Who, other than me, hasn't even had another touch?? I wanna know I am not the only one...

Pizzadude...I am sooo jealous! You and I have everything the same except NOA1 date...but same day the check was cashed, and same last touch (prior to your recent one).
Hopefully I will get something...touch, RFE, approval, anything..soon.

So! Back to wedding dresses.

Remember when we were talking about stores and I said I only found one really expensive one to even consider at David's?? I think I'm going to have to go and buy the $1,100 dress after all...(It's on sale for $900!!).


That's the task on Sunday, to get that ordered....if you want to know which one it is, I'll PM it to you, since I want Nik to see it for the first time on the big day, and I don't want to go dangling it in front of him on open forums. smile.gif

i wanna see!!! send it to me haha. welll...i was praying for something good to happen today, and it wasnt anything visa related, but i got my grades back from my last term of college ever, and they were the best i've gotten before smile.gif so im happy about that. if only a touch or noa2 today..it would be the best day in a long time...

Well so far I have not received another touch since 3/18/2009 and I am disappointed, just wondering what comes next. I really wish I could understand the inner workings of CSC, I just hope I receive some good news soon instead of finding out I am stuck in a security check or something.


I'm sure you'll hear something soon! And as far as understanding csc, I am sure we could try our entire lives, and NEVER understand haha.

If he's not feeling good about getting in there, you should send him to look around the UK regional forum. There are several posts in there about recommended hotels to stay at and all sorts - even which underground lines to take to which station and how you walk to the embassy from there! There are a lot of people from around the city that weren't really wild about going there but escaped again unscathed. smile.gif

yea, i have seen those posts, so i'm gonna give him all that info. he just doesn't like london. which is funny because he lived there for a long time.

Alright, now that I've got my signature all fixed, time line updated, and other approval related threads responded to (Hope that grouches who try to tell Jan filers that we shouldn't expect them take notice!!)....

I'd just been calling around trying to find a store that had a dress I want to look at in stock, and no one had it. I checked the mail, figuring that the way that the afternoon was going, there wouldn't be anything in there. Well, there were some envelopes....

A colored one!! (Ooh, that's special! Maybe it's THE envelope??!)
-- No, it's special colored because it's from the wedding coordinator. Booring.

Something else.
A plain, thin, standard sized white one....from the Department of Homeland Security (I thought it was going to be a large one??? Maybe it's like getting into college - large is good, small is BAD??)
-- No, Small is GOOD! SMALL GOOD! biggrin.gif

Imagine, some people used to think that laying out by the pool next to the mailboxes was a relaxing way to spend the afternoon...NOPE!!

omg soooo happy for you!

and ginger, I feel the same...atleast we can wait for months together haha. i hope i get atleast a touch soon so i know they have my petition

...i had some random like, half-dream (i wasnt completely asleep) thing a few days ago that our petition got approved on the 19th (today). I doubt that is going to happen though.

Maybe tomorrow will be our day!!!


Hehe I sure hope so! I keep telling myself that I won't get an email update of NOA2 and to just wait until my fiance calls me to tell me he got it in the mailbox, but its sure hard to keep the anxious feeling from going away!


im not too obsessive about the emails/case status...but the most recent jan. approval DID get the email. so you never know. im still hoping for mine to have been in the first batch. but not expecting the mail too soon lol.

QUOTE (JeroenAndMichelle @ Mar 24 2009, 06:24 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
I don't want to be the one who brings bad news but keep in mind that, according to your timeline, they only received your application 10 days ago, so it is not very likely that this is an approval.. if this touch is an approval then you will be the fastest approval in history.

Also, keep in mind that a touch means virtually nothing.. as soon as they 'touch' your application, for whatever reason, the file is scanned and that is what you see... this could even mean just moving the file from the filecabinets to the central heater because someone spilled some coffee on it.. it's a silly example, I know, but it is just to demonstrate how little meaning a touch has.


I wouldn't doubt anything with CSC right now...people have been getting approved in 30-40 days...

I've already tried several times a day and i have never had this message.
I'm not sure, I've read somewhere on VJ that people couldn't log in and they had their

What's gonna happen?
I check everyday my status on uscis website and my application is still pending and is not touched. I don't worry about that because I know it's still early for me to have some news ( I wish I was in CSC!!!!)
I am extremely worried for my timeline in visajourney.
One week ago my timeline showed me an exitimated date for adjudication on June 2nd!, three days ago was showing June 15th, yesterday was showing June 25th and today:

Based on timeline data, your I129f may be adjudicated between June 30, 2009 and July 22, 2009*.

What's gonna happen to us - VCS???? I am scared that everyday the timeline will add 5 days. What's going on?
Please somebody knows it?
Thanks crying.gif


Maybe you don't wanna hear from me, cuz I was at CSC and I already got approved. But, Igor's is only an estimate. Mine jumped TWO MONTHS over a week once. And I ended up getting approved a few weeks before what my timeline said. In saying that, plenty of people get approved AFTER the date on the timeline. It really just depends on the recent approvals. If there have bee approvals that took especially long, the timeline will jump. Same if there are some really fast ones. There were days where my timeline would jump a week just over the course of a day. Just don't fret about it! I wasted far too much time caring about Igor's.

