I-129F May 2017 Filers

[Hey Jude 266]

According to the charts, they are working on the final days of April filers, April 28th it seems. They should be hitting us May filers soon. Average approval time between Noa 1 and Noa 2 seems to be about 140-150 days. Once we receive the Noa 2 things move a lot faster. This is the longest process between Noa1 and Noa2. Keep the faith my VJ friends!

128 days. From here time frame140-150 days looks like a long-long wait.... Will we finally reach the end of this tunnel???

The official answer given by the Tier 2 was that they are only working on February cases and who am I to state otherwise. Once they publish the (overdue) quarterly stats (https://www.uscis.gov/tools/reports-studies/immigration-forms-data/data-set-all-uscis-application-and-petition-form-types) we might see what the holdup was/is. That being said, data from VJ shows the following:

I doubt you'll be waiting another 85 days… USCIS seems to be giving that line out because they probably don't know the exact timeframe. They seem to be super backlogged since March and playing major catch-up...

 

150 days seems to be the new normal. If you ever hit the 6 month mark contact your Senator!

150 days still forever but if true then most of us are almost there.

You mean police clearance? Police clearances have expiry date. It will not be wise to get it while waiting for NOA2.

I was told the nbi? was good for a year, and the the us embassy wanted them less than 6 months old

If ur fiance has lived in another country for over 6 months in the past 5 years, they need a police clearance from that country also

I saw ur fiance is from the Philippines, she also needs to do a class for filipinos moving overseas, or they wont b let out of the country

I wonder if they need to be less then 6 months? She has her already. The CFO is a one day class and you sign up for it in manila or cebu. I was confused on NBI i heard it both ways

Yes I thought they was good for 1 year like someone else said

If you mean the NBI, yes it is valid for 1 year. But if you are talking about a regular police clearance, then that has a different expiry date.

I think it was my lawyer that said the US likes them 6 months or newer

 

My fiance got her nbi last week, is doing the cfo in 2 weeks, and is going next week to get her police clearance from Taiwan next week (takes 4-6 weeks)

I dont know if this reliable or something i just made some research because they say that vermont service centers are the fastest on k1 petitions i am wondering why our papers ended up with california from TX when infact new york is covered by vermont centers? vermnt is already in June now
