September 2013 I-130 Filers

[Murf & Reggie 37]

Yay! Lots of action last night! I'll update the sheet as soon as I get to a pc in about an hour. The reason I've locked the spreadsheet is the other months have been having issues with people changing information, switching dates, moving columns, etc. I have no patience for that (and I'm a control freak) lol

And rpaterson, since your wife is already on the spreadsheet, I'll just change her PD and leave her name on the sheet (since it's the same petition).

Hi bdrew612 could you pls update my transfer date to 11/24 thanks a lot

You might consider a web entry form to help you keep track of everyone's requests, if September folks are agreeable to using one. Jan-Aug all had forms like these: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1PdD-cOUFDQ4Si9cqY9vQZ5kmcgoQz7YizjqiGFWReqE/viewform. They're very easy to create on Google docs.

Thank you! I think that's a great idea!

I may be wrong, but considering that the last big transfer of 2/18-2/20 went through transferring 6 business days worth of PDs ... if the trend continues, then there's a possibility that they may go through 9/12 tomorrow, which makes me jealous bc I'm 9/13.

AHHH. So ready to move onto NVC already!!

From what I have seen with August transfers, I think they will hit the second week of September filers tonight.

haha, I like your enthusiasm! I pretty much distract myself until 7pm CST or so and then start checking to see who got transferred.

Good luck tonight, everyone! For those already transferred, may your NOA2 be swift, as well as the NVC case number!

I dont know about the rest of you but I'm just about ready to have a heart attack. It feels like 40 years since I sent my I-130 off, and these last few days are just dragging by.

I hear you there buddy. We all share the same feeling. Sucks to keep telling your spouse there has been no movement on the case. But that is the reality of the process. On a brighter side, we are half-way through!

Ok so last night they basically transferred september 3, 4, and 5. Considering that 1st was sunday and 2nd was labor day. If they follow the same trend we can expect september 9, 10, and 11 to be transferred. . But i hope they do more than 3 days worth of apps!!!

[anaheimcalifornia 12]

Sorry i forgot about the 6th!! Lol.. so 6, 9, 10!!

Yeah, youre right. I really have no right to moan or complain. Ive been a dual US/UK citizen since birth, so at least we've been able to live together in the UK during this whole process. I really feel for those who have had no choice but to be separated. It must be awful. Fingers crossed we all get some good news soon. My PD is September 20 so I guess I wont hear anything for a couple of weeks... And then another period of waiting and hoping begins.

Yep! And maaaaybe add on 11 & 12 today, and if not, then tomorrow. If we're lucky, they may close out the whole week and finish with 13 like VNBCI130 said.

Maybe next week, possibly as early as Monday!

In that case you are in better situation that 90%+ people on this forum. Most of us are separated.

I hope so. Ive been checking email so often, my ipad is suffering from a nervous breakdown I really wish I'd gone down the consular processing route. It seems much faster, but stupidly I sent my I-130 to the USCIS. I should have just applied the embassy, and then applied for a K3. But as I said, at least we are together, and not being subjected to a forced separation like many people.

Absolutely, I totally agree. I dont think I could have handled that. Youre all a lot stronger than me. I would have crumbled under the strain
