K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsAUGUST I-129F FILERS UNDER CSC
Hi Tracy,
We're in the same boat - I mailed our I-129F packet on 8/10 to CSC, received on 8/13. No check cashed, no NOA1. What's especially confusing is this:
USCIS' weekly update on where they're at in issuing NOA1s. According to the 9/14 update, they are processing I-130s received 8/8/07, but for "all other forms" they've completed data entry and issued receipt notices for applications and petitions received on or before 9/6/07. If they are lumping 129Fs in with the 130s, then we don't have anything to worry about yet. But if we read this update literally, something's gone amiss.
Any thoughts?

The entire USCIS announcement (from : <<http://www.uscis.gov...04718190aRCRD>>):

USCIS Application and Receipting Update

U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) advises customers that, due to a tremendous increase in the number of applications filed, processing of fee payments and entry of cases into our tracking system is behind schedule. As a result, applicants can expect notices of receipt to be delayed. USCIS is working hard to deal with the increased volume.

Delay in fee processing and data entry will not affect an applicant's Change of Status or Extension of Stay eligibility if all other eligibility requiements are met. USCIS continues to process Premium Processing Service requests within 15 days.

USCIS will honor the actual date that an application was received in our mailroom; this date will be indicated on the receipt (in the Received Date box) when Form I-797, Notice of Action, is mailed. Until this situation is resolved, USCIS will provide these weekly updates on progress in issuing receipt notices to our customers. We appreciate your understanding.

As of September 14, 2007, USCIS has completed data entry and issued receipt notices for applications and petitions received on or before the dates indicated:

The purpose in creating this thread is two-fold; it would be good to keep a track on each other's progress but also because there is seemingly an issue with some applications received by California Service Center in mid-August, it seems necessary to maintain contact with people who are concerned about the filing of their petitions. I noticed a few people have posted concerns on another thread but it might be useful to keep things all in one place.

Here's my story: I mailed my K1 Visa application to CSC on 27th July but it was not received until 15th August, therefore I am technically an August Filer (although I would love to say I am a July filer, ho-hum whistling.gif )

Anyway, I have yet to receive an NOA1 or have my check cashed and under some good advice from a member on the July Filer thread I did a timeline search to see what the status is for NOA1 issuing for August.

What I noticed was very interesting; There is a range of 11 applications sent between the 8th August and the 24th August and not one of us have received NOA1's as yet. There are NOA1's for all other applications sent in August before the 8th and for most after the 25th.

My fiance and I have been wondering whether to resubmit our petition (in our case, this would mean resubmitting with the new fee, which I'm less worried about than the actual time lost) but, it looks to me like CSC have a wad of petitions they are unaware of. This is not one or two applications we are talking about - this is a whole set of applications received between two specific dates (and these are just 11 we know about).

Those of you planning on resubmitting might want to hold off for a while - not least because USCIS have said they will honour the received date as the start date for queuing purposes.

I hope this information is of use to some of you. Those of you who have received NOA1s: congratulations and good luck! Let's keep in touch with one another on our progress.

Thanks,
Tracy smile.gif
