Please feel free to move this somewhere else within the forums if this is not the suitable place for it. 🙂

My question is: What is going on with the estimated processing times for Vermont for I-129F? I see that the NOA1 to NOA2 timeframe is off.  https://www.visajourney.com/content/times/

Have there been any changes as to which service centers process the K1 petitions that I'm not aware of?

 

Thank you very much!

27 NOV 2019 - I-129F mailed to Dallas, TX Lockbox

02 DEC 2019 - NOA1

23 MAR 2020 - NOA2

California service center initially gets 100% of i129fs.   Vermont only gets the most difficult ones transferred to them from California

Oh that makes sense why I couldn't see anyone with Vermont Service Center tagged. Are they being sorted further after that? I tried to search up and down on the forums and wasn't able to find much. Could be user error over here. 😅

Some people mark Texas but that is in error.  As mentioned before,  Vermont gets the most difficult and that might consist of a handful
