Waiting for a NOA2 from VSC for your I-129F?

[Bob & Kim 0]

I bet there will be a whole flood of NOA2s. Consider this...maybe VSC is not updating the website or sending out the NOA2 notices. Maybe they have already been processed but they are lagging behind in getting the word out. Stay optomistic...I bet it's coming soon for all you VSC filers! Who knows what's going on.

It took us 142 days from the say we mailed it to be approved. We were approved Monday 10/08 from CSC.

I can see being optimistic if you are a CSC, TSC, or NSC filer, but not VSC filers. As I said in a previous post:

"A friend of mine told me today that his lawyer said that the VSC does not expect to get to any until at or after the 6 month point because of other "priorities." You guys better keep writing elected officials, USCIS, the ombudsman, etc...it is a hell of a lot more productive than coming on here and making excuses for them or being patient. Don't be patient, act now before we all get abused by them more."

By the way, I checked with the NVC and they confirmed there is nothing from VSC sent to them and VSC is not having system update problems as occurred at CSC a few times.

Maybe all of us need to be writing the representatives in Saint Albans instead of our own?

Sorry it my words got twisted by others, but I would never advise anyone to lie during this process. Have him be honest, but not VOLUNTEER any additional info that would make him look risky. Good luck!

Steph, no one is twisting your words. It just appeared that you had said that the best option was to lie. Which is never the best option. Saying that you are there to see friends and family isn't exactly the truth. The truth would be to say, 'I am here to see my fiancee'

I apologise if I misread what you said.

They seem to only turn people away if they have been on lots of visits within a short period of time. If you have enough evidence to prove that you are going home, it's usually ok.

But on the other hand, I suppose it depends on who you get on the day. No-one is guaranteed to get in anyway.

Never said to lie. As I stated earlier, I don't advise you do this. Maybe I should have used a different word then "friends". A mistake on my part. Replace "friends" with "fiance".

I am calling a lawyer today to look into what can be done if anything.

That class-action suit is starting to look real attractive now...

Anyone who can at least find out about it...maybe we'll actually get somewhere?

I just left him a message. I will let everyone know what I find out, if anything.

HE WAS ABSOLUTELY NO HELP!!!!!!!!!!!! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

He told me that we would had a better chance if we got married first. All the lawyers I previously spoke to said the opposite!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

He said the visa experience goes faster if the couple are already married. That isn't very helpful to me now, true or not. He said to check with the immigration website for processing times (Big help). Basically, he was no help. He said they are backlogged now which we already knew. He said it could change at any point and that I was almost there. yeah, thanks. Oh, and he said the system is broken. Big shocker. I was hoping I would find out something new, but I didn't.

What if we flood the phone lines with the rfe trick? if they get a couple of thousand calls in a day from disgruntled K1/K3 petitioners all asking the same thing "what the hell is the holdup" something has to get back to somebody because the calls are all recorded for "quality control purposes" i am about to book a flight to vermont and walk in the front door! I dont care about my case because I am a Sept filer and have a ways to go, but if they dont get all you other guys cleared out then I never move up!

hi i am new to this forum and am also a june filer. my fiance is coming in to visit for a couple months this weekend and i had a question maybe someone can answer. we are both pretty nervous about him getting past immigration since i have already filed the visa. the reason why he is coming is we just had a baby in august and he has yet to meet her!! does anyone know if mentioning this to the officer can hurt or help getting past? should he just keep his mouth shut about it?

Please don´t lie to them. It could make it worse. Answer what they ask and be honest. Take some proof with you that you have the intention to go back to your country. Good luck

Also, they know that u r on a k1 visa. It's in the computer system and this is known by the immigration officer.

Actually, i'm not sure that they do know that unless you have told them on a previous visit

THey do know it. My fiance came through JFK this summer and the immigration lady knew about his k1 before he even mentioned it. I believe when they cash in ur money, the names get put on the computer.

You are right, they do know, that is why you shouldn't lie. You should be casual and say you are visiting friends and family and leave it at that. If you give them reason to believe that you won't be getting on a plane back they could turn you away. My fiance got stopped-believe me.

steph, are you saying your fiancee got turned back??

No, but he got pulled aside. They asked him a lot of questions and put his info into their computer system. He told them the complete truth though so they let him in the country with a warning. He was traveling on a tourist visa at the time and he said he was coming into the country to visit his fiance and they had a problem with that. If you have applied for a fiance visa and say you are visiting your fiance then that is fine. At the time we hadn't applied yet and they were upset that he was using a tourist visa for the wrong reasons.
