I’m pretty sure our case isn’t DCF because I don’t even know what that means. 
But thank you anyway! 😎✌️

You knew what it meant when you filled out your VisaJourney profile....

No I did not! I didn’t even notice the (DCF). 
And if you’re trying to be so smart why do you school me on what DCF stands for! 🙄

DCF is a I-130 that is filed directly at the Consulate overseas where both spouses live overseas.  It skips the USCIS and NVC all together.  Therefore the visa bulletin doesn't apply to those cases.  3 years ago ours took 103 days.  The rules have tightened up a bit and now an "exceptional circumstance" is needed.  But they are still way faster than a stateside filing.  DCF is a very very small percentage of all I-130s.

Interesting. And weird too because I filed the

I-130 from California and it was processed through the USCIS. 

So now I’m a little baffled.

That was my mistake Paul & Mary. 
I chose the wrong option from the drop down window. I just saw the CR-1 and didn’t even notice the DCF

Thanks for pointing it out to me.
