I-129F April 2016 Filers

[justwhitney87 0]

As long as we're waiting for this week to kick off...

Looking at the stats, last week was the best for pending VJ K-1s since 4/18-4/24. For the three weeks from 4/25-5/15, total VJ approvals went down from 15, to 12, to 10. The average number of days from NOA1 to NOA2 for those approved in those week went up from 77 to 82 to 90.

For last week, 5/16-5/22, there were 23 approvals, and the average number of days from NOA1 to NOA2 dropped from 90 to 87. So, over the last week:

-Total VJ K-1 approval pace more than doubled, week over week and nearly doubled compared to the prior three week average.

-The average wait time to NOA2 dropped for the first time in four weeks.

Every day I see 5 approvals or more, I'll know we're accelerating. Less than 5, I'll know we're slipping again. Although it seems like approvals ramp up toward the middle and end of the work week, from what I've seen. So maybe a bad Monday isn't a killer.

Thanks for the positive perspective!

Hi Everyone!!! I had yet to join a monthly filers thread but after lurking on March '16 for a while and having a NOA1 date of 3/29, decided to join here! Let's hurry up and wait together

How do you know your case Was touched?

Through the USCIS site. You have to create an account with them though! It'll show when your case was last updated.

At the beginning, my VJ timeline was July 4-July 8 and now it's July 15-July 20

Does anyone know what 'adjudicated' means in the timeline? Like this is when we will receive our NOA2...? Or when everything will be signed, sealed and delivered and I will have a visa in my hand?

I have been using mostly the app and there you don't see it. Mine LUD was 05/05/2016.

Exciting to see the case is being touched or handled in any way by USCIS. It gives a nightlight at the end of the tunnel.

This is excellent break down of the numbers

So far for this week, 5/23 there were 5 and 5/24 we had 4, averaging 4.5 per day. This is not bad at all and so far seems in line with that you are seeing

Just checked the USCIS Processing Times for CSC, before for i-129f it's showing a date of December 16, 2015, now it's back to 5 months

Can't wait for our NOA2.

Supposedly, thats a good thing when its back to 5 months??? You are right, we cant wait to get our NOA2. Lets pray hard and claim it!!!

[cricketman 22]

Yes that means they are moving on pace . They have wording on the site but it can be confusing, but it boils down to this :

1) If the "Processing Cases As Of Date:" says 5 months ( or 4 or 3) thats good because they are meeting a goal

2) If that column lists an exact date then they are experiencing a delay.

Supposedly, thats a good thing when its back to 5 months??? You are right, we cant wait to get our NOA2. Lets pray hard and claim it!!!