It has been 3 weeks since we received our NOA2, but I have not received any news or mail from NVC that saying they receive our petition.
Is this a normal time waiting for 3 weeks ? I saw other filers got their NVC letter within few days after NOA2 and their foreign fiance/e receive the Packet 3 not too long after being reviewed in NVC.
Appreciate your reply and answer . Thank you everyone!


The people whose NVC date is a few days after their NOA2, is because they called NVC. I'm not sure how long the letter takes..

We're waiting on our NOA2--and of course our case is listed as "pending" but what I'm confused about is----on the USCIS site-it gives an estimated processing time---they list 6 months---does this mean for the NOA2? or for the entire process start to finish?


The 6 months listed on the site is for getting the NOA2. you could check timelines on here for more accurate estimates. neither the estimates here, or the ones on USCIS are completely accurate, of course!

I was always under the impression that they would stamp the passport on the spot if they approve you at the interview.

Please correct me if i'm wrong though, thats what I gathered from other peoples posts


In England, this is definitely NOT the case. They will keep your passport and mail it back to you. I'm not positive, but I don't think the visa is a stamp. My student visa to Japan (from US) was a sticker that took up a whole page...so I am guessing it might be something more like that, rather than a stamp?

To the OP...definitely ask in the Russia forum! Also, there is the possibility of AP after the interview..

Hi All,

Has anyone here experienced a delay of more than a week between the approval time of your NOA2 and your case arrival at NVC? From what I can see many cases arrive within two days and most arrive within a week. So far my case hasn't arrived at NVC and it has been two weeks since my NOA2 at VSC.

Everytime I ring up NVC they tell me that 2-4 weeks is normal and that it can take up to 90 days. crying.gif

Anyone else experienced this??? I feel like we are lost in some sort of immigration area 51 wacko.gif

no one country can make a process any faster, every country goes through the same process... you just sent your petition last month... sorry but you'll have to give it more time...


The OP is actually right...USCIS generally puts Cuban petitions throught more quickly, because on the Embassy side it takes a LONG time, according to previous info I have seen on VJ. However you are completely right - its been a MONTH. Be a little patient...you're gonna need it through this process!

To the OP, my best advice would be to look at other Cuban timelines for some idea of what to expect....


***NOTE: yes i know in general USCIS does not process based on the country the person is coming from, but i have seen ON VJ, other info saying that for Cubans, special consideration is taken due to the extremely long wait at the Embassy, or something like that. So please don't attack me for what I said***

nothing is going to happen calling your senator/congressman. You are still in the 6 month time frame, so that is all they are going to tell you.


already spoke with someone in his office and they said they will look into it as soon as i fax the info. have you called yours? i'm just curious what you base your statement on? also every state is different. what my congressman might do could be different than what yours might do, for better or worse.


If your congressman looks into it before its been 6 months, USCIS will simply tell them you are within processing times.


again, i ask- have you called your rep? i want to know what you base your statement on. if you are just guessing, say so. otherwise, im going to call who i want to call and if it ends up a dead end, at least i was busy with it for awhile, therefore taking my mind off the endless waiting! not being testy- but looking at your timeline-you already have your approval- im trying to get mine, thank you.


uh no i haven't called them...i have the visa in hand already. i'm talking from other people on VJ's experience. go ahead and call them now. when you REALLY need it after waiting 6 months, they won't want to help you again. there are people on here who have been waiting over a year and a half. I think you can handle a few more months! if they were way PAST january filers at VSC, then you should worry. fact is...they're still doing January. leave the congressmen option for people who are past the processing time.


I appreciate the fact that you "think" you are trying to help with good advice- i really do. but like you said- you already have your visa, i don't. i know clearly that there are others that have waited longer and are still waiting. what they did and are doing to help their case is in their own hands- just like what i do is in my own hands. i actually have been working on my case for over a year- we just filed in Jan. You are not dealing with the tearful phone calls and heartbreaking emails-i am. I am trying to do something, ANYTHING to move the process along. its easy for someone that already has the visa to say the things you are saying- you are not in our shoes. so, although i appreciate the fact you think you are helping, i plan to do exactly what i want to do, including calling my rep, when i want to. if it helps-or if it doesnt- i will post it on here- to help those that havent recieved their approval yet and might be thinking of various options.



i WAS in your shoes. i had to wait, just like everyone else. i know how it feels. i'm more concerned about what happens to all the OTHER people who really NEED to call their reps because its been 6 months, or a year, or whatever, and the reps are sick of helping us because of people like you (and no, believe me, you arent the only one calling so soon) who can't wait the normal processing time. i just think this is a slap in the face to people like estadia who have been waiting a year and a half, and you can't even wait the regular processing time. i'm done with this now.
