Sounds about right, at least on what they are processing at the moment. After all, it's almost time for the "15th April" to appear on their official processing times for the K1.

Bare in mind, that most people in this thread are CSC petitions and, yes, CSC are still processing early April filers. If someone did get approved within a short amount of time, they were either lucky enough to get another service centre or they sent the I129F in so long after the I1330 that they were paired together and approved at the I130s pace. If that person was actually a CSC petition, they must be the only person since April who has not had to wait almost the full 6 months.

I was just relaying what I was told that is all I'm sorry if you don't like it or don't believe it. But it boils down to all we can do is wait, if people are going to get upset by the info then next time I will keep it to myself. We are all in the same boat here tired of waiting but it looks like that's all that can be done.

Chabo, we appreciate any news. So please feel free to share anything you hear :) Any insight into what USCIS is doing is better than the dark they leave us in. Those of us in this boat know that the 6 month "spiel" is actually correct at the moment, especially when you wade through the April filers thread :(

Please do share any news you get. Everyone is frustrated, but it is good that we share what communications we get from USCIS.

Hopefully my wife will be here by Christmas. Does any one know what the estimated time for my paperwork to get to the embassy is?
