IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsAnybody transferred in August ?

I think they will start tranferring August cases from July 15nd.

They just started July fillers and they are so fast in tranferring cases.

 

I wish they approve cases insted of tranferring cases.

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsFor i-130 and 129F cases ( not transfer cases)

Hi, I would like to know that how many VJ members who filled both petition( 130 and 129f) did not get transfer yet 

From March to October.

My 130 Pd is 08/12 and 129f Pd is 11/14.

I was wondering that they might not transfer my 130 coz of my 129f late date.

Yes...
Expidite request saved me from longer wait.
My other 12th Aug fillers transferred to TSC and CSC.
They are still waiting.

I am August fillers , and they closed my 129f( nov14) and approved my 130 yesterday.

but my case was expedite.

But having long gap between two cases may affect longer time for approval

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsUSCIS Estimates vs VJ's - Time Capsule!

 

Thanks, I'm trying - sorry I couldn't remember your username when I was doing the report - I know how frustrating it was for you that somehow the fact that you had an expedite in the works slowed down your application - I couldn't believe it, so I felt I had to make some kind of comment about it. I'm so glad you finally got the approval, even though the "expedite" was a complete cluster****.

hmmmm Thanks from me too.

 

Also, march and Feb spreadsheet numbers  is not accurate.

coz many VJ fillers left their journey from the site for waiting too long. or after they got their noa2 they didn't came back for updates.

below 75% for march seems very inaccurate for me..

 


Deep35472MaleIndia2014-02-28 21:14:00
IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsUSCIS Estimates vs VJ's - Time Capsule!

 

On February 28, 2014, VJ data was as follows:

 

In the Immigration Timelines section, it said

Petitions with NOA1 dates as follows are currently being processed:

 

I-130s for IR1/CR1 and K3 Visas:

CSC: August 14, 2013

VSC: June 29, 2013

TSC: June 10, 2013

NBC: June 24, 2013

 

This data is less helpful than it once was, since USCIS has clearly abandoned their FIFO protocol. We have noticed these numbers jumping back and forth as the service centres continue to work parallel paths, catching up on old files and also working ahead. It's just kind of luck of the draw as to when the first person to report in a given day sent in their petition.

 

Igor's list

Most of the recent approvals (by about an 8-1 ratio) are from August. Throughout the Igor's List reporting there is a little bit of movement from March, April, May, a couple of (presumably expedited) approvals from November and January, and none of the last 15 from any service center were from June or July.

Again, Igor's list (and our timelines) do not seem to be successfully tracking transfers, so almost all the data is on the NBC page of Igor's list since almost all petitions from last year were sent there first.

 

Transfer Spreadsheet Info

 

 

July Transfers were completed early this month, and have been seeing quick responses from CSC, reasonably quick responses from TSC (since about mid-month) and NSC has just recently started to send approvals (and RFEs)

 

August transfers seem to have been completed as of the beginning of this week. The majority of August transfers went to CSC, a minority went to TSC, and none seem to have gone to NSC. 

 

September transfers began this week, too, and despite a strange jump where they transferred the first week of September and then there were a few from the 3rd week, skipping the second week, they have seen several transfer days and it looks good for them to be transferred quickly. This month some files are being transferred to NSC again, so hopefully that is a suggestion that NSC might be working through their backlog and may speed up processing.

 

Looking at the transfer spreadsheets (this data is even less representative, since it requires 2 levels of compliance (it doesn't automatically update based on timeline updates, and people have to sign up for it and update it themselves)

 

Of February's reported transfers, 80% have NOA2 - (CSC 100%, TSC 91%, NSC 76%)

Of March's reported transfers, 71% have NOA2 - (CSC 86%, TSC 46%, NSC 74%) This data is virtually unchanged from last month.

Of April's reported transfers, 86% have NOA2 - (CSC 94%, TSC 79%, NSC 89%)

Of May's reported transfers, only 56% have NOA2 - (CSC 100%, TSC 58%, NSC 60%, Not reported 27%)

Of June's reported transfers, 46% have NOA2 - (CSC 85%, TSC 64%, NSC 36%, Not reported 14%)

Incidentally, May and June sent a disproportionate number of  petitions to NSC - more than half of May and slightly less than half of June transfers went there.

