Hi, Your case is so fast! Is your case DCF or a normal case? Thank you!

Hello, our case was filed via DCF through the US embassy in Seoul. Unfortunately, as of September 2019, the USCIS office at the Seoul embassy has shut down and are no longer accepting new cases.

Thanks for responding. Glad it worked out for you. Yes, unfortunately they closed office in Seoul last September. But according to USCIS site, not everyone is qualified for DCF, right? We sent our application to the lockbox in Chicago and was received by Sep 13. If we have it done earlier in August, we could have been able to send it with USCIS office in Seoul. Do you think it has any difference?

Both the petitioner and the beneficiary need to be living overseas to qualify for DCF. Because all of the USCIS offices have / are scheduled to close, DCF is no longer an option for people wishing to apply. Theoretically, if you would have been able to start your application before the Seoul office closed, the whole process would have probably taken a few months vs over a year+ via the normal process.

Got it. Wish I knew earlier. Blessings to your next journey.

*Notice about estimates: The estimates are based off averages of other members recent experiences
(documented in their timelines) for the same benefit/petition/application at the same filing location.
Individual results may vary as every case is not always 'average'. Past performance does not necessarily
predict future results. The 'as early as date' may change over time based on current reported processing
times from members. There have historically been cases where a benefit/petition/application processing
briefly slows down or stops and this can not be predicted. Use these dates as reference only and do not
rely on them for planning. As always you should check the USCIS processing times to see if your application
is past due.

** Not all cases are transfered
