In absolute shock right now.. Checked my emails before bed and... I129f was denied today after 50 days!! Hoping for the I130 approval soon, going to call tomorrow

 

I130 NOA1: 2/14/2019

I129f NOA1: 7/31/2019

I129f denial: 9/19/2019

 

egov.uscis is updated, my.uscis is not

You'll get there, just a little more patience. It's crazy how stressful and exhausting this process is! Good luck you are almost there!

Guys, please help! Our RFE letter says:

”Include duplicate copies if you are requesting consular notification.”

Does anyone knows what consular notification is/means?? 

We we got requested with the I-130A (which our lawyer never made us fill :/) so should we send one copy or 2 copies? 

Thanks for your input and help!

Did you get mail for both? Or you checked online?

We find out about both (the RFE of the i-130 and the approval of the i-129f through the case tracker app.

Hey guys! please help, we are freaking out...

For our I-130 our priority date was 9/14/2018

We got RFE on 9/12/2019

We had submitted I-129F with PD 8/28/2019, on the NOA1 we noticed my (beneficiary) birth year was incorrect, but we didn´t do anything as we though the I-129F would get denied.

Today they ACCEPTED our I-129F, what does this even mean?? we are seriously about to have a breakdown. 

Does anyone have any idea what might happen and what we might do??

Friend, 1800-375-5283

I memorized their number.  press 1 English, then keep pressing 2.

Don't enter your Lin number..  press 2

 

Eat their minds! Go for it!  Nebraska is really 🤬

Thanks!! I will try this!

Hey guys! Does anyone know if there is a phone number to call the Nebraska Processing Center directly? If there is, what's the number? If there is not... when I call the USCIS 1-800 number, what options do I have to enter to speak with an actual person? 

Thanks!

Today's case tracker search is brought to you by tons of coffee and being stuck in traffic 😉

Haven't searched a lot today yet, but saw some September 13th movement! (approvals and RFE)

(Which means my half-(okay, three quarters lol)-obsessed self will be keeping track of case tracker movement *a lot* over the course of this week and next, having a Sept 14th PD myself *fingercrossed*)

I know! there's been movement for cases with PD Sept 10-12. Seems like yesterday the approved a bunch of cases! we are Sept 14 as well!

You can always drag your feet at NVC stage if you feel like it's cutting it too close. CC usually takes 3-5 weeks after submitting your documents and paying the fees

Hey guys! what is CC? like the time it takes for the file to go to your local Consulate and get an appointment?

Checked case tracker earlier 🙈 saw that yesterday there were some approvals for Sept 11th and 12th cases 🙂

That's great news! Around what number?? Our PD is the same as yours 09/14/2018... I hope maybe next week they will start looking to our day, there are maaaaany cases from that day.

we are exactly at the same spot

We are exactly in the same boat with you guys here, we are past 11.5 months, but decided to send the I-129f anyway because we don't want to be stuck behind people that filed the I-130 much later than we did but are now filing the I-129f. We don't know if its really gonna help or not, we will just have to wait and see...

Just ran -610000 to -613500 on the case tracker — aaaaand saw a bunch of approvals and a couple of RFEs for September 4th (ranging from Aug 21st-26th)!!!

(I may or may not have gotten stupid excited about September having been touched!)

Hey everybody! this is M&W here! this is our first post, but we have been following this group chat for a while. 

This is our journey so far:

Wedding day: 06/15/2018

NOA1: 09/14/2018

NOA2: Still waiting...

We sent our I-129f last saturday... I know we are really far in the wait to submit the I-129f but it is really frustrating to see how many people that came after us are seemingly submitting that form and getting approved before us, so we just decided to go on and submit it instead of keep wondering "what if?".

I am from Ecuador and my USC spouse was born and raised in the States. We met while both of us where living abroad in Europe. We currently are living in Ecuador as we wait for my spousal visa to be ready so we both can move together to the States. 

When our case was received and we got our priority date, the wait times for processing where 6 to 8 months... now we are getting close to 12 months of waiting... obviously we didn't foresee this, which is probably happening to most of you guys here.

The good thing is we are together!! but my husband doesn't want to start applying for jobs in the States until we are at least approved by USCIS... luckily I work a free-lance type of job, but its becoming more and more difficult to get work as I am already detaching from my home country with the mindset of permanently moving "soon" you know what I mean? it's like I don't want to get engaged in commitments in my home country when I am already supposed to leave soon. This, also applies for apartment rental, selling my car, etc... It's just super frustrating having no certainty over our "near" future.

Yesterday I saw that they are finally starting with September 2018... so that gives us hope and something to look for. But I know that everything is taking long and now I am trying to get a hold of the idea that I won't be able to spend Christmas and New Year's with my husband in the States.

Well, that was some ranting for you all here... But we are all in the same boat so I know you get me. 

We'll keep you posted!