Of July's reported transfers, 71% have NOA2 - (CSC 79%, TSC 93%, NSC 28%) 

Keep in mind that July sent the majority of petitions to CSC, so 79% is A LOT of petitions)

Of August's reported transfers, 49% have NOA2 - (CSC 66%, TSC 44%, NSC didn't get any, and there's one NBC approval of the world's slowest expedite)

 

So the data suggests that USCIS is continuing along their path to get the average down to 6-7 months fairly soon. We can expect to see the remainder of September transferred somewhere around the middle of March, (there's usually a slowdown right around the time when the numbers are "updated" on the USCIS website) and then probably they'll transfer the October filers who are still at NBC (about mid-October they started sending them direct to the service centers, so after that point, presumably there will be no more transfers to worry about).

 

And the people from March to June are still kind of lost in the ether - I could hardly believe it when I looked at the transfer data and realized that there's hardly any difference in March's numbers since last month! I mean, I hope some of that is people not updating the spreadsheet anymore, but really!

 

I'm interested to see what happens with the September transfers going out to TSC.  We know they still have an enormous backlog, but will they start following CSC's lead and just jump ahead and process those files, or will they leave them alone until they're caught up?

 

Overall, if VJ's data is a representative enough sample, (and USCIS is honest) the processing date that will be posted around April 20 should be somewhere in mid - late June (although that's literally an average, since June hasn't been getting much attention at all - only the months before and after!) 

 

Does anyone have anything else that should go in the Time Capsule?

 

 

So you seems doing something good for everyone..

and  you said one approval from Nbc in august filler as worlds slowest expedite..

it was me but I didn't get your line , lol.

Yes, Saylin.

Now I knew VJ very well.

So as stated earlier, I have a lawyer. He never told me I will need a police clearance certificate for my wife during AOS or IV package. Mine were received on the 12 of march. 

 

I haven't heard back from NVC yet, I have been reading on this thread people sending in PCC with the Packages. Will I get a checklist and my process will be delayed?

No friend.

 

You call tell NVC that you will carry Original PCC at interview consult office.

it's not required to send PCC with other packages.

Unfortunaetly you will not be told why. You will get the run around and it could take weeks to months. I have a friend who went through this last year.

 

She was actually waiting for case complete at NVC and their petition was requested back at USCIS. It took from September to December to finally get her petition back to NVC. And guess what all her documents the ORIGINALS her AOS her IV package all gone. So she had to start all over taking months she finally got case complete in February and got a April interview and all turned out okay. They just lost alot of time.

 

When she called USCIS they said nothing. Many speculated it could be a missing paper USCIS forgot to attach (Highly unlikely).

 

Really sorry all you can do is stay on top of it keep calling and keep an eye on your petition and i pray you have a duplicate copy just in case.

Thanks for this information.

I thought I am the one only who get this mess from USciS.

To my fellow indians and anyone else who can help with this question...

 

I got a checklist from NVC today stating this

 

 

 

______10 - PASSPORT POLICE CERTIFICATE:____________________________
 
Indian Police Clearance Certificates should be obtained as follows:
 
? All Indian IV applicants aged 16 and above, residing in India, should obtain police
certificates from the local Passport Office. 
? Indian passport holders applying for visas outside India should obtain a statement from their
local embassy or consulate confirming they have no criminal record. 
? Non-Indian IV applicants residing in India should obtain police certificates from the District
Police Station serving their area of residence.
? Indian police certificates are not available for foreign (non-Indian) applicants applying
outside India.
 
I did not send in the PCC in my IV packet because the Vadodara Office would not give it without a checklist. After receiving this checklist today, I called NVC on two separate occasions, and I was told the same that, If Mumbai Consulate is going to handle my case, I don't need to provide a PCC to NVC. They say that the beneficiary can bring this to the interview. Anyone here can confirm this?
 
Would it be worth while for my wife to obtain the PCC tomrrow and send me a scan of it and just mail NVC a scanned copy? Will that accomplish anything? 
 
Please advice.....

 

Send NVC to scanned copy and let them know that your wife will bring original copy to Mumbai.

It's completely fine with them.

And I didn't think you could expedite until you had case numbers. You can always call NVC up and ask!

I think we could expedite without case number..

I asked this info to NvC this morning and they told me to email all below information to them.

 

1) MSC number.

2) Beneficiary and petitionary name, Address and birthdate  

3) Reason for expedite and attach all available proof.

 

if your expedite get approve than you will have your case numbers quickly.
