Tragically, it’ll be an RFE according to USCIS. If I had filed after the rule change, it would have been rejected.

That's not the change, though. Rejected is sent back at *this* stage-- basically by the mailroom clerk (well, steps above that) for being incomplete. The only problem with that is re-sending it. The policy change was between RFEs and NOIDs (Notice of Intent to Deny). Rejection is different than denial. So I'm wondering (I don't know) but wondering if because the green card is listed as the initial evdience requirement if it would be rejected at this stage instead of pushed through waiting for an RFE

 

If it helps, I forgot something in our I-129f (just a check box about if your fiance had been to the US before, I left it blank by accident because it had a weird placement on the form). I had our receipt number, and sent in a fresh page with that question answered, a copy of NOA1 with the barcode and a little note explaining what this was for. I have NO idea if it got there or if it helped, but we were approved a week later. If it's not rejected at this stage, and you're waiting for the RFE you know is coming, you may want to try that approach and see if it helps. 

Marriage/ AOS Timeline:

23 Dec 2015: Legal marriage

23 Jan 2016: Wedding!

23 Jan 2016: "Blizzard of the Century", wedding canceled/rescheduled (thank goodness we were legally married first or we'd have had a big problem!) :sleepy:

24 Jan 2016: Small "civil ceremony" with friends and family who were snowed in with us. December was a bit of a secret and people had traveled internationally and knew we *had* to get married that weekend, and our December legal marriage was nothing but signing a piece of paper at our priest's kitchen table, without any sort of vows etc so this was actually a very special (if not legally significant) day. (L)

16 Apr 2016: Filed for AOS and EAD/AP (We delayed a bit-- no big rush, enjoying the USCIS break)

23 Apr 2016: Wedding! Finally! :luv:

27 Apr 2016: Electronic NOA1 for all 3 :dancing:
29 Apr 2016: NOA1 Hardcopy for all 3
29 Jul 2016: Online service request for late EAD (Day 104)
29 Jul 2016: EAD/AP Approved ~3 hours after online service request
04 Aug 2016: RFE for Green Card (requested medicals/ vaccination record. They already have it). :ranting:
05 Aug 2016: EAD/AP Combo Card arrived! (Day 111)
08 Aug 2016: Congressional constituent request to get guidance on the RFE. Hoping they see they have the form and approve!

K-1 Visa Timeline:

PLEASE NOTE. This timeline was during the period of time when TSC was working on I-129fs and had a huge backlog. The average processing time was 210+ days. This is in no way predictive of your own timeline if you filed during or after April 2015, unless CSC develops a backlog. A backlog is anything above the 5-month goal time listed on USCIS's site

14 Feb 2015: Mailed I-129f to Dallas Lockbox. (L) (Most expensive Valentine's card I've ever sent!)

17 Feb 2015: NOA1 "Received Date"
19 Feb 2015: NOA1 Notice Date
08 Aug 2015: NOA2 email! :luv: (173 days from NOA1)

17 Aug 2015: Sent to NVC

?? Aug 2015: Arrived at NVC

25 Aug 2015: NVC Case # Assigned

31 Aug 2015: Left NVC for Consulate in San Jose

09 Sep 2015: Consulate received :dancing: (32 days from NOA2)

11 Sep 2015: Packet 3 emailed from embassy to me, the petitioner (34 days from NOA2).

18 Sep 2015: Medicals complete

21 Sep 2015: Packet 3 complete, my boss puts a temporary moratorium on all time off due to work emergency :clock:

02 Oct 2015: Work emergency clears up, interview scheduled (soonest available was 5 business days away--Columbus Day was in there)

13 Oct 2015: Interview

13 Oct 2015: VISA APPROVED :thumbs: (236 days from NOA1)

19 Oct 2015: Visa-in-hand

24 Oct 2015: POE !

15 Dec 2015: Fiance's mother's B-2 visa interview: APPROVED! So happy she will be at the wedding! :thumbs:

Oh wow! I am getting so worried... I send it 09/11/2018, but I send it to CSC because I thought that is where I was suppose to send it. I am in the DFW area as well, but online it said California Service Center. What shall I do?

I am thinking about calling USCIS again, but I already did that last week and they told me it could take up to 30 days which would be October 12th. I just do not want to wait that long, because what if they did not receive it and I have to send the whole thing again... I am starting to panic a little bit.

I am also a September 2018 filer for my Roc. Sent my packet to Vermont Sept 4 and it was delivered by September 7. I am not aware of in the change of service center until I came across this discussion. I am so glad I was able to send the right time before the change! But as of today check is still not encashed and no Noa 1! I am having major anxiety! Any vermont filers?

 I filed I-751 last week for my spouse. The filing instruction had only two choices for USCIS locations to send the application to - Phoenix, AZ or Dallas, TX.  See here https://www.uscis.gov/i-751

I sent it to Phoenix, since I live in California.

 

But on this forum, I am seeing people discussing sending the application to one of the 5 USCIS service center - CA, Vermont, Nebraska etc.  I didn't see these in the I-751 filing instructions.

 

Can somebody explain to me, if I made a mistake in filing my application to the wrong address?

Based on what I have read here the phoenix and arizona is for those who sent their packet from sept 11 onwards. I guess to help with backlog

I sent my package to Vermont on 09/07 and it was delivered on 09/11. I called the USCIS because the location was changed after I sent it and I didn’t receive any update. They said to wait for 30 days.

I send it to CSC on September 11th, because I did not know that I could have sent it somewhere else. Oh no 😞

Okay i guess I’ll wait for a month too! Everyday I check my debit to see if they have encashed the check! I was just accepted for a new job to start on Nov. That’s why I’m so nervous.. So i hope I get the Noa anytime soon! And you guys too!!
