Congrats!!!! Wishing you a short NVC wait!

Thank you! I also hope for a short wait, but let's see... I'll be updating on here as I go along, and also looking out for how everyone else is doing!

My ticker (see below) is protesting: instead of reading “6 months 2 days”, it’s in denial reading “5 months 4 weeks 2 days”. Lol

Your ticker really didn't want you to cross over into the 6 month threshold 😂 Maybe I need one of these too as a good luck charm hahah

I agree. I see all the RFE updates and think they are doing some approvals but are not updating it (Silent NOA2s)

And that also explains why November 16th filers were approved before May 27th filers.  Everyone knows that November is too cold for terrorists to submit petitions... Maybe "the sooner you file, the sooner you are approved" is not necessarily true with USCIS.

In terms of terrorists, one of the San Bernardino shooters came on a K-1 visa so I feel they are looking more closer at K-1s now in the Trump era.

I don't believe anyone here would argue against strong vetting and security.  If that is why I'm at 9 months then I completely understand.  That doesn't explain August, October and November approvals though.  If they are extreme vetting May and June, why do some November non-expedited filers get approval in under 70 days?  The extreme vetting argument disappears when some filers are approved in 68 days while others are waiting 270.

totally agree

I have to say I fee really bad for you. Every time I read this ... it is just unbelievable to me and I agree 100% with you that you have a right to question. I certainly would if it was my case as well. I can only pray for a quick response for you and yours and I most certainly will do such thing!

[John & Rose 7,239]

and to be honest...what do they actually know about the beneficiary?  A name and a birthdate.  USCIS doesn't have access to every database in every country.  The passport number isn't even required.  In the June forum, one of the recently approved filers from the UK noted that the "security check" performed is ONLY on the US citizen and that USCIS does not have access to all US databases.  There is a stamp on the front of the file stating this fact and the disclaimer that they are not responsible if the USC is actually a criminal...

 

So, background checks only take a few minutes to complete and only the US citizen is checked.  Extreme vetting may not be any excuse at all.
