If the petition goes to the FBI it has nothing to do with IMBRA, right?

Well.. at least I was told that mine is at Vermont.

Wow, if yours is at Vermont, it came there from NVC completely skipping the FBI.

So now you just simply wait for Vermont to send the RFE requesting what more they need, then you can send in the new 129F and your case will be back on its way yes?

Oh ok nevermind, I just saw Luis&Lauras post with the fact sheet explaing that all petitions make it to FBI no matter what.

The FBI security check is normal procedure that goes on in ALL cases.

Oh, that.

My has been through that already since it had been approved.

The only thing I miss is the RFE.

If the file needs to be there phisically, it´s because they need to get the envelope and touch it with hands.

So they are not going trhough any database to work on sending out the RFEs.

That explain why we have no pattern and why we won´t have any.

I wonder where mine is... No one with a NOA2 got an email about RFE yet.

I hope they get to this pile tomorrow.

Is this true? All members here who have mentoined that they finally got their RFE's, are all NOA1 but not NOA2 recipients??

If it is true it could give us an idea of how things are working.

I have both the NOA1 and NOA2 and havent recieved any email or letter mentioning the new RFE..

Yeah, unfortunately that´s true.

We are all in the same boat as you.

You are welcome to join us in another thread about RECALLED CASES.

Help us to get information about our situation and why none of us got a RFE yet.

I was told we will pretty soon, but everyone else (march, april, may and june) with only NOA1 got an update.

I was told we will pretty soon, but everyone else (march, april, may and june) with only NOA1 got an update.

............I have a feeling that the reason those with just NOA1's are getting them first is due to the fact that their petitions are still active there and accesible. Ours are probably in a huge stack somewhere. The faster they get the NOA1's out of the way the faster they get to us. I know it really frustrates me to see another RFE with a Receipt date months after mine, but we have no choice but to cheer them on and keep coming.

This last quote is taken from another thread called Recalled NOA2 people..http://www.visajourney.com/forums/index.ph...pic=18011&st=90

This guy usually sounds like he knows what he is talking about. That comment there in italics about why they havent gotten to sending out RFE's to those of us with NOA2's sounds like it may have some merit.

Here´s the RFEs we got so far:

VSC NOA1 RFE

Barros 05/30/06 06/19/06

Beccaogingi 06/06/06 06/19/06

Billsgirl 04/26/06 06/16/06

Ssica Molanay 06/01/06 06/19/06

So these are all IMBRA related, AND include only the people who are as far as NOA1... anyone with an NOA2 is not on that list.

I wonder if those who have NOA2 are going to have a different process instead because it does seem odd that none have recieved RFE's.

I hope that it gets on track for everyone (don't get me wrong I am happy to be among those who have recieved RFE email), cheers to us all and hoping that it goes quicker for everyone.

Good luck and speed to all.

Well it does kind of make sense because all the NOA1 dates on that list are from late April - late June, except for only one case in March.

So the NOA1 always comes to you from the service center. So, maybe the service centers are quickly cleaning out all new simple NOA1 petitions before opening the flood gates to the NVC who will pour back into the service center all of those old, now next level, (NOA2) petitions which the service center once already dealt with...

I mean like before it went.............VSC --> NVC --> Embassy Abroad....

Now its going...............................Embassy Abroad--->NVC--->VSC(cleaningout simpleNOA1's first)

Maybe that is obvious though, what I posted there. But, Ive never seen anything like this before where we have all just been thrown into a thick forest ,with blindfolds on, and we all have to try to help each other get through it by basically calling out a series of beeps and clicks to each other....

"follow the sound of my voice!!!.....no the other way!!!, watch out for that giant pit next to the tree with the pointy branches!!! help im stuck!!!" ...

The woman from Vermont also told me today that I should try and understand that this situation is odd for them too.

It had never happened before and they are trying to send as much RFEs as they can.

Eventually they will get to ours (if the applications is phisically there).

There is no different treatment for those with NOA2 and those with NOA1 (according to the officer).

She said they have thousands of applications there and it shouldn´t take long to get all sent out.

I think it really depends on where our applications is there.

Also, I´d like to say that there are two other people with NOA1 from March (but no NOA2) that got the RFE email.

One was QDilly and the other one I don´t remember.
