Usually there would be late updates after they open up after the weekend, so better to do the scanning after 2.00 am PST for the data to come in and settle, you can try later. Usually there would be updates for example 1/17 but also there will be late updates which will come as 1/18

I scanned for Saturday 1/14 & Tuesday 1/17 but it said "0 updates." I'll wait a bit more and try again then.

For my fellow December 2021 Filers, 

Still nothing significant to report ... 2 denials, 1 RFE and otherwise basically untouched

 

For the rest of the 2021 date range, 
Total (previously untouched) cases opened :    597
So overall not a bad week ... down a little from last week but remember Monday was a holiday

 

Main focus appears to be End of October 2021 and early November 2021
Approval vrs denials remains very good ...
there does appear to be an increase in RFEs but overall good

 

Week    Was:    Now:    Delta:    Approved:    Denied:    RFE:
10/01    128     100      28                16                0            12

Now that it looks like December cases will start opening this week (or maybe next), I will start posting on Tues and Friday updates.

The burndown graph will be based on Friday from the week before (so be sure to pay attention to the date).

 

Will also post the December case graphic (in December Groups) once activity starts.
As for Dec Case Activity: 5 "Termination Notices" Sent (K3 Visas), one "Withdrawal", and one "Expedite Denied".

Hopefully they start into us by Friday and ramp up quickly.

So far (Friday to Tuesday) 82 unopened cases started

Hi all! Sorry, I've had trouble scanning and haven't had time to look into it (also just started a new job and I'm not very techy so it takes me time to understand :(((). The Facebook group for November filers post daily scanning updates though. I encourage everyone to check the group and mw & rg k1's scans here!

If my receipt date is 11/29/21 am I looking at week 11/26 or 12/3? Does that mean I need to follow both December and November topics?

[Anna Hessler 119]

 

Heres what I've got for November for the week of the 16th. Closed Monday, MLK Day.

Sorry, I cropped this and didnt realize it. Ignore the totals, thats for the whole week and includes July-November. Columns are approved, denied and RFE. 

 

235 total November cases for this week.

Thank you Anna for that clarification. Not sure if that answers which week I'm supposed to view if my receipt date is 11/29/21? Based on the graph provided by MW seems that week dates are based on Fridays. Just trying to figure out which grouping week to keep a look out for 11/26 or 12/3. Do you know which one?

Visajourney doesn’t allow sharing links so I’ll DM you the group’s link.

@serret would you mind sharing how you do the scans? I'd like to try doing daily scans
