APRIL 2010 (I-130) FILERS

[Hare 0]

Yup now 137 days completed today. Sent an email out to NCSC about it and they said u have u r within the processing time. So I cant do anything but wait till sep 2 when i hit the dreadful 150 day mark. And the worst part is, i leave to see my wife on sep 3 for a week, so if dont get before that, i will have to wait another 10 days before I can contact NCSC or USCIS. This does really suck but what can we do.

dude Im in the same boat as you are and other people, what we can do ? just wait my first noa1 is 04-09-10 I went over sea 3 times to see my wife sence our marriage 03-13-10

At least your hubby can visit. My hubby isn't even allowed in the country. He's never been to the US. We have NOA 1 April 9th, and based on this thread, I've booked a trip for our anniversary (oct 24th) thinking that our interview won't happen until December or January (instead of Oct as we hoped).

It sucks. We just bought a house and it would save us sooooo much money to be in the same place. But, I guess this is life....I guess....is this life?

I just hope we don't get screwed with an interview date the week after our anniversary trip. I'm not sure how we'd afford that. We'd have to push our interview date back a month if that happens.

yes it is true, I have no idea why that happens, it was the same with some march filers too, but even aprils with noa1 with date 2nd havent been approved, that's why I think I wont get approved till the end of september, which is insane, but we cannot do anything, it also has to do with luck, let's hope we are lucky ones and get approved sooner

if not we will have to wait ...

I am sorry to hear that!

I got married here in Colombia the 7th November, and I was complaining to my hubby cus he didnt start the process till May I think we both couples started this too late so we are in the USCIS bad times of approvals, kind of too late though,

I know my interview wont be schedule for this year cus NVC is slow too, it has to happen a miracle if I am with my hubby on Christmas,

why isnt your hubby allowed In the country?? my hubby is the petitioner he is form usa, and he can come often, also cus tickets are not that expensive. you know in comparison with europe tickets, those into the same continent are not that bad ...

we havent booked ticket for the interview yet, with this slow down we dont even know if I will be there in February or March, our consulate in Colombia lasts 2 or 3 months to give interview, so you can imagine

hope you get the noa2 soon cus this sucks

there is another thing I noticed when I enter my case # and hit ok displays only four blue buttons, (Acceptance,Initial Review,Decision,Post Decision Activity) no other buttons specialy

no Request for Evidence button, have you guys see this or is just me ??

I noticed that about a month ago. It used to have 6 blue bubbles but now only has 4. Maybe that means that there is some initial review when the apps are sent (on first touch) and any Request for evidence would have been sent then. So, now it's just yes or no....

That's my guess. Which means, if you're a stand up citizen, not trying to trick the system, you should be fine.

Again, that's just my guess. But, prior to a month ago, it had 6 blue bubbles, and since has only 4....which gives me hope that the process is coming to an end.

He's not allowed in the country without a visa. And all visas to enter the US from the Dominican Republic take about this long, so, we just went for the one we really wanted.

We got married in the Dominican Republic in October but didn't file our paperwork until end of March. His brother just entered the US on a fiance visa about 2 months ago (their entire process took about 7.5 months). So, based on that, I don't think there will be any issues with our application, but it is just taking a lot longer than I can stand.

I'm still trying to figure out if I can file my taxes as married even if he's not here by Dec 31st since we've been married since 2009. I had to file 2009 as single. Sucks...

DR takes about 2 - 3 months to schedule the interview too (and it seems as though everyone in DR takes the month of December off). So, if we don't get our approval by next week, I think we're looking more at a Jan or Feb interview date. That stinks too. In the 3 years we've been together, we've never spent Christmas together.

I'm just venting today. Sorry everyone. Just really annoyed about the whole thing. I wish everyone the best of luck and the shortest wait imaginable!
