I do not want to lose hope but it is taking all my energy everyday to stay postive. Please USCIS give us our approvals this week good.gif
maria_n_john

I know there are mixed opinions as to the value of this, but I see that USCIS California has updated its processing date to April 14.

I may not know why exactly, but I feel a little closer to approval.

I talked to my attorney today. He said he has been getting a lot of approvals through CSC at the 4 month mark.

Have we ended the whole: "They go by when they receive the petition/They go by the NOA1 issue date" debate? According to my attorney again, Our petition was sent out on 6/04 and received by NSC on 6/07. If that is the case, I must be getting close...if they are going by when the petition was received.

Go here and register as a customer applicant. You will need your case number to register. After registering, you can check the status of your petition here.

Do not expect very many changes in your status. However, if someone at a service center does something with your file, it will be noted in your online case status. When the date of the most recent case activity has changed, this is considered a touch.

I am at 4 1/2 months and stilll waiting. My issue date is 5/27. I see someone was approved today from Nebraska that filed on 6/1 and had an NOA1 date of 6/14. I am very happy for them but what about people still waiting from May. How does this happen?
Jamie76
It does suck. Considering there are those that filed in April that are still getting approved. I'm not sure what a straightforward petition is compared to one that takes longer. In some cases, I think there is no rhyme or reason.

I am borderline filer-between May and June . I sent my petition on May, 16, but got NOA1 notice on June 5 (accorging to website)

Here is their timeline- You can see they are not truly June filers, but February 2006 filers.

Nebraska Service Center
HCMC Consulate

K1 Timeline
2/27/06 I-129F Sent
5/5/06 petition sent to NVC
10/6/06 first interview- Blue slip request more evidence

10/26/06 2 interview-Green slip visa denied section 221(g) consulate called it a sham
12/6/06 sent back to NVC
1/24/06 NVC sent case to CSC
2/6/07 Arrived CSC
2/17/07 Filed FOIA to see consular notes
4/19/07 CSC tells my congressman Liaison that they have no record of receiving my case and they can't look for it until the FOIA is scanned.
4/25/07 Receive letter from NRC DHS USCIS that states it will take 12-18 months to complete FOIA request
4/30/07 My case was scanned for the FOIA and now CSC can look at it. I chose to cancel the FOIA request
5/01/07 CSC locates file. They say that they don't know why it was sent to them and not NSC. They also say that they don't send petitioner any notification and it is expired and I can file a new petition.

Looks like a June 1 filer to me. The first petition from 2006 was approved and they were rejected at the interview. The June petition was a brand new one. It does not look like the second petition was expedited although they do seem to be a little ahead of the pack.

In any case, what an ordeal for them! I sure hope things go better this time.
