It is a complete waste of time to call USCIS customer service.  

That is their standard answer.  They just say the same thing that the website shows.  There are already some early April approvals.  Just be patient a little longer.  We are all in the same boat and at least we are seeing some April approvals so it is moving.

 

PHILIPPINES ONLY!!!  CFO (Commission on Filipinos Overseas) INFO - Can't leave home without it!

 

PDOS (Pre-Departure Registration and Orientation Seminar) is for ages 20-59.  Peer Counseling is for 13-19 years of age.

It is required to have the visa in their passport for PDOS and Peer Counseling.

 

GCP (Guidance and Counseling Program) is for K-1 Fiancee and IR/CR-1 spouse ONLY.

Not to mention they get more petitions in a day than we have active on April Filers.

 

They could be making better progress than we think.

Welcome to the April family! Enjoy with us the rest of your wait, that I hope it's really short now :)

 

I've taken a look to your timeline, and just two tips. NOA1 date on the timeline is your notice date, not received. And your service center is California, not Texas (that was only the lockbox and all K1's are sent to California nowadays). That way you'll get your estimate, that I bet it's 13-19 right now, since my received date is one day before yours :P

Thanks for the tips! I'll make sure to adjust the exact NOA1 date when I get home today. It would be the perfect anniversary gift we could receive, if our NOA2 indeed comes on the week of the 13th! :D

 

I never received any texts, calls or e-mails for the NOA1, only the hard copy. Any chance they might let me know electronically about the NOA2...? Snail mail might drive me crazy! :jest:

March 28: I-129F sent

April 7: I-129F received

April 12: NOA1 date

April 17: NOA1 (hardcopy received)

August 16: NOA2 date

August 21: NOA2 (hardcopy received)

Make sure you're signed up for that. USCIS.gov or use link to their site here on VJ.

It hasn't been updating anything except RFE's for weeks now but who knows.

Well forgot the post but my Fiancee and I finally got our NOA2 it came in the mail Saturday. I literally checked the mailbox 4 times that day. Finally, as I was driving home I saw a mail truck down the road so figured why not check one more time and there it was! Haha maybe I was going a bit crazy 😂. I hope the rest of you receive yours soon!

 

In case you were wondering here are the dates:

 

USCIS Received i129f: March 29th

NOA1: April 5th

NOA2: August 1st

OMG OMG OMG: our NOA1 is also April 5th ;)
I need to tell my fiancé to leave work early and check his mailbox! Great News! Congrats !!!
