Congrats Rod and Rish!

 

Just curious, did you reach out to your congressman/senator?  Im curious to see if anyone who did not reach out to their congressman/senator has gotten approved at TSC. 

 

 

 

    No  we did not reach out to any Congressman/ senators.We just waited and waited and read all your posts here for updates.  And ofcourse  we prayed a whole lot too. My USC fiancee unfortunately didnt  know any of his  representatives:) hehehe

USCIS Service CentersTransferred file from vsc to Texas got touched today!!!!!!

Thank you Angelina for a very informative update. We always appreciate it.

 8,000 cases  that scare me a bit. Are these all I129F   petitions?  That seems to be  so many petitions  being  transferred.

  

 We wonder how will they  come to adjudicate them.  We are on our  6th month of waiting for NOA2.

 Let's hope they will come to prioritize our papers hence we  are pretty much beyond the processing time.

 

  Though  knowing  we are not alone in this journey,  we have very active and helpful fellows who are selfless

   in giving us  updates and encouragement;make  our waiting more tolerable .

    Let's  keep on our mantra:   NOA2  Approval !! NOA 2 Approval!!!

 

     Thank you very much!

Which USCIS  Office is this? that remains a question.:)   how long will the processing be? I remain hopeful it will be   done so soon. If they say "its now being processed" it could be that they are   starting to adjudicate it now   :)   Let's us stay positive!!!!     Lets this be our mantra.   K1   approval  sent! k1 approval sent!    :) good vibes to everyone out there!

A new update   i got few minutes ago. Different wording  no date mentioned.

 

Initial Review

The I129F PETITION FOR FIANCE(E) was transferred and is now being processed at a USCIS office. You will be notified by mail when a decision is made, or if the office needs something from you. If you move while this case is pending, please use our Change of Address online tool to update your case with your new address or call our customer service center at 1-800-375-5283.

I think I would  agree with you Leon and Mylen.Our cases   could just be  in TSC.  As what Norwood had said in this thread they had their petition trasfered in TSC in 2010. TSC   would most likely give the approval.


Rod and RishMalePhilippines2013-05-29 19:38:00
USCIS Service CentersTransferred file from vsc to Texas got touched today!!!!!!

 We got also the same message today.:) We wonder where the approval would come from.If it is from our local office, do they have trained adjudicators to  do that? Confusing indeed but we are still hoping  and praying for   a good result. 

  Thank you so much for all your updates. It make us feel we are not alone in this journey to NOA 2 approval.

When did you call? I just called at 5 and still didn't have our sad.png I feel sick.

Did you already pay your visa fee? You need to pay that first and wait 4-5 hours to schedule appointment.

Edit: nevermind I though you were trying to schedule appointment not track case.



Hi there Dustin and Janen:)     Call    again tonight, I'm sure they alreaday have it. Now i'm trying to  track my visa, i saw some posts here about visa tracking using your case number but I wonder why I cant seem to go thru.

Now I'm worried, since everyone is getting this now.

I didn't receive this and my NOA2 is from June 13. Sigh

   

  We have the same NOA 2 date  June 13

   

   We got  it last nite.I'm sure yours will be here today.

On July 10, 2013, we shipped this approved or re-affirmed case to the Department of State for visa processing. For more information, please contact them directly.

Saw this posting ... Are they a Texas transfer????

      

  Vivian and Warren   are really from Vermont and petition wasnt transferred to Texas. Who's the other one?  

   I am certain as  we speak no one from our batch of Dec and Jan filers  being transferred to Texas got  a case number yet.

    

     It would have been a  big relief in our part  to hear a transferred petition in our batch got a case number already.

      It would mean  ours  are on  their way too.  and  not having  to wait for 8 weeks from NOA2.

Anyone know if any of the VSC-TSC transferred cases got the NVC # yet? I saw someone reported theirs at NVC but no number.  We got the same message that it's up to an 8 week wait. When I spoke with DOS yesterday they said that USCIS is implementing some changes to their mailing process as of last Tuesday July 2 and that's why it's taking longer to get to NVC. Personally I think TSC is probably upset over taking on a case load from VSC...no one likes to pick up someone else's slack. These cases were transferred for "quicker processing" but they didn't tell us they were going to approve them and let them sit for a month before moving them on to the next step.  Hope they're not waiting for the first load of transferred cases to all be approved before shipping as some people's petitions may have complications that will take longer to approve. They just told me they are sent off in batches and they must not have enough to mail yet. Very frustrating! I saw today that a few couples from VSC (my original center) who are US-UK couples (like myself and fiancé) filed 2 weeks before us and they already have their interviews scheduled 13 days from now. This transfer has proved to be a huge challenge and set back for us all. I hope that this all makes us and yourselves a stronger couple in the end of it all.

 

 

      As far as i know  no one from TSC   got their Case Number yet. There were  3 of us who got  NOA 2   June 13, earliest in the batch  but just like the rest of us   who got approvals  in June ,we all are still waiting for NVC  to get us the case numbers.

   Recently NVC 's verbatim is 8 weeks.:(

I  get really frustrated here. My fiance called up NVC last night, gave our NOA2 date  which is June 13 .The rep  just told him 8-10 weeks after June 13, that's when  they get to  put us in their system. Another 10-14 business days after that when  my fiance gets to have the hard copy of the case number from the mail. My question is  ,  WHY WILL THEY HAVE  TO TAKE THAT LONNNNNNNNNNNNNGGGGGGGGGGGGG??????would the 7 months of waiting for NOA2 not enough?   we have to take another  2- 3 months just for a case number? I dont really understand why CSC and VSC can  get theirs in 7 to 10 days..

I was just told 8 weeks. #######. I'm going to explode.

hi there Dustin and Janen, we have the same NOA2 date  June 13 I'm so frustrated and it kinda ruined my day today  having to hear the 8 weeks waiting period.  This is   completely  ridiculous!!!  Our waiting seems to be never ending:(


Rod and RishMalePhilippines2013-07-02 06:55:00
National Visa Center (Dept of State)The Waiting room for fiancé visa case number is it 10 days or 20

 

It appears that NOA2s from June 13th at VSC are already in the system, but Vermont is close to the NVC in new hampshire. 

 

I'm June 13th NOA2, but like you was transferred to Texas. I'm hoping we get it this week. Please message me when you get yours; I'll do the same.

 

Edit: I was on hold while typing this. They still don't have ours. The guy was kinda a jerk. He asked me to read him the first paragraph of the NOA2. I did and he was like it says it went to the consulate. I was like but it goes to NVC first then the consulate. Then, he told me the standard 15 business day thing.

 

  Thanks Dustin and Janen  :) We havent called NVC yet. So maybe  we can call   by the end of the week that will  be  around 15 days after our NOA2. Yes lets keep ourselves posted.
