Hello everyone! 

 

I thought I'd say hello here as our NOA1 date is the 1st of May! I hope everyone's staying strong during this difficult wait.

Hard copy of our noa1 is dated as may 3rd, on the app and website it says apr 28th, and it says: 95 days since the last status change. Either way its been so long and the waiting is killing us

at least there will be no more goodbyes

Hi All,

 

Not sure if this info has been shared already but just spoke with a family friend who works at the CSC in Aliso Viejo - he said that they are experiencing MAJOR delays due to K1s being deprioritized in favor of other more urgent immigration cases.  He mentioned that a massive caseload of Haitian immigration applications landed on their desks and they've had to pull a lot of the K1 case reviewers onto the job - apparently, the Temporary Protected Status for those affected by the earthquake got extended so now they are trying to process as many cases as they can so that people don't get deported. Since it's a human rights issue, they've been mandated to prioritze those cases. He said they are so underwater that they've apparently authorized overtime pay for adjudicators for the first time in a long time. He said I should be expecting a minimum of 120+ days since NOA1 to hear from them. I'm a May/June cusp filer, so I've got quite a ways to go still it seems.   

 

While I'm cranky about the delays, I feel a bit better knowing why - thought you guys might want to know as well.  

 

He didn't know anything about the app or the cadence of approvals/status updates.

 

In the meantime, congrats to those who did manage to get some good news this month.

Hi folks,

 

Not sure if this has been posted here yet, but we just found this on the March filers forum.  This could explain the delays.

 

Hang in there!

Hang in there!

I wish USCIS were more open about things like this.. I've been looking in the news for some reason for why they haven't been approving I-129fs and found nothing...( I was starting to make up crazy scenarios already)

Now that I know I feel more at peace knowing that other people that require immediate assistance are being prioritized  and that our time will come after they are done with those cases..

So lets just keep drinking, exercising, overworking, or whatever it is that we do to cope with this long wait for a little longer

 

Blessings to all
