Hooray! Congrats! Excellent news both for you and all of us other November filers!

Thank you! Thank you for starting this thread. I can't believe that I just found it. I am the USC and my husband has been very patiently waiting but if the VSC doesn't pick up the pace a bit we will be lucky to get to spend our retirement years together. As you can see by my timeline my I-130 process has been slower than a snails pace. I didn't get my first NOA until February '08 and that was after calling and writing and begging. My I-129F seems to be going a bit smoother but I am too scared to get excited and jinx my luck. Anyway, I am glad to finally have people to compare timelines with.

Is anyone here dealing with Yugoslavia or Montenegro?

YAY for the 1st CSC November approval!!!! I hope they keep it up. I want to be next

Congrats ! We got out 1st ever touch on Monday.. I almost feel dirty Let the November CSC party begin

yes go csc,,,,december csc filer are moving too,,,,two people got approved,,,hopefully more...congrats....god bless

Yay!! We got approved too! I just received the letter today (NOA2 notice date 3/7)! November filers are moving through the system now.

WOW!CONGRATS

We got approved too!!! Our NOA1 date is 11/14, and NOA2 is 3/13 so it took about 4 months to get here...
Hopefully more approval letters will be sent to you all soon...

Congrats! A great start to the weekend!

Congratulations to all approvals!!!!! I am patiently and nervously waiting

thanks!!! finally!!! and congrats to you too
hope all will go smoothly from here let's pray for everyone!!!

congrats to you

thanks!!! our case was touched only once on 12/02/07 and didn't see any change until we got approved, so i guess the touching thing doesn't always mean a lot to everyone. i'm sure yours is on its way too!!!

I wish ours was. I'm happy for all the approvals, but it's really tough to see people who mailed theirs in AFTER you get approved first

I know who you feel . I sent shortly after you for the same country to the same service center. I have always thought.... watch Jen you are right after her. Then someone else from CSC gets approved from December and your mind just goes wait wait... no fair... no cutting in line.
Hopefully you get yours soon and suck mine rightg along with it.

Yea, it's really tough to see other people getting approve right before you. I kind-of stop checking CRIS & this website for awhile just to make me forget the wait..coz it was killing me..hehe. Lets hope for the best!!!

I received our hardcopy NOA2 yesterday. I called Riza up to tell her. we both knew this was one more step one more day closer to being together. I'm trying to get everything together that I will need for our AOS the I-134. That way when she gets the packet from the consulate, she will already have it all and can advise them of her preparedness.

I hope all goes well with the medical and the interview!!

I know our turn will be soon. I was just having a bit of a breakdown earlier

I just wanna let everybody know here that our petition has been APPROVED yesteday! YAHOOOOOOO!!!!

Goodluck to the remaining November filers!!!

CONGRATS ,,,,,,,,,,IM HAPPY FOR YOU.....GO,,CSC

CONGRATS ,,,,,,,,,,IM HAPPY FOR YOU.....GO,,CSC

Yeah, come on CSC, I want one, too!!!!!!!!!

wow good luck! you approved already me im still waiting no update about our petetion we sent last nov.2, 2007. the california service center recieved last nov.9 our aplication but why ?untill now i did not hear nothing from them please help me what are you going to do that you been approve already please share your experiece how you been approved? what do you do ?...please help me please...thank you looking forward to your reply ..thanks

There is NOTHING you can do to be approved, other than submit a carefully prepared and complete package. Once you've filed for the I129F, all you can do is WAIT. I submitted in November as well and I have heard nothing either. I know the wait feels terrible, but all you can do is be patient. You will eventually get the approval and move on to the next stage of waiting for an interview.

hi there
I guess you should call them and ask them why already peoble got approved from december and why you still not hearing anything from them because they clearly say that they do it in order they recieve cases so you better call them and ask ..

I think it is just playing the waiting Game, but if you think it will ease your mind , call them, they arent going to bite your head off you may be lucky and get a helpful person, or you may get an arse, but they may be able to tell you whats going on, or they may just say "be patient" !

November to March isnt that Long, compared to what I have seen others wait, just know it is on the Horizen and I hope and Pray it will be with you as soon as possible

I received the NOA2 hard copy in the mail today!! Odd part is it still shows us as pending on the website just a touch on 3-20.

Today is my birthday, so this is my best birthday present ever

Thanks everyone here for all their support!!

November CSC are slowly but surely get approved. Iguess all those touches mean something!

Congrats! Woohoo!

Hopefully ours will be soon as well!

I sent my I 129F on Nov 7 2007
recieved NOA1 on Nov 14 2007


Still waiting for NOA2

Hi I am Ximena from Chile and my USC fiancee and I are also November filers... the only thing that has happened is my fiancee (USC) rec'd a notice for his biometric interview in Dallas.

The USCIS website has never changed... still says...

On November 6, 2007, we received this I129F PETITION FOR FIANCE(E), and mailed you a notice describing how we will process your case. Please follow any instructions on this notice. We will notify you by mail when we make a decision or if we need something from you. If you move while this case is pending, call customer service. We process cases in the order we receive them. You can use our processing dates to estimate when yours will be done. This case is at our VERMONT SERVICE CENTER location. Follow the link below to check processing dates. You can also receive automatic e-mail updates as we process your case. Just follow the link below to register.

Here is our timeline...

11/5/07 Attorney Overnighted I-129F Pkg to USCIS
11/6/08 Rec'd by VERMONT SERVICE CENTER
2/17/08 Last Update (Touch?)
4/13/08 Rec'd ASC Appointment Notice for USC Biometrics in Dallas
4/24/08 USC Biometrics Appointment in Dallas

The USCIS website (https://egov.uscis.gov/cris/jsps/Processtimes.jsp?SeviceCenter=VSC) says they are processing Nov 17 applications... if ours was rec'd Nov 6 and no word... is something wrong???

Anyone have any thoughts or comments?

Gracias!!!

Ximena
