There is no record of anyone getting an RFE for typing vs writing in that box. If you find someone who got an RFE for that, please let us all know.

All the best February 2016 Filers, I'm a February 2015 Filer, best advise is to be patient, make sure you send off all the documents to avoid RFE's, and during the NVC stage, they can send you a check

No, I know that. What I mean is they have (unfortunately) been given the backlog from Texas plus their own new cases. There are people there with NOA1 dates from July. So if ours has been sent there,

Have any of you considered filing I-129F for K-3? This wait is getting to me and seeing Nebraska processs only two cases a day from my batch and how many January filers are still waiting, I'm thinking a K-3 might be an option.

I've not. I was under the impression that the processing time was about equal? To be honest, I've not checked though. Would be interested if it'd save any time.

This is frustrating. I was hoping it would be sent to California and be processed first.

We thought seriously about it, but there is a 5 month processing time for it as well. Now that the I-130 has already had about 4 months for you, there's almost no way that it would even be looked at before your I-130 is done.

Hey guys, I've been following this forum for a couple of months. Hang in there! Our I-130 was processed through the Nebraska Service Center. We had a PD of February 22nd, and we were approved today! I hope to see more approvals soon. Good luck to you all! Anyone know where I can get some advice on the next steps? I wanted to start preparing for the NVC process right away, but seems like you can't do much until you get a case number.

Congratulations!

Here's the info you need for the next step http://www.visajourney.com/wiki/index.php/NVC_Process

While you wait for your case number you can start getting your police certificates and other civil documents ready.

May the rest of your journey be smooth...
