Email this morning, it says RFE issued today- Dec 31. Happy new year.

Well, its about time.. Its almost like TSC took a vacation and they just started up again yesterday.

 

I want to say CONGRATS  but thats not really what I  mean. Yay you finally got it but ####### at the same time.   You should have had this RFE a month and a half ago.   I am so curious to see what the "F" they took so long to ask for...    


What the heck is up with all of these May approvals

I can't even go over to that thread and look... protest6wz.gif  Where were they transferred to?   I'm guessing CSC because they seemed to push out the March and April files they received.

Hi guys

 

For the IV packet that I need to send to them. Do they require the birth certificate and marriage certificate to be an original? 

 

From the website, I see that that Birth Certificate, Marriage Certificate, PCC is not required from Pakistan, 2 passport size pictures, passport biography page..is there anything else I am missing that I should include with the IV package? Thank you in advance.

you would probably get better answers over on the NVC thread.

Oof, yeah, that's horrible.  My mother's friend's neighbor was telling me at a party the one night how he got his wife here in a month on a tourist visa to marry her and that his lawyer said she'd be able to get her citizenship in 2 years. I told him that his lawyer was full of ######, and what he just told me was that him and his wife had committed immigration fraud. He told him that his lawyer had advised him to take this route, and obviously I should have gotten a lawyer with connections. He'd paid big bucks, that's why he got his mail-order bride here so fast.  There were other immigrants at the party, who'd gone through the system who were just as pissed off at this guy as I was.  I wanted to punch him right in his self-righteous face.  

 

Instead I told him there was no way that his wife was going to get her citizenship 2 years after entry. Maybe she'll get her AOS by then, but definitely not citizenship. (And the other immigrants backed me up there.) And good luck with that, because if immigration found out what he'd done to get her in the country, was going to be screwed. 

the problem is, even if someone reported him to immigration,  they(immigration) wouldn't follow-up with it anyway.

I'm looking at another 8 months after NOA2. I'd like to think it would go faster.. but I have to look at it realistically.

I just spoke to the lady that filled out my paperwork and asked her if there was anything I could do she said no so I said ok how long will it take for him to get his visa she goes 4 to 6 months and now I am seriously depressed. If I knew it would have taken soo long I would have planned to spend new years with him

I don't know how anyone can give an estimate at this point.  NOBODY knows how long.   We all just sit on the edges of our seats EVERYDAY hoping our file will be the one they pick up today

 

TSC is a joke. I  haven't heard a peep out of them for so long.

what does it mean when you get an update stating that your address has changed but yet you never made an address change.?

it means you are next to be approved (its a glich in the system)  Past experience is that an address change or A number change notice is received then the file gets approved shortly after. Let's hope it comes through today for you so you don't have to wait til Thursday !  Good Luck !

NBC Lee Summit started adjudicating petitions.

A July filer received their NOA2 from Lee Summit. No transfer. Hopefully this will speed up the process

 

They just better start digging in to the backlog that they transferred....  I had to unsubscribe from May, June and July because it makes me sick to see the approvals.  Nothing against the filers... its the USCIS and the process

My PD is 3/29

No activity from 3/29 to 11/8

11/8 - Email/text stating case was transferred to USCIS local office

11/15 - Email/text stating case was transferred to another USCIS office (got letter in mail few days later it was transferred to TSC)

12/23 - Email/text with approval (no RFEs)

 

Almost 9 months from the PD and 45 days after transfer.

 

Thanks all for the support and good luck to other still waiting.

Did you all see the USCIS email update:

U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) recently began transferring some extension of stay casework from the Vermont Service Center to the California Service Center to balance workloads. The affected casework includes the following form:

I-129, Petition for a Nonimmigrant Worker, filed by an employer to extend the stay of an alien to perform services as an H-1B specialty occupation worker.
To learn more, visit our website: http://go.usa.gov/ZZnQ



I guess it is good that those cases are not being transferred to NSC or TSC; otherwise, we would face even further delays.
Inshallah, we all get our approvals very soon!!!!









Just saw that. I had a mini heart attack when I saw the senders name.... then I saw the actual email... What a let down  and YES, I am so happy they aren't going to TEXAS.

Got the I-130 for my wife finally approved yesterday. Here are the dates for people who are interested.

transfer notice to Texas service center: November 8, 2013

notice that approval was mailed: December 19, 2013

 

 

I hope all the March filers get their notices this month. Now I wait to see what they need for the NVC. I'm still looking for an up-to-date link that clearly lists what they need so I can start preparing.

Just got email saying my case got approved.

 

"On December 18, 2013, we mailed you a notice that we have approved this I130 IMMIGRANT PETITION FOR RELATIVE, FIANCE(E), OR ORPHAN. Please follow any instructions on the notice. If you move before you receive the notice, call customer service at 1-800-375-5283."  

 

Thank you all for giving me info and helps. I really appreciate that.  I also pray for everyone who still waiting will get approved soon.  I do think our march people who were transferred around Nov 6 to NSC will all get process before Jan 6. 

 

I don't know if putting in service request help. I never get anything from the mail.  But that last one just happened right before they updated my status to "address change".  That makes me think NSC have people check request all day long, unlike NBC. However it maybe just happen they are processing my case at that time. I have telling tier 2 agents put service request for me 3 times since SEP.  I also use that as my excuse for bypass tier 1 agents. I just say "A tier 2 agent put in a service request for me 30 days ago. He say if I don't get any update call back. Can you transfer me to a tier 2 agent and see what's going on?"  No need to ask them questions, you all know tier 1 don't know anything.  If you ask, they just going to give u stupid answer then you get mad. 

