K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresIS IT NORMAL?


hello everybody
i did send back my RFE in 30 jun and and was touched the 4 and 5 julay and still no answer or message said that they received my RFE ,but i was touche d 2 time, does anybody is in same boat as me,,, plz tell mz :( :(



If you register with the uscis website they should update you and send you emails anytime your case has been touched, approved, or if they recieve your RFE. You also can call the immigration number with your receipt # and access infomation on the phone about your case to see if the RFE has been recieved they will tell you if yu call them there number is 1-800-375-5283. You need your receipt number and you might be on hold for awhile about 30 min. I hope this helps!!!! the website to register with uscis (www.uscis.gov) and look on the right hand side and click on status case update i belive it says something like that. GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR JOURNEY!!!!!!!

This isn't quite true. They only send email when your status changes. With a touch only the date changes. I wouldn't worry about yet. If you sent your RFE in with delivery comfermation then you know they got it. They touches are them working on your case. I am sure you will hear something soon.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresIMBRA RFE sent back but no reciept notice
Take it easy guys! You need to remember that they have thousands of RFE's coming in. If you got a touch after you know it was delivered then it means they are working on it. For example, I didn't get the email that they SENT my RFE until 3 days after I got it in the mail!! Their email system seems to be hit or miss. Just give it some time. ( I know, easier said than done!)

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Proceduresgood news
Thats pretty much the same thing I have heard. They want to get out of this hole they dug for themselves so they will work hard to get things going again.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresAdjudications

Just another semi dumb question, when I look at my timeline and the prediction that my case will be adjudicated by Sept 1 2006, what exactly does that mean? Will I have approval (NOA2) or will my fiancee have her visa?

It means that the forum program that we are using has taken your NOA1 date, the type of visa applied for and the service center you send it to and compared it to everyone elses that has a similar case. Then it used that info to give you a date when you should be getting a NOA2 or approval of your petition. Since IMBRA has things screwed up right now I wouldn't put much faith in it right now.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Proceduresanyone got RFE from CSC ????

Well I got the RFE, but I think they were in too much of a hurry because they left out the blankity-blank questionnaire! It's been like squeezing blood from a turnip to get them to send me another one, too! Argh! CSC can bite my booty! :lol:

The questionair is generic. If you have the RFE page with all your info on it maybe someone can scan theirs and send it to you.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Proceduresanyone got RFE from CSC ????

At this point, how you send it back probably doesn't matter. Send it overnight only if you want to be able to track it. They are supposed to be processing by NOA1 date. Meaning once they receive your RFE, it will go in your file. Then, when they get to your NOA date, they will process. In reality no one knows if they will really do it this way.

I sure hope they go by the original NOA1 dates. At this point they should be on March 6 petitions. Mine is March 13. God I hope that means I will get a NOA2 in a month or so!!

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Proceduresanyone got RFE from CSC ????

Can I overnight to a P.O. Box?

I don't think so. The CSC has two addresses. The PO box for regular mail and a physical address for UPS, Fedex and so forth. The RFE should have those addies with it. When I get mine I will let you know.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Proceduresanyone got RFE from CSC ????
From what I was originaly told 5000 RFE's were mailed on June 23. Maybe that glut of mail has slowed things down and they just haen't sent all the emails out yet. I don't know. The waiting is getting to me!!!

P.S. I was so upset I typed a$$ (for real) on my other post but I see ### in it's place. Is there a auto filter that changes that or do I owe the captain an opology for making him edit my post? opps!!

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Proceduresanyone got RFE from CSC ????
This is killing me!!!! My Senator sent me an email yesterday saying that my RFE was sent on June 23 also but my status online and on the phone hasn't changed. I just called the aid in charge of immigration back and he said he personally got that info from the congressional hotline that he has access to. I asked them to boot them in the ### and send me an email and to confirm that my RFE is on the way.
God help me, I am going crazy!!!!

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresRFE: Supplement to I-129F: Send back all three pages?
I sent back everything they sent to me. If they don't want the instruction page they will just toss it. Should be no problem either way.
As far as the "questions" (without the question mark) I was advised to just not put anything if I had no criminal past. I agree, very poorly worded RFE but you got to work with what you got!

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresCSC touches

Okay guys...have a question....we have still not seen our NOA1 or a cheque cashed...should we be worried???

Your signiture says you mailed it on June 19? I would say if they haven't cashed your check yet then it may have gotten lost. Did Fedex say it was delivered?

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresCSC Approval
Take a look at my touch history. I view it this way. First there were touches to move me to the CSC. Then there were touches at the CSC looking at the rest of my petition not affected by IMBRA. Then there were touches processing my IMBRA RFE. IMO it looks like they processed my petition minus the IMBRA RFE before they sent the RFE out. Now they are adding my RFE. I am hoping that it means they are soon to be done with my petition and the NOA2 will be forthcoming.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Proceduresdoes everyone get an email

we sent our IMBRA RFE in on July 1 (via certified mail) but we haven't received any emails stating that CSC has received it. my fiance thinks he has misplaced the tracking number for the letter (and he just left for a 3-week business trip so he can't exactly keep looking for it), so we can't even check if it's arrived or not. it's already July 9, and i'm a little worried.

how long does it usually take them to fire off an email after receiving the RFE? does everyone who signs up to receive email notification of updates always receive emails (esp. pertaining to RFE's being received by them)?

It took them a full week to send my email.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresWhen to enter the US?
If you need more than 6 months from the time it is given to you I think you can ask for an extension.
Don't quote me on that but I remember reading that somewhere.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresRFE

Hi VJmembers....Jz want to ask something about the RFE...My fiance recently got it, attached is a one-page questionnaire asking about the IMBRA and criminal history thing....Is that questionnaire the only thing we need to send them back? We're new in this so I hope you could help us....


Thanks in advance....

Make sure you include the blue RFE notice also! That identifies your paperwork to you.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresI-94

Sarah, I am sending you a copy of the I-94 in your email. It is a Dept of Homeland security, Arrival/ departure record. If I am not mistaken it is given to them on the plane. The form must be completed and presented to an USCIS personel at the POE.

Meriem (F)

Meriem_setif is right. On the flight to America you will be asked if you are a resident or a visitor. Depending on what you tell them you will get a form to fill out. That is your I-94. Fill it out before you get off the plane. At the POE they will ask for it. Don't loose it after you go through immigration!

For the USC, no you don't need a police report. For the fiance, you need one from everwhere you lived for more than 6 months from the time you were 16 I think.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresAnother nonsensical CSC email - help anyone?
Your original NOA1 had a timeline for approval, I.E.80-110 days They are saying it should take less than that from this point. The link they refer to is the processing times for the service centers which is also messed up at this point because of IMBRA. At this point who knows when the NOA2's will be out. I am betting if you got your RFE it will be sooner rather than later. But that is just my opinion.
GaryCMalePhilippines2006-07-11 05:24:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresI Predict
Speaking strictly about the CSC I think that the ones have gotten a return email about AMBRA RFE's will have a 3-5 day quiet time then the CSC NOA2's will start. So..... about friday this week to tuesday next week we will start getting them. (I don't know nothing, just guessing and hoping)
