It's most likely much too soon for anything to have happened with the RFEs. Vermont has started to post on some K1 applicant's online case status that their RFE has been mailed out, but that makes sense since the people who had approved petitions returned from the foreign consulate were all from Vermont.

The other touches for K1s came from the big transfer of the bulk of petitions originally filed in Nebraska. There were touches when they announced the transfers two weeks ago and then again yesteday and today when they had apparently gotten around to opening the mail.

It doesn't seem likely that anyone will actually receive RFEs in the next few days - since they are mailing out 10,000 of them (that figure apparently only reflects the K1 applicants) it's unlikely that they will all go in the mail at once. Hopefully by next week . . . fingers crossed

I did get a touch June 13th, and I don't think it had to do with the posting of my check since it cleared my bank account June 8th.

I'm not getting too excited yet though. :D

They don't typically send you an email unless there's something to report (i.e., petition approved, etc.)

Our I-129f for K3 was touched on 6-13 and today, 6-17

But, no RFE yet and Im registered for email notification.

Man, lets hope they dont enforce the K3 imbra thing.

It sure looks like the touches are in preparation to send out the RFEs - that's what's happening with the K1s anyway and since everything indicates K3s are affected (not saying I agree with it), it seems to be the case.

BTW, they don't generally send emails unless something big happens like they transferred your case or actually approved you. Otherwise, it's just change of status updates on the online site.

Just a hunch..... after USCIS telling me to wait until Sept. 13 (over 180 days processing) to call back and after having my Congressman's office telling me not to bother with the I-129f any longer, I get the feeling they have fleeced us all out of $170. Hey...those folks can take CR1.....etc....

I agree, my case has not been touched since they received it - once to change my address and that's it. At least Vermont and Nebraska are doing something (well they are ***touching***), CSC is still and quiet.

The funniest thing is we can complaint all we want it's not going to change the fact that we have to wait....according to the timeline stats my i-130 should be approved at the end of July and it seems like that might get my hubbie to US right before my Birthday, which is great!

It seems like K3 was a waste of money and time, and veeery nerve-racking if I may add.

Good luck to all , don't give up hope!

They may turn around ang give K3 and K1 priority in few weeks because of the hold up. I am sure they are aware it is a problem.

Maybe "no news" is " good news".

I am kinda feeling jealous of K1 applicants who filed to VSC.... I got married first to speed up immigration process and look what happens. Lets hope that MSC starts sending out RFE soon....
