push...really...I will take your advice. Nice but assertive...I need to work on that.

K-3 Spousal Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsLosing hope...
I'm sure what I'm feeling is familiar to most if not everyone here. I've been swinging between frustration, anger, depression and tears and feel powerless to do anything which just adds to my frustration.

For purposes of this topic, I'm referring to our I-130 petition, since I couldn't care less about the I-129F now that it will most likely be closed. It may be a factor, I don't know, but perhaps someone here will.

My I-130 NOA 1 shows a "Received Date" of October 2nd on the notice. To date, at least according to the USCIS "Check Your Case Status" website, my petition hasn't even been touched since October 26th, when I presume they just married the I-130 and I-129F petitions together.

I have scheduled an InfoPass appointment for March 3rd - exactly 5 months and 1 day from the received date on the I-130 notice. Starting on that date, I plan on bombarding USCIS with inquiries. In addition to starting daily calls and written inquiries, letters to both Senators and my Representative along with the CIS Ombudsman, I plan on bringing the following information with me:

* All information and documents originally submitted with the I-130 and I-129F petitions.
* A copy of the I-130 NOA1 with the "Received Date" of October 2nd highlighted, as well as the statement "If you have not heard anything regarding your petition it is because we are processing petitions received before yours" (or something to that effect).
* Screen shots of time lines showing petitions received and approved AFTER ours.
* Screen shot of USCIS "Check Processing Times" website showing that, in their own words, if the last petition they processed was within their set guidelines, the processing time on the chart will show "5 months".

I plan on asking USCIS to abandon the I-129F petition and move forward with the I-130. I also plan on asking for an expedite, since I'll be using their own information against them, and figure if their information is erroneous, it equates to USCIS error.

I may be nitpicking, but it's all I've got at this point. I know I won't be satisfied with "check again in 60 days".

So, my questions are:

* Will bombarding them with phone calls and paperwork only succeed in pushing back our petition?
* Does any of this matter? At this point, even if it doesn't speed up our petition (as long as it doesn't slow it down), I am just feeling spiteful and hoping that some adjudicator in USCISland will feel just a fraction of the irritation that he/she is currently putting us through.
* Will they even bother closing the I-129F at USCIS or will they make us go through with it?
* Is all of this just a waste of time?
* Are Hobekenworkingman and me the ONLY two going through this? It's feeling pretty lonely in the K-3 forum right now...

Ooooh Man!

All these posts have me worried and I havn't even sent my I-129F yet... Geez man, I need to stock up on prozac or something...

Let me ask everyone out there,,,

What causes the delays? Does anyone ever find out why there applications are held up?
I've never had to speak to a senator or congressman in my life and hope I don't have to resort to that here because, It seems to me that calling my congressman will get me to some recording saying "Sorry, Your congressman is to busy to deal with your little K1 Visa problem"... I would love to hear others experiences of what they've learned about avoiding delays, fixing delays, and dealing with representatives.

I am stressed already and I haven't even started yet.. My documents are spread out all over the dining room table and getting ready to stuff it into a FedEx envelope, but want to make sure I get this right and learn from everything you guys have been through...

We need to stick together...

Kenny


Hi Kenny,

Actually, most applications from October have been approved already. Mine seems to be one of the unlucky last. For one, they have my "Received Date" wrong. They received my petition on October 2nd, but their website, their recordings, even their customer service reps keep saying my petition was received 2 weeks later. I was able to clear this up with my call to USCIS today. Most cases, I believe, barring something unusual, will go through quicker than mine.

Also, in the chance that you do need to contact a Congressman, it's a very simple process. You will absolutely not be ignored, you are their constituent, and it's their job to help you. If they don't, you will tell friends, co-workers, family and then they get fewer votes when they're up for re-election.

Both Senators and my Representative are well prepared for taking Immigration requests. They all have a section on their websites that say, "Need help with a government agency?" I simply followed the links, downloaded the forms giving them permission to speak with USCIS on my behalf, wrote a synopsis of the problem & faxed them. It was really no trouble at all - and everyone I've spoken to at their offices have been very nice.

