If I pushed the service rep a bit, I'd be reminded they are working on the October I-129fs, so I have a few months to wait.

...sigh George

That really ticks me off George. There is no good reason why you are still waiting! How could it hurt to give somebody some information on their case? This whole system needs to be fixed. :angry: We are not criminals. We are people that have fallen in love and want to marry our loved ones.

Hang in there, we know you are close.

Ken

Thank you. The bright side is UCSIS's status page for I-129Fs at CSC shows they are currently processing November 13 applications! LOL!

Yours should be VERY close! Have you called and did the "RFE trick"?

Reading back through the past ten pages or so, I'm guessing that the "RFE trick" is to call and act like you got an RFE and try to figure out what the status is? I haven't contacted anyone at all yet; going by the dates on the website like I was, I thought it was going to be another three months before my application was processed. Then I come back here and find people with Feb. and Mar. NOA1s getting NOA2s, and us poor January people left behind :(

So no, I haven't done an RFE trick, but if you could elaborate on what it is / how to do it, I would be quite indebted to you :D

When you call customer service, follow the prompts for request for more evidence. You dont want to get customer service at their call center because they can't tell you anything. I just said I had been touched 2 times and not heard anything for 2 weeks and was concerned about an RFE. The guy told me I'd been approved.

Here are the prompts I follow from start to finish on the automated system. I wrote them down this morning. This is how I get an officer at CSC: 1,2,2,4,2,1(of which you type in your receipt #, 1,1. I'm sure I wrote it down right, that should get you to an officer. Of course once you get there, there is no guarantees you won't get the same customer service answer!!! I called today, and they don't even have me in the system for receiving my rfe, which was delivered a week ago.
