Hmm, California has been in some major budget issues in the last 2 months, and threats about cutting worker pay have been looming.

Anyone know if USCIS adjudicators are on the state payroll, or on federal?

Btw, this no approvals thing is pissing me off. There's no holidays this month, and not a single one until the beginning of next month. This is why I wonder if the budget issue may be reason behind the slow down.



OH dear! Where did you read this info? Please post the link.

It's getting to us all, so I'm with you on that one.

I'm just going from the evidence I have found...
Specific instructions will be included in the information sent to the foreign fiancé(e) from that US Embassy.


I would have had mine done by now if there was a way around it. I do believe you need a number, which is sent to you. Also, I don't think the embassy doctors will see you until you have your paperwork from the embassy.

If you find anything different, please let me know.

You'll be done by December! Is the medical you have done by a certified USA embassy Doc?

After you get a approval, would you say it was realisitc to add another 1 1/2 - 2months in order to actually get visa in hand? I have all my forms ready to go, avidavit police records ect.... at least between me and the CSC at least omeones on the ball laughing.gif



I'd guess that you NOA2 should be very very soon! Hang in there!

With ref to times....it depends on what country your in? I know London are one of the quickest. It roughly takes a month to get the approved petition sent over to your country. Then packet 3 gets sent. Depending on how long you take to complete this and send it back, this will save you some time if like you say, your "ready". Then a few weeks wait to hear about your interview....then that could be in the following few weeks. Then a week or so to get your passport back, with your K1 Visa in it! kicking.gif

So...your about right with your times. That is the scale I'm working too. Hope that helps.

Ps. I just want to be there in time for Xmas, I'll cry if not!

Hi Melannie,

Maybe b/c you are in Australia? From my research I have found out us British can't get it done until the embassy call us to do so. Good if you can though, wish I could!

I have everything ready to go....police cert ect.... just waiting whistling.gif

that's great. maybe they heard us talking about it and decided to send it to you! laughing.gif

i really hope i hear something soon, i'm so tired of waiting. i called the embassy to check they had received my forms and they said that my case "qualified" on 17th and that i should hear something soon. i hope they are right.

oh and happy thanksgiving everyone. biggrin.gif

Good moring May Filers, I'm one of the newbies, but I've been reviewing comments and watching the processing trend for a few weeks now. Has anyone noticed that "Processing times" at CSC here on the VJ website were adjusted from May 6 to back to April 26? Was California given another load of applications from "Enron"...I mean Vermont again?

I too am happy for those who move forward on this horrible journey of "Hurry up and wait" but it also seems as if Vermont is now at least a month ahead of California...I wonder why!

Hi, yes I did notice that small detail. I'm a May 6th NOA1 peep too!

It's coming though. It'll be worth the horrible part!

I wish I could say the list helps us. Even a little.

When it was working, it was awesome. We were able to watch us go from 150 to 80. It gave us something to look forward to each day.

But, when you rely on something like that list to keep your spirits up each day......when it's not working anymore......well.......it was a rough few weeks before we found out what was going on.

Anyway......we've been stuck on 80 for about a month now. If you're looking to see which VJ members have updated their profiles after approval, then the list is worth a look.

Otherwise, it's a total kick in the seeds.


I have gone down 20 in the list. I don't really use that part. I just want to see the NOA1 & NOA2 dates being updated. I know they are near mine now, which is why I like to look. Before that, I could take or leave it. I have been sitting tight, quietly, like a good girl....now I'm getting excited!

So, my spirits are up. Not because of the list, just because.... My approval is getting close and the list helps help me believe that I'm not just sitting in an immigration vortex.

We (May people) will be having a good month!

Hang in there everyone.

Hey all......hope you're having a good morning.....or as good as possible on a Monday. I was glad to see that the processing times at Vermont have gone down. I check that graph pretty much every day, and it's now trending downward with the average processing time down about 10 days.



Where did you see this? Please post the link. I'm a link junkie! Then I can forward the info to the Fiancee - he won't come on here.

I heard too about VSC, and wonder why. I have a friend that has filed with them. I hope this doesn't happen to CSC too.

I really do feel this is our week May people!
