Hi all,

Yesterday i got my nvc case number and aos bill together, my husband is gathering documents and certified copy of marriage certificate and police clearance from previous city( in which lived after reaching age 16) is pending.

ROZA, I saw your timeline, pretty impressive ! BTW, do you know when your NVC case# assigned exactly ? Also, I saw that you received AOS fee bill yesterday. Can you please write in detail with the timeline since I-130 approval ?

Thanks and appreciated.

PCC from passport office is also needed. It is very easy, fill the form, pay Rs.300 and get it on the same day. At least, it happend to me, so I hope you can also do that.

thanks Ms. Z

thats the only one I could find too..but i thought there was a different one

when I ckick on thsi one it basically says that the USCIS will take 9-10 months to process the family visa.... not what I want to send..haha

"May take" -- but since they are clearly processing I-130s filed recently they might want to explain to anyone with an October receipt date (or earlier) why this is the case. They should NOT be working on a case filed after if they are allegedly doing them in order. Unless a case is expedited, it shouldn't be processed except for when all previous cases have been dealt with in some manner -- processed and moved on or an RFE is put into place and the case waits for the petitioner to act.

They are clearly not using the receipt date. At best, they're using the NOA date. And even then, it isn't right!!

LOL , it was new to me too. I am little veteran in NVC now

Your NOA2 hard copy will arrive today. Don't call NVC operator unless otherwise required. Just dial that 603#, press so many 1's until to enter your I-130 receipt#. Then hear the message. To get 603# is little difficult, but if you do redial 3 to 10 times at the same time, it will be connected

My 2 cents...

The ombudsman's transcript is interesting. It says the date is for receipting, not processing. But USCIS clearly states that these are the dates they are just comleting, not processing. (Per http://www.uscis.gov/portal/site/uscis/men...0000ecd190aRCRD )

So I don't find the ombudsman's report to be credible. Further, he's a watchdog, not USCIS. What he says is not in fact, fact.

I don't think quoting him gets us anywhere.

Q&As Discussed by CIS Ombudsman Based on E-mails Received

1. FIFO Policy? - Is USCIS following the “First In First Out” policy in receipting applications? Many people have commented that their application arrived at USCIS specifically on July 2 or 3, but that they still do not have a receipt notice. Can you please explain why that may be? How can someone know if his case was not lost?

Response: We understand that USCIS’ policy still is to work cases on a first in first out basis. However, they use the first in first out policy by application type. For example, all of the I-485s are grouped together.

While he is only a watch dog his reports are based off of responses provided from USCIS , the way I see his comment he kind of jumped off of the receipting question and and stated USCIS' processing procedures in general. And it looks like USCIS took that information off of the website so atleast this is information being seen on a government website and they would have to assume some responsibility for what they post. Either way this is the only thing that seems to address this. If we based our information off what was posted on the USCIS website that would mean we are all crazy in thinking that they have any FIFO order. So pretty much no one can say that things are unfair because they never mention anywere else that they use the FIFO system.
