I-130 MARCH 2013 FILERS!! NBC

[r060106 109]

True

[En-oh-eh-to now 147]

I wouldn't count on that number being reliable, it's again just an estimate. I saw an I-130 that was approved today (not listed on the forum) and its giving me hopes.

The sad state of I-130 processing: we get one approval in a day, and this gives us hope. An approval for a petition filed NINE months ago. An approval not for a visa, mind you, but for permission to apply for a visa. #######.

Two approvals. In one day today after a little draught. *sigh*

Usman,

On VJ alone there are 110 outstanding not yet processed March petitions (looking at those who got NOA1 in March). And this is just a fraction of the total. There's no way to know when they will be processed. I've been waiting for 7 months too.

Hi holiday,

i don't know why they are taking too much time to approve the 1-130 spuse visa petition.Although it's a very simple case.Any how hope for the best and will get approve case very soon.. can you tell me the current approval time by the USCIS ?

Usman,

Someone else told me I need to send in all the evidence again, and I really wasn't in the mood to do that. So I just need to send in the I-129F with the two passport photos and a photocopy of the NOA1 document? Correct?

All the info is in the I-129F instructions. It is less than the I-130 because you need to send a copy of your NOA1 with the application, so they know what you have already sent. Some is repeat, but it is less.

I would think a lawyer would of had you file this as soon as you got NOA1 on your I-130 to cover all bases.

Agree. I just don't get why it's taking them so darn long to approve I-130s while I-129Fs for K-1s get approved so fast. Makes no sense to me at all.

Thank you. I don't have a lawyer. Can't afford one at the moment.

Did you file a K-3 after your I-130?

Im filing one today. My lawyer suggested filing it now since he has information that they are re-starting the K3 processing..... He said a 5 month processing time... so I'm in... Going down today to sign the petition so he can mail it all out . It might be a shot in the dark.. but I don't care. He must tthink there is something to it if he called to say he wants to file it. He told me it wasn't really worth it back in April because they weren't processing them then...I want all the "i's" dotted and the "T's" crossed.

[usman104 23]

only filed i-130..

So I just had infopass around 30 min ago.

Officer told me that my file was last touched on aug 23. All the process has been done, such as background check. He said you are just waiting on approval (what are they waiting for?). Then he said your case is from india that's why it's taking longer. He told me applications from India, China, Mexico and Philippines are taking around 8-12 months due to high numbers of petition.

I don't know how much of this is true, he did look over his computer for while and then told me all this, so this was my experience, I don't know if I should believe on this info or not.

That's odd to me. I thought they didn't separate them by countries. I understand those countries are high fraud countries, but if everything is complete, then why can't they just be adjudicated in order? Not that there is an order these days......
