Who is still waiting from the Philippines? I guess they would’ve given us a denial instead of the NOA one if there was a major problem. I just want to hear something....... approval of course but I would even take a RFE at this point at least I know that someone would be looking at it

Some things to be aware of while waiting that could be fixed early, saving you more time if they pertain to you. The PSA in the Philippines is notorious for misspellings and missing information on birth certificates. You should look over your BC to make sure everything is correct as well as your passport. Now is the time to get that corrected. You might want to get a copy of your NBI to see if there are any problems with it. Again, now is a better time to get it corrected if you find something wrong. Be sure to use all your AKA's when they do the search. Make sure your passport doesn't expire any time before a year from now as this is a long process and you could be running around getting a new one at the last minute. So get it renewed if it is expiring in 2019.

 

Also, there is a sub-forum for the Philippines here on VJ that you should be a part of. It's a good place to read what others are experiencing which will only prepare you for your interview.

I can guarantee they will notify you when YOUR case has been adjudicated with their answer. Calling is just a fruitless exercise because you will not move the case forward until such time as they complete all your background checks. Even a congress person is told that they cannot influence the decision. Let me share some information about what takes place. (Keep checking the website and be on the look out for "silent" approvals that come in the mail).

RE: I-129F Case

USCIS is committed to adjudicating immigration benefits in a timely manner while also ensuring public safety and national security. A small percentage of applications and petitions have unresolved background check issues that temporarily delay adjudication. Although USCIS makes every effort to resolve such cases promptly, USCIS is unable to speculate when the background check will be completed. 

 

If a background check reveals an issue that may impact an applicant’s eligibility for the requested immigration benefit, further inquiry is needed. The inquiry may include an additional interview and/or contact with another agency for updates or more comprehensive information. Upon gathering and assessing all available information, USCIS will adjudicate the application as quickly as possible. 

 

USCIS realizes that the constituent may be frustrated by the progress of their case. However, the agency must balance individual inconvenience against broader issues of public safety and national security.
