I filed in August, and the case is still pending at the Missouri / National Benefits Center. I filed through H1-B, (not K-1), and was wondering if it's normal that the case hasn't been transferred to a local office... Given I've recently dealt with an RFE, I know it may take longer, but just wanted to see if anyone else can give some insights. Thank you!!

:wacko:

I am not sure on that one. I heard that K1's get transferred to California (don't quote me on that though). Also heard that the cases get transferred to the local office when time comes for the interview.

I've filed from a B2 visa - so not too sure how yours work.

good to see some movement in my absence. Still no sign of my card I did however recieve another CRIS update that a letter notifying me of my EAD approval.

Missing my parents after having them here for 10days. All the homesickness came back. Been trying to keep busy looking for jobs and on a positive note my father in law has given me a Buick for when I get my licence. It's not a great car but it goes. Used to be my eldest sister in laws before she went away for college.

@SHINING ANGEL...I'm so sorry to hear of your loss. I don't have any experience of my own and I can only begin to imagine how you most feel. The important thing right now is that you have your husband and you can get through the hard time together. I'll pray for you both.
