September 08 K1 fillers

[Chuck and Grace 0]

I got it!!!!! I got it!!!!!! I got it!!!!! Our NOA2 came by SNAIL MAIL today dated 12/16/08!!! Our online status still says the case is pending from Sept. 2, 2008. What?!? I was so depressed last night when it was time for CSC to close and I still hadn't gotten anything. I about fainted when it showed up in the mail today!! I think that actually makes me the very first September filer to be approved...even though I got the notice late. Woohoo!!! I'm so excited!!! Good luck everyone!

Congrats Amy (again) - but I think I am not mistaken in saying congrats this time. Merry Christmas to you!!!!!!!!!

3 days next week, hopefully they will do something for the rest of us. I am a little mad about the whole deal. I requested the expedite on 11/12, but they still wont even answer the expedite request and now Sept people are getting approved. So I dont know what happened to my file, but they dont seem to be doing anything with it.

Same here CHuck...I got my NOA1 date for September 3rd.......and thats what the mailed date says is "September 3rd".....my last touch date was September 4th...I'm kinda worried about whats going on with mine. Then again I hope the G-325A for my Fiancee son isnt the reason

I am screwed! I know I didnt do a G325A for her daughter. I didnt know I needed it. Now I need to get it signed by her (in the Philippines), and get it here. Fortunately, I am going there this week, but I wont be back until the 4th, so even if they did something with my file, I will just get an RFE and have to wait until after the new year.

I wonder if they will take the G-325A by Email. I have a Tablet PC and she can sign on my computer. I could email it if I had an email address. Even fax it after signing.

Anyway, good luck to all. We have a few days before Christmas to hope for the best.

aljhel, you love this.

I called the National Call Center (again) today and was able to get their "high level support" guy, which turned out to be no help at all. But before I let him off the phone, I asked about the g325a for my fiance's daughter. I was going to see if I could send it in now or need to wait or if it was required.

He couldnt tell me if it was required or not. He said from looking at everything he didnt see a requirement for it, but if I wanted to send it in to be on the safe side I could. But since it needs to be signed, he said I could send it in without signature and they could have it signed when the visa would be issued. (assuming they ever process my case).

He said it looks like I was approved for expedite becuase they havent rejected the request and it has been 6 weeks since my request. So I asked if it is approved for expedite, why is it not being touched - he said "some cases just take longer than others" What does that mean? 20 minutes instead of 15? They are doing nothing with my expedite request and not even processing it anyway. Just makes me sick!

GOOD NEWS CHUCK! At least I got a touch 12/22/2008! Finally got something!. Hopefully it doesn't become an issue and get an NOA2 than an RFE. The G-325A For her son is On the way if it isn't already there.

Doesn't make any sense to me. You figured an epxedited request would give a red flag to take a look at your case and make a sound decision at that time. American Beauracracy at it's best!

aljhel, Happy to hear about your touch. It is probably a really good sign, but I have even better news

I GOT APPROVAL NOTICE EMAIL TONIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Finally!!!!!!!!!!!! So, I never sent in the G325A for her daughter and it didnt hold it up. Maybe you will be ok. Good luck!!!

Funny thing is, I was having such a bad night too, then I checked my email again just before I was going to sleep and there it was - I was just expecting more reply notices from VJ. It has been sitting there for a few hours!

AMY, Looks like you dont need to open that can up after all, but thanks for your support, it meant a lot.

THATS OUTSTANDING!!! I guess it's not much of a hold up either eh? Everywhere I looked it didn't say it was required, but I guess not?

Overall I wish you too the best of LUCK! I'm sure she will love Michigan Christmas! It's a real Christmas once you have snow!

Congrats Chuck & Grace! That's another good news for September filers.

Aljhel, it seems you will get your NOA2 soon too.

Congratulations to everyone who is receiving their NOA2s! It's so nice to see they're processing so many before Christmas! And good luck to the rest of us Being a 9/16 NOA1 myself, I feel like I have a while longer to wait!

By the way...on the USCIS site it shows that they have the 25th and 26th off...I know it's great to have a 4-day weekend but they even have to work on Christmas Eve! Props to them...

Actually , my touch was BAD NEWS. I got an RFE and I don't know what the hello it is . Real bad news for the holiday. How long does an RFE take for them to review it? It said there is a suspense for it. On top of that, what if I get a short notice deployment and not have time to send an expedited request in??? SHAFTED! IM REALLY FRUSTRATED AND DON'T KNOW WHAT THEY NEED! I SENT EVERYTHING IN ACCORDING TO THE CHECKLIST I GOT FROM A LAW FIRM!

You bascically provide everything that is instructed from your RFE.

Depending on the RFE item, they will probably take a fax and someone will be holding your file. Fax and expedite mail it to the person asking and they should finish quickly. Dont worry too much, and RFE just means they are looking at your file and it could go really quick from here.

Thanks for all the support guys. This has been a small group for the past months, but I am glad to see more Sept filers coming out of the woodwork now that things are moving. I hope you are all approved soon.

There weren't ANY NOA2s issued today?!?! Maybe I'm jumping the gun...
