August 29 who knows they say that but I'll believe it when I see it but march seems pretty accurate
 
Wow you get all the luck speaking to a tier 2!, did he give any indication as to when? Also what is youPD again?

 

 

Exactly, i think though it all depends on where you get transfered, if it is CSC, at the current pace March is great! if TSC, i doubt it, NSC no way, they are still on April!

 

I would like to see the August filers transfer this week to believe it!!

Are workers at the local (London) consulate off also? or do they only go by the local holidays does anyone know?

Maybe I am missing something, I come to this website for help and information in processing my petition and eventual application for my wife and daughters VISA.  SOmetimes like all of us feel it is too slow and taking way too long-

 

seeing other peoples NOA2- is VERY encouraging-- 

 

Maybe I am looking in the wrong place?  is there an easier way to find this information- or is the FORUMS for some other purpose.

 

I don't understand the pages and pages of posts that do not provide any pertinent information -- I am not worried about RANK in VISA JOURNEY- I am worried about WHEN I can expect to get my petition passed on to the NVC and WHAT if anything I can do to prepare for that day so the time wasted in the NVC is minimal.

 

I must admit- when I have to go through page after page after page to find ANY news of relevance- it is NOT working for me- --

 

Maybe I am a wet noodle- or a party pooper but the website is getting difficult to maneuver and supplying little or no relevant information-

 

Just my humble opinion- and IF I can FIND information that I am looking for faster - maybe I just need to KNOW WHERE that can be found- and maybe the FORUMS is for other purposes??

 

Hey, if it is not working for you don't use it. This forum is for information sure, but this thread is for August i130 filers, people who want to talk to others about their experiences, their pain and get a little comfort on their situation. If you are looking for something specific, search the VJ site there are many dedicated threads for many topics and this will provide you all the detail you want without having to engage in chat.

 

It is quite funny that you say you are not interested in "rank" but have no idea what it is, the rank is a thread on a USICS owned site which we are all commenting on so that people, much like yourself, can be tell USCIS what they feel in the hope that they will listen and speed things up, reuniting people with their loved ones. There are 346 topics and the treatment of USC's for the i130 is topic number 8, a great achievement from the VJ members in just 3-4 days.

 

This conversation gives hope and comfort to a community of people who are living without their life partners, this is perhaps the hardest thing to do, so if i have to scan through a few pages to find things so that others can be that slightly happier, then so be it.

 

Personally, I think it would be great if you joined the discussion

The long and short of the reasoning isn't something that would give anyone else problems. That's all I'll say about that. wink.png

 

He didn't mention any problems at all with pulling the I-130 and refiling. The only worry he had was that we were going to travel to the US between now and when we got the visa approved as sometimes POE can be difficult for those that file DCF. But, we didn't plan on going back until July, and crossing fingers we'd have this process done by then. 

 

We're getting the new docs in the mail to London on Monday morning. 

 

Cool! let me know how it goes, my wife is on a Tier 4 visa here and I am glad this counts.... DCF can be short!

Just a quick update from us. We spoke with our lawyer tonight and we're pulling the I-130 currently with the NBC and going through DCF. Thank you everyone in Aug for their listening, help and overall company. I'll still be watching this thread to make sure that things move in your favors as well. 

 

I was going to write to you tonight, What did your lawyer say about why they didn't mention this before? We are preparing an new petition also, but have to wait until 28th Feb to meet the 6 months residency requirement..... no NVC to deal with

 

..... Did they say pulling the i130 and re-filing straight away would be an issue?

After studying on VJ, stories of members that got denied at POE, and also seeing at work people that have been sent back (I work for an airline at ATH airport) and talking to them, there are two major factors that play a role in if you will get denied or not.
 
1. If you have a job in your country of residence or not, and
2. The length of your previous visits and the frequency of them.
 
For example, entering for 90 days, leaving the US for 3 months and trying to re-enter again. That starts to raise warning bells for the CBP.
 
I know that the fact that I work for the airline I fly into the US with helps, I wouldnt be entitled to their free tickets if i didn't and CBP officers know this.
Also I think it helps that in the 2 years I have been flying back and forth, the total amount of days I have stayed in the US have not exceeded 100 days.
 
Of course, that doesn't mean that every time I try to enter I wont be pulled into a secondary interview, but I have enough evidence that I think I could convince the CBP officer that I am in no way intending on staying.
 
Fingers crossed for this time around!













What about if we have no job (per say) , but are full time postgrad research students? Both my wife and
I are at York doing marketing research, we have a long house lease here also etc etc, will this get flagged?
it cost me £20k for her to study here (non EU's don't get grants) so surely they could see I'm not THAT desperate
to get into the US that I would waste £20k!!

Also my trips over the last 2 years have been 5, and for 3-10 days in total (Christmas, budiness trips and her brothers wedding). I am british if that makes a difference

Are my chances ok?

Arrived at IAD POE, conversation went as such:

Me: Good evening Sir

Officer: Good evening, purpose of your visit?

Me: Vacation

Officer: Who are you staying with?

