BrianElla, there was a problem at CSC and a person lost several petitions including ours. I posted about this here a while ago:

Did you ring them up? Your NOA1 notice date is right after mine, so you should be getting assigned as well.
kits_24_faith
If I don't hear anything about my case I plan to call after August 12..that is the day that I'll turn to 4 months.. What should I say? I'm kinda hesitant to say that filers after me have been approved cause they might ask for proof which I don't have any of you alls receipt number.. hehehe it's private ofcourse.. there are a few filers here that have NOA1s of April 12.. it seems like that date is not goind anywhere.. everyone before and after that date are getting approved..

I think you should tell them just that. Tell them they are processing petitions out of order. Ask if some people are getting extra favors. Ask them to give you a reason why others are getting preference over your case. You don't have to give them someone else's case number, just tel them you belong to a community of K-1 filers and many of them with dates far after your have been approved. And don't let them give you the "we are only processing dates in January" line. I mean don't be rude an obnoxious about it, but be tough. This is your case, you spent money on it, and you have the right to know. If your unlucky and get one of the nasty operators and they are of no help then ask to speak to a supervisor. Remember to be calm about it. Tell them you are not trying to cause problems but you fell you have the right to know why this is happening.

You can use what I wrote in my letter before.

Say:

I know you say that all cases are processed in order they are received but Fact: there has been many people now with later NOA1 dates than mine that have been approved.

So the only explanation to this is.

My case has already been approved and I just haven't received my email update.
You are processing applications in an unorganized and out of oder fashion.
You are giving special favors to some petitioners. <-----(we know this isn't true but they don't like to hear that)

If you are going to wait until the 12th to call I think 7you should write them a letter in the meantime. use this email address. it is the one used if you feel you have been approved but haven't received a notice yet. i will again include my letter i wrote to the also
feel free to use it if you want to.

To: CSC.NoNotice@DHS.Gov


I have received several touches, but no notice. I
have seen also several other people receive their
NOA2's who have dates after my own receipt date.

The USCIS assured me that they process the
applications in order they are received. If this is
true then I must have been approved already. Since i
have indeed seen many petitioners with later receipt
dates than my own being approved. I have even seen
one with a receipt date of June 20th approved. That
is over 2 month later than my own receipt date. The
only other explanation is that the USCIS process the
petitions out of order or they give special treatment
to some petitioners.

please let me know which of these are true.

1. The CSC is processing petitions out of order.
2. Some petitioners are given special treatments.
3. My petition has already been approved but due to
the system problems at the CSC I have not yet received
a notice.

One of these has to be accurate.

thanks

thank you so much and if you don't mind can i use the email you wrote? would the same person read it though? By the way, how did you manage to find the correct email to write to? Thank you so much and I'll do this tonight when I get home.. I'm at work.. heheh

They never replied at all but My petition was approved a week later.....Because of the left? I don't know but heya its worth a try.

I found he email on the USCIS website. When they were having those troubles with all the Notices not being sent that is the email the gave to write to. Good luck

Wioombeen

P.S. you might want to also tell them that your case has been touched more that Debbie was when she spent some time in Dallas. Joke but hmm Maybe you can say that haha.

Also yes of course use that email. everyone use it if you want to.

Just hit day 100... :sigh: no touches.. nothing

NOA1 of April 11 here, and still no NOA2! sad.gif

I tried using the RFE trick this morning before I left for work, but of course CSC wasn't open yet so I got transfered to the general info line where I spoke with a most unhelpful woman named Tabitha. I told her about my NOA1 date and how I knew that others with dates later than mine had already received their NOA2s... I told her it was my understanding that all cases are processed in the order in which they are received -- to which she interupted me and said that is not at all always the case. She went on about how there are often special circumstances and bla bla bla. I ended up just hanging up because she wouldn't even look to see if she could find out anything about our application.

Fast forward to an hour ago... I checked my status online once again - still no touches, and all it says is case pending. So I tried the RFE trick again and actually got to speak with a nice lady at CSC who told me our case is currently with an officer! smile.gif

Is it just me or has anyone of us have noticed that April 12 NOA1 are stuck!? I mean before the 12th and after 12th they are all gettting assigne, touched, and approved... what's up?


There are still many 9th, 10th, and 11th filers yet to be processed. The 12th hasn't come up yet probably because the dates before it aren't complete, including many on the 9th. The 10th has 2 of 7 CSC/TSC/NSC approved and and the 11th has 1 of 6, the same ratio as the 12th. There is no justified reason to think you are 'stuck' at this time, we will be approved soon.


So keep the faith! I'm sure you'll be approved very soon!! No touches doesn't mean that they're not looking! Sometimes that 1 touch can be your touch of approval! good.gif

JapanGuest,

Not at all. good.gif It's called "Darling wa America-jin Shorui-hen." Here's the link: c.mixi.jp/paperwork
You'll need an approval(!) before being able to see it, though. But fear not! Unlike CSC, it only takes up to two days to get approved! innocent.gif
Just type in such words as "konnyakusha (in kanji)" or "K1" in the search box to find out what other K-1 filers are up to.
Its sibling site, "Darling wa America-jin," covers more general topics ranging from cultural differences to which souvenirs to bring to the U.S., which I believe make the transition much easier. kicking.gif
I hope you'll find this helpful! innocent.gif

So I called USCIS yesterday using the RFE trick, however this time I proceeded as though I didn't have my receipt number. This led me to a different call center than CSC. The first person I spoke to had to be new, but after a few minutes of run around he agreed to escalate my call. I was excited at the prospects, but as usual I was dissapointed with the results, though I did find it more useful than talking to that one woman at CSC. Anyway, I kept waiting for the 'double touch' as a result of my call. I never saw it change to 8/2 but when I checked this AM it said 8/3. I'm cautiously optimistic yet scared to be hopeful that maybe our case was finally assigned.

Also, I said I'd report back on my NVC email, after one week I've gotten no reply.

Come on Super NOA2 Friday...no whammy no whammy no whammy!

APPROVED!!! kicking.gif kicking.gif kicking.gif kicking.gif

After the touch I had to call. I got a cool guy at CSC and I simply asked, "My case was touched and I want to know if I've been assigned or better yet approved?" Almost immediately he congratulated me and told me I had been approved yesterday. I called my girl right away and we are both ecstatic of course. It's been a tough last month on us, it's nice to finally be through this phase. With the consistency they've shown the past couple of weeks, it should be no time until this thread becomes all about NVC and interviews. I'm confident the rest of our April family will follow shortly.

BTW, he told me they sent the notice yesterday but my case still shows as pending online...

Thank you BrianElla. I would be suprised if you haven't already been approved unless those touches are a result of calls. If you haven't done so, I'd suggest the RFE trick. It's described somewhere around page 45 on this thread. Good luck!

Hey congratulations... It seems like things are moving quite well this week....
We got touched on 08/01 and 08/02. I called Mel to let her know about it. Her internet is down and she's working away from home. She's a Peace Corps Volunteer in St. Vincent. She said that she thinks that I should call to find out about the progress of our case. I am kinda skeptical about that bcos I suspect that they may bring up some privacy issues regardless of the fact that I'm the beneficiary. Do you guys think that it's worth it for me to call CSC, or will I just be wasting my time?

Thanks for the congrats. My suggestion is absolutely to call. You are the beneficiary and therefore have the right to do so, hopefully you will also be informed that you are approved. Good luck!
