I'm sorry, my lovely boys and girls, but I'm a woman of my word, so... Back to the countdown! (Count-up? )

 

Day 120 (125 since received date)

Still not waiting for anything in the mail, so it doesn't matter it's too early for the Informed Delivery email.

I've never been closer to catch my timeline  3 days away... though I'm pretty sure it's going to move a little bit again 

 

Anyway, I've just checked cases for the 3-6 April range and I've seen 2-3 more new RFE's issued this week for April 3rd cases, a few cases that show name updated as of yesterday (weird) and... guess what? An approval for April 4th received date. So yep, I think they are moving slowly, since working March cases at the same time, but still moving

 

Have a great day you all!

 

And @Trinab80, since you are leaving tomorrow to visit your other half, hope you have a nice trip and a great stay 

 

I know this has been asked before, but can I ask again... what app are you guys using? I thought I downloaded the right one, but I'm not finding any way to see cases that are being processed. I have the apps "Case Tracker" and "USCISApp".

First are you iPhone or Android?  For the iPhone the app that you want is: Case Tracker & Searcher - for USCIS Immigration.  The name on it is Stephen Aldous.  

 

For the Android I am not sure since I have an iPhone.

I appreciate everyone here being so supportive.  I hate posting here when all I am feeling is sad.  I feel like a whiner and I don't like feeling that way.  One of the things I like most about being on this site is the people here.  Everyone helps everyone else.  We all feel down at times and get uplifted by talking on here.  I know that others have said it, but it is nice to talk with people that understand what we are going thru with this process.  How much it takes out of us and the toll that it takes on both the Petitioner and the Beneficiary.  

 

I do have to say, my Monica is the religious one, not me.  I hope that we get our NOA2's this week as well.  I know that @tcovington has things that need to get taken care of ASAP.  Good luck to us all.  

I can relate to and agree with everything you said 100%. Including the fact I'm not a religious person either, but I do respect anyone's believes

 

@Knifeboxx Thanks a lot for the update. NVC is moving fast indeed, and even better they sent you an email saving you the hassle of calling.

@bjd, you should definitely call them on Friday!

 

@PygmyPuff I have two apps installed, both called USCIS Case Status (both Android). The one from Spinach is good because it has alerts for similar cases, but you only can scan 3 times a day and a maximum of 50 cases each time. The one from Aries software doesn't have alerts, but allows you to scan up to a hundred cases each time, and it only locks your IP when you scan like 2000 cases (might be less than that, but not for much).

 

What I personally do is using the April Excel and look for the specific numbers using both, the USCIS case tracker manually searching, and the Aries app for checking batches that fit the numbers in the list.

Hah! Not sure if I've explained myself. Things are always crystal clear in my head, but maybe not as much when I have to let them out, not to mention in English

If you're looking for notifications from other I-129F cases being processed the iOS apps don't do it, only the Android USCIS APP does it. The Case Tracker app on iOS lets you scan a range of 500 applications. While it has filters to just show I-129F cases it includes every other case type in the number range of the 500 cases being scanned.

But you can add them to your cases and you will be able to see them easier.

DAY 129  (Day 135 since Received Date) Nothing in Informed Delivery

 

I feel for you.  Our dates for NOA1 are the same.  I have it at 129 days since NOA1 including today.   It is rough not being with the person that you love.  You hold onto hope that you will get the information that you want so much, that elusive NOA2, that says you are approved and moving on to the next step.  Right now I have a love/hate relationship with Informed Delivery.  

 

I hate being so down.  My love is the one that is cool and collected.  She says it will happen.  I am the most impatient on it.  I do love to see the happy people posting about their approval, jealous of course, but happy.  

 

One Day More... One Day Less... One Day Closer... 

Lol neither Jonathan or I are what you would call calm and collected. We're both control freaks and on top of this DoD we're both going nutso.

That's the one you can set up to get alerts when USCIS updates cases.

Yep, Friday since like a good day to try. Hope they can give you all the information already. Keeps us posted!

 

Hope that works! At least it sounds as it shouldn't be USCIS business anymore since the petition is out of there, but yeah, better not to leave loose ends.

Good luck!

yeah, we have to face the local consulate if that happens.. and we have to be strong for our proof and will.. ☺️🙏 Thankyou
