We just got an NOA1 email notification! 

 And of course our petition went to CSC and hope their work speed is getting faster! 

Finger crossed for all March filers!

 

 

I-129F Sent : 2018-03-14
I-129F NOA1 : 2018-03-20

 

Any rhyme or reason to which service center they go to?  You live in Texas but it goes to CSC.  I read on one older thread it was based on where you live.  But that goes against the logic.

I had read that too but seems that the last few people from Texas in this thread were sent to CSC so obviously that must not be the case.

From what I heard, most of petitions for K-1 goes to California service center. All these service centers are dealinng with different types of visa

Yeah, it's hard to believe that little more than a year ago, it was only taking them 3 months or so to process K1 applications. :crying: Makes me wish I had met my fiance a lot earlier, but love and life has no timeline, as they say.

Indeed!

 

Does anyone know if it is a change of policies and procedures from within or influenced by the current presidential administration?

Yes, quoting myself. haha

 

Looks like a couple other threads popping up about this same question/issue.

As far as I've read on this forum, that's part of it: the new administration wants tougher vetting of all new immigrants. And because of this new stance, they received a flood of applications last year because most people were afraid that it's now or never.......so it was a perfect storm, really. :crying: :bonk:

 

There are signs that they're slowly working through reducing the backlog (maybe they're finally staffing up again?) but I'm hoping that the current uncertain political environment doesn't affect their work. So far the numerous government shutdowns supposedly doesn't affect USCIS, but if they're understaffed then that's another problem.
