Aug 2013 I-130 filers

[Kaylara 814]

I wouldn't get the police certificate until you have your NOA2. I think that they expire 6 months after issue. I know that in NL, he can't even ask for the VOG himself. The Consulate has to do that.

How do you track the NBC case numbers?

just type Uscis case status in Google search.

than just type any random 10 digit MSC numbers in box. same like yours.

you will find many I-130 cases with different date.

I have like 10,000 MSC numbers on my book from June to August 12th.

I am checking updates everyday.

My problem with this, is that there are no repercussions for them when they don't meet their goals. They just don't meet them, and go merrily on their way, not meeting them. There needs to be some kind of accountability on their part. With no repercussions for them, there is also no incentive for them to do their job in a timely manner.

I completely agree with you on this Kaylara. Most jobs expect a quota to be met. When you don't meet it you may lose your job. They should be held accountable. And worst yet, is the stress being put on the people who applied.......emotionally and financially. We are just numbers on the files they look at. No faces means out of sight, out of mind. Looking at your timeline I can't even imagine why they have not processed your case quickly. You have been married for years.

Hey Deep35472, thanks for your reply. So based on your (in depth!) analysis, where are they really? The USCIS site says 13th Feb 2013 (as of 31st October 2013) but i have seen reports that they are well into April touching May now?

Hello,

We are applying for IR5 (parents of USC). NOA1 date is August 3rd, 2013.

I would like to gain some time getting the police certificates before I-130 is approved.

Could anybody advise what will be the next steps after NOA2?

What documents are required by the consulate?

Thank you,

We've been seeing approvals from Jan-June, with several after that as well. (Some with Philippine beneficiaries, some not.) So basically, they're all over the place.

Just crazy, it all adds to the nightmare that is USCIS..... at least if it was methodical it would take the edge off.... However at least they are moving again!

My husband is sitting on the edge of his seat waiting to go get the police certificate. They are only good for 30 days from Costa Rica. But I'm wondering if there are different types now that I think about it. The one he is talking about is the one everybody has to get when they start a new job... It only takes 30 minutes or less to get( give or take depending on the line)

I hope the USCIS is open for business as usual today. I know that is asking alot since its Thursday.... Philadelphia is expecting a snow storm tonight into tomorrow morning but as far as I know, TEXAS isn't.... LET'S GO TSC

Have most of the April/May filers at least been transferred? Did you actually get a notice or just call and speak to a Tier 2? I read somewhere that they are now transfering July cases....?

I don't follow the other months. I only follow March and April. I was in Costa Rica when I received an email from my Senators office stating I was transferred to Texas. I also received the 3 text messages regarding an update to my case.

I just found out on Monday through another inquiry that my case has been assigned to an officer. Who knows when that happened and who knows how long an officer gets to hang on to them.

Tier 2 are useless. They only have access to a few more screens than tier 1. I don't waste my time with them. They only make me feel worse. They are RUDE and OBNOXIOUS

If you filed in Aug. I would start calling your Senators office in February.

Hey thanks. But hat do you say to a senators office? I guess you don't speak to the actual senator!. Can you only call when your i130 is out of their guideline times?

Well, someone would actually have to *look* at my case to see that. I don't think that's actually happened yet.

Kayla is right. they are all over place to approving the cases.

I saw some cases which filled August and Sep already approved.

About Tranfer cases, they are on first week of July.

They will start August cases withing next 10 days.
