Aug 2013 I-130 filers

[aditya3245 113]

lol @ arctic-front-maggedon. But I don't think it's going to take until Feb for August petitions to start getting transfers. The whole of June was transferred in roughly two weeks, including Christmas and New Year's holidays, with the last week of June filers being transferred over a span of about 3-4 days.

Keep your fingers crossed you guys land in CSC... despite the I-129 workload transfer, California is still miles ahead of Texas and Nebraska.

From your mouth to Gaga's ears (my wife came up with that)

I wouldn't get too concerned just yet. Looking at July's transfer sheet, it seems like their petitions started being transferred at the end of December. I've watched each group of filers as they transferred and 2 weeks to clear out the whole month has been pretty standard. Keep an eye on July and by the middle of this month I'd bet they'll be mostly transferred and moving on to August files.

The supplementary sheet says 60 days rather than specifying business or working days, so count them as calendar days.

I'm hoping your right, I was thinking mid Jan for August, and early feb for completion..... However that's IF we get transferred!

Mid-jan for august is a bit too optimistic.

Nobody between the 25th of july and the 30th of july has been touched yet.

Lets hope for the best

I'm basing my estimates off the other months' transfer sheets, which look like:

March 25-30: transferred November 7-14
April 25-30: transferred December 2-4
May 25-30: transferred December 17
June 25-30: transferred December 26-30

Maybe it won't happen that way for you guys, but there's good precedent set that 5 days' worth of PDs will take a week or less to transfer.

I just spoke to tier two I REALLY AM ANNOYED. So i have a pending k-3 as well and the lady was like your k-3 will be approved in 60 days?? Which would be fine if i actual believed it? Anyway with that said she was unhelpful why do they have these people answering phone calls do they get payed to give us uninformative answers that mean nothing!

I have a pending k3 too and I really think they just get the I129f form and wait for the I130 aproval. they onley process few I129f forms. I have one peruvian friend who got the K3 just like one month ago and when she had the interview the consuler in the embassy didnt know nothing about the k3, she told to her that it is a lot time ago they didnt have an interview for a K3 visa.

My husband has had 2 friends and one cousin IN DR..as high fraud as they are...get approved in under 6 months. Finished! I should've waited til October. Seems everything before June and after Sept started flying!

It's so much easier to be optimistic for other people, I refused to believe anything good of my case either. But I'm rooting for you guys. Rah rah rah!

It will just happens when it happens, would be nice to see at least a few early August transfers in the next few weeks.

I'm just hoping the NVC to London to Visa issuance takes no longer than 4 months...... Apart from the police

Certificate I have everything ready....

* happen..... I hate typing on my iPhone!

Eastyo, do you have the list of papers or documents we will have to send to NVC? please share it with us... I really want to have everything ready too, thanks

I got all my doctors/vaccination history, is amazing how long/hard this takes to get. For me it was 4 weeks just to get this. Of course, they will do this for you at the exam for a huge fee....

I got a letter of financial support ready plus my lawyer has some forms (I'm not 100% sure their names) ready also

Plus my "proof of having a real marriage" docs....

... You can't get the police check yet, but that doesn't take to long.

I will find out from my solicitor what the things she prepared are.

However we live in the UK at the mo so I'm not sure if it differs country to country.

Out if interest, why did you go K3 route? my lawyer told me it didn't even exist now ? I'm not even sure what it is!

Did you file and i130 concurrently? I wonder if I could file a K3 in London?

[dirk_diggler 107]

i'm ready for the NVC as well... wife just needs to mail (securely ) me the documents
