Waiting for a NOA2 from CSC for your I-129F?

[Daniel&Karen 0]

Congrats to Karen & Daniel, May filers who received NOA2 yesterday. Give them a big "zomg it's about freaking time" round of applause!

Oh, and here's the note from their timeline: "Took more than 7 months for CSC to send us an RFE for missing to fill in a N.A. besides the None under Family Name of Husband/Wife in form G325A of beneficiary."

Glad you're approved now, things should start moving a lot faster for you now.

Thanks Mox, it was such a long wait for us. CSC left our file in the dust, then gave us an RFE for missing that one single N.A.

Well I'm just glad you're past it now. You'll find DoS a lot easier to work with. Congrats again, I'm always happy to see someone approved who's been waiting so long. You really deserve this.

Maybe the website is down?? After such a roll of approvals it seems odd that there wasnt a single one yesterday.........

Oh and a question-

does anyone know whether the passport style pics for the medical and the Interview have to be NEW ? Or can I use the ones submitted with the I 129F for the Medical? Or if I get pics taken now can I use them for the Medical as well as the Interview???

Well..having just logged on and not having read any following responses, you would need new photos, at least that's what's required in Japan and what I've seen by posters from other countries. The Tokyo embassy even has a photo booth there since the size pics required are very difficult to find in Japan.

And since my puter froze up here at work yesterday...congrat's to all of the new approvals from the day before yesterday on! I got one congrats in and boom...dead computer

Sounds like you had a real jerk of an adjudicator to me. Probably the same guy that started sending RFE's for handwritten dates on photos.

Yes, must be. It depends on the luck, and we were just unlucky. Hope things will move faster after getting out from CSC.

Wow, that's just ridiculous. I have read and been told by the uscis (rfe people) that the petitioner and beneficiary undergo name check/security check/background checks BEFORE the file is adjucated so that would explain waiting 7 months just to be told to fill in a blank with n/a. It's a messed up process.

I called again yesterday since the officer I spoke to Tuesday never called back like she said she would (oh yeah you're all nice when i'm on the phone and then probably threw my number in the garbage ). The guy I got yesterday said "wait a minute, didn't you just call yesterday?" Me thinks to myself: "Wow, so you DO keep records of some kind organized and at your fingertips? Impressive." and explained how I called Tuesday to check on my file because in December I was told I could check back again in January.

I got the same answer that it's in name checks...no idea how long it's been there...no idea how much longer it'll be there...you can check back every 30-60 days, thank you. Umm WHAT???!!!

This is so crazy. I have never been arrested, have no traffic violations even, nothing. My fiance's record is just as spotless. I don't understand this. I'm so scared that they have me mixed up with someone else who DOES have a record or something.

Congratulations to Genet & Meseret, August CSC filers approved yesterday. Congrats to you both!!

I'm so sorry you have to go through this. I live in fear of it too, and one of the regulars in the Russian forum spent (if I remember correctly) over 4 months in name check. The hopefully good news is that this length of time in name check is rare. Most likely your fiance's name is similar to someone elses, and the computer kicked it out and said it needed a manual review. So what will happen is someone will manually review it, make sure your fiance is not this same person, and then approve it. Unfortunately this often takes time, and the FBI agent assigned to perform your check also has other duties, so it may not be his top priority. I wish the system worked better than that, but this is just how it works right now.

Be strong, hopefully you'll hear something soon.

regrading the RFE trick. how soon in the process should that be done? we have only filed in late DEC 07 and it has sat since the check was cashed on 3 Jan 08?

I wouldn't even consider it until you start seeing other December filers start receiving approvals. It's way too early to be calling right now.
