If you call the bank they should be able to look at the back of the cashed check and read off the receipt number to you. then you can go to this website and check your case status online. But first you'll want to create a member account.

http://www.uscis.gov/portal/site/uscis

Once you've created an account, you can add this petition to your portfolio and sign up for email alerts. Theses alerts should tell you when your case has been decided. But if you're like the rest of us, you'll be checking daily anyway...

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsGot Return Receipt today without Signature?!?
Did you use US Postal Service? I never got a return receipt in the mail. I just checked it online with USPS and there I saw that it was signed for on delivery. But I think you should be fine. Good luck.

the instructions include writing on the reverse side of the passport photos. they even ask that you write lightly so that it will not damage the photo. Always read the instructions 3 times.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports100 days since filing at TSC
Ok, so does this mean that petitions filed in Texas in April or May all were forwarded to California? Or does Texas still have pending K1 applications from those months that they will finish? Or are they finished with K1 visas altogether?

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports100 days since filing at TSC
Is Texas still processing K1s from before the zone changes and downsizing? Or did your petition get forwarded to another center?

I think it's routine. Most of us get a touch within a day or 2 of being put into the system.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress Reportsk1-visa NOA1 still waiting...

They probably told you to cancel your check and send in a new packet, so you have to pay the new fee for it too... :angry: just wait them out.. they have to get to it eventually.



Yeah when I emailed them that's what they advised me to do. Are they crazy! So I'll just wait. I'm glad I'm not alone. I got worried for a minute. When they told me maybe it was lost in the mail I got really mad because I got the receipt that someone did sign off the packet. And I got an email back from the USCIS and they don't see my name in their system. They said there is alot of people that filed that's why we haven't got anything. It's crazy. Now I guess it will be delayed a month or more.. Let's hope we all get our NOA1.


They actually advised you to cancel your check and resend the package?? That's pretty low. Best of luck to you. But I think you will be fine. Keep waiting for that check to be cashed. I wouldnt even really worry about getting the 1st NOA. Just getting the number is what counts. B)

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsAttention July Filer!!
You can't help falling in love if you're here in the States studying. I dont think it matters when you file as long as you are both legally able to marry and have sufficient proof of a loving relationship with intent to marry. Its not impossible for you to have a visa before Valentine's Day. Its just not wise to make plans on the date. Plan for the worst, hope for the best. Good luck. :thumbs:

I am sorry to hear that..
I understand how you feel right now..
We filed I129F at the end of June,it been rejected
in August and at the end of september our petition
arrived from uscis..

P.S.Will uscis give us a new case number or it will be the same,but case
staus will be changed???


Please fill in your timeline...and if you don't mind, can you tell us what the reason for rejection was originally. It might help future filers. thanks.




CSC said they shipped my entire petition back to me on October 2, but I've yet to receive it. (I live in San Francisco, so hopefully it will arrive today, although CSC says it may take up to 30 days)

Inside the package, they'll list the reasons behind the rejection. If it's something small, like a missing check box, I wish they would given me a courtesy call instead of wasting 2 months worth of wait.

I'll be sure to update my timeline once I get the package.

Sorry for the ranting, but I do appreciate your input and thoughts.




No. Sorry. That last comment and question was directed at "applewow". that's why I used her quote. I know that you cannot fill in your timeline yet.. wink.gif But if she does. it will help everyone. But thanks anyway, and good luck again!

Damn, sorry to hear that. sad.gif

Hopefully you made exact copies of your original packet. While you're waiting, go back through it and try to sleuth out why they might have rejected it. If you do figure it out, make whatever corrections you need to make and get your new packet ready. As soon as you get the notice from USCIS, verify that you've made all the corrections you need to make and get the new packet out the door.

Honestly I don't understand why they can't make this information available electronically. Would save everyone a lot of time and anguish.




Yes, I went through the copies, and there might be 2 issues that could be cause for the return...

1. my lawyer said only 1 page of the G325A was needed, not 4.
2. there's a section where they ask if you've been in the military, I put N/A.

But at this point, it's all speculation. I wont' know exactly the rationale behind the rejection until my packet arrives.

It's just difficult to swallow to lose those 6 weeks of precious time.


It's quite possible that both of these options were the cause for this rejection. Though, I'm nearly certain the G-325a is the real reason. It really does suck that they can't give you a courtesy call or something, telling you briefly what the problem is and how to fix it. For that large fee, you'd think that would be a reasonable service request. A quick little 3 minute phonecall could save sooo much time. It would have taken you one day to print 4 new copies, sign them and send them in. Sometimes, I want to punch USCIS in the nuts! Good luck to you and try to remain calm. I know it's tough.

How long is it actually with NVC? I can't remember off the top of my head. Isn't it like a week or so? And what do they do? Just repackage it with necessary forms for particular embassies and ship to beneficiary's country??

i just did a very quick search and the average time between NOA2 and interview date for vjers going through london appears to be 100 days...cutting it kinda close, but its certainly possible

best wishes to ya, and remember that part of the process is in your hands...return packet 3 as soon as you can and that will reduce your waiting just a bit!

Wow!! 100 days?? blink.gif I didn't see that. I really doubt it will actually take that long, but having each step ready and not wasting any time is essential. You're right about that. I'm assuming London will receive the case sometime before the end of the month. And then it's 60 days until christmas. Hmmm. Well, I'll keep my fingers crossed for you. Good Luck!
