USCIS Service Centers Slowing Down?

It could be because of the recession, and the govt imposing a moratorium on overtime and so forth. So things will slow down. Probably applies to all govt agencies.

I would make an INFOpass. I wouldn't be surprised if they are sending petitions out of Detroit due to all the issues. A governmental office would be the first to go. So check it out and see whats up.

Our ROC was filed 8 months ago and our recent inquiry was wait another 45 days. FYI that puts us 30 days away from the wife filing for USC. Just how complicated is a ROC to review? I think it is a time for a rule and policy change, I.E. your renewal should be in the third year, and you pick a track either USC or ROC and remain a GC holder. If you have no changes address, marriage, arrest etc. it should be take the money and a picture and issue a new card. If you move to USC the standard investigation. When dream act people can have 2 DIU's, up to 9 counts of forgery with immigration documents, and other criminal violations, why jack with the honest people.

Its been like 6 months and haven't heard anything back from NBC. I am USC and applied for my wife. my case doesn't even show online and i have to call NBC all the time to find the status and they says same thing " your case is in processing and will take 30 days, 45 days, 1 more month, it will be soon......." All the officer gave me different different information, and make excusses. I already email to my congressman, senator, DHS, etc but not such help from them too.

K-1 Visa Delays and K-1 Visa Denials – USCIS Statistics Show Many Suffer Needlessly

K-1 Visa Delays and K-1 Visa Denials – USCIS Statistics Show Many Suffer Needlessly

The USCIS recently released statistics on its receipts and approvals of the K-1 Visa for Fiances of U.S. Citizens. The statistics, found here, clearly show that many K-1 Visa applicants are being denied or delayed in receiving approval.

The immigration statistics show that in the first quarter of 2011, it received 10,592 petitions, but that it approved only 5,270. Further, in the second quarter of 2011, the immigration agency received 12,556 petitions and only approved 9,883 petitions. The large different in numbers show that many couples who are applying for the K-1 visa are not providing all of the required K-1 Visa documentation and evidence that is required. Worst yet, the statistics suggest that many applicants are not eligible for the visa – but didn’t understand the process well enough to realize their ineligibility.

If you are a couple who is planning to seek the K-1 fiance visa, please contact the firm. the firm can help you determine whether you are eligible for the petition, and can help ensure that all the required documentation and evidence is provided the first time to USCIS. Why needlessly spend more time a part?

Additionally, if you have a K-1 visa denial, please contact the firm. It is often possible to overcome a K-1 visa denial, and to remove or correct situations where an individual has been deemed K-1 visa ineligible.

That's interesting information but a lot of it is based on Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals processing a lot of people do send in the right documentation but are still required to produce more evidence later on. On the USCIS website an announcement was made that all petitions filed to Vermont after June would be sent to Texas I see on your time line you applied in May that's only 4 months you may get an NOA2 in the next month or so, there are people on here who have waited 6 months or more. I myself have been waiting since Feb 2013 which is when they received our RFE only to be told it would take up to 90 days then to be told a decision was being made August 18th my fiancé called a few weeks ago to see what the news was they told him its still in the process of a decision.
