July 29th?! They are almost on the August people and my PD is July 15th! How does this make any sense? What's the point of the PD? My last update was January 6, nearly a month ago now. It's one thing for a service center to have really long wait times, but it's another to see them servicing other applications that came in weeks AFTER yours, when supposedly they "respect the order."

 

Two different kinds of frustration, but frustration none the less. The waiting game is the worst! 😩😩 At least it's Friday! 

July 8 PD Texas.....still waiting 😞

Got this a couple of weeks ago. Did research online and on this board and it means pretty much......nothing?

Yes.... ours hasn’t changed since September either.... and you’re right, those dates really don’t mean anything it seems, some people say it’s when your file was last looked at, others it seems to coincide with the when they last logged in. Who knows 🤷🏼‍♀️ But it’s hard seeing everyone pass us now

I'm about to blow another $500 on filing I-129F as I really need to be in the US in July/August. I think us Nebraska lot will get NOA2 in July as it looks like they're processing I-130s that were received in February 2019. I'm going to stop getting my hopes up until June/July as I'm expecting absolutely nothing until then.

A friend of mine just got his approved....obviously with the Texas office. 🙄

You don’t have to pay for the i129f if you’ve got a pending i130. Just put in a copy of your i130 noa1 and it’s free. We applied in August for that too and we’ve not had any movement on either so unless we hear from that by April I don’t think it’s working anymore.

We need to be there by July / August too and the longer it’s taking the less hope I have of it being possible.

Very interesting...Is there any chance you have a link to a government website that says there is no further cost?

 

I think I'm going to go anyway, but it will mean I have to leave after 90-days. A huge nuisance as I really need to start work as soon as my wife goes back to University in September.

I don't know what a B2 visa is but, yep, I can travel on my ESTA. I was hoping to be established in the US by July/August: apartment locked down, health insurance, job etc. I'll have to leave after 90-days with my ESTA, and will be living in limbo in Mexico or Colombia until I'm cleared to work in the States. It's something I'm now planning for, and it's manageable, but it's going to be a costly pain due to this absurdly, needlessly, drawn-out bureaucratic process.
