FINALLY ONE APPROVAL!!!!! CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!

Hey Mirla nothing yet??!!! VSC is really on Pause. Have you called recently?

Nothing at all.....I think there's no life over there. I don't understand what's going on, Pat keeps asking me what's going on with this, everybody ask when are you coming back and he just doesn't understand why is taking so long...neither do I. I will call on monday though...

The sad thing is that no one on here, even the old timers, can give any explaination other that USCIS is "swamped". It also appears we are in uncharted waters regarding timelines. We all knew we were going to have to wait for our visas but we had a historical timeline that gave us hope we would get it within a certain number of days. That has all changed in the last several months. It appears that there is nothing to rely on regarding the average number of days until an approval. Even what was an average last month has already changed this month and will change again next month.

It seems that even though we have the same waiting game, we have different waiting times and, no one knows what those times seem to be. :blink:

It appears all new approvals are in the 130-145 day from filing range.

Just want to say hi to everyone, I just found VJ a few weeks ago and this is my first post. I was introduced to the love of my life Beth a little over a year ago. Long story short... chatted, traveled, met, proposed, filed for K1 May 3rd, CSC got it on May 7th, traveled back again, now just waiting like everyone else here. VJ says I might get the approval Sept. 18th and man I hope that turns out to be true! After having your heart and plans set on 90 days or so 135 days now seems like an eternity.

I'm so encouraged by the few May approvals that are beginning to show up here. Best of luck to all of us, hopefully this will be a busy week for USCIS.
