Good morning,

I’m just curious where you get this data from, with application numbers, etc.? 
Thank you!

Yes, from USCIS receipt number. I get my data from the CaseTracker app, scanning 500 cases at a time and filtering out K1s. Other people have custom scripts to get this info straight from USCIS website.

Ola @Bh_sarah,

 

My receipt is in the 52300's.  Should I be expecting an update any day now?  Obrigado!

Looks like almost 50% of your 300 range has been approved since late March, so hopefully yes!

Hi, so your range is 52000 just for reference. Ranges are groups of 500 receipt numbers (not all are K1s, but we filter them out), so your range is 52000 because your receipt number is between 52000 and 52499. Your range has 166 K1 cases in total, and so far has had 50 approvals, 27 cases waiting for an approval after a request for evidence, 9 withdrawals, and 64 still untouched cases. So 60% is still pending an approval. You can check it here on my spreadsheet.

No one can tell you when you will get your approval because USCIS don't really work in a logical order. But they're working heavily on February so far, but specially the first two weeks. They're moving to the 3rd and 4th week slowly. Could be this week or next week. Really any day now! But not 100% sure because there's no order.

Hope it helped!!

i think it's your week finally. 😉

[Michael&Miguel 12]

Hello all! Was hoping for an approval today and got the RFE news instead. 😑 Anyone here in Feb Group gotten an RFE yet? How long did it take to arrive and have you received a response yet? Feeling really down today as I did not see this coming at all. Hope its something easy and simple. Wishing everyone else lots of luck! 

[Bh_sarah 942]

Hi, all! Not sure if I’m going to scan the groups today. As you know I scan it manually but I check some activity throughout the day and today I only saw 5 RFEs, no approval  It might be some system delay or they really didn’t work much today. I’ll wait for the script numbers to prove me wrong!

I think it’s about a week to get it in the mail and then they should update your case with an RFER as soon as they get it. When it comes to a decision after a RFER, it varies a lot. No way to know. Some people get answers in 2 weeks, others in months. Let us know what they are asking you for!

[SailAway 4]

I got my approval and notice in the mail!
Is there another group we join after this one? I'm hoping the NVC will send the information to our American address (always been the same) as we have moved from the previous address in Japan (beneficiary's old address, new address is in another county).....

If your approval was in April, then find the group named APRIL 2023 K1 to NOA2 to NVC to EMBASSY

[Bh_sarah 942]

Sorry, not going to update the spreadsheet again today because there has been literally ZERO updates today. And this issue seems exclusive to California since other service centres are working normally as far as I can scan them. Thought they would fix that today, but nah. Infuriating
