Congratulations Sophia!! very cool info. Maybe this will help the rest of you May filers.

We can thank the really nice lady who told me to call back and plug in those #'s. She was very surprised I had not heard anything... and her question and tone "oh, so you filed before July???" that was strange she seemed concerned and thats when she said call back.

APPROVED!!!!! The young lady who place me on hold came back to tell me she would transfer me to an officer. I spoke to the officer who ASKED for my case # and put me on hold again. She came back to verify my address and tell me I should be receiving something in the mail... I was approved on Oct. 15th. I told her I rec'd no email she said they were really busy. That must have been the reason for the touch on Oct. 16!!!

MIRLA YOU MUST CALL AND IT SEEMS THE INSTRUCTIONS I REC'D ABOUT CALLING FOR A REFERRAL WORKED BETTER THEN THE RFE... I GOT AN OFFICER ON THE LINE.

Congratulations :dance::dance:

I know!!!!!!! We talked before all this action happened here and we could hardly talk, he was working at the firehouse cooking lunch for all the rest starving firefighters....hahaha!!!! I called again but he didn't answer so I just texted him giving him these new prompts in case the RFE don't work!!!! Hopefully he will check his TM and he doesn't have any fires after lunch otherwise that will be another hour of waiting!!!!!

Zee, what happens now? How do I find out the NVC received and sent dates? What # do I call or web?

Wait a couple of days and then call NVC to see if they have your petition: (603) 334-0700, 1 5. They will ask for info on the petitioner and benefiary and your case number. They can tell you when they received the petiton and when it will be sent to the embassy and they will give you your new case number.

Good luck Sophia!!!

Bill, did you do any stats on CSC. We still have May filers waiting for approval also. Thanks

Sorry. I did not realize you were looking for CSC statistics. I added them below.

I will update the VSC summary stats on Monday, but things have not changed much since the last one.

In the meantime, here is an interim partial report:

VSC

There were 54 VJ VSC K1 petitions filed during May. As of now, 26 of them are still open. For the past 7 days VSC has averaged .43 VJ K1 approvals per day.

Assuming that 10% of the open May petitions are dead, at the current pace it will take approximately 54 days to complete May.

CSC/NSC/TSC

There were 150 VJ K1 petitions filed during May. As of now, 83 of them are still open. For the past 7 days CSC has averaged 3.71 VJ K1 approvals per day.

Assuming that 10% of the open May petitions are dead, at the current pace it will take approximately 20 days to complete May.

Open petitions from months prior to May are considered to be of primary importance but are assumed to be minimal and are not reflected in interim report calculations.

Disclaimer: All statistics are compiled from VJ sources and are done so in a straight forward and consistent manner solely in an effort to help members obtain a clear picture of VSC progress or lack thereof. The author is not responsible for any depression, elation, discouragement, encouragement, jubilation, anger, pom pom waving or self flagellation caused by these statistics. Members who do not wish to experience any of the aforementioned emotions and/or activities as well as any other human emotions and/or activities are encouraged to utilize the appropriate reality denial technique as recommended by their mental health professional.

Yes, that is strange. Maybe she thought you were a Cuban/Iraqi couple applying to work in the US. :whistle:

His vaca is really short - only like 5 days. Persoanlly, I'd wait until he returns. Cos if it doesn't work for him, he'll only be more depressed. Just MHO, of course.

If he can get email he is probably checking here anyway. But in any case, maybe it would be a good idea to wait until the process works for someone else also. No sense getting him all worked up if this turns out to be a one time thing.
