I'm just confused about the I-129F petition and the Nebraska processing center. I mailed the initial application just over a week ago at the Nebraska center (I live in Illinois); now I'm seeing references to the fact that the Nebraska center no longer processes K-1 visas? On the USCIS website it still indicates that I should file in Nebraska, but I've noticed that the latest processing times table for NSC no longer includes I-129F petitions.

Can anyone explain to me what's going on? If Nebraska is no longer processing K-1s, will I automatically be reassigned to the CSC, or will it possibly go somewhere else? Will they send the petition back to me, or will they forward it automatically? Do you think this will substantially delay the process, or will it really matter?

Any information will be greatly appreciated; I've never posted here before, but this website was the single most important/best resource I found while preparing my application, so I trust that if anyone can tell me you all can :-)

Don't worry - you sent it to the right place. Chances are you will be transferred although not everyone has been. If you are - be in for a long wait. Either way, good luck!

It has been taking up to 3 weeks to get answer from CSC on NOA1s with petitions forwarded from Neb. Has your check been cashed? If so if you get copy of check most of them have your case number on it and you can check online on your status.

Bottom line here is (I am very sorry to say) that the processing times at CSC are long and confusing. Be prepared for long wait.

Us too. It took I think 8 calendar days for them to issue NOA1, which we received from CSC.

We didn't need the IMBRA RFE but we've been touched, although I don't think that necessarily means anything..

Did it actually state that you had been transferred to CSC? I can't find anything about that, and I really really want to know where my case is! :-)

To my knowledge no one that had not received a NOA1 from NEB was informed of the transfer, the petition is just forwarded to CSC and then in 2 to 3 weeks you get your NOA1 from them.
