Hello everyone,

 

I read on a FB group that one person with PD in January 2019 got their NOA2 notice few days ago - from NEBRASKA. Very nice lady who explained that they didn't expedite but that their lawyer applied for both I130 and I129F - and the I130 got approved within 4 months...

Do you guys think that applying for I129F can actually make them hurry on I130 process? (as we all know they don't really issue K3 visas anymore)...

 

 

Which FB group is this? I can't find this post in I-130 filers group. Thanks!

My I130 case also went to NSC and the submission receipt date is June 13, 2018. Exactly 11 months today and hopefully hear back soon. 

 

I saw some other posts from May 28 submission who still have not heard back so not sure how realistic it is to expect something. 

 

Also had contacted my Senator who submitted a request for update for me, but USCIS gave the same response to the senator, contact us again in 60 days.

Here in solidarity! My date is June 6th, 2018. And so far on case tracker, only RFEs around my number, not approvals. Part of me just wants to stop even checking all those things because it doesn't seem to be moving. On June 5th, I can contact them again.

I know someone whose petition was received on 1/18/19 and got approved on 3/28/19. Her service center was Nebraska. She is currently at NVC stage. It's shocking that she got approved so fast. No expedite. They are definitely not reviewing cases by oldest date. It must be random.

After reading everywhere around this forum that K3 were obsolete it is a joke to read right now that it was the way to go faster.  Makes no sense. 

K3 is obsolete but I guess the theory here is, “if you petition for a K3 they’ll look at it faster and just throw away the 129-F and continue processing as a CR1”. However this is probably just a coincidence, I doubt it makes them look at it any faster

Finally something semi-encouraging! Press release from US Hispanic Caucus linked here: https://congressionalhispaniccaucus-castro.house.gov/media-center/press-releases/chc-chair-castro-and-81-democrats-demand-gao-investigate-uscis-record

Basically, Castro and 81 House dems demand that GAO investigate USCIS’ “record-breaking backlog”! I do wish it referenced the disparity in processing centers though...

 

Dallas Morning News covered the story here: https://www.dallasnews.com/news/immigration/2019/05/13/joaquin-castro-house-dems-ask-watchdog-look-record-breaking-immigration-backlog-trump

I wish it would say I-130 forms, but none of the forms is our form, but yea they won't address it with precision.
