The bonus for you is that your file is at VSC..they send them to NVC very quickly where CSC waits for 3-5 weeks to fill a crate before sending to NVC. Best of luck and keep us posted. they asked for another biographical profile on me........My lawyer...who I fired....took 2 weeks to answer my calls and I just filled out another with my maiden name on the other names used......I have no clue what the problem was......but they recieved it and I got a second touch today....so very frustrating I'd be VERY frustrated as well!

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports	Waiting for a NOA2 from CSC for your I-129F?	QUOTE (mox @ Jan 15 2008, 10:55 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I keep hoping that will be the case. I say this rhetorically because I don't think anyone would argue the point, but ya know if they would just be more transparent about the process then it would really ease a lot of this anger and frustration over having to guess about what might be the problem. How hard would it be to just put something up on the USCIS website that says "There's a problem with case online status at CSC, so we're not updating it this week." Or "Our processing this week has slowed to a crawl because blah blah blah." And I would love to share this thought with the ombudsman, but lessee, I need to fill out a form and then snail mail it, oh but it's not really a problem with *my* case file per se, so...yeah, fuggedaboutit. Not even a decent feedback mechanism. EDIT: To end the post on a positive note, the gorilla is still alive. Thanks mox...was gettin' worried about the gorilla! I agree with what you're saying..it's the same thing that all of us were saying back in May & June. Things go alright (slow) for a while, then come to an abrupt halt. Back in that time frame it seemed that VSC was non-existant and CSC was moving at a pace that a snail could easily beat on a bad day...with a broken shell! If they would just keep us informed, there wouldn't be as many angry/frustrated people.	u2rsobad	Female	Japan	2008-01-15 15:00:00

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports	Waiting for a NOA2 from CSC for your I-129F?	It's a great city! :-) I do agree with you mox and after living abroad for many years, it's not the country, but the people and their attitudes towards just about anything. However, as a foreigner living abroad, we are also sometimes treated with suspicion based on what's seen and heard in the media and other peoples experiences with Americans or visiting here. There are wonderful, caring people all over the world, but unfortunately for everyone, there have to be bad apples everywhere to spoil things.	u2rsobad	Female	Japan	2007-12-03 18:43:00