Nahhh.. I was approved on the Nov 19th and I think by the 5th of Dec. I was at the NVC. I know that if 30 days have passed and NVC doesn't have you case # they can start some sort of investigation regarding your case. But you should start getting every single document ready for the NVC. They are not like USCIS. NVC is fast and if you don't have everything ready for I would say NOW! you will slow yourself down.


:)

One advantage to being impatient and ####### retentive, is that I've had all of our stuff ready for NVC ever since I found out that we would probably end up going CR-1. It's ready, I'm ready, he's ready...I've practically memorized the shortcuts...

K-3 Spousal Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsInsanity is boring it's ugly head into my brain...
Well, impatience reared it's ugly head today, and I called USCIS to make them aware that there is exactly 11 hours before our petition is exactly 5 months old (yes, I'm ####### retentive, I know the hour that our package was delivered).

I was transferred to a supervisor because they keep telling me their received date was October 15th, but my NOA1 says October 2nd.

And of course, I was given the usual shpeil about 5 months being a general guideline for when they begin processing the petition.

And apparently, USCIS is currently processing petitions from September 16th.

I didn't even bother saying that I know differently.

I'm going to bring my evidence, from their own website, showing that if they're processing within their 5 month time frame then their "processing times" will show up as 5 months. Well, their processing times show 5 months, but they're processing cases from 6 months ago. Something isn't adding up here...and apparently the general public isn't supposed to use their brains that hard.

I'm so incredibly frustrated, I didn't even bother arguing with the lady on the phone. Right now I feel like screaming, but obviously, that won't get me anywhere.

Oh, and loved the whole, "The good news is that he should have his visa before the end of the year."

That's GOOD news? That gives USCIS 9 months to sit on it's fat, ugly butt! :ranting: :ranting: :ranting: :ranting: :ranting: :ranting: :ranting: :ranting:

K-3 Spousal Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsNVC fees

my brother had his I-129f approved in december. We were expecting the next communication to come from the consulate however we received fee bills (AOS and IV)... which we paid and now the NVC automated line says a packet of information has been sent.

From all the flowcharts and guides on VJ the only time NVC fees seem to come into play is when they are processing an approved I-130. USCIS does not have his I-130 marked as approved.

Any thoughts??


USCIS doesn't have his I-130 marked as approved where? On their website? Their website is unreliable. Was an NOA2 sent for the I-130? If only the I-129f was approved, then it sounds like he's only been approved for a fiance' visa.

K-3 Spousal Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsInfoPass today @ San Bernardino

FYI, the "Western Processing Center" is what we call CSC. Back when there were only two, that's what it was called. Vermont case numbers begin EAC and California WAC. The E and W mean East and West. USCIS doesn't process visas. They process petitions. Visas applications are processed by Consulates. In case you haven't yet concluded this, your infopass appointment was a complete waste of time.



Haha - yes, concluded. I also figured out, eventually, when the adrenaline wore off, that WAC=CSC...but in the interest of everyone who may read this in the future, I'm glad you clarified!

If a K-3 gets into NVC with the approved I-130 (at same time) , past the 1st of February, though - it'll be 'administratively closed'.

Hopefully - your I-130 will be approved at USCIS at the same time .

K-3 Spousal Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsInfoPass today @ San Bernardino
After checking the clock, realizing I should have left the house a 1/2 prior, and running in a mad-dash around the bedroom, desperately trying to gather the last of the information I wanted to bring to the Infopass meeting, and practically severing my ankle on the foot of the bed, I finally made it out of the house.

An hour and a half later, I was at the Immigration office in San Bernardino, with one other couple trying to remember what the hell I wanted to ask.

By 12:45 they had called my number, because, you know, me, and the couple that were already there needed to keep straight who was first...

The woman at the counter is English. Thank heaven, perhaps I'll get a teensy weensy bit of empathy? Fact is, she was fantastic - so nice, empathetic, friendly, curious to hear how the hell someone else from England managed to find the Inland Empire, "Did he get lost?"

