K1 Petitioners for CSC/Update Your Timelines Please

[RickJovi 81]

It seems as no one is updating their timelines. If you get your NOA2 for the CSC, please have the courtesy to update your timelines so we can see the dates the the NOA2 are being received or approximate dates USCIS is allegedly processing them. I am so close to 5 months, it is killing me. Some people I know that received their NOA2 1 day earlier than mine already got their NOA2 approval last week. for the last 2 days the K1 timeline for the CSC has not changed. I find it hard to believe that no one has received and NOA2 from CSC. Where I screwed up is I forgot to attach the G-1145 to the petition packet. I am now at the mercy of the USCIS website that may not update on a frequent basis. I created an acount and asked for e-mail notification and text notification, but I don't know if it will be as quick as if I submitted the G-1145. Thank you.

hi RickJovi, I hear you...seems like the K1 processing is on a standstill. I saw January 2012 filers being approved and made me wonder how the USCIS agent "picked" what folder to work on with first...do they just randomly pick K1 packets?? or based on priority dates??

They do it by chronological order, but as there is not only one adjudicator (and hopefully!!), some cases with a more recent NOA1 date can be adjudicated sooner that some with an older date.

It makes no sense to do Chronologically by name or why even have NOA1 dates? They are supposed to adhere to their processing average dates or they are useless guideline. The ones that get through to me are flukes and the petitioners are lucky. I expect my petition to be approved soon. If Not I will call USCIS and then go to my Senator if still no approval in a reasonable time.

The petitions are received and processed in chronological order but it doesn't mean that the approvals come out in the same order. Some petitions take longer to process than others.

Also, most of the people who have not updated their VJ timeline are the inactive users who haven't logged on VJ for a long time. I doubt they will see your post...

Well, we are all waiting rather impatiently, but unfortunately we cannot force people to update their timelines. A lot of people aren't active users so maybe they make an account to ask one or two questions and then never log in again... or simply they stop logging on here to avoid the whole process making them go crazy over the NOA2 dates... who knows.

Yes, CSC is moving quite slowly but we just need to be patient because they will get to your case soon. As you said it's close to 5 months, so don't worry. You will get the approval when you least expect it! All emails that I have received from USCIS were when I was least expecting it, just checking my email randomly and seeing something from them.

As someone else said, they process them in the order that they receive the cases but sometimes different adjudicators work faster than others so if our petition is stuck in a box with a slow adjudicator, then we just need to bide our time until he or she gets to it.

I know it's frustrating to see others who had their NOA1 date after yours get approved, but just keep plugging along and yours will be approved soon.

Uh? Re-read my post, I didn't write "chronologically by name". They are processed by chronological order (by NOA1 date).
