June 2017 I-129F Filers, Part III

[Lotts 1,433]

That's a whooooooooooooole lot of info. 

I'm so happy to see things being done. I just want to know what my RFE is for so I can get that in ASAP.

 

Also... Is there a pinned topic about the shutdown anywhere? It's been answered or responded to many, many times before.

Hello everyone!

 

At least finally finally yesterday USCIS decided to update status online!

I couldn't wait to finally be able to report some good news!

 

Here are the overall activities for January after the updates of yesterday.

 

	June	July	Total
Jan W1	231	4	235
Jan W2	311	22	333
Jan W3	551	323	874
Total	1093	349	1442

 

I'm sure you can see how different it looks when they actually update things online!

We still have lots of cases (dates) that are not updated in the first part of June. 

But here are the latest view into every month!

 

	June	July	Aug	Sept	Oct	Nov	Dec	Total
Approved	1317	263	13	6		1		1600
Received	1358	2941	3519	3176	3770	3304	3297	21365
Touched	996	206	139	129	128	67	27	1692
Excluded	370	386	404	287	244	205	185	2081
Total	4041	3796	4075	3598	4142	3577	3509	26738

 

Here is how the June is going on at the moment:

It changed so much from yesterday's graph it made me cry....

 

 

Now I admit everybody from every day is waiting. and everyone hit 200s 

But we are all here...hoping that they will come. and this will be over.

 

Please stay positive, even though it is hard.

Because spending those days in dark won't suddenly bring NOA2, but your health and your passion towards your relationship may suffer.

 

I know being sad is so easy, and saying don't be also sounds so easy. But we are here,your partner is also here with you. Please remember that

 

Love you all...I'm a little emotional this week...

CONGRATULATIONS EVERYBODY! 

 

Seems like it’s been raining approvals. 

You all deserve it and I am so very happy for you! 

Also, seems like NVC is picking up the pace! 

 

Smile everybody that has been approved. You only have one quarter to go 😊

 

 

for the ones that haven’t, you guys rock. I admire your strength. 

It’s going to happen. You don’t need government to hold your hand. It’s going to happen and all will be worth it! ♥️

There are topics in discussion places but what I realized, it all goes into a huge discussion with negative and positive. so here are what I find and what I believe.

 

https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2018/01/19/us/politics/government-shutdown-employee-effects.html?smid=pl-share

 

https://edition.cnn.com/2018/01/17/politics/what-happens-government-shutdown-explainer-congress-budget/index.html

 

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_agencies_affected_by_the_United_States_federal_government_shutdown_of_2013

 

What I understand;

 

USCIS wont get affected.

NVC is also funded mainly by fees and embassies wont get affected until their budgets run out.

They are budgeted every 2 years.

Visa issuance may get affected depending on the budget.

Labor related visas gets affected because of the affects on Department of Labor.

 

Shutdowns doesn't go for months and months. It is usually only 2 weeks or less.

 

And unless it goes waaay long it wont affect us suddenly. 

 

On another note, my fiance who worked for the government before, explained as we don't get paid but not every single person stops going to work. 

And it depends on the department. So I am not worried. but again... these are my personal opinions

 

*While writing this  a notice came from when I commented on government shutdown so here goes the vj topic:

Mine literally JUST updated to approved online.

 

Seems they are doing some backdating work before the weekend so I’ll hold off on a scan until tomorrow and since it will be Saturday, please be patient! I promise to do it as soon as possible but with them updating now, I want to capture as much as possible to get some better accuracy than recent...

 

Sleep well everyone!

Approved 1/16! got email last nite.  Good luck to all

So Savannah is Visiting me for the week. Today is our last day together before she flies back tomorrow. We woke up this morning with a heavy feeling in our hearts and Savannah soon started to cry knowing she would have to leave me tomorrow. While holding her and trying to make her feel better I decided to check the app for any movement yesterday.

 

I couldn't quite believe it but... WE WERE APPROVED yesterday!!! What an amazing feeling to go from such a low moment together to such a high!! 

 

It seems they are really getting there act together and I'm praying for the rest of the Junies to see approval very soon!!

We haven't heard a a peep from anyone.  I have a congressional inquiry and a Tier I inquiry.  No online or informed delivery notifications.  There are still a few of us June 6 filers in the same boat.  We just picked the wrong day to file.

Same like ours! Plenty of cases received  dated June 12th that until now we heard nothing about our case. But as what the saying goes, "Patience is a virtue", but how about "time is gold"

We are hoping to get our approval soon. Next week will be another week to be hopeful!

[mark004 19]

Approved!!! Got Email last night. Good luck all

They are doing the updates. I hope you get something soon @John & Rose ☺️

 

 

[Lotts 1,433]

Oh my. 

Out of my excitement and such, I've said to him that I want to visit every state eventually. 

 

For you California folk or those wanting to visit... I think this is a well needed/deserved trip 🍷🍷🍷🍷

 

Congratulations to everyone so far. Let's keep them approvals coming.

@KBA and all the others waiting (maybe not so) patiently. Your time will come. These last days are always the hardest. But you can do this. You've waited for so long, these last few days will not break you!
