K-1 Historical Trend

[John+Lourdelie 28]

I hope that what is indicated for VJ K-1 petitioners is not what is actually happening at CSC. In the past three days the time from NOA1 to NOA2 has gone from 99 days (just like VCS) to 132 days. Maybe that is why they are moving so many IR-1/CR-1 and K-3 to TSC. Just hope that they get it under control and get the process time back down to where VSC is at.

Just a little concerned,

John

I am afraid that timeline estimate might be right. Hopefully, with the recent transfer of cases they can focus on the remaining petitions and get us approved sooner! I know we, CSC filers, wish our petitions had been sent to VSC. Oh well, we just need to be patient and wait.

Best wishes!

Although VJ updated its estimate significantly sometime during the past three days, it is a development that has been happening over at least a couple months. It has been clear from August or so until mid-October that VJ statistics revealed that CSC was not really processing many I-129F applications at all. Now there is movement, but I keep hoping for even more. I watch these statistics several times a day hoping to get some insight into what is going on, hoping for a big jump in numbers.

The transfer of a healthy number of marriage applications to Texas is interesting, and I hope that it means that more CSC staff will be processing I-129Fs.

When I filed, I saw that the VJ stats seemed to indicate that the NOA2 took a little more than three months (even though CSC's official goal is five months). I have to admit, I really hoped for that three months (or maybe less). Now CSC's time seems to be up to almost that five-month mark. May it quickly move back down to three months (or less). I know some others have expressed that we should just be patient, at least during the first five months, but the waiting and the unknown of it all is draining.

Wishing all of us strength, patience, and--best yet--a speedy process.

Look at igors list, a lot of i-129fs are being processed through CSC, there clearly was a problem, but I like to think they have done something about it now, which is why we're seeing stuff moved away from CSC and the number of approved petitions ticking over again

Historically, the processing times vary. They go from extremely fast to extremely slow in cycles which are not regular but are predictable. In nearly three years of being a VJ member, I have seen it come and go at the various SCs several times.

You really have not recourse but to wait, do you?

[Kristy S 13]

sorry to break it to you, but there have been quite a few in the ballpark of 150 days from CSC this month. mine is currently at 124 days and not expecting my noa2 until december 2nd or so.

you cant really relay on historical trends,stick to igor's list

This time of year has been historically slow. You have other visa types open and competing for the attention of agents and a lot of people are taking their vacation before they lose time at year end.
