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

[Dr. A ♥ O 203]

Sweet list! Crossing our fingers, toes, and eyes that the NOA2 comes before the end of this year!

wow, FIVE approvals down so far for the 24th, peoples! thinsgs are moving at California!

*does restrained little desk dance*

of course, the shortest NOA1 - NOA2 gap of the five was 133 days, so the averages aren't dropping massively yet, but isn't it nice to know things are still happening there, after the flood *ahem * of approvals last week! and if we take someone's speculation of the VJ numbers being roughly 10% of the whole, that's FIFTY approvals on the 24th

(yes, I know that's wild speculation, but let's be happy, huh? heaven knows we've been annoyed and sad for long enough )

I was approved technically yesterday and the number of days between NAO1 and NAO2 was 117 days.

Still have 6 days to finish up with May filers. Any bets???

If we haven't seen any by this hour, I am assuming that we aren't going to see any for today...until tomorrow perhaps when people update their timeline. I hope anyway.

You may be right but the night is not over yet. Remember several weeks ago someone received their approval at 10:00 PM. Anyway, just trying to be positive.

Cheer up! There have been 8 approvals today! I hope this continues everyday this week and next and the next...

yeah, I think it's always far too early to call, on the actual day in question... people might have not checked their emails (or their letterbox), or just not come in to tell us yet...

last check shows NINE on the 24th, by the way; using my fuzzy logic as outlined above, that's really ninety, so go CSC!!

[Jeraly 4]

I llike your fuzzy logic

I called USCIS yesterday (25th) and spoke with 2 very nice and helpful people. Nothing had been done to my case (I used the codes to check on an RFE and just stated that I knew others getting RFEs who had applied around the general time that I had and was wondering if that had happened to my case and my profile had just not yet been updated.). I am almost 100% sure that this morning my online case showed 9-25 as the date (due to the phone call) but now it says 9-26 which is today.

Has this happened to anybody else? Just wondering if it was my imagination or wishful thinking that somebody touched my case today, although it is kind of early based on everybody else's timeline.

Hi There, yes everytime we have called we got two touches. One the day we called and one the next day.

Sorry it doesn't mean your assigned to an officer yet but at least you know how it has been for us at least.

Good luck on a speedy approval

It's hard to tell, some touches are generated by calls and others are never touched regardless of the number of times they call. Our timelines are almost the same, we sent in our pkts the same day. I was going to try to call them on Friday saying something similar to you, (I'm still trying to be patient) so I'll be watching to see what happens with you. Good Luck!

Congratulations to all the recent approvals... and good luck.

Pekewl: I see our timelines are 1 day apart. I am tempted to call using the RFE, but logically I know its too soon. Should we just keep waiting? I know the approvals are coming about 120+----what does anybody else think about calling? Ramzis and Alane

ramzis51,

I don't want to rain on anyone's parade but I want to keep it real for everyone. As you all can see by my timeline it took about 142 days for our approval and I do know how tough the wait is...and by the looks of things that, unfortunately seems to be the norm now. Also I want you guys to know that when I spoke to an officer to confirm our approval on 09/24 she told me that it would be 30-45 working days before NVC received our case and not to bother calling...yeah right!!!...now that used to take about a week and now is supposedly up to 6-9 weeks!!!

I will let you guys know how accurate this info is as time passes and I have more news.

Scott

Ramzis51: I do understand your temptation about calling USCIS(I get it too) but at the same time I do agree with Scott in that the wait time has grown and/or is growing at a fairly significant rate for K1/K3. Hence, I am going to give myself a few more weeks before I call them. Since I am a K3 filer, I am personally thinking to call them late Oct to mid-November since thats when my I-130 will have passed 6 months. Having said that, I 'd also like to tell u and this is just from my sheer observation at VJ, K1 seems to get approved about a month or so faster than a similar time K3. Again, this is purely thru my observation and it could be incorrect but looking at other VJers K1 approval timelines, it seems to be the case.. Anyhow, so it may make more sense for you to call them a bit earlier than compared to my timeline.. say early to mid Oct. IMHO, I would say wait at least till the average number of K1 CSC approval days(as of recent) and then it maybe... again maybe more beneficial for you to call. Look at other K1 filers @ CSC who filed around your dates to see if their NOA2s are starting to trickle.. Thats a good bechmark for you. And if you really are the patient one then I guess wait a bit longer. I think the chances of a USCIS rep looking into your case little more closely increases when u someone has waited for an extended period of time... or atleast they are more sympathetic and may tell u more than they would to a recent filer... again this is just my opinion thru my past immigration dealings...

Hope this helps. Good Luck to all and congrats to all the recent approvals.

Regards.

Your words help----yes I AM the patient one---Ramzis is here only for 6 more days, then he is back to Russia until the K-1. I think I'm extra sensitive right now because we're going to be apart soon. But we shall overcome! Keep in touch Pekewl, Alane and Ramzis
