I-130 August 2012 Filers

[akingandqueen 0]

Alas! As you have foretold, I still cannot submit an e-Request because USCIS says I'm "within processing time"... even though I have waited for 5 months!

However, according to this post, CSC's processing time for I-130 (Citizen for spouse) now seems to be 5 months plus 22 days.

So it seems I must wait until February 1st, 2013. But until then, I'll try to submit an e-Request every day anyway.

Yah man I too can't open a stupid SR. They told me the same thing HOWEVER you should ask them to escalate your call and transfer to tier2. That way you will speak to an immigration officer at your center where your file is (like Vermont, California, Texas, etc...) I did the same thing and the lady there told me that my file is all good it's just too much work load at Vermont and I should hear something from them within 30 days Give it a try and let us know how it goes. Wish you all the best

I am an August 7th 2012 filer, received NOA1 on Aug 10, 2012....and still waiting for NOA2.

[fav13259 1]

Niyapravi, my NOA1 is 8/7/12 no luck for me either. I called in 12/7/12 and they told me not to call unless I don't hear from them in the next 2 months. So it looks like I'll be calling 2/7/13. If you call and different response please let me know

Sure fav13259....my case is @ the CSC...where is your case filed at?

[fav13259 1]

Same CSC

Just out of my curiosity.....as i was going through the timelines, i came across an interesting fact which was people who filed both I-130 and I-129F, got their approvals on the same day....is that a coincidence or is it the way that works?

That's how it works.

see K-3 administratively closed - http://www.visajourney.com/news/2010/02/07/department-of-state-to-close-k-3-visas-if-i-129f-and-i-130-petitions-approved-and-received-together/

for the fallout.

What do you put in place of the mailing zipcode of an e-request? Is it our mailing zipcode or the one that we have mailed the visa petition to?

We got notification of our NOA2 today, 137 days from NOA1. Hope you all hear something soon

Put your mailing zipcode.

Congrats! It's good to see another NBC transfer being approved.

Non-NBC transfers (like myself) need to wait 175 days before we can submit an e-Request to have our case looked at.

Today is day 140 for me. I have no idea when I can put an e-request in but I have tried and no luck (of course im still under 5 months). I dont know what Im gonna have to do...maybe ill have to pick up the phone finally and make a call to the customer service center and see whats up!

Yup, it's day 158 for me and e-Request still doesn't work (it says I'm within processing times).

There's only 17 more days until I reach 175 days when the e-Request should work for me! (I hope)

Put your mailing zipcode.

thanks.

how come I-130 (US Citizen filing for a spouse) is not under the current timeline of the CSC processing times?
