K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsCSC/NCS/TSC Case Status
At least 3 febuary filers and maybe more did get approved last week, just no email was sent or status updated.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsDoes It Really Take This Long??
You should be getting your NOA1 soon, but they probably are backlogged with all the H1B visa applications. So it may take a few days longer than normal to get your NOA1. If you used a personal check you can get the number off the canceled check, If you used package tracking, should should know when it was delivered.
Dan JMaleIndonesia2007-05-16 19:58:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsIs this normal?
Noifications have been really slow lately, probably has to do with the 60,000 H1B visas that they need to processes. We were approved last week, but only this week did we get an email notification, and I doubt I will see the NOA2 in the email for another few weeks.
Dan JMaleIndonesia2007-05-17 22:23:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsIs this normal?
I wouldnt worry about sending the copy of your NOA2, Its only a notice to you that the petition has been approved. If it hasnt been approved there is no way it would be at the embassy, so sending the NOA2 is kind of redundent.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsCan i use my maiden name or necessary to change sirname on documents

Can i put my maiden name while filing AOS or is it necessary to use husband's sirname?
Is it mandatory to change my name on the SSN card after marriage and before filing for my AOS?

Request some information again..


I think the forms want you to use your legal name. If you took your husbands name through marriage use that, but if you didnt, use whatever is considered your legal name.
Dan JMaleIndonesia2007-05-18 16:51:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsWahoo! But has it gone further than I think?
If you read some of the other threads, you will find that its common. CSC is backlogged on notifications due to all the H1B processing.
Dan JMaleIndonesia2007-05-18 19:01:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress Reportsapproved!!!

I tried to call and ask innocently about my case. :innocent: But I got , what I had already suspected, no NOA2! :angry:
I guess I just keep on waiting :whistle: . Hopefully it happens soon or I will just sit here and :crying:


Your a March filier, I think you jumping the gun just a bit :P But you should hear something in a couple weeks.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress Reportsapproved!!!

Congrats!!! Can I ask what you said when you called about the "RFE"? I called the address # change and didnt get anything... Also can you rub some of your good luck this way???


absolutly...follow the prompts to get to case status/rfe...took 3 or 4 minutes for someone to pick-up...i told him the truth...that our petition had been scanned on the 8th and i had not received any info since, and i stated that i was inquiring about a possible rfe...the way i worded it was a little confusing...just hoping he would input our receipt number and see what would pop-up...he just said, "your petition was approved on the 7th", and i immdiately asked, "when was it mailed to the nvc?"...and he said it was mailed on the 10th...wahoo!!!!!


Thanks SO much, we were touched 3 and 4th and NOTHING. That is amazing for you and I hope the NVC/consulate stages go just as fast!

I just called USCIS for the first time, just to see what they would say. I told him I needed to verify my mailing address. He read me the same screen I read everyday: "On February 27, 2007, we received this I129F PETITION FOR FIANCE(E)..." Then he told me he has no access to any information. He then tried to instruct me to change my address online. It was a wasted phone call, but worth a try... :help:


Ditto for us, lets try the RFE route!


I dont think the change address route gets to the call center at CSC. You may have to use the RFE route.

That way gets you to the call center at CSC and not the national call center.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsWhy is adjudication date changes
Its based on the averages calculated by the timelines the users enter. Some cases take longer than other so the average is going to be higher than what most people experience.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsUSCIS Website says one thing but they don't see it!
Your still within normal processing time. As far as I know, no one who got an NOA1 in march has been approved as of yet. And yes to get no touches for 3 months is normal. After your petition gets entered into the database, you sit on a shelf until your turn comes up, which will be soon. They dont do anything with the file during those 3 months due to the backlog they have at CSC.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsAnother NOT sent NOA2

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress Reportsworried,no touch!
At CSC it takes about 90 days. Most of that time is sitting in the queue as the adjucators go through the backlog of cases ahead of your case. Its normal not to receive any touches while your case is waiting to be processed. Once its picked up, then you will start seeing touches. March filers are only now starting to get processed.
Dan JMaleIndonesia2007-05-23 14:35:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsIs this horrible feeling in my gut justified?

Did you go to RFE menu when you called the USCIS ?

Yes. I was actually quite impressed by the professionalism of the gentleman I talked to.


Oh. I think you got unlucky for getting that guy to answer your call. You might want to try to call again and who knows you'd get a different operator. A nice one who would kindly reveal your approval. Best wishes for your journey.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsRecently approved.....now what???
Moving after your petition is approved and before your fiancee moves here and you file for AOS, is probably the best time to move if your going to. Just inform the consulate that your address has changed.

You do not participate in the interview. Only your fiancee does. You or your co-sponsor shows support with form I-134 and any supporting documentation. Average time to the interview after the consulate receives your petition is about 80 days for Thailand.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress Reportswhat's the average wait to get NOA1 notice?
Normally its a week or two before you will receive the NOA1. But right now with the H1B visa applications they are backlogged. if you dont recieve it in a couple more weeks, then call the service center and see if they have your case.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsAny news from March fillers?
VSC filers have a much shorter wait time than the rest of us. But you are still within normal processing time. CSC March filers are only starting to receive notifications, if your towards the end of the month, you still have some wait time ahead of you.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsDoes USCIS process I-129F's in batches?
It wont let me edit my other post, but i did find the volume numbers. http://a257.g.akamai...pdf/E7-1631.pdf on page 18 of the document.

It was less than I though, I must have been remembering volume numbers for another form, But the volume for 1-129f is about 66,000

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsDoes USCIS process I-129F's in batches?
The number is way more than that, I'm trying to find the exact source, but the number of I-129F petitions processed each year is around 200,000 to 250,000. The same form is also used for K-3, I dont know if that number includes K-3 petitions as well.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsCase approved at CSC... now what do I need to gather?
You and your co-sponsor needs to fill out the form I-134. Including support documents for the methods used as support. With income, employer letter/tax returns, with assets include account statements. If income is suffcient, you do not need to mention assets or other types of support. But if you do mention it, you do need to include documentation.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsRFE Line at USCIS
When you do connect to the right line, It says "Thank you for calling United States Citizenship and Immigration Services California Service Center". I have no idea what the other options say since I never call them.

Generally I dont think they will be able to tell you anything, unless you have been touched.
