December 2009 Filers - CSC!

[TerriandEric 4]

Congrats Terri and Eric. Now hopefully for you the Sydney consulate is way faster at allocating interviews than London is! I guess there's just too many people for London to see, lol.

Fingers crossed that you get to the US for April like you wanted x

I'm aiming for June now but that's looking doubtful

Thanks Emma *hugs*

From all I hear Sydney is quite fast at allocation of interview..so here is crossing everything possible for a fast turn around.

I really hope London get you in for interview sooner rather then later

Please continue to cheer for/pray for all us remaining December filers. I'm beginning to wonder if my case is being behind-the-scenes moved or non-documented "touches", aka, forwarded to special investigation departments.

We have a complicated situation. K-1 plus three K-2 kids (Do they reference check them since approval for dad is an instant approval for the children? Their record is squeeky clean), a U.S. Consulate famous for testing even nerves of steel, and a POA (Point of Entry) denial last Sept. in which they revoked his tourist Visa (yes, due to a complication). I'm sure it's holding up our process, but we could use some extra prayers.

and to all you December people moving through NVC and on to Embassies...you go, man!!! Love will blaze your path...

when you say 'touch' what does that mean? does it says that your case was reviewed when checking status online?

Yes we too are trying not to guess why approval seems slow for us when so many Dec and even Jan petitions have gone through already.

Let's keep hoping something will shake out next week!

I am sure your approval is not far away -- I know all too well how hard it is to sit & wait and watch other filers getting their approvals while you sit in hellish limbo....but have faith & trust that your turn is right around the corner

Thanks for the encouragement!

There really is something calming in having faith and trusting...

It means a USCIS worker updated your case on your portfolio on the USCIS website.

Hello,

I hope that there've been some more approvals today! Just stay positive and hopeful if you're still waiting, your time will come soon.

We've just received our letter telling us that our parcel will be sent to the London Embassy this week! Yay Then just a 3 or 4 week wait for London to actually acknowledge that they've received it, lol! Oh well, at least I can go ahead and book a medical now

Oh, I still haven't heard about our December CSC K1, but EXCELLENT NEWS of a different, yet related sort!!! Today, I found out that I won a National Fellowship to do a teaching project ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD. Of course, I wrote it to study the schooling system in Ecuador! I WON! I WON! I WON! I'm heading down two weeks earlier than expected, flight, hotels, food, rental car PAID! First I jumped around the house yelling, then I cried a bit (relief!, it's $5000), then I got down on my knees and said a little thank you. I get to tour several schools, investigate methodologies of reading and writing in their native language, how they teach English as a foreign language, and parental involvement in the schooling system. I'm psyched. Guess who gets to be my own personal chofer and travel consultant? Oh, now if only the NOA2 would come so we could get our interview finalized for during my visit....

Luck o' the Irish to me this week....KEEP IT COMING FOR ALL OF US!!!

Does it specifically say that the case was reviewed by an agent on so and so date?

Mine has not been updated after the NOA1 date.

Yes that date changes if the case worker handles your case.

My understanding is though that it's not always done, meaning processing maybe happening on your case but the date is not always changed.

I got my letter from NVC today stating that they have received my I-129F which will be forward to the Islamabad embassy within a week...How can i find out when the application leaves NVC or arrives in Islamabad?<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->

Here's a thread that has tracking directions.

How long did it take for you to get your NVC letter? I mean from the time you got NOA2 to the time you got the NVC letter?

Congrats! CSC is on a roll...! <img src="http://www.visajourney.com/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/good.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="good.gif" />

The NVC letter was dated exactly a week after the NOA2.

I have also received the packet 3.5 from Islamabad embassy via email.

Hmmm so January filers are just flying right past us. perhaps they forgot about the good old month of December?

That's for sure!

It's like we (mid to late December) are in a box or pile on somewhere.

If I knew how to call in there I would ask them, What's Up?
