Congrats! It's great to hear that things are moving forward with Frankfurt applications. Ours should also be due any day now. 

I'm just wondering, how did they send the approval (DHL, Einschreiben, regular letter)? 

Again, congrats and thanks for the update!

Haven't told you congrats yet, but congrats! I guess my hunch for your timeline was right in the other thread. I think we will probably get ours by the end of next week.

I have one question. I have realized that spouses from Germany get approval faster at Texas service centre. It was before January approvals going and suddenly it jumped to March and April approvals and all are from Germany. So my question is do they see a country while taking a case under process?? Or it is just a coincidence.

DCF petitions do not get processed stateside.

Thanks for reply.. So yesterday there was approval from February 2nd. Mine PD is 25th Feb. Hope to hear anything soon in this month or next. As Texas is moving very fast compared to other service centres.

Where did you file the petition?  DCF is filed at the consulate at the country of eligibility not the US lockbox.

The latest approval at Texas service centre shows 28th January. (Without DCF).. I didn't filed at Consulate. I filed at US lockbox.. Still I can say that Texas moving faster.

You are posting in the DCF section.  Case inquiry Date for TSC is October 01, 2018.   Country of chargeability does not mean much at the USCIS stage.  USCIS stage is more about the petitioner not the beneficiary.  If some people around your date are getting approvals then you should be seeing something soon too.

I have seen many profiles here where they mention DCF i130 and still they have NVC stage...

If you are looking at the timelines, like ours, you will see that there should be be no NVC dates but the NVC Blue Box is completed since it is necessary to move to the Case Complete which indicates the Consulate is now processing the petition.

 

DCF by definition is only processed by at a Consulate and never is touched by a stateside office.  Service Centers and NVC are stateside.

 

Have you taken the time to read the guides here?  Lots of good information there.
