K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsVSC at a standstill today...
When I passed the six month mark I called VSC and the person was polite and saw that my NOA1 date was beyond there published date which is now 11 Sep. My NOA1 is 10 Sep. So she took some info and submitted a request to research my file to find why it hasn't been processed yet. She said I would receive a response within 30 days. This was Monday so I'm hoping to hear soon. I'll give the process two weeks to work by still using Sugar and Honey. After that I guess it will be letter to Senator. Now I don't know all the reasons for why some are getting quick approvals (NOA2 in 3 months) but I would suspect it might have to do with a waiver request. I have no qualms if those having petitioners in the military and a deployment might require a waiver. They are serving our country and I salute them. It would be interesting to hear from those who were quick approvals if they were actually in a waiver status at all?

Hoping for a June wedding : )

After you pass the 6 mo0nth mark you can call them up and file a service request. I received I-129F approval (NOA2) at 6 months 1 week and 1 day. I filed the service request by calling the number posted in your Initial Review. A week after my service request I received my approval. Not sure if it was a coincidence but I do feel that the service request helped. Also use Honey and not Vineger when dealing with the person on the phone and I think it will get you further along.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsNovember 2009 filers

My fiancee moved inbetween when I submitted the I129F and rx'ing the NOA2, so I called NVC yesterday to see about updating her address:

"We process these pretty quick, yours was sent to Juraez consulate yesterday but I can update her address here and then you can contact them"


So it only took NVC 3 days!


Douglas,

I too will be heading to Juarez and have been really concerned over the delay in how long it was taking them to send the info to the consulate, so to hear it only to 3 days is great!!!!!

Good luck with the rest of your journey and keep us posted as I would love to know how things go.

Yes....and the thing with the estimated timelines is just a statistic game. If VSC were truly approving petitions in 4 months then our estimated date of approval would be somewhere in August. But since the only petitions that we see approved recently are from December and January it adds to the timeline because the time to approve those were 6-7 months instead of 4. If you average those numbers then our estimated time of approval is not 4 months but 5 or a little more. Once those from March get approved AND update their info we will see our timelines move back again.

But bear in mind. It depends on members updating their info. So the more they do it the more accurate the timelines become.

By the way - I am posting a few links from one of yesterday's hot topics for those of us here who did not read the thread.

In the thread below , a former service center agent describes how our applications are processed at the centers - it was fascinating

http://www.visajourn...mp;#entry738208

and here is another one about a story a couple of years back about VJ

http://www.washingto...2801706_pf.html


For those of you who want to try and take some action about the inequity between the VSC and CSC I am posting the letter I submitted to the USCIS Ombudsman today. Please feel free to cut and paste if you like. I used to work for the fed gov. and we had an ombudsman - she could often shake things loose if there was enough public interest.

For those of you who are not interested, please understand that I am not trying to offend anyone or be a line-jumper. The conversation in the "I'm Outraged" thread got a little tense yesterday and I certainly don't want to disturb the peace of our April VSC group. I also posted this on all the VSC threads that precede us.

Good Night!

The Letter I Sumitted to the USCIS Ombudsman today:

To Whom It May Concern:

In April of this year I applied for a K1 visa for my finance. Because I am a resident of Virginia I was required to submit my application to the USCIS center in Vermont. Since I have applied for this visa, the processing times at the VSC have slowed dramatically (to over 180 days).

When I contacted the USCIS today, they said that the VSC was processing applications from December 30, 2008 and that my application would not be reviewed until October 22 of this year in the best-case scenario (more than 180 days after I submitted my application). Meanwhile, residents of states that feed into the USCIS servicing center in California are being processed within 66 to 100 days.

I find this inequity unacceptable, given that all applicants pay the same application fee. After having researched this issue, I do not think that it is caused by a difference in the efficiency of VSC employees versus CSC employees, but more likely by a misallocation of workloads vis a vis resources by either the USCIS or its subcontractor Northrop Grumman. Furthermore, I do not understand why processing times are increasing while the volume of applications is decreasing (as your office itself noted in its June 2009 report to Congress).