And the best part, the first words out of her mouth are, "This should have been approved by now."

YES! THANK YOU!

So, she takes a look at the case to find out what's been going on. Apparently, our case was transferred to what she called the "Western Processing Center"....see? See how they hide these centers so the public can't know how they're supposed to get in touch with the people actually looking at their case?

Well...this "Western Processing Center" is the place where they ACTUALLY process K-3 visas - 'cause sending it to the right place at the beginning is FAR too efficient for the U.S. government. How then could they keep up the reputation for the red tape?

Well, our case is there, and as of TODAY, it's started processing. Today. Sent in October. STARTED processing today. As in, PAST the normal processing time, they STARTED processing it.

The super-nice English lady then told me it would be about 30 more days at the most, but that at least she could tell us that our case has started processing. Not her fault...can't yell at her...she's been nothing but nice.

Alright - got home, checked the USCIS "Check Your Processing Time" website AND....(drum roll please)...........no change. Nothing. It still says "Last Updated 10/26/09".

C R U D ! !

Alright, people get approved all of the time without actually having their case ever be updated through the website - perhaps we're one of those. We'd better be one of those...or maybe it'll update sometime tonight. I don't think their website is real-time.

She also told me that calling the USCIS Customer Service line is a waste of time. Apparently, they're private contractors, who are given a script, and can only read from that script (that explains why I could read right along with them every time I called). If you have a question they are unable to answer, they escalate the call to a supervisor AKA: Someone with the private contractor that has slightly more authority, but still almost no information about your case. The most the supervisor can do is alert the Service Center that you're inquiring on your case.

Here's hoping! Everyone keep your fingers, toes and eyes crossed for us, please!!!

IMBRA Special TopicsUS Citizens Criminal convictions - chances of K1 visa for fiance?

well i was assigned a public defender, so they are not very realiable. Im going to ask them the day of my sentencing if they could get the 1 year probation lowered. 6 month probation shouldnt be too bad. This is my first offense. But public defenders arent very worried about helping me.


Actually, Public Defenders are in front of the judge every single day. They know the D.A.'s - they know what offers will be acceptable and what offers will be rejected.

As opposed to Private Attorneys, they aren't in it for the quick buck. They don't ask for a $5,000 retainer, and then show up to court once, and keep all of the money.

Public Defenders don't file motions that would be pointless. A private attorney will file motions that they know haven't a chance in hell because the more time they spend on your case, the more money they make.

More likely than not, a Public Defender is in it for the principle, to help people, not because they're not capable of being private attorney's themselves.

There are also sentencing guidelines. The law dictates what the minimum sentence will be - not the Public Defender, not the D.A., not the judge. The LAW.

Well I last saw the boy in May, it's now July, and my next trip isn't until 3rd October.....and whilst I don't want to wish away a generally lovely British summer, I am going slightly crazy here!!

So it made me wonder, just for fun, how you guys stay in touch while apart? Not just literally but emotionally as well. We use the obvious methods of Skype, letters, etc...Facebook is single-handedly responsible for lowering my phone bill though. I set up Facebook mobile so every time he sends me a PM it is converted into a text message to my phone - I can reply by text too (standard UK rate i.e. free on my contract smile.gif and then the message I send back is turned into a text at his end. So it's a convoluted but ultimately free way to text each other.

Plus I send him Disney pins from other Disney parks I've been lucky enough to visit around the world smile.gif

Does anyone have any unusual things that they do for each other to keep the romance alive? (I do NOT mean that in a dirty way, btw tongue.gif)

J smile.gif



We use Skype, mainly because we can speak face to face which is much more gratifying than just hearing his voice. We also had Vonage - and for $5.00 a month, I was given a local number in the U.K. through Vonage so he can call from his mobile and not incur any charges other than the cost of a local call. Brilliant...

Also, Google Voice - another VOIP service that gives a local number - he has a California number on Google Voice so I can call his cell & it is considered a local call.
