Create a VJ timeline to track your case and get estimated approval dates :)

[TimandJoyce 1]

How do you get an estimated approval date from the VJ timelines? Sorry, this may be a dumb question.

That is the part in your timeline that says "Based on the timelines, your I-129F may be adjudicated as early as ____".

Where exactly do you read that? When I go to my timeline, it just takes me to the area of editing, and doesn't say anything about adjudicating as early as..... What am I missing?

You can create a timeline here and track your case (as well as get estimated approval dates and much more):

http://www.visajourney.com/timeline/intro.php

Once you create a timeline make sure to update it as your case progresses .

When we send or post a reply, why does our timeline not display, like we can see other peoples timeline in different colour etc, we cannot see our on our post.

Pls help

you have to file first the papers to USCIS.. then you have to wait for your NOA1. As you get your NOA1, thats the time that you can fill up your timeline. Simply, go to MY ASSISTANT on the upper part of this website then click EDIT or ADD MY TIMELINE..

Timeline here is not an assurance that your papers will be completed on the said date.. It always changes like mine.. Dont rely too much on your timeline here in VJ...

I think they meant why does their timeline not show up in their signature block.

You have to manually enter the dates into your signature block, from the 'My Controls' panel.

Hey guys,

Can you please lead us or tell us and define what each of the Timeline entries mean?

I've searched for instructions, with no luck.

We also see the word touched. How do you know that your paperwork is being touched?

Service Center - Closest USCIS to you

Consulate - Fiance Country/City where US Embassy Located

I129F Sent: Date sent Application

I-129F NOA1 : Notice of Action - Application received by USCIS (Mail & email)

I-129F RFE(s) : USCIS needs more information from you. (Mail & email)

RFE Reply(s) : When you send info back for review.

I-129F NOA2 : Notice of Acion - Application approved! (Mail & email)

NVC Received : NVC received application from USCIS - CASE Number

NVC Left :

Consulate Received :

Packet 3 Received :

Packet 3 Sent :

Packet 4 Received :

Interview Date :

Visa Received :

US Entry :

Marriage :

Comments :

Processing

Estimates/Stats : Gives an estimate time of approval of application or how long USCIS processing time took.

Those that have been there done that... Would be a great help.

If there are instructions I'm overlooking a link would be helpful.

I'm looking for how we're notified, or how we can find out.

Thanks my VJ friends!

Check out the K-1 flowchart to understand how the process works and what each of your entries means. In fact, take the time to read through all of the information posted at the top of these forums to familiarize yourself with the process. You will not regret it.

After you have sent your I-129f petition in you will receive an NOA1 (aka I-797). On this form will be either an EAC or a WAC #. This is your case number for the initial petition stage of the process and it is used to track your case. You can also get this number from the back of your cashed check.

Once you have this number you can register with uscis.gov website to track your case. It will state that your case is pending until it is either approved or until you receive an RFE.... but now and then you MAY (or may not) see the 'last updated' date change... this means you are 'touched'. Each file, after arrival is given a bar code that adjuticators are to scan each time they are working on, or even just moving, a petition. We know that not all adjuticator's are created equally and not all scan so not to worry if you never see the date changed.

This is what we call 'touched'...

How do you get an estimated approval date from the VJ timelines? Sorry, this may be a dumb question.

I had assumed that the estimates were based on further input from the members here. As members update their time lines I thought the estimated times would reflect the new input. But I know, the old joke. One should never assume, you make an ####### out of you and me...as%-u-me. Meaning ME! That was the reason for a more accurate estimate, the more input the better the output. Estimates are just that though.

Isaac and I sent in our packet. It was received on March 27, 2009. We received a letter I179c which is a notification letter letting us know that our packet was received. Here we go, this is the beginning of our visajourney, but our journey has been almost one year!!!! Time flies. We are enjoying getting to know one another, and going through the things that people in relationships go through!!! We love one another, and will continue to allow our relationship to reach various levels of love.

Just a quick question to anyone who can answer..

Where can I put my date of Marriage so that it appears in my time line?..

I tried searching everywhere couldn't find the location or field to enter the date..

To MOD: if you can fix this problem for me can you please update this from my time line below in my signature.

Thanks a lot in advance.

I thought I would add what is below in this pinned area so it doesn't get buried in the general topics.

Received my email notification of NOA2 from CSC on 4/03.

Call automated number for NVC and no record of it being received yet - 9 business days.

I entered my WAC # on the I-797 NOA2 notice I received in the mail in the automated setup.

Do I have to wait for the 4 weeks until I call to speak to a warm body? Seems to me most people are showing much shorter times from Service Center to NVC.

Reply:

You need to speak to a person at NVC. They probably already have it and will tell you if it has been sent on to the foreign consulate yet. The automated system does not work for K visas.

Final post reply by me:

Thank you for great advice. Just called moments ago. Received and sent already to USEM, Russia, on 4/13.

Like I said a couple of posts up you have to manually enter your timeline into your signature block under the 'My Control' tab.
