Maybe August/Sept for your NOA2. It's hard to say at the moment the way CSC is processing.

Prepare yourself for 6-12 months of waiting since your received your NOA1. I know it's really bad news, but unless they start processing I-129f's on a daily basis again at CSC, that is the waiting time you are looking at. They have been stuck at the date of 18th July for the last 4 months. And look at it this way..if you are prepared for 12 months of waiting, then you won't be disappointed if your NOA2 comes earlier than that.

hey thanks for your reply i knew it would be a long wait and thats fine i could wait till the end of time just to be with her of course its hard but were all in the same boat i guess lets just hope for every ones sake the CSC gets there bottoms into gear and get working on them

i do feel it will be longer than that but prepared to wait just have to hang on we know its what we both want so good things come to those who wait

There are a lot of people in the same boat as you. So, the good news is that you are not alone. In a few days, we'll reach 200 days of waiting. And we were not prepared for this when we first filed. The only advice I can give you for now is, try to keep yourself busy with work or daily activities, this way the time will move a little faster.

I keep hoping one of these days, they will start processing K1's again..what can I say, I have a very optimistic personality :P

Hi and welcome to the forum! We filed in January with CSC too, also from the greater L.A. area.

Let´s follow each other´s timelines, can you please fill in yours!? It´s quick and easy to do and gives other people an idea as to where you stand in the process. Also that info can be used for stats and estimates. When you go to your profile, there should be given an option somewhere on top "add/edit timeline", just click on it and follow the instructions.

When we filed, we anticipated a 5-6 months waiting period for the WHOLE process (consulate part included) based on how quick CSC was approving in the first half of 2012 (2-3 months). We were shocked to learn that CSC processing times have increased drastically and there seems to be no end in sight. At this point, I hope to be in California with my love by Christmas. Good luck on your journey!

Hey Chris,

If you have been made redundant from your job, could you not go over and maybe stay with your fiance for a bit (maybe a month or two) while you are waiting out your application? Might help to make the wait go by a bit faster.
