IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsAug 2013 I-130 filers

A little off topic here, but since there are so many Indians I thought I would throw this out there. Hubby doesn't have a birth certificate, it seems it gets turned into the school when he started in Bhopal and from then on he is supposed to use his school record as proof for date of birth?

 

What do we do then for NVC to submit for birth certificate when he doesn't physically have one and doesn't know any way of getting a "certified copy"?

 

BIRTH CERTIFICATE: Original and photocopy. Each applicant must submit an original and a clear photocopy of his/her birth certificate. The certificate should include the applicant?s name, date and place of birth, the names of both parents, and the seal of the issuing office, i.e., the municipal authorities. If your name is not mentioned in the birth certificate and if any details are missing in the birth certificate or if there is a discrepancy regarding your date of birth or name, submit the certificate along with secondary evidence.
 
Secondary evidence can be a baptismal certificate, an adoption decree, a school record, a notarized affidavit from a close relative, a neighbor or friend who was present at the time of your birth on the appropriate stamp paper, which must be sworn before a First Class Magistrate. The person making this affidavit must state how he/she knows your family and how he/she knows the facts of your birth. Secondary evidence must have your name, date and place of birth; names of both parents; and the seal of the issuing office. If your birth was not recorded, please submit a ?no record of birth registration? letter from the relevant municipality along with secondary evidence and if your birth record has been destroyed or the municipality authorities will not issue one, submit a letter from the municipality stating so along with secondary evidence.
 
Note: If any of these documents were issued in a regional language, a notarized English translation is required in addition to the original.

So I checked both status confirmation numbers for 129f and 130, and they both were transferred to a local office. So does it mean they will kill my 129f and will move me to the IC path?

 Whats ur PD for i130?

CresentMoonFemaleIndia2014-01-31 04:32:00
IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsAug 2013 I-130 filers

With nothing else to do, I actually looked through my docs to find my NOA1 because it did not make sense so as to why they gave me a 63XXXX Receipt Number.

 

Guess what.  Im PD Aug 7. It also explains why 10 numbers above 6 below are all PD Aug 7.  Wifey sent it out on aug 6 and we live in chicago so it makes sense why they would give it an immediate Aug 7 PD

 

 

 

 

That makes me feel... 

 

a little better (??!!)

I think it may be a possibility - I read something on the April or May thread about their petition being transferred back from NSC to NBC... so maybe they're going to actually start processing petitions at NBC now! 

 

I wish it was true.. I prefer approvals rather transferring here n there. Pls NBC start adjudicating petitions crying.gif

Im sure that will remain a mystery until it happens. As far as i have been reading however..pray for California.

 

Yeahhh praying hard. I love CSC. I m waiting for CSC to accept my love. :P :P :P I hope CSC would love me back luv.gif


It's a ####### shoot. There is no rhyme or reason that dictates where your case goes aside from their workload size.

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsAug 2013 I-130 filers

 

France does not have DCF, We sent our I-130 to the Chicago Lock-box.

 

I honestly have no clue, it is such a joke how they handle everything with no order. If I find out any other details I will let you guys know.

 

I am glad to see an august filer got approval. As I am also an august filer, started to think positively after checked ur timeline. Hoping for our NOA2 in next a couple of months. 


CresentMoonFemaleIndia2013-11-05 11:43:00
IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsAug 2013 I-130 filers

I m also an august filer. Please update if anyone get NOA2. I m very curious and interested to know if any august filers getting NOA2. I wil be happy n wil feel it wil be a good sign.


CresentMoonFemaleIndia2013-11-05 05:49:00
IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsAug 2013 I-130 filers

Hi Quitepainful we have the same timeline :-).
We sent ours to the Chicago Lockbox on the same day as yours 8/15/2013 and because my USC spouse lives in Delaware we were expecting it to be sent to the Vermont VSC but our NOA1 says MSC=NBC.

I hope that is a good thing meaning hoping MSC is a quick processing center, I know we all have to wait months but hoping it will be in less than 5 months for us to get our noa2.
Good luck to you all Aug filers ;-)



 

 

I m also there, august 2013 filer. NOA1 date is 8/15/2013. Petition is in NBC. Receipt number starts with MSC*********. Still its on initial review. Keep our finger crossed for NOA2. Glad we re all on the same boat. Hope i will get more infos from august filers. will keep in touch

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsProcessing Times

Hi there ok I just have a question. I didnt realize the difference from the Texas Services Center and the Dallas Lockbox. I sent the package to Dallas Lockbox yesterday. Is that ok? so from there they will either send it to california or Vermont? So the processing times are different based on where they sent the package?


Yes, you are on the right track! Processing times at California and Vermont centers are different. Right now Vermont is much slower but they tend to go back and forth as to which is processing faster. Good luck!

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsVermont K1 Visa -Processing times
Hi all!! I just did a little research on the USCIS website regarding volume and trends of the CSC vs. the VSC and here is what I have found (based on their latest chart data date of Aug. 12, 2012). Here is what I have found:

1) On April 12 CSC had 11,800 pending I-129f petitions pending; on August 12 they had 7,800
2) From April 12 - Aug 12 CSC has received 9,800 new I-129f petitions
3) From April 12 - Aug 12 CSC has completed 12,700 petitions (reducing their backlog by roughly 3,000 - 4,000 petitions depending on how they were adjudicated)
4) On April 12 VSC had 14,400 pending I-129f petition; on Aug 12 they had 18,900
5) From April 12 - Aug 12 VC received 10,200 new petitions
6) From April 12 - Aug 12 VSC has completed 6,900 I-129f petitions

Now, I have no idea about the staffing at each center and I also have read that VSC processes certain types of visas that no other center or field office processes so maybe these are factors that effect the volume at which they process I-129f petitions. But it's pretty obvious that during this time period VSC is either concentrating on other visa process, they are severely understaffed for their workload, etc. Maybe a combination of a lot of things.

As an October filer, I know I have a wait ahead of me and I see that CSC timelines for NOA2 have gone up a bit at CSC and have fallen a bit at VSC over the past two weeks. Hopefully, this indicates that they are balancing the load of the I-129f petitions so that everyone has a shot at a 5 month timeframe or less, very shortly. Even though I want my SO with me as soon as possible I realize that there are a lot of couples ahead of us and I wish us all a lot of luck in our approvals. Just thought I would share what I have found (at least through Aug. 12).

Has anyone talked to their representative to try and get the 'real story' of what is going on at VSC? Are they shedding workload? Have things improved significantly (or can we expect this in a very short time)?

Thanks and good luck to all!!!!