Me: Family, My husband.

Officer: What things are you bringing into the US?

Me: Some olive oil and some presents.

Officer: What kind of presents?

Me: Some towels.

Officer: Why in the world are you bringing towels to the US? We have them here!

Me: They were presents from our wedding reception, my husband has more use for them than me.

Officer: How long are you staying?

Me: 3 and a half weeks.

Officer: Place your right hand here....

 

Thats it. Entered without a problem.

 

Wow, my lawyer painted me a completely different picture of what that would look like.....

My husband and I have resigned ourselves to the fact that we are just going to have to wait till USCIS feels that it can start working on our petition. This isnt going to happen any faster, no matter how much we wish for it.

We made a pack last night that we will start focusing on things that are in our control, like me visiting him in the US in 6 days, planning for his trip to Greece in April, looking for a new place for him in the US, trading in his car for something with better mileage and so on...

 

I don't have control over USCIS or their processing times, its time to focus on things I can control.

 

Good for you, have you been to the US since your i130 was submitted?

Same here ... our first wedding anniversary was yesterday and we missed out on that ! i`ve been crying for like a week,i know i`m over reacting but its really unfair ,and you my dear are pregnant ! i can only imagine how you feel !

 

Best of luck to all of us !

 

Izzy

 

 

Guys, we know its hard and we know USCIS are fudging the numbers to hit their targets, but try not to get worked up over it, it wont do you any good. USCIS is probably the worst agency on earth and what they are doing now i can't believe is not flagged as being criminal. Its quite ironic, in the UK the rues are much harsher, but we prioritise UK citizens over all other applications. US land of the free indeed...

 

Anyway, us i130 filers are just hitting the 5 month mark now, and we all saw this was at 8.7 (say 9) when we started. We are seeing transfers and getting worked up a bit (me included), USCIS may well not be transfering any more, but i cant see how they would leave out Aug-Oct, how could they? We will be transferred soon. The ones that went directly to the service centres will perhaps have to wait???? The point is, no-one knows, and with USCIS giving bullsh^t numbers and will only file a service request based on a 3 month old data set, we just have to wait, hoping that we wont be screwed....


EastyoMaleUnited Kingdom2014-01-18 06:22:00
IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsAug 2013 I-130 filers

 

Whether or not we get transferred, USCIS will amaze us one way or the other. I was just hoping and wishing Lee's summit and Overland park employees dont clip on unemployment benefits and rather earn their bread and butter approving us! It will only help us and the economy!

 

Thats IF it even opens. To be honest, it makes sense that they cut off at some point in anticipation of this opening and starting to approve petitions.....

 

.... Lets see, i don't think USCIS does nice surprises!


EastyoMaleUnited Kingdom2014-01-17 15:42:00
IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsAug 2013 I-130 filers

At some point they had to/or will stop transferring as the new ones are going to the service center. I am thinking would it be good to make the cut off for transfer or sit here and as soon as Lee summit or Overland Park are up and running we get approved. Maybe they keep Aug-Oct?

 

Wishfull thinking!, but i like it!

Yes, when you get to NVC stage they'll send you instructions listing the documentation you have to provide with your application. So you'll use that checklist of documentation specifying the police cert to get your CNCC, which will be sent right to London.

 

Thanks BOS_LHR, your a star!

 

I have been speaking with USCIS in London, who by the way are actually very good, and i think we will DCF at the end of Feb when we qualify. He even said he will take our application and email that they will accept it before i have to withdraw my other one. I think that the process in the US is going to take so much time, this way will be quicker and cleaner......


EastyoMaleUnited Kingdom2014-01-17 14:47:00
IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsAug 2013 I-130 filers

 

It seems like you use the checklist from NVC rather than requesting a letter from the embassy, take a look here: http://hongkong.usco...v_polclear.html. Might be worth clarifying with someone in the regional forum just to be sure.

 

What an amazing pain in the... 

 

Yep, just more delays..... however it says..

 

A photocopy (for each applicant) of the letter from NVC which contains his/her name and the checklist of documents necessary for obtaining a visa (the one that references the need for police certificates);

 

I am not sure, as i have not got it yet, but does the NVC send you a letter with these details on anyway, and thus i can just use this?


EastyoMaleUnited Kingdom2014-01-17 14:34:00
IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsAug 2013 I-130 filers

 
lol, they lack that sort of generosity I think. The DS-260 only asks for the month and year when you list your residency, if you have to list June-June I'd definitely recommend getting the HK cert as well. 


I had a feeling that would be the case, it's such a pain getting one for HK if you are not there.
Plus the UK now charges £70 for finger prints and i first need a letter from the embassy!

Any ideas how I get a letter from the embassy (with my name specifically noted) that I need this check?




EastyoMaleUnited Kingdom2014-01-17 14:04:00
IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsAug 2013 I-130 filers

 

Yes, that's correct if you were over the age of 16 when you lived there. 

