Based on recent movement, the magic number seems to be about 80%. Also, note that there is NO CSC/TSC/NSC distinction for the K1 when monitoring NOA2s; some people are ignoring valid data in their results.

Thanks for the information. I have not had any touches yet either. I am at the beginning of January that I received my NOA1. I have not heard anything as of yet. Just wanted to tell everyone to hang in there. We all should be hearing something very soon.

Ok, so my prediction for the 17th was wrong. But this is our week; WE WILL, SEE JANUARY APPROVALS THIS WEEK.

I sure hope you're right, the wait is killing me!

Can you show me where to get those percentages from? I would like to update this thread daily with percentages. To give us some kind of light at the end of the tunnel, because now I only see nothing.

Either use FWAguy's online data or make a spreadsheet I have a spreadsheet i use which I can send you if you want to start obsessively checking

Mine is Jan 03 and I check obsessively. Should be happening soon. I would think that there would be fewer in December due to Holidays and all. We will see.

My I-129 arrived in Vermont on January 8 and still nothing. I called today and they told me to just keep on waiting and that they are processing cases from September. What should I do? After it gets approved up here it will be another 2-3 years for the Visa to get approved in the Dominican Republic. I can't WAIT

Whoaaaaa a Jan. VSC filer still waiting for NOA2!!!!!??????

I did a search for records using the following criteria

Search result for
Visa Type : [K1], Service Center : [All], Beneficiaries Country : [All], Consulate/Embassy : [All], I129F NOA 1 After 2006-12-01, I129F NOA 1 Before 2006-12-31, Local Office : [All]

I come up with 96 total records with 76 of them having NOA2. If my math is right I come up with 78% Approved for December. That is all Service Centers.

For CSC I got 52 total and 37 with NOA2 which I believe is 71% complete. So that would mean we need 5 more approved to reach the magic 80%. Soon January fliers will have their turn.

Of course we have no idea the real numbers but I think this site is giving a good estimation.

Man this sucks. Too bad their isn't an expedited service, I am willing to pay 20 fold of the I129F fee. CSC should really look into that, instead of raising taxes, charge a hefty expedited service fee......they would make a killing. Which VJ member wouldnt pay that expedited fee to get their loved one here faster?????

Anyhow, just a dream

ATTENTION!!!!!!!!!!!

A December 27th filer just received NOA2 from CSC!!!....Us, January filers are unofficialy 5 days away from seeing our first Jan. NOA2 at CSC!!!!!!!!!!!!!

WOOHOO!!!!! BRING IT ON!!!!

They should have finished working for the rest of December filers..

any news? any news?

You would pay $3400 to shave off a few weeks from the approval of your I129f??????

Of course one problem with CSC charging for an expedited service is that Vermont already expedites their service for no extra charge. And then a second problem would be that just because you have money and I don't you would get to skip ahead in line before me and make my wait a littlle longer. How do you think THAT would go over with the public? Remember, I pay taxes too.

But hey, its nice to dream...

This is not yet our week.. Hehehe..

Julie

week is not over yet

There has been lull in Dec movement this week; I will show you tomorrow.

Part of this is caused by an under-estimation of Dec cases. Even in mid March there are still new Dec cases trickling into the VJ records. Whenever this happens, it sometimes manifests as a stall (or even a minor decrease) in the progress counts here.

Yeah, I noticed the lull too and I suspected that there were more December filers out there than were reported.

BTW fukarse, what's stake in all this? Are you involved with someone overseas?...

CSC December K1's - 41/56 = 73%
All K1's - 85/105 = 81% (Rounded up)

Today I saw an Approval for a 1st NOA (December 28th). It was approved March 3rd but just updated here today. Meaning it was not updated for a while. I think we should see January's starting any day now. The moment I get mine I am updating here because it is frustrating when people wait for two weeks. I know it's a courtesy that we all do this but even I have my days of frustration.

Any January CSC touches?


