Wich app do u use to track the progress of your cases for android???

I just use the USCIS website, because unless I am mistaken, that's where all of the update info comes from anyway -- so why use an app that pushes ads, or pay for an ad-less ap when the info is freely retrievable?

I think there was some kind of changeover back in Nov/Dec/Jan that resulted in a big backlog for the CSC, and they may have started to pull ahead of it in the last few weeks... just trying to read the tea leaves in what *might* be initial trends. Kind of hoping the 13 week NOA1>NOA2 drops to 9-10 weeks by the end of July.

Let's hope for that! I think the changeover was Trump 😂😂😂

I've already posted in this thread, but got the NOA1 notice yesterday! It's nice knowing that it is on its way to be processed, then will be processed, et cetera. We've talked a lot about this period between the NOA1 and NOA2 so I'm glad it's game time now. Good luck to everyone and can't wait to hear everyone  getting approval in a few months.

Within 2 months of just knowing each other you have filed an I-129F? Am I reading this right?

Be sure to start collecting a lot of information for proof of ongoing  relationship the US Embassy will likely want to see that.

I previously was involved with someone there who I only knew for a few months and it did not end well.

Be careful and take your time.

Hi All! Can anyone help me with this question. My beneficiary is Italian but he lives in the U.K., so when asked which consulate he would like to have his interview we put Edinburgh because that is nearest to him.  I read a few places that it is okay for him to choose a consulate that is not his home country but is closest to where he currently lives. Can anyone confirm what I am thinking is correct?