 

Actually i am 11 days off, my HK work visa started 25th June and i was made redundant on the 14th June, so thats less than a year.... If they see it this way lol

I have just seen that apparently i need to provide a police certificate for any country i have live in for more than 12 months, over an above my UK one. As i live in HK for 14 months i guess i need to get this one also?

 

Does anyone know this to be correct?

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsAug 2013 I-130 filers

We need to do something - this is utterly acceptable. A letter should be sent

 

Yep, roll up who wants to lead us :)

 

Lets also see what USCIS have to say when they do their updates. However with the number fudging they are doing, don't expect much (if any) movement on the Feb 13th date (insult)


EastyoMaleUnited Kingdom2014-01-17 12:08:00
IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsAug 2013 I-130 filers

Yep, all they care about is the processing date. None of those other averages mean anything to them, nor are they basis for filing a service request.

 

Here are the first, second, and third letters. The first two were coordinated in advance, but the third was in reaction to the updated data they posted last month and we pulled that effort together in just a day.

 

Thanks, did you get any replies?.

 

So i take it the method was that everyone printed this out and sent it themselves? Where did the addresses of the cc list come from?


EastyoMaleUnited Kingdom2014-01-17 11:04:00
IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsAug 2013 I-130 filers

 

They won't get a flood of service requests if they keep holding back the processing date to keep very few people eligible =\ Filers in March and April are struggling with this now -- they've been waiting a hugely long time, but that date is set to Feb 13 so they have no recourse available. The average processing time says 8.7 months, so they've passed that, but USCIS will won't allow service requests because they're treating Feb 13 as the only bar they've set. 

 

Their official procedure is to process according to first in, first out. You can even find where it says so in the adjudicator's manual online. But that's blatantly not what's happening. Take a look at the CR1 timelines on VJ, you'll see approvals even within individual service centers are jumping around. The last 10 at NSC went from April, to May, to March, to May, to April. Texas is even more all over the place. There's no pattern discernible here, it's just chaos. That being the case, I don't think it's possible yet to predict what will happen for August. April filers are still significantly held up while May-July are seeing random batches of approvals. If some kind of rhythm or regularity emerges we can try to do some forecasting.

 

As far as a letter goes, I've been involved writing the past two and I'm happy to help with future efforts. Whether or not they result in action directly visible to us, I for one couldn't bear simply sitting through the process without knowing I had exercised every option available to me. There is no stone I would leave unturned when it comes to ending this painful separation.

 

So it is not the "average time" that dictates service requests but the data of the data that is 3 months out of date! WHAT A JOKE!!! What is this agencies problem?

 

Can you post copies of the other letters that were sent please?

EastyoMaleUnited Kingdom2014-01-17 10:27:00
IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsAug 2013 I-130 filers

 

The problem is that USCIS essentially does what it wants with its data. I've been following I-130 threads for over a year now, and at no point in that time have USCIS' wildly fluctuating estimates tallied with user experience here on VJ. There has been a random smattering of approvals across the months, and at first it was mostly CSC blazing through its petitions, but now there are additional outliers. Three Texas approvals have happened for mid-June filers this week, for instance, while earlier filers at the same center are skipped over. Things like that lead me to believe there's still some kind of data manipulation going on. I think if USCIS wants its average processing time to be 5 months again by May, they can make it happen -- but not by processing everything that's out there. They'll achieve it by balancing the processing of older petitions with newer ones to meet their numbers, a "fake it 'til you make it" sort of strategy. I hate to be a conspiracy theorist but there is simply no way they're adhering to a first in, first out policy, and it's hard not to see a certain intent in that. The average processing time shouldn't be relied on as an indicator of their true performance, and the current processing date is useful only insofar as it allows petitioners to file service requests. I hope that these figures will become more meaningful in the future, but I recommend looking at the processing volume and trends chart alongside user timelines on VJ to make guesses at what's going on.

 

But wont this approach just cause them more pain in the long run with excessive service requests?

 

Based on your knowledge, when do you think we will see August approvals? I have heard everything from March to June!

And i agree with you, they are fudging the numbers big time, however i thought that they had to process in the order they were received?

 

My PD is August 22, I would really like to think i could get my visa in hand by October 2014....

A good, quick way to assess current approvals is on the timeline page: http://www.visajourn...tion=2&sortby=2

 

Check out the bar graph on the right. While no month ever really hits 100% (due in large part to users simply never returning to update their info), 80-90% is a fair benchmark for when a month is mostly complete at USCIS. You'll see both April and May have a pretty substantial number of pending petitions to go through. According to the transfer sheets, April transfers are 64% approved and May are about 26%. 

 

So USCIS are roughly mid April/May for approvals..... Let me ask you as you seem very knowledgable...

 

1) What do you make of the recent ammout of July Approvals, there have been many

 

2) Do you think USCIS are anywhere near reaching the "5 Months by May" they said they would?

I hope so buddy.
If not they'll do it on Monday

I bet you that transfers will resume the next day - do you agree?

Nope, I think they are about to screw us.... I think it will be mid feb before we
see any transfers

 



This USCIS ride is really confusing. Have April/May been approved?
