I wonder if everybody is getting RFEs so it gives immigration time to catch up on their "backlog"

Too bad the government doesn't do refunds, or let us go through the rest of the process for free because I'd like to get my money back, all this time waiting I could've used it.

I never got my hard copy in the mail.  I did call the service center twice and asked to speak to a Tier 2 rep. I called last week and this week to confirm the information they gave me was correct, and they both told me the same thing, thank God!!

 

I never received the hard copy, but my case is at NSC. So if anything call and ask to speak with a Tier 2 rep. ( I never received the physical copy of my receipt number either and I told them that, and that the address on file is right, so I'm assuming that I won't be getting the notice of where my case is at, and that's how they told me )

Does anybody know if February transfers have gotten approved?

March filers:

 

Here is the spreadsheet for transfers on Google docs. As you can see, there is a lot of key information missing. If you see any key information (transfer, location, NOA2) that you know to be incorrect, let me know by leaving a comment on the doc. I would provide an editable document that we could collaborate on, but as I mentioned before, some of the Excel 2010 functions do not work properly on Google Spreadsheets.

Wow, great work!! You should work for USCIS lol, I think we'd all be happier!!

We never got a third email too, and same as yours when we called they said our case is already in Nebraska. We recieved the second email regarding the transfer last Nov. 1. We haven't received any snail mail regarding the transfer as well sleep.png

I haven't received  any snail mail either.  Hopefully we get approved soon though.  When I do get approved though, I'm going to make an infopass appointment right away so they can give me a copy of any snail mail supposedly sent to my house.

When will i get third number e-mail? Any one idea ?

I never got a third e-mail, but when I called USCIS they said my case was already in Nebraska.


GodisMyGuideNot TellingDominican Republic2013-11-09 11:22:00
IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsI-130 MARCH 2013 FILERS!! NBC

is it safe to say that most cases transferred to Nebraska are getting approved after around 2 weeks?

 

Also, are the approved people receiving emails/texts about being approved or just checking their status online?

 

:)

Thank you!! smile.png
We are getting so anxious now, seeing so many getting transferred and some approved already.
I am nervous ours may get "skipped" like others or the notification will take forever or perhaps our case will enter that mysterious blackhole you hear about that happens to some ppl.
All we can all do is hope for the best. smile.png
HAPPY DAY EVERYONE!! smile.pngsmile.png



Me too!! I got transferred, and when I called USCIS supposedly it's in NSC. But It's been a week, and no letter in the mail.

 

My receipt never came in the mail either. I'm nervous that we may get skipped and in the future if I get an important document sent to my house it might never come even though I've verified and they have the right address on file :.

 

Hopefully we ALLL get approved soon!! We should all meet in the middle of the country and have a party for all of us being so patient!!! lol

I hope there wasn't a glitch on mine - NOA1 was March 14th - it says it was approved - Funny thing is I just called about a week ago to check on the status. Not sure if that helped. - My only worry is no texts or emails of notification.

How long after we receive our 2nd notice should we receive a letter in the mail regarding where our case is?

 

I'm a bit nervous because I never received my receipt notice in the mail, even though they said they sent it out. (Thankfully I have a receipt number, and my case is listed on the site, and has been transferred)

When should I receive my paper notice on where it is exactly?

Guys we got approved yesterday NOA2 after filing On March 6,2013

They mailed us a notice so we should get it in couple of days.

 

I hope now the rest of the paperwork will go fast.

 

I wish everybody to get it soon.

What office was your case in?

 

And did you get transferred?

Everybody that has gotten transferred, how long after you got transferred did you know where your case was going?

 

I got transferred Oct. 31, then received another notice Nov. 1.When I call to find out where it is, nobody knows lol

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsI-130 MARCH 2013 FILERS!! NBC

Yup, I just got a 2nd email.

 

First one said it was transferred to a local office.

 

2nd one said it's being transferred and processed at a USCIS office.

 

The third will probably be where it's at.

 

Thank you again for all your help!!

3 emails? Is the first the one notifying you that it got transferred? And the other 2, what are they?  Just curious, so I know what to possibly expect

I live in NJ, and they told me local office, but wasn't able to specify.  And when I looked at Newark's local office they don't do i-130s. Does anybody have an idea?

Dumb question, is there a certain time of day like morning or afternoon that they update the statuses if there is an update to be given?  


GodisMyGuideNot TellingDominican Republic2013-10-28 14:01:00
IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsI-130 MARCH 2013 FILERS!! NBC

Wow, so since my case was received March 14th, I'm assuming they will start processing my case or it will get transferred soon, right?


GodisMyGuideNot TellingDominican Republic2013-10-25 07:44:00
IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsI-130 MARCH 2013 FILERS!! NBC

Can I ask where you are getting your information from that March filers will be the next to get transferred to local offices?

 

Also, does local office mean for example the one here in NJ (bc I live in NJ)? 

 

Sorry for all the questions!!

Hello!! I was just wondering if anybody who filed in March has gotten approved yet? I filed for my husband and it got sent to the National Benefits Center (MSC)

 

I'm just trying to get an idea of when to expect something :)

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsJuly 2014 Interviews

Interview scheduled! For July 23rd. A bit disappointed to have a late July one though, as it means I will miss a big family reunion/party there by only a few days... but well I waited since April 2013 so I shouldn't complain! Congrats to everyone!

wooohooo congrats!!

 

 

Always EXP 11 JUN 2014A (EXP is not a country code)

 

And select your country or just leave blank and see that way. That tracker is very picky

 

Thank you so much!!!!

Can I still get an interview date for July even though they're no longer scheduling any interviews. Can something become available n I can get scheduled? Just curious to know.

I don't think you will because they just booked a bunch of us for July.  Buttttt you never know I'll pray for you!!

 

 

Congratulations on your interview date!!! I am still waiting for CC and expecting no checklist (last scanned docs were on May 27) and was afraid that the DR consulate moving will lead us into another backlog situation. Just came back from DR yesterday.

HEYYYY!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks!!! Hopefully you'll get the CC soon. And aren't youuu luckyyy with that DR weather? I hope you put bug spray on and didn't get that mosquito virus!!

 

Interview schedule July 17.... time to relax and watch the World cup while I wait for the D-day. Thanks everyone for your help and encouragements. One more hurdle left.

CONGRATS!!
