November Filer, still no NOA2???

[Ximena 0]

Hi I am Ximena from Chile and my USC fiancee and I are also November filers... the only thing that has happened is my fiancee (USC) rec'd a notice for his biometric interview in Dallas.

The USCIS website has never changed... still says...

On November 6, 2007, we received this I129F PETITION FOR FIANCE(E), and mailed you a notice describing how we will process your case. Please follow any instructions on this notice. We will notify you by mail when we make a decision or if we need something from you. If you move while this case is pending, call customer service. We process cases in the order we receive them.

The USCIS website (https://egov.uscis.gov/cris/jsps/Processtimes.jsp?SeviceCenter=VSC) says they are processing Nov 17 applications... if ours was rec'd Nov 6 and no word... is something wrong???

Anyone have any thoughts or comments?

Gracias!!!

The website dates are at best a very poor guideline. Many of us end up outside of their processing dates before we get our NOA2s. You are only a few days outside of the dates, but since you are now outside of the date you can call USCIS and ask them to investigate:-). Is it usual now (after IMBRA) for the US fiance to have a biometrics appointment? I haven't heard of this, but if that is the case, security checks from biometrics can really add a lot of time to an application. It can be several months just waiting for the proper security information to come back and be matched with the file. I would definitely get in contact with USCIS - or have your fiance do it since he is the one in the States - and ask them to check up on your file. It may just 'shake things loose'. Good luck.

That is odd. You should have heard something by now. It is a good idea to keep in contact with them. I definitely would call. I would ask if there is a delay due to RFE or any other issues that you can think of.
