K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresMY CSC NOA2 approval in under 60 days.
It's only getting better at CSC if they are processing your petition!!

It's still a ####### shoot!!!! What the heck are they thinking there???

196 days vs 55 days ??? Hmmmm? Who should we work on first??

I don't want anyone to wait as long as I or others have. But YES this still pisses me off becoz they are spending TIME on petitions that should not be worked on yet!!! What is so hard about making it somewhat FAIR??

This is why I never play the Lottery!! I never win!! My file and other March filers should be worked on and done before any other files are worked on PERIOD. Then move on...to April...and May.....what is so damn hard about that??

They are either retards or just totally apathetic to what they cause..

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresHas CSC finished with March, April, May and June?

This is friggin disgusting!!!!! I'm so pissed this government can go to HELL!!!!!!!

I serve 5 years in the friggin Marines fighting their stupid wars for oil and this is how I'm treated???

How many others from March are there??

I'm here in the Philippines now visiting my fiance and if it wasn't for my job I'd stay here!!!! Screw the US Govt!!!!!!!!

Who else from March still?

I know Michellek1976 and myself.

She had an additional RFE. I haven't yet??

I'm too pissed to even type right now. Would just like to know to tell my congressman's office when I get back to the USA.

I'm going out tonight and toast with other American Expatriates "SCREW THE US GOVT!!!!"

I know how you feel Michelle, I'm at 207 as of the end of Sept.

My anger at this pathetic Govt has no limits right now. I'm with my fiance at the moment, until Monday.
I'd almost feel better if I had recieved another RFE. What's holding it up now???

INCOMPETANCE!!!!!!! There is NO excuse for this shiit. NONE

No touches since Sept 6. VSC is approving ones sent AFTER that!!!!! #######!!!!

My Congressman's office is Inquiring. Big Deal The woman there doesn't care unless you're Mexican!!!! WHY?
Becoz she's Mexican!

She blows off other countries.

AAAARGH!!!!!

All I wanted was to give my fiance good news while I was here with her!

And CSC can't even get it done now after 207 friggin days.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresFive E-mails from USCIS
You've only waited 2 months so don't worry to much. They'll probably process it quickly once you send it.
I'm curious what they might need also since I'm worried I might get another one.

They've had my IMBRA RFE longer than 2 months and I'm almost to 7 months if it makes you feel any better!

Hope you hear something before or while you are visiting. I just got back yesterday from Philippines but couldn't give my fiance any good news while there. It was so hard leaving!! with no approval still!

Don't worry you'll probably get approved before me and the other "forgotten bastards of March" lol

March 8 here! Sad, Depressed and Angry pretty much summs it up for me too!

No update since Sept 6. for me? I'm really getting worried now, watch I'll be denied just so they can say they're keeping America safe from all the Terrorist Fiance's flooding into the country!

I try to joke about it but it's to the point where it's making me literally sick at times!

yeah at least she realizes it's a BS response. My congressmans office just makes excuses for USCIS.
Paper pushers covering over paperpushers butts!! I think.

I just got home Tuesday and got a response to mine.

"They indicted that your Petition for Alien Fiance is with an officer who is reviewing the merits of the case"

They've had my RFE for over 60 days! How long does it take to review the dang thing??

"merits of the case" makes me a little nervous?? and no update since Sept 6??

211 days when others are being approved in under 30? no excuse!

I believe that. look at work visas dates!! non-citizens get better service.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresHow do I apply for visa for new fiance?


Why dont you just resend the old I-129F and replace the name of the women? And just tell them this is a revision of the original I-129F and blame them for not sending you an RFE originally for marrying a woman who would soon change her mind?

If this doesnt work, just look for a domesticated woman here in America which is hard, or just domesticate one for yourself and save yourself the K-1 visa trouble.

Not very good advice there. And that last comment was VERY uncalled for. Women, or men for that matter, aren't animals that one domesticates. :blink:


LOL ummmmm nevermind!! :lol:
HornetMalePhilippines2006-10-07 22:23:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresUSPS seems to work for overnight delivery of RFE
I work at the Post Office. They'll just hold it until someone is there to sign for it.

If you sign the waiver it'll just go into their tub or bag however they get it delivered to them. Some business's pick up their mail at the Post Office if they get a ton, which CSC might do.

People make fun of the Post Office sometimes, how slow we are, but we do a dammn good job most of the time. When you deal with a billion pieces of mail of course some are mis-sent or misdelivered but that's like .0001% or something ridiculous.

If it's important send it express or at least priority mail! They can track only express or registered mail!!

What's USCIS's excuse for losing files, slow service etc??? Could you imagine the uproar if we took 6 months to deliver people's social security checks?? We're accountable for our service, USCIS is not.

I'm on Lake Michigan actually right across from Milwaukee.

I bet there's some NOA2's tonight. I doubt mine, I don't want to get my hopes up anymore. :(

My Congressman's office told me last week it's with an officer who is "reviewing the merits of the case"
SHe just made excuses for USCIS.

SO it's not in security checks and it's still taking this long?? what BS!! How long does it take to review only so much evidence??

It shouldn't take more then 60-90 days max. now that IMBRA is implemented.

But somes cases like mine and others get flagged for some BS reason.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresGeneral CSC Rant

I agree Ecalos, we're due another batch of approvals.

I hope when the next batch is up I'm in it. I know it's selfish but I don't think I could stand to see another wave of August/September approvals! :(


It's not selfish at all!!!! We should have been approved long ago. It's only fair for them to spend the time on ours instead of Aug and Sept NOA1's. I'm disgusted at how they treat us and the mental pain they cause.

I would have been happy to wait only 60-90 days!!! Heck my fiance would be here by now if that had been the case.

ARGHH!!!!!!

NOTHING!!!! It's totally worthless. My NOA1 is over a month before that date, and they are processing petitions with NOA1's in Aug. when they still have hundreds or maybe over a thousand from March, April, May, June!!!

They are without a doubt the worst agency in the Federal Govt.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedureswhat are they doing??
I know what you mean. It makes no sense for them to spend time processing July and Aug. when they still have so many from March, April and May. We can't all be waiting for security checks. I know I'm not, my Congressional inquiry said it's just being reviewed. They just don't care to be fair.

We are nothing to them. Even though they wouldn't have a job if it wasn't for us. There's no incentive for them to do a good job, unlike if this was a business in the private sector. No competition.

Govt is too big!!

Even they get a Congressional Inquiry they still could drag their feet. I mean, how long can it take to review? There's only so many pages of evidence!!

I hope your's doesn't go to the desk mine is on, for your sake. Nobody should have to wait this long when they have the manpower to process it, they just don't care obviously.
