I see people with their timeline listing below the line in a signature.  How do you do that?

You sent it to the lockbox in Texas, that's not the Texas Service Center.   All I-129f petitions are being processed by CSC.

 

I hope they get the mistake corrected with your child!

 Oh I could have sworn they processed in Tx too, since that's where he was told to send it to because he's in OK. Didn't know we could have saved a few days and just send it straight to CSC instead of having them re-route it. 

 

And thanks  He's visiting next Friday so if no response from them after his return then on June 1st that phone would be hot.

All petitions are sent to the address listed on USCIS directions, that's the lockbox in Texas.  The lockbox opens petitions and routes them to the correct service center.   CSC is currently the only service center processing I-129f's.

Thank you for the welcome, glad we are here.

Hope everyone is doing well and is ready for summer. Reading the other progress threads, it looks like USCIS isn't updating electronically until further notice.  Having thought about it, I believe at this point there is really no advantage to doing scans in the future.  Looking at the glass half full, USCIS is still hard at work and approvals are going out regardless, albeit by regular mail.  Also, if you take into account the standard deviation of cases, the general estimates for processing times on VJ are really quite accurate.  Knowing when different cases are touched, really doesn't add any value to that imo. In the end scans really weren't giving us any more useful information than we had before geowrian started doing them back in December.  Especially since it put people more on edge, instead of calming them.  And helping people through the process in my mind is the whole point of doing it in the first place.  (Unless you like to analyze big data for fun.   ) 

 

Best wishes to all on this thread.  I am glad we can support each other on here and help each other through the long process.

Well, I do think the scans gave more accurate information than just having people saying they got an approval here on VJ. Mostly because people here are just a small sample and also because they tend to be inconsistent when stating their NOA1 dates.

 

Then, I agree the scans right now are completely useless. Only if we could get to know they fixed the system they would make any sense.

 

Also I'm going to add for everyone on this thread, that might not know because we never make a public announcement, @Cruise77 was our own personal IT that was going to take care of scans, so you should listen what he has to say about it. He knows the drill.

Are the scans really useless if they give my anxious brain something to latch on to?

 

Did I introduce myself? Not sure if I have. I have been lurking for about a month and posted a bit here & there. 

Me = E, the US citizen petitioner, him = C, the Cuban citizen beneficiary. Got NOA 1 on April 4 & more is in my signature. 
 

Happy waiting!

Well, the broken scans wouldn't give any peace of mind to your brain, that's for sure  Then I'm the one that has to say I'm working on getting case numbers manually (sloooowly) if only to know how many cases there are for my day and month

 

And oh, yes! Welcome, lurker

Thank you for the welcome.  Looking forward to talking to people as the process moves along.  It is good to have people to talk to that are going through the same thing.  I, the US petitioner am the anxious one, I guess.  She, the Filipino beneficiary seems to be more laid back on this.
