Same thing is happening to me. I called USCIS to verify there wasn't a problem, and they said that they had my case and it was processing and that it will take roughly five months. They said that if t

Last night I emailed the USCIS ombudsman about my concerns regarding the processing times at CSC and my pending case.

This morning, I received the same response that someone else posted on visajourney yesterday: The processing time at CSC has slipped due to other processing priorities, but they are currently moving resources to the I-129f cases. As they do so, they anticipate the processing time to decrease. (My letter said not to copy and paste it, otherwise I would have posted it here)

Here is the ombudsman email: OLUInquiries@dhs.gov

I suggest everyone write to them. No matter if you just received your NOA1 last week, or if you have been waiting months. It takes 5 minutes to write a couple of sentences about your concern regarding the processing times for K-1 fiance visas at CSC.

It seems they are finally doing something about it, and if we keep the pressure on, maybe they will realize just how bad it has gotten.

I just sent the Ombudsman en email. I have also enlisted the help of one of Ohio's senators, and my congressional rep. Tomorrow, my day off, I will recontact the other senator. I sent him a contact request a few weeks ago and haven't heard back yet. I'm 2 days past the 6 month mark now. I know that I havn't been waiting as long as alot of you, but any further wait is too long a wait. Prassure valve is on!!!

I called VSC today and spoke with a tier two officer and was told that yes they have updated their processing times to 5 months but that is just a number they strive for , it actality its 6 to 7 months???

I was also told that I should have an decision within 60 days if not less....

I cant understand any of this -

Friday is our 6 month date :(

I was hoping and praying his interview would be sometime in July if we were approved this month - now who knows??

You shouldn't worry. You're at VSC, so you should be hearing something soon. Keep updating us. Good luck!!!

Yes, it does seem they're slightly exaggerating by putting the processing time down to 5 months. The truth is that some October filers will hear this month and others won't.. But it's still a pretty good timeline in the grand scheme of things. :thumbs:

I hope dreams come true for all here. I'm going to post here in the hope I can soon join your side. My fiance will have my paperwork soon and filing before the middle of the month. I'm hoping we get to VSC and not CSC. VSC seems to be making few people happy with shorter wait times.

Best wishes to everyone