Wissooner,
Yes I would definately pay to speed up this process. I would save my hair, stress is getting to me You're right, doesnt hurt to dream.

Any January CSC touches?

Good question I was just about to ask.

I don't think they now offer, nor will they offer, expedited fiance petitions. There are fees you can pay for other classes (like the I-129, mainly in the employment realm). But, for the reasons you point out here, there are a lot of concerns in using the expedited services in the family-based arena. Easier to justify for economic reasons and employment. Paying for family is distasteful precisely because it would create a class-based system of family unification and creation. Not a lot of good P.R. comes out of that, as you rightfully say. But if I missed mention of that in the proposal, then I'm wrong.

I am still waiting to hear from VSC. I filed in early January...So...they are not any faster...Then I have the long wait of 2-3 years to get an interview....

I filed in December, and no touches yet from Cali... as soon as I see something or get my NOA2, I'll let you guys know since I'll be wrapping up the December cases pretty much.

is the noah 1 the same as the I-797,thanks Paul

I dont know man, let one of the wise ones tell you....I sent my NOA1 to my fiance. Dont remember if that's what it is called.

Yes, the I-797 is your NOA for the petition you filed. You'll get a second one once it's been approved and right before it's sent to NVC.

Thanks, you're right. You have a 12/29/06 NOA1. You're one of the last Dec. filers....we are counting on you!

Yeah.. Thank you sooo much.. The week is almost over and no touches yet for Jan filers.. Methinks that they will devour the whole month of March for December filers..

I was hoping some of us would get our NOA2 's this week, but it doesn't seem like there was much activity this week. Surely some of us will get approved soon

Likewise.. CSC has been idle for how many days now.. Lazy, eh?! But base on your timeline, your NOA2 will come at any time soon..

I'm helping my sister and her fiance with this process and I was wondering why we were told to send the I-129F package to Nebraska and they forwarded it to California? Any ideas? Did I miss something?

Nebraska is the service center that petitions from the state the petitioner is from, but Nebraska no longer processes K1s so they all get forwarded to Cali.

We got a 12-29 with an NOA2 of 03-22-2007!!!!!!!

I am an 01-03 and I will be happy to see ANY January fliers this week. Just to know January is starting is enough for me!!!

So close it i killing me!!!

WOW, hook me up with a link to see that 12/29/06 receive that NOA2. January, our week starts tomorrow!!! HOPEFULLY

Stereodevil :: Woot woot!?!?

We're getting all excited now..

Click Here

I just bookmarked this after I chose the options. This is CSC listed. If you only see like 30 rows choose "Select # of Rows to display" and choose 200. Now the NOA1's should be in descending order. So I scroll down till I see something in the NOA2 field.

ALL Service Centers December Completed - 87/107 = 81%
CSC Completed - 42/57 = 73%

Since March 22nd
Total overall number for all service centers has increased by 2
Total increase for CSC was one added and one approved, leaving us still at 73%

The reason for the lull is unknown. My theory was that the number of December filers was low due to holidays and they are using it to play catch up. This would sound reasonable but who knows.

I'm certainly interested in any news about K1 progress at the CSC.

George

No problem I am happy to input anything I can. This is my second time around on a K1 so I try to give what I know.

Good news, our first January CSC filer has received their NOA2 yesterday....LET THE GAMES BEGIN!!

What was their NOA1 date? I don't see it on timeline yet that's why I'm curious.

Check out this post http://www.visajourney.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=61035

The filer, never did a timeline....that is why we haven't seen his noa2 on the timeline.

Ok cool. January 6th. These things should start picking up this week. I expect a lot of movement in this Topic. Hahahahahah

I saw this too. I am way too excited for us. It is now our time to celebrate NOA2's.

Yep, going to be alot of celebrating real soon.

WOOOHOOOO, NOA2 on the way, got an email this morning!!!

Yay! I am so excited to see January filers getting their NOA2's. We are late Jan filers and I am already anticipating some touches soon. I need to calm down, I think:)

I didnt receive any touches; Good luck everyone!
