October 2015 -- I-129F Filers [edited title]

[Mrs U 49]

I'll be joining up this group shortly, my fiance will be sending out our petition next week. After agonizing over the petition, and stalking these forums, it's almost time for us to really get in the game! I'm excited!!

Welcome! We took around 2 months to prepare our petition and yes it was agonizing. Many questions, many fears that we were doing everything right.

I keep reading that patience in important, and that we still have a long way to go.

Hopefully sharing our experiences in this forum will make things better for all of us.

I'll be joining this group shortly. Waiting for some additional paperwork then I'll send my documents mid Oct.

Welcome!

Yup, I've seen a lot of the applications are sent to CSC, wish mine will be sent there too!!

Our application was received Sep 30th. I have not received a text or e-mail but the check was cashed yesterday. Should I worry at this point?

Our application was delivered on Sep 24, but was registered as received until the next day (Sep. 25) We got the email notification until Sep 30. That is 5 days. We should get the hard copy of the NOA1 by post by the end of this week.

Did you add the G-1145 e-notification of Application Form in your petition package?

If you did, check that the email and phone number were correctly written. Check that the mail didn't go to your spam folder. It should be sent by the following sender: Do_Not_Reply_Lockbox@dhs.gov

If the check was cashed it's probable that your application was considered as received so you must get a hard copy of your NOA1 from 7 to 10 days after it got received (Oct. 15 aprox.)

The only way you can follow on the status of your case is by the receipt number that is sent to you via the email notification and the Hard copy of the NOA1.

The receipt number starts with 3 letters followed by 10 numbers depending on were your case was sent. WAC is California Service Center, SRC is Texas, LIN is Nebraska and EAC is Vermont.

Once you get your receipt number you can track your status in MyUSCIS at

https://egov.uscis.gov/casestatus/landing.do

Or download the app named Case tracker in iOS

Hope this is helpful

Yes it does. Thank you so much. No G1145 was not added, so I will not get an e-mail then. That makes sense.

Has anyone in this October forum received the hard copy in the mail yet?

We sent our petition on Sept 30. Our check hasn't been cashed yet and we haven't received an email notification either. Is it too early to worry about it. When should we expect it to be cashed?

Looks like they cashed your check today? of so everything is fine. What was your app sent? California I hope.

Yeah I got the notification a few hours after I posted here but couldn't find a way to edit my post. And yes our case did go to CSC which I hope is faster.

Awesome. Congrats! I still have to wait to receive my hard copy letter to find out if it went to CSC

Congrats! I am still waiting for mine to be delivered, hope mine will be sent to CSC too!

[RKX1101 17]

To AS&JS: I think most of the K1s go to CSC but you have to wait for the letter to confirm it. My notification said to wait 7-10 day for the letter so I guess thats the time it will take. When did you send your petition?