Congrats !!  You waited a very long time. I am happy for you !

Texas is probably working on the Dream Act i130's

Well,  I have a DREAM  they can ACT on    ...

 

Why transfer cases to a service center that can't deliver?  I believe I read that the December filers are getting sent to the service centers, not NBC.   How nice that they get sent there right off the bat.   I swear I will lose it if I start seeing approvals from the recent filers.... I already restricted myself from the threads after May.  I can't watch anymore

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsI-130 MARCH 2013 FILERS!! NBC

And of course they're delaying the updating of their processing times. One of the geniuses I spoke to today said that was because they were still processing Feb. 12, 2013 filers. *headdesk* I can't even with these people...

 

I finally got a Tier 2 call back, and got a nearly 10 minute lecture about how I was over-reacting, and should not have even been calling to check up on my case yet, or have contacted my congressmen or representatives. After this was done he informed me I might get an answer by the end of January, or possibly February, or March. He really didn't know. It could even take more than a year. But I should just "enjoy the ride". (OMG, I seriously wish I were joking.)

 

He also told me to be happy because I didn't have an RFE because that would delay the process further. I said "I'd welcome an RFE, because it would have meant that someone has actually looked at my case. I have no indication that anyone has even LOOKED at my case since it was transferred." Him: "But it would delay it!" Me: "I've already been waiting 9 months. Delay is really a relative term at this point, isn't it?" 

 

Then he asked me if I was going to spend Christmas with my husband, you know, he comes here, or I go there.  I responded with: "Well, he's not coming here because he'd probably get turned away at the border, with my I130 petition still pending." He goes "Oh yes, that *IS* true" (No ######, Sherlock.) "And I have two small children, which means the cost of travel is prohibitive, not to mention how traumatized my kids are going to be when we have to leave Daddy behind again and come home."  Him: "Yeah. Well, Merry Christmas." 

 

girlwerewolf2xn.gif ranting33va.gif protest6wz.gif crying.gif 


I'm in. I probably won't even been approved at that point. And knowing them, they won't update their processing dates until sometime next January to avoid having to deal with the service requests. 


Im so pissed off just reading your post.  Is there anyone you can complain to about the conduct of the Einsteins who answer the phones?     OMG   just remember they have no ideda about the processing times and they probably make a game out of how much they can piss off the callers.    We are seeing April approvals so we know that Feb 12th is just a date they were scripted to give because thats what the website says.

Well someone's lying.  I honestly think it was the guy today.  Since last week when I called the guy told me I did have an RFE but it hadn't been sent.  Plus I now have two emails from my congressman saying I have an RFE that hasn't been sent.

 

They're all useless scum-sucking bottom feeders so whatever.  I'm going to call again next week.  "Merry Christmas, all I want for Christmas is some damn transparency in your broken system"

obviously the a-holes who answer the phone don't have any useful information other than your case is in process. Someone on the April thread went to an info pass last week and was told his file is at the NSC. Today when he called, tier 2 told him his file is in Kansas local office.    They know nothing.     Maybe ask for a supervisor next time you call. Tell them you were treated rudely the last time  you called.    Somebody has to have the correct information...

I sent two passport photos of myself and two of my wife. Hope that was enough.
 

thats what Im saying... some people are getting RFE's because they want more passport photos. I don't even know what is on the instructions  I gave 6 of each to my lawyer.   I don't know what he sent.

 

You can bring a small photo book to your interview and show it to the officer.  They may ask you questions about who the people are  in the photos.

How many photos isn't enough? I sent at least 25-30.

no no, not realtionship photos... passport photos.

And then their files will be put in the same filing room as ours and someone will come along and grab the first box they see.... and then the June approvals will start....

My PD is March 20, and I got transferred to Nebraska on the 7th.  (1rst notice on the 5th. 2nd notice on the 6th. 3rd notice on the 7th. And my file hasn't been touched since the 7th.) It looks like there's a whole group of us from right around that time that are still waiting.  If I read the former adjudicators information properly, there are about 50 files per box. Maybe we're all sitting in the same one. Perhaps we should compare our case #'s. In private, of course.

Good Idea, but do you really think they file them numerically?  I mean,  by the looks of things, they just throw them in a box...  There doesn't seem to be any order to them.  If they filed them numerically, then there would be more approvals in oder ( like it should be)  IDK, it is so hard to figure this all out.

That's what I thought I was seeing. To me it looks like anyone from the Philippines was getting their case pushed to the front of the line, regardless of whether or not they were directly impacted by the typhoon. 

 

Maybe we can just chalk it up to most Americans being really bad at geography. tongue.png

The processors were probably told to do all Philippine files. Some processors go and search for  all those files ( as it is a good time killer to search for files) and some processors are just grabbing boxes and processing whatever they have in front of them... The May boxes are probably the closest to the door so that's what they grab.

 

Its very difficult to see the May files getting approved while March and April are still hanging out to dry....     #######?

look at this timeline http://www.visajourn...e.php?id=167388 imagine how unfair the process. cray5ol.gif ..

well, they are are expediting the phillipino beneficiaries.     It is frustrating to see the super fast approvals when we have been waiting so long.   

 

Remember too,  sometimes there are trolls who create profiles and post fake photos.   Not saying that is the case ,  But Im just sayin'

Don't get too jealous.
