Stll waiting!

I finally got a touch! Yea! I hope it's good news that the NOA2 will be on it's way soon. I never seem to make it on the timeline lists even though I update my timeline. Is it because I never received the NOA1 hard copy? Although my I129f was mailed on 5/31/07, I consider myself a June filer since that's when it was received and the check was cashed.

Let's all hope we get good news soon!

August 6th may be a bit too early for the NOA2, but if that was the case, it would be good news for everyone.

Nothing new had appeared on the overwhelmingly informative USCIS "Case Status Online" site, so I called USCIS again. After the usual 30 minutes of phone-mail purgatory and the screening-questions from the arrogant associate, I explained that I had never received anything in the mail; the associate "escalated" me to an immigration officer. THIS officer told me information that conflicted with what the PREVIOUS officer had told me: that I would receive an acknowledgment in the mail 45 days after July 20 (when I had first called about it), and NOT 45 days after the CSC had received my package from the TSC (June 11). I was beyond anger. This second officer said that the usual wait is "4 to 6 months." I told him that if the CSC were so disorganized as to never send me a mailed acknowledgment, I didn't believe him. He responded with the usual "Sorry, sir."

I then contacted my Congressman's office. The aide stated that the USCIS is their -- and THE -- very worst agency with which to deal. USCIS has informed congressional offices that USCIS will no longer accept faxes from the congressional offices. USCIS can take two days or longer to respond to inquiries from congressional offices. I observed to the aide that it seemed that the tail was wagging the dog, and the aide agreed, saying, "It will literally take an act of Congress for anything to be done." He agreed with me that only one example of the convoluted process was my having been told to file at the TSC only for the package to be sent to the CSC, thus losing more days. He observed that the CSC is extremely backed up. He did say that FBI name-checks are a part of the hold-ups.

He will try to call the CSC to learn the status of my petition. He had no pretense that he would be able to pull strings or talk with anyone of genuine influence, but he said that we could at least learn what they tell him.

Does anyone have anything significant or meaningful to add? This is all beyond "maddening." -- TBoneTX

I can certainly validate your experience by referencing my own. This is what I wrote here a few pages back in case you missed it.

Well, here is a hard piece of fat to chew. I called the USCIS and talked to a lady there for a good 5 min and drilled her with questions from A-Z, even asking if it would speed things up if I went to Brasil and got my fiance pregnant. Anyway, with all the congestion with consolidating service centers and the 30,000 apps a month they are getting in, not to mention the spike in apps by those trying to beat the new fee increase, she said it would realisticly take 6 mos to get my NOA2 (approval). I about shot blood from my eyes hearing that. Then I reminded her I filed for the k1 in mid June and asked about their holiday schedule due to the tri-fecta holidays in the latter part of the year. She said that will have an effect for sure even at embassy's abroad with people traveling home for the holidays. Oh, I suspected such a thing and I was real happy hearing that.... So finally, I told her that I guess what your saying is that my fiance wont be getting her gyno exam anytime soon....

I'm shooting for our NOA2 approval between now and end of September. If I had to choose a guess date I would say August 31-Sept 7. I know my timeline says Sept 28th but I mailed my app on May 17th. So maybe they go by that date for processing???

Hello June filers,

First off I wish the best for everyone's process.

I am a little concerned that reading everyone elses timelines that it seems that your forms have been "touched" in the last month. As for mine, I got the NOA1 on 06/15/07, via checking it at the USCIS website. Apparently, it hasn't been touched since 06/20/07. That's about a month and a half since any activity. Should I be concerned of how slow my process is going?

It's is currently at the CSC.

I'm sorry for the question, and please excuse me this is my first post.

Don't worry. I haven't gotten a touch since 6/22. Probably when they filed it away until it's time to look at it. A lot of people don't get touches at all early on. I think I would be a bit more worried if I did get a touch early on IMO.

No, I would say don't worry. I've read from many other people that some people get "touches" and some people never get any at all and the notice magically appears in the mail one day. We all still have a ways to go. From what I understand the website of USCIS isn't exactly accurate. Some people I read their status is still "Pending" even after they have already been scheduled for the interview.
