USCIS Service Centers	CSC is processing Oct 5th now!	haha and you heard that where ??? He got it right of the VJ timeline page... http://www.visajourn...nt/k1historical But I don't know what that really means. It seems to vary wildly from day to day, so I wouldn't entirely trust it. Rather look at recent approvals. Go to http://www.visajourn...8,210,211&cfl=0 and you'll get a better idea of what's happening. There are some that get approved extremely fast, but those might be military deployments or humanitarian-based expedited cases. I'm seeing recent approvals coming from those submitting July and August, and it's not in-order either.	DavidLovesPheap	Male	Cambodia	2013-02-02 15:42:00
USCIS Service Centers	VSC churning out applications. CSC is absolutely comatose.	I think VSC and CSC take turns processing application types. It's like they will process a ton of K-1s for awhile, and then stop. You still get a few a day trickle in as people return RFEs, but they stopped looking at "new" applications.	DavidLovesPheap	Male	Cambodia	2013-02-28 22:59:00
USCIS Service Centers	Service Center Processing Times for K-1	Excellent! It looks quite excellent for you! This weeks NOA2s from CSC landed right around your NOA1 date, some a few weeks later, some a few weeks earlier. Hope you get NOA2 soon!	DavidLovesPheap	Male	Cambodia	2013-03-14 00:52:00
USCIS Service Centers	Service Center Processing Times for K-1	Ok, first, let me post my favorite link! http://goo.gl/jKjgL These are historic processing times based on VJer's timelines. You can reproduce this by clicking on Immigration Timelines, then clicking on K-1, then click on the down arrow of the NOA2 column to sort by recent approvals. You can even make it show just your service center by clicking on the service center drop-down next to FILTERS by the bottom of the chart I've gone through about 30 pages of entries, and here's a few observations that may help you all pulling your hair out over processing times. 1) The service centers process timelines out-of-order. Usually, there is a 60-75 day spread in NOA1 date for NOA2s received in a given week. That means once someone who has an NOA1 date after yours receives an NOA2, you are probably up within the next 60-75 days. 2)National goal has been 5 months, in reality it's taking on average like 7 months. But if 7 months are average, half of you will get NOA2 faster, possibly by a month or two, and half of you will get NOA2 slower, possibly by a month or two. 3)Service centers are about the same. They are approving petitions submitted around the same time. Sometimes VSC is churning out more, and sometimes CSC is churning out more, so you see the "Processing Times" go up and down, sometimes it seems like one is taking 9 months while the other is taking 4 months. Don't joke yourself. If they say 4 months, that means they are churning out a lot AT THE MOMENT, and if kept up they would probably get you approved in 4 months, but they won't keep that up, they will slow down. If they say 9 months, relax, it would take 9 months if they continued to churn out NOA2's at THAT CURRENT RATE, but they'll speed up as they get backlogged. So, just relax. Sit back and do what you can to prepare for you and your honey's life here in the states. Work hard, save money, get out of debt, find ways to increase your income, maybe take online or night classes at the community college to pass time and improve your career, take a look at the next few steps and get ready for your honey's interview, your marriage, AOS, get paperwork together, pay your taxes, drive safe. Find your inner zen, help new VJers calm down too. If it gets to be too long, you can rattle your service centers cage at your prerogative, but remember that they are people too.

US Embassy and Consulate Discussion	DS-156 Question 39, yes or no?	You could print it, sign it, then scan it really high resolution, and email it.  Or you could just leave it blank, I don't see how something like that could matter	DavidLovesPheap	Male	Cambodia	2013-06-20 02:21:00
