Ok I've become entirely too tired and annoyed with all of this criticism of the VJ data. I too am an engineer and I live in the stats world. Although the amount of data contained in the VJ space rep

Is that why you haven't filled in your timeline?

US citizen filing for k1 visa, Australian fiancee. ... 209 days and waiting... :(

Hi Hatrick,

Looks like you are just waiting for an agent to dust off that box your application sits in! It looks like applications around your time are being processed but that still means very little. You basically have two choices 1) be patient and wait 2) start shouting and messaging USCIS etc.

Option 2 is unlikely to have much affect but if you want to feel like you are trying every avenue you can then you can message USCIS for error in processing and then try the ombudmans stating a delay beyond the 5 month.

Again option 2 is unlikely to speed up your petition, it's more whether you feel it will help deal with the wait!

Not much else you can do, good luck!

Apologies if this question has been covered already. When filing for an I-129F visa, is there any criteria that dictates whether it goes to TSC or CSC? Or is it purely a lottery?

Thanks for the response. My partner's permanent address in the USA is in Ohio. I'm fearing that means the dreaded TSC will be handling our file in that case... :clock:

I'm there with you! It's been 209 days for us as well....

I hope we all get our noa2 this week!! I'm keeping positive, but yeah, this wait is ridiculous!! When I see people being approved that filed in August, September at TSC, happy as I am for them, I still wonder if our application has been missed..

Hmm...it would be weird that the CSC notifications are working but the TSCs aren't given its the same system...

Anyway, congrats on your approval - I hope you get the hard copy soon. I am so cynical today a part of me is thinking they may have just told this to the senator to get him/her of their backs.

I understand your doubts. I did get the hard copy NOA2 in the mail, so I was reassured by that. My status on the USCIS website is STILL showing as Case Received. This should at least give people hope that cases are being processed at the TSC despite the lack of updates.