Unless steps are taken to remedy this inequity immediately, which is unlikely given my conversation with USCIS today, I will be forced to cancel my wedding in November of this year. My parents will incur significant financial losses, as well as my family and friends who have already purchased tickets to attend the ceremony and reception. As I am sure you are aware, these misfortunes pale in comparison to some other people standing in line at the VSC under far worse circumstances, while May and June filers begin to be approved at the CSC.

I realize that my application is currently within the USCIS' “normal” processing time. Nonetheless, today when I called for the first time I was told that my application will be adjudicated around October 22, more than 180 days after my submission. Further, it is not "normal" for residents of one state, like Virginia, to arbitrarily receive such significantly inferior service from the USCIS than residents of California or Oregon. Why isn't the I-129F workload distributed more evenly among these centers and why can't files be sent from one center to another when one center falls significantly behind another?

It is infuriating to see large numbers of people who filed their petitions in May and June being approved by the CSC before all of us who filed our applications in January, February, March, and April at the VSC. While I know that the memebership of the primary tracking site for I129F petitions (VisaJourney) does not comprise the entire pool of I129F applicants, its membership pool does represent a statistically valid number of applicants and it is therefore possible to ascertain broad trends in visa processing extracted from its data. On top of this, USCIS' own bulletins display the existing inequity, albeit on a more publicly digestible magnitude.

Ironically, my fiancé is more peaceful about this issue, noting that the USCIS seems to me no more equitable or effective than its counterpart agency in his largely corrupt country of the former Soviet Union. In fact he advised me to not to send this letter, for fear of the type of retribution one would encounter in his country for voicing concerns about a what seems to be a systemic problem that no one has an interest in or incentive to correct.

As a patriot and former federal government employee, however, I assured my fiancé that things were different in America. I sincerely hope that your office will propose and implement a long term solution to this problem, rather than simply add my letter as a tally mark on a count of "Top Ten Complaints in the Ombudsman E-Mail Box" for inclusion in an annual propaganda piece, like they would in the former Soviet Union. It is hard enough to wait six months plus for adjudication. Adding the knowledge that people in different states are waiting half the time you are for no apparent good reason is like adding salt to an open wound. I hope that future customers do not have to suffer from an inequality that does not seem too complex to solve.

FYI to all April Filers - I called the USCIS today and they said that the best case scenario (assuming the application has no RFEs) for reviewing and approving petitions filed in April was 3 months from now (middle of October). She reiterated, as other people have already stated here, that they are focused on December applications at the moment.

I don't know... 4-5 months sounds about right. When you think about it, once VSC is done fumbling with the file, everything moves a lot quicker at NVC and the Embassy itself, so a 6-7 month timeline overall would still be possible. As a worst case scenario, it isn't horribly bad.

They are handling files from December, but also files from March. I'm keeping my hopes up by watching that.


After reading a lot on the USCIS web site I see that they have publicly stated multiple times that their goal is to reach a five month processing time for each case by the end of this September (the government's fiscal year). My hunch is that anyone who answers the phone over there would stick to the press release. So if we are talking averages - I think that this means we will see some April filers starting to get approved in another 4-6 weeks and then the rest will straggle in. Does anyone know how some people are able to get their cases expedited? Is is a question of money or money +?

OMG - your situation is awful and I hope it gets sorted out. I have OCD from checking my status on Igor's list and was feeling sorry for myself because our estimated time of adjudication has slipped from mid August to beyond. Our wedding is planned for November and I am most likely going to have to move everything - so was pouting and pouting. Then I found these forums and started reading. After reading your posts, I feel stupid and self-centered. My fingers are crossed for you.


Haha Michele, don't feel bad because you are frustrated with the process, its not your fault I am here. But thank you kindly for your well wishes smile.gif

Today has been a bad day though, I once again had to pack my wedding gown into storage (which I brought last October) and in a few weeks our original wedding ceremony date (August 21) will be rolling past, Though Ill be honest, the one that is horrifying me at the moment is the 12 months since filing mark, I really hope that I don't I don't have to see that one through without our NOA2, i think i might break down and cry if that happens....


Have you heard anything new from your lawyer? I also hope you don't reach that one year mark - my thoughts are with you.
