I am also a Dec filer .. My priority date is dec 5 th and mine was sent to the Nebraska service center .. But when I called them today cuz I had some questions they told me that they are just now working on the Feb 2013 I-130 forms .. And I may not hear anything from them for 10 months or so for a decision .. That is kinda discouraging so I am hoping that is not the case .. And they move a little quicker ... If anyone else knows anything any input would be great ....

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsNVC Filers - July 2014

Hello Guys!

 

I have one quick question:

 

Bc of my country official language is different that English translations are demanded. I am wondering if Marriage, Police, Military certificates must be translated by certified translator + public notary done or i need apostle for all and notary isn't enough? Or maybe maybe just translation with statement at the end is enough and apostle and notary is extra?

 

Below is requirements by my country for IV visa and translation is mentioned also. Just much people tell me i need apostle and i got confused.

 

8. TRANSLATIONS: Certified English translations must accompany all documents that are
not in English. Translations must be certified by a competent translator and sworn before a
Notary Public. All certificates must be less than 12 months old when presented on the
interview date.


 

Thanks you very much!

Hello guys, today my wife received respond from USCIS!

The status of this service request is:

Recently, you or your representative contacted USCIS to notify us that you believe your case is outside of our normal processing time. Below is a summary of what we found and how the issue has been or may be resolved.

Our records show that your case is currently pending adjudication. We regret that we are unable to provide you with a completion date at this time. We apologize for the delay.





What do you think guys? Is pending adjudication one of the final step from Initial reviewing or it doesn't work such?

Nebraska Service center is such, sometimes super fast and makes us surprised and sometimes so quiet you will think that they aren't working at all. I hope till end of the month they will make another wave where my case will be in :) Just i am wondering your ideas about: 100 case above and below much people are approved already, it is weird but they skipped like 11 case inducing mine. How does it work?! When my case will get approved i think my wife and i will celebrate it like more than any holiday :D Wish everything great for all of us October filers.


Vivian&JabaFemaleGeorgia2014-04-23 02:20:00
IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsOctober 2013 I-130 Filers

Hello guys, Congratulations for all previous approvals. I am October 21 filer i am repeating all time but i want it to be clear. Nebraska reviewing time published by USCIS is 5 month so my case is pending 6 month and 1 day exactly, so my wife who is my petitioner went in USA couple days ago temporarily,  she called and USCIS and made service request they asked her several questions and said it is registered and we need to contact them if we arent reviewed among next 15 days. she was very attentive. Despite of i know based on our spreadsheets that probably my case must be reviewed soo i decided to do it just in case. 


Vivian&JabaFemaleGeorgia2014-04-22 13:18:00
IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsOctober 2013 I-130 Filers

Congrats to Previous approvals, Probably holidays will cause delays, They barely work they dont need to be delayed but what can we do.


Vivian&JabaFemaleGeorgia2014-04-17 01:34:00
IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsOctober 2013 I-130 Filers

I dont know why Nebraska stopped frequent approvals! Do they have Pre-Easter or what happens i dont know. If our groom size was enough for another days to see approvals why everything froze now? Probably bc they are approving super little size of filers, Nebraska awake!


Vivian&JabaFemaleGeorgia2014-04-16 01:05:00
IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsOctober 2013 I-130 Filers

I made some research and i want to share it to you! Mostly it will be useful for Nebraska filers!

First for Nebraska filers average time between NOA1-NOA2 is 176 based on October spreadsheet and same for September is 184! so we are near approval guys i am sure, personally i am on my 174 days so over average October and around after 1 week same as average of September. So i am positive about it and you have to be too.

 

Second reason is: My case number starts with LIN (Lincoln, NEBRASKA)149004337#, i went deep and found out that we have much approvals around numbers LIN149004 134 - LIN149004 250. Those cases got approved 7 - 11 April. Like 120 case got approved in one week. LIN149004 250 + 1 week: 120 case is LIN149004 370 (mine is LIN149004337#), Based on another research it tells us 1 more week before approval (of course if case got not lucky it will take forever)!

 

I have two reason think approval is near with little delay 2 week max. I think me and around almost all October Nebraska filers must get approved till end of the month.

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsOctober 2013 I-130 Filers

Austin congratulations you were waiting as motivated as i do, just you were in the beginning of October filers and i am almost at the end PD21!

I hope i and rest of us we will get our approvals soon and we will get as happy as you are now.

NOA2 will be like new year, BD, Christmas i don't know everything amazing for my wife and i after waiting so long.



