Received NOA2 yesterday, 26 June 2021! NOA 1 received 5 Nov 2020. Hope everyone else gets their responses soon!

Our NOA1 was Nov 2 (sent application on Oct 29) and we still haven´received our NOA2. Very long 239 days since then....😟

early november filers have not received noa2 yet, but the date for a inquiry is november 20...  and the processing time is changed from 8 months to 7.5.

Anyone in early Nov filers tried to reach USCIS yet? Any luck in talking to an actual representative?

We just sent an online inquiry and turns out it takes 30 days for them to respond. We are so tired of waiting.

I also sent an inquiry on June 24th. I got an automated reply saying: "Thank you for your request: USCIS will review and process request. Expect areply by July 16,2021." Very dissapointing. The dates that they show under processing time is a bullshit. I´m checking every day their approvings/RFEs for noa1 Nov 2 and yesterday they only processed 2 cases. There are 100 more to go.

I saw that too. Only handful of November 2nd cases. USCIS needs to seriously take this matter of K1 seriously as it is not a spouse visa.

If you pull their quarterly service wide form data current processing times for FY21 were 8 months in Q1, 8.1 months in Q2 with 21,106 outstanding cases at the end of March. 

 

"9) Processing times are defined as the number of months it took for an application, petition, or request to be processed from receipt to completion in a given time period. The number of months presented is the median which is the time it took to complete 50% of all the cases processed in the quarter."

 

If you use the Q1/Q2 processing times and base your estimates on that then I wouldn't expect November to reach 50% completion until at least the later end of July. 

As to why the USCIS processing times page doesn't reflect this, I don't know. But their service wide data charts reflect more accurately to what we are actually seeing real world.

I agree. We can only blame the government for this. I'm sure the workers are doing there best given the circumstances. Its Summer time and people want to go on vacation and spend time with there family. Unfortunately, we get the bad end of the stick. Only thing we can do is be patient.  

 

BTW - does anyone have a spread for November? like they had for September and October?

Really it just comes down to ease of access to transparent information. They have people processing these immigration applications until their eyes bleed and it's a thankless job. No one is meeting the person/team that adjudicated their petition and buying them a pack of beer for all the work they do. A lot of the frustration that gets directed at a underfunded, understaffed organization weighed down by red tape and the whims of immigraton policy could be resolved by having accurate information readily available on something that for most is a very emotionally charged part of their life.

Hiya,

 

Facebook has a November filers group and a guy on there does a spread every week. The group is called November 2020 K1 filers.
