What has happened to our petition?

[USAGirl UKBoy 0]

we got our NOA1 on AUgust 10, 2011.

it has been 6.5 months and we have recieved no NOA2, no RFE, no "touches", no answers.

I have contacted my congressman (pointless)

and I submitted a request for a status update on 2-10-12. i was told to wait 15 days for a response. This is the response i got:

"The status of this service request is:

We have requested your file. Please allow a minimum of 60 days for a response.

If you have any further questions, please call the National Customer Service Center at 1-800-375-5283."

I contacted the USCIS for further information and we can all guess what i was told: nothing.

What is going on? anyone in our same situation or has been? Is our petition lost? denied? Trashed?

Am i flagged for all the activism work I've done in the past? I mean, really, I'm starting to question everything at this point.

I was told i could visit my local immigration office, does anyone know if this is even worth it?

Thank you for any answers anyone can give! I really do appreciate it!

Look-up !

Yes, you are past 6 months. And you did the right thing. What you directly or indirectly did was ask for a Service Request. Says so in the letter. Hence: Pull and Review your File/Petition.

There are No currant RFE's to deal with and if so they would have occured months ago, so you are most likely past a RFE.

Your Politicle views (Activist) have nothing to do with it. A Free Country.

Be Patient and let us know when that NOA2 comes. Could be this week. (USCIS is also aware your Congressman Office made a call) When they say 60 days which is a Standard Form Letter generaly, exspect 2 weeks with No Problems.

Good Luck

Indeed it does. Yes, patience as more months get tacked onto the already exceeded length of time. But that isn't the worst part. It's the petitions that are getting approved that were filed in September, October that concerns me.

waiting would be fine if I knew what I was waiting for, ya know. I'm just curious if anyone can share their same experience with me....

Keep you head up! exactly what i told the hubs-to-be. Home stretch just keeps getting longer! But thanks for the comment! It is hopeful. And yeah, about the RFE's; that's what i kinda figured. We are past that. I do feel confident that it is only a matter of days at this point.

Congrats!!!!!!!!!!!!! Very happy for you both! :dance:

Now everything will go amazingly fast. Next will be to get your embassy case number!

For the NVC:

Give them 7 - 10 days before calling.

K1's are not tracked through the AVR, EVER. They are processed like an immigrant visa, but they are NOT immigrant visas, so they fall into a completely different class of their own. Therefore you need an operator. To get there:

1-603-334-0700

Press 1 for English

Press 5 for an operator

OK. I can do that. Thank you. Now is the time I should be gathering up my financial info to send off the the hubs, correct? BTW, What is the AVR?

AVR is the automated system, with other types of visas you can enter in your case number from USCIS (NOA) and get updated, but not for the K-1.

Yup for sure get the 134 and supporting documents gathered.... its ROCK 'N' ROLL time!!
