Submit your DD-214

Submit your DD-214

My fiance has been retired from the Army since Oct 2010. Is there any chance that can help our process? We are July filers and asked our senator/congressman's assistance plus we also submit service request. So far, we still don't hear any good news from USCIS.

Congratulations and thanks for the feedback.

Your post says it took USCIS 3 days to approve your application once they pulled it for processing. I am curious how you know when "they pulled it for processing"?

Thanks.

Congrats. However, this post is totally useless without you having a timeline or without at least saying in your post what your NOA1 date was.

haha, thank u for filling your timeline .i saw your review on timeline comment before come to here! so i did a post at your space, saying that to think CSC is with Sep or Oct is too optimistic this is what i told to my Fiance yesterday, after the workload transfer, they really just start to speed up, not like VSC, 1 month ago, so CSC are actually still with July Aug.cases, obviously, oct. Nov. Dec. Jan or even Sep.cases which had already completed the average 5 months, are priority cases due to military or other reasons, so unfortunetly, you just confirm what i was thinking, EVEN sep. done cases are with some priority, not normal cases.

i'm also concerning, the DACA started this march, so what was the reason to slow K1,2,3 cases down from last november till february? at least to January.

Anyway, thank u for your kindly and very useful words here and of course, congratulations!

Found out NOA 2 Sent March 12. A few words based on my experience at this point and observations.

1. Processing times on USCIS or VisaJourney websites are overly optimistic. The effective implementation of the DREAM act last August is dragging things out by months. Look at the percentage of filings processed for July, August and September. They do not coincide with any estimate of processing times. When USCIS pulled my case for processing it took them 3 days to approve it.

2. If you are active duty military or even retired military (not just a veteran) be sure to let USCIS know that. With proof like a copy of your ID card. It does make a difference.

3. If you met someone on a website, don't worry about it too much. And yes, you should admit it on the petition. If the relationship looks legit, they will approve the petition.

DACA started in late August last year. Not just this March. So there was your reason. But CSC is transferring lots of them to TSC now, so hopefully they will catch up a bit. OP is a September NOA1, wow! Congrats. Hopefully in the next couple of weeks the logjam will begin breaking up.

I'm not aware that retired Military could receive special services from the USCIS. However, if you need evidence that he was in the Military you can submit their DD-214. Tell him thanks so much for having served our Nation. Maybe some other senior members will jump in on this post.
