Hi all, my I-129F was received by the Texas Service Center on January 22 and my NOA1 was dated January 24. I started this thread for January 2014 filers whose applications are being processed at TSC so we can stay up to date on progress in processing the applications. Good luck to everyone!

thanks for starting a TSC January 2014 thread! my NOA1 date is 1/2/14.

Itd be great to keep this thread active as im sure there are alot of us anxiously waiting to hear something, if you're a TSC january filer who has been approved already let us know and remember to keep your timelines updated so we can get a general idea of the waiting times. CSC seems to be pushing them through at a pretty fast pace but there is nothing us lot can do except wait for june to come around unfortunately, blah ClockWatch2.gif

I had a thought on this subject. Maybe TSC is a smaller place, and has many fewer employees than the CSC. Thus the difference in throughput.

Interesting thought and very possible, i know that alot of petitions from the Philippines are being expedited right now which i assumed was the reason for the slow processing for everyone else but they all seem to be going through CSC so your guess is probably correct about TSC.

Me and my Fiance personally can cope with the 5 month wait as weve adapted pretty well to being apart, its the looming worry of is it going to take 6/7/8 months that has us anxious the most!

Yeah I'm afraid I'll be one of the unlucky ones with an unusually long wait, no particular reason why (no previous marriages, no crimes, clean records etc), I just happen to have that kind of luck laughing.gif Then again, not counting short visits we've been apart for almost 9 years, what's another 5+ months? rofl.gif

Congrats! We got our NOA1 from the TCS 01/28/2014 ... Expecting our NOA2 anytime now :)

Philippians 4: 6-7. "Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus."

We Are Jan 7th Noa1 still awaiting approval for the NOA2 also...does get depressing when you see other applications being approved in very short time frames as it appears its a random approach to processing at the Service Centres.

Does anyone know the reason for the slow down at TSC?

Fingers crossed that they start processing faster and in a more logical fairer way, such as received dates.