 

I hope after 7.5 Hour USCIS will open and approve much of us!

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsOctober 2013 I-130 Filers

Hi everyone,

 

Still waiting for an approval from NSC. :( Congratulations to everyone on their approvals thus far! Really happy for you all! Let's hope the rest of see something this week. Question, maybe some of you guys can help us out. Since I don't think the approval process is going to speed up any time soon, I don't think  my husband will be home anywhere near the end of May/early June. My best friends wedding is in Acalpulco, Mexico on May 24th, my cousins wedding on May 25th in LA, and my cousins engagement party on June 7th in LA. I know my husband can get into Mexico but flying from AUS to Mexico is about 6k instead of $1600 to fly through LAX. Any experience with getting a transit visa? Do you think he would be approved for one? Should we wait till his I-130 is approved before applying?  If we waited till I-130 is approved, do you think he would be successful in applying for a tourist visa just to come to the weddings and engagement? Just want to make sure nothing is going to affect his application for his actual I-130, but I would really like for him to attend as these are important events for me an my family.

 

Any thoughts or opinions you guys have will help.

 

Thanks!

 

Kat

Tourist visa wont influence on spouse visa processing, I made all application forms and everything just changed plan and didn't pay fee! I clarified everything and it is ok but read about it online. If your USC spouse lives in USA and you trying to visit her you have little chance to get if you live together overseas you have much more. Also you have good evidence you wont stay, bc why must you hurt yourself when you can get Lawful immigrant soon.

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsOctober 2013 I-130 Filers

Guys please i need your recommendations! 
 

First I my PD is October 21, Routed straightly Nebraska at time of getting NOA1, My case number is LIN1490043379 (Of course this specific isn't mine, juts lets say such bc i am near this case number)

 

Like i checked my case number and went below one by one  (through MY CASE STATUS) and clarified that 238 cases below (LIN1490043141 good approvals around) of my case people are approved really good, almost all i-130 filer.

 

From this 238 file like half is I-130 and rest another, so lets say rough 200 case of I-130 are before me. So how fast can USCIS  hit my case, how fast USCIS can review 200 filer, is there any idea ?

 

I am appreciating any respond!


Vivian&JabaFemaleGeorgia2014-04-14 02:19:00

Hey Guys, good morning all for different time zone than mine is good night :) So previous week was very slow and stressful for all service centers. I am in Nebraska and hope this week will be fast for all USCIS centers and they will hit my case and all of us as well. I am waiting 175 days already since NOA1 so it is more than Nebraska official reviewing time published officially. Also it is more than Average based on October Spreadsheets, so it is really time and please Nebraska awake! Go Nebraska go, Get some Red Bull or Coffee or something and make our cases done!


Vivian&JabaFemaleGeorgia2014-04-14 01:10:00
IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsOctober 2013 I-130 Filers

I am not trying to compete service centers, all we know CSC is best but it isn't what i wanted to express! Nebraska and another service centers aren't fair because half October filers got approvals and guys like you and earlier filers are waiting still. It is bad as it is that is all. They are approving i know it too but it  isn't enough and i am sure 90 % here are not satisfied with USCIS work expect CSC filers probably.

Wish you best, and i hope 10 March will be mine and ours who deserves approval after waiting more than average timeline of reviewing published by USCIS officials. 


Vivian&JabaFemaleGeorgia2014-04-10 09:04:00

Guys have you ever heard after talking with Level two officer he to promise for help for making you case be approved soon ? One Filer from my country said that her USC husband called to lever 2 and asked for help and officer promised for help and they got approval after 2 days. Weird but interesting...


Vivian&JabaFemaleGeorgia2014-04-10 04:39:00
IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsOctober 2013 I-130 Filers

Guys my wife and i are checking case my status all day maybe as frequent as 3-4 times in day but unfortunately nothing news till now! Nebraska stopped very weird, it makes me feeling that just they have eastern per-party! PD is October 21, So i think it is time Nebraska to approve people who are left like me! Dealing with USCIS  is like have big problem going with you in wife, they have a lot delay! Once i will get USA i wont care their processing time just follow their steps but now i need to go fast and i am impatient! Nebraska come on, you approved filer several days ago based on our spreadsheet and it makes general picture i am sure!

I am so ready for next stage, even i have everything in hand for sending except some certain docs!

 

USCIS is not fair that they are approving people so random, and if they have politic for reviewing and approving they need to say that for example from Europe we are fast and from Asia we are slow or explain something to people which will make people dont live in dream.

Wish you best
