July 2013 Filers

[Sarah---Nichelle 1]

That's so strange - Mine is going the other way - getting earlier.

It was originally Dec. 10 - 16... then yesterday it was Nov. 16 - Dec. 3... and now today it is Nov. 13 - 29.

We sent our paperwork in mid - late July.

I'm curious how accurate the VJ timelines are / where they get the information from / if things are getting processed suddenly much faster than before?

July filer...even though I filed close to the end of July 7/30/13.

NOA1 received and now waiting on NOA2...

Our petition was sent directly to Texas...

Looking forward to going this crazy journey with you July filers...

Patience is the key. I have been here before so I know not to get all worked up over the dates.....This time I am going to enjoy the journey while I wait.

That is what I saw as well but I am not sure if that case was just transferred from Vermont to Texas...and the petitioner misunderstood her letter. Either way I am here for the long-haul.. .I will update this thread either way. Best of luck to you on this journey.

I see on your timeline you've been on this journey for quite some time I'm sorry. I can't even imagine! Why did you get denied the first time?

Hi folks! My nephew and fiance are July filers, i'm helping them with being a co-signer, she asks me a lot of questions being I've gone through this 4 years ago being I immigrated my hubby here from England...Visa Journey's saved us big time with our questions/concerns and issues...so read up and lurk peoples timelines! It was a huge help. If anyone has any questions, you guys can ask me as well....Good luck guys! Plus we've made tons of friends on here!

hi, im a july 1st filer been a bumpy road so far everything is going smoothly except the constant omg something happened good! to oh it's not really anything XD i just got this

On August 12, 2013, we transferred your I129F, PETITION FOR FIANCE(E), to your local USCIS Office for further processing. The new office has jurisdiction over your case and will send you a decision as soon as processing is complete or you will be notified if further information or action is needed. If you move, please use our Change of Address online tool to update your case with your new address.

i was all excited when my friend said oh they are looking at it! to oh no they are just sending it some where else meaning some one else's desk pile lol

i really don't mind waiting as long as we end up together in the end. feel free to add me as friend id love to share stories and make new friends ^^ i wish you all the best on your journey!

Filed on July 22, 2013 and acknowledged receipt by TSC July 24. Received NOA1 hardcopy five days later. I am just wondering why our application is being processed by TSC when it should have been VSC. I don't see anything on the receipt that it is going to be processed or transfer to VSC.

Your estimated approval time will change from time to time and it can go either way. It is all based off VJ users updating their own timelines accurately and then the site calculates an average then based from your filing and NOA1 dates, it projects an NOA2 date.

There are petitions being approved in my group (June) for example where the applicants are (from what I can tell) not members of VJ, therefore their info would not be applied to the averages.

There is also Igor's list that will show you VJ members (who update their timeline) that have been approved.

Your app is being processed by TSC instead od VSC because VSC is backed up...

Hello. Just checked the uscis site and it says our application is approved, so I guess we got NOA2, only 42 days after NOA1. We're very excited, but I keep checking it to make sure it wasn't a mistake. I'm a little concerned that this isn't real, and the site just says it by accident somehow. Anyone else out there getting approvals? I'm thinking we'll be seeing some approvals for the people that were transferred from vsc to tsc if this is for real.

Jealous if it is correct! That's awesome.

I just checked uscis and our last update was the Alien Reg # being updated on July 11, a day after our NOA1.

Congrats!

That's awesome news--congratulations! Were you one of the tranfers from Vermont to Texas on 08/06/13? We're in that group of transfers, but our status still says Initial Review.

[photog82 1]

Thanks guys. Yes, we were one of the transfers on 8/6/13. I checked a few numbers around us, and the were some that received RFEs and another approval. So, I'm really starting to believe it's real.
