OCTOBER FILERS

[Chris & Olya 0]

Its nice to see that there is a page for us October filers. Lets hope the backlog will clear out and that we will have the good fortune of having our petitions processed faster than expected because of staff possibly being increased at the service centers Anyways, its nice to know that there is group of us here with the same goal. Good Luck to everyone!

Well my Fiance received NoA1 Hardcopy in the mail yesterday!

On top f that processing Times for Frankfurt Consulate have gone down from 70 days to 55 and now to 48!!!!!!

So MAYBE we can still get married on May 17th?! NoA2 for my little boys birthday on 02/04 would be nice!

Go CSC!

Good luck to all of us and a speedy Journey so we can be reunited with our better halfs!

Hello, my I129F was sent to CSC on October 5th, so I thought I'd add my name to the list of October filers! Wish me luck and great patience...

NOA1 arrived quickly, it was mailed on October 11th and landed in my fiances mailbox on October 16th! Word is that CSC has added extra staff to deal with the backlog, so hopefully our waits won't be as long as some of the others before us that I've read on the forums... Have to stay positive, right?

Good luck everyone!

By the way, I can't figure out how to add the nifty timeline at the bottom of my posts like the rest of you, I assume that's an automatic signature or something? How do you do it?

If you go to my controls you can update your signature from there. There is no automatic population from the timeline. You have to manually enter the details into your signature.

My check was cashed and deciphered the receipt number.

When did a status check they indicated the petition was received on October 16th...However, it was received on October 4th at VSC?? Oh well, at least some sign of life....

Anyone else experienced that kind of delay?

Just the beginning....

Anyone else petitioning from North Carolina?

According to the USCIS website we have been touched on the 16th,18th and 19th of October.....Our Petition was received on the 10th and NoA 1 issued on the 12th.

I'd like to know why we're being touched that much.........good or bad sign?

Everytime I see a touch I worry about an RFE.....

I thought I may as well get this one started. I sent my I-129F package yesterday, October 1 to the VSC. Let's hope the timelines start getting a little quicker with USCIS.

We've received 3 touches this week too, after receiving our NOA1 on October 11th...I'm a bit worried about the possibility of an RFE, but what can you do? From everything I've read on these forums, the touches are pretty random - some people never get a single one, while others get lots. It doesn't appear to have any correlation to how quickly people's applications are adjudicated. So let's hope it's a good sign!

We got our NOA1 yesterday!! According to mail service it arrived in CSC on the 15th but receipt date was 18th. Never mind, this is already shorter than we expected. Hopefully the delay is solved or improved!

I don't have the NOA1 yet, but I did finally get the green card back from the postal service and it was stamped "USCIS received 10/12/07" even though, according to the USPS website, it was successfully delivered on the 9th. I'm almost afraid to check to see whether my check has cleared yet. If it hasn't, I will be more worried than if I don't check. If it has, well, all that means is I can obsessively check the USCIS website.

Good luck! I hope you get it one of these days!

Okay, our check cleared Friday. I don't have online banking so I'm going to have to go next door (to the bank) to get a printout of the back of the check before I can go on their site to find the NOA1, but I'm assuming for now that they have issued it. Our whole office is going out to lunch today for a combined birthday lunch for me and our secretary so I will probably do that tomorrow. For now, I'm just relieved that we are probably in the system.

When I told my mom about the three-day difference between the reciept date USCIS stamped on the return reciept card and the USPS website, she said "Oh, that's the federal government for you." She is a retired federal employee, too.
