USCIS Service Centers	only Vermont issues RFS currently	Hi everyone ....I dont know if I can take this ####### anymore but, I check my status everyday online for my I-129F and it hasnt been touched like AT ALL ... I heard about the RFE ####### going on and havent gotten one of those yet but I am at 73 days since my NOA1 ....... I am sorry , I just have to vent cos they dont ever tell you anything and I signed up for the emails notification and havent gotten one yet... This just sucks	samir_shannon	Female	Algeria	2006-06-18 07:52:00
USCIS Service Centers	CSC NOA2 Timelines	After reviewing the timelines, it appears they have not issued a NOA2 since late May, even though some pre-Imbra cases have not received their NOA2's. I have to believe they are processing cases post Imbra and are holding until they get RFE's. The pre-Imbra's must be in AR or other security checks. I am just hoping this is the case, no real evidence otherwise. I sure hope those people that are pre-Imbra get theirs asap!!! Maybe I am in denial and just too optimistic, I hope not though... Looks like we mailed our only a couple days away from each other.... i was frustrated today cos i called and was put on hold for like 25 mins and they said that my case was still like 2 mos away from being processed and said that they will send a RFE closer to when it is time for it to be processed. Good luck	samir_shannon	Female	Algeria	2006-06-26 18:36:00
USCIS Service Centers	Its a miracle! CSC updated its processing info!	K-1 visas are being processed with the receipt date of march 03. it took them 3 weeks to update their info.	samir_shannon	Female	Algeria	2006-07-11 20:52:00
USCIS Service Centers	CSC email address	Here you go: CSC-XII.129f@dhs.gov Keep in mind that there seems to be ONE guy answering email - McClellan - who doesn't have the best command of the English language and isn't really able to provide clear, straightforward answers. Good luck! thank you for putting up the email addy... i just sent them an email. hopefully i can get some answers... also contacted Senator Elizabeth Dole's office today and left a message. Hopefully i get some help from her. Ok all I know someone has it because I read it before could someone please please please give me the actual address to the CSC center? Thanks Tina you have such a nice picture in your signature	samir_shannon	Female	Algeria	2006-07-18 21:29:00
USCIS Service Centers	CSC/VSC connection?	Wow thanks for the info!!!! Get mine transferred too lol	samir_shannon	Female	Algeria	2006-07-19 13:37:00
USCIS Service Centers	Called Senator Dole's office about CSC	I called Senator Elizabeth Dole's office to talk about the CSC. I spoke with an immigration attorney Ms Armstrong about the K-1 process and she was so nice to me. She is going to inquire about my petition after I fax her a privacy statement. She said that she thinks I should get an NOA 2 by the end of the month because they received my RFE on 7/3 and my received date is 3/30. She told me that everything will be ok and that this process normally takes 8 months to a year from start to finish. I am at 4 mos now so hopefully it will go by fast from here. I told her about the poor customer service at the CSC and she said that they are trying to improve on the system. Soon the CSC will only be handling K-1 and K-3 visas. This should help. So everyone please pray for me and if you have any problems please call your senator cos they are willing to help. That statement sounds a bit like a disclaimer. If you look closely at the VJ timelines, K1's generally DO NOT take 8 months to a year...that is absolutely ridiculous. They usually take 2-4 months TOPS for an NOA2, which is the sitiuation we are specifically dealing with at CSC...that they have created a much longer timeline and refuse to make progress let alone give information about the situation. Also, how does she know you'll 'probably' get an NOA2 by the end of the month? I'm really not trying to be an instigator here...but that is a total assumption unless she has spoken to the one person at CSC who is adjucating your case. CSC has never released any information like this, even to Senators or Congressman about the estimated times for NOA2's to be released based on NOA1 or RFE return. Make sure that this Senator follows through with progressive action, including inquiries and a case directly to CSC. It is the only way to truly apply pressure to get the process moving! well joseph guess you were wrong onthis one.... look at my new timeline	samir_shannon	Female	Algeria	2006-08-02 08:46:00

BTW, how do you know that CSC will only be doing the K-1 and K-3 visas? When is this suppose to happen? What happens to cases like mine, the CR1? Don't tease us girl...give us the low down! this has been news for some time now... alot of service centers are forwrding the petitions to CSC for that reason. i have no idea when the timeframe will be tho.
