K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsJune 2008 Filers!
QUOTE (symbiosis @ Sep 29 2008, 09:30 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
Do they generally take the cases in order they were received? The reason I ask is that several case numbers that proceed mine (NOA1 sent June 13) seem to have been approved. I'm getting nervous!


Yes they do BUT and this is a big BUT, they tend to go a bit out of order because they are all put into bins/boxes and then assigned to different adjudicators. So, some adjudicators are faster than others and finish their boxes faster or sometimes our sometimes some files just take longer (more name searches etc.) so if you happen to be behind a slow file in a bin, then you slow down a bit as well.

For the most part everything kind of evens out eventually... but there is often a difference of a couple weeks foor NOA2s for similar NOA1 dates.

Hopefully that makes sense.

Hello everyone. Just got back from my vacation with my lovely boy in Orlando. It was a great week!

We haven't had any touches or been approved yet, but I'm not too worried. I'm thinking it will come in the next couple of weeks.

Hope everyone is staying strong as they wait!!

Are all of u getting update(touched and all) thru in Email? caz I have never got any email from USCIS even though my option Email on my Case Status Online checked...

All the time I have to goto USCIS Case Status Online Login n Found all..updates....

Any one know y m I not getting updates in email ?



As far as I'm aware of, you only get notified by email for your NOA1, NOA2 and RFE. All that happens when you get a touch is that the date has changed.


But I didn't get email for my NOA1 too


We didn't get an email for the NOA1. And like the others have said, you won't get one for being "touched". The date will just change.

I'm totally happy for them, that is crazy fast..but I a bit hurt at the same time...I guess maybe it can be looked at as a good thing...Bo's sitting here trying to tell me that I should be positive..

so I'll try smile.gif

After further investigation it was actually actually an expedited case afterall!

Seems to be picking up now though!

My prediction is that things will speed up and May filers wont wait as long as March/April!

Good Luck to all the June '09 Filers!

I was a June '08 filer and I made it through. There was a huge slowdown last year around June for Vermont and it looks like it's happening again. We all got our approvals around October last year.

Try to stay positive and know that you are almost there!!

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsExpress K1 packet re-routed to Dallas

Hi all - I'm new to the visajourney forums, though have been reading posts and gathering info.

I just sent in my Express mail K1 Fiance visa package Saturday - Monday being holiday figured they'd receive it Tuesday. Tuesday says was mis-addressed and is being forwarded to Dallas. Dallas has received it today (October 13, 2010). Does this sound like normal procedure to any of you who've done this recently? thanks! ~ Kathy

This is on the instructions:

For U.S. Postal Service:
USCIS P.O. Box 660151 Dallas, TX 75266

For Express mail and courier deliveries:
USCIS Attn: I-129F 2501 South State Highway 121 Business Suite 400 Lewisville, TX 75067

Well in our case waiting 4 years for a visa was the hardest part. Since he's been here the past 10 months we've had our ups and downs but that was expected. But overall things are much better now and hopefully we've been through the worst.

You will get the package from the Consulate within 1 to 2 weeks that they receive your case, it will tell you what to bring. Usually the interview can be 4 to 6 weeks from the time they receive it.

Another question... how long does it take for NVC to send a letter informing about the case number assigned and consulate it is sent to?


could be a couple weeks, sometimes less sometimes more


But, once you get NOA-2, you can call NVC and get your case #.

So, yes, same issue as the others with Church, never used the envelope bc NYC has a lot of Catholic churches and I tend to sample them all, depending on which neighborhood I want to explore that weekend. But, have contacted a family friend (who's a priest in the diocese where the church I want to get married in is located), and he's going to try and help me (i.e. putting me in contact with a sympathetic priest here who can guide us through Pre-Cana and then give us permission for the friend/priest in other diocese to marry us). Hopefully it will go well.

And yes, sometimes the CC can seem that way, all about the money. You'd think they'd welcome people now, given all the issues.

For those that just got their NOA-2's, anyone else besides Rich and Maire have interviews set? My fiance is faxing in the DS-230 tomorrow, as we just got the email today...will hopefully be able to call by end of the week to set up the interview, but he can't come until October anyway... sad.gif

Here's a question for you. For those of you planning on doing more traditional church weddings (man, I'd love to do the boat thing!!), are any of you getting married in the Catholic church?

Am trying to navigate that now, but apparently most churches don't seem to want to bend their "must be a member for 6 months - year" rule for immigrant fiances that have to get married within 90 days. Also partly my fault as when I moved to NYC a few years ago I didn't formally register with a church. Just curious about everyone else's experiences.
