With CSC slowing down a bit, yet with them now being on to Oct....what would you all wager will be the month that they start working on us January filers? I hope its really not Aug-Sep like my timeline is estimating. Any Guesses?

My congressional aide called CSC to check on our case. She told me to expect January filers to process July - August time frame. She said if I didn't hear anything by end of August she would call again.

It prob doesnt matter how i feel because either way i just gotta keep waiting.

I am super Depressed I can't travel to see him because i am used to traveling knowing when i will see him next was always comforting in the past few years. This NOT knowing sucks butt! If we were millionaires it would be an issue id fly every week but were not. We have a baby being a single mommy has to be the toughest thing ive ever had to do. I am just so sick and tired of waiting of handing my next step to the american govt! I so regret doing K1 we shouldve just gotten married we were anticipating a wait of a year and we couldve planned me traveling accordingly but now... im stuck.....this is soooo hard for me in every aspect of life......

Sunday night venting.....

Hello January filers! We got our NAO1 on the 3rd of Jan and sent of the day before Christmas :) I'm getting impatient and needed something else to read besides timelines! LOL! We were at CSC but got a notice that our address changed on Jan 30th so I'm not sure if we were transferred. I will be calling Wed when I have the day off to see if that was it. I hope this is over soon!

Good luck, friends! I'm seeing hope just around the corner.

Also, why are some later than us from the same country getting NAO2s and some earlier not? Is the process completely random? I hope not! >.<

This does not sound good. But, God is greater right?

Based on timeline data, your I129f may be adjudicated between August 3, 2013 and August 24, 2013*.

Yes, He is greater. good.gif

Good evening guys,

I have spent nearly 2 hours reading this entire forum. I too am a January 2013 filer. I petitioned my fiancé late December 2012. Actual date received was 12/28/12 and NOA1 date 1/2/13. He lives in the Dominican Republic. Luckily I live in Miami which makes it easier for me to travel every 2 or 3 months to spend time with my heart.gif. I just got back from a weekend trip last week and this time around the goodbye was even more heartbreaking. But knowing that this was the last time before I go back for the interview makes me very happy :)

This truly is a stressful and frustrating wait, and as we head into our 5th month wait time it becomes even more nerve-wrecking. I've decided to compile all the documents and paperwork required for the interview so we don't have to do that at last minute.

I hope and pray that we all get our soooooooo awaited NOA2 within the next few weeks. Every day that goes by is a day closer for us being with our other 1/2. Best of luck to all.
