Any August filers still no NOA2?

[Davidlee 0]

Filed August 30th to Vermont for K1, touch Dec 6th and still nothing. Just curious if any others still haven't received an answer. Have called repeatedly and am only being told they are 30 days behind. Well, Im past the "30 days" behind mark as well. We are in our 7th month. Does this mean problems?

Any help would be greatful,

regards,

David Smith

Hi David

We received our NOA1 on 13th Sept. So a little after you. 25 days ago we were told by an officer at Vermont that they were dealing with applications 23 days before ours, so they asked that we wait a further 23 days before we contact them again. Your story confirms that this is nonsense. Needless to say we will be sending more emails and calling again this week.

We are in the same boat... Good luck. Hope yours arrive very soon.

I called VSC today. Again I was told thar they are handling cases from 8/21... I heard that same story last week.

that'll be me. almost 7months and still nadda, we filed July 27, NOA1 is Aug 16 at the CSC. Got Transferred to TSC and then CSC again. called them, talked to the supervisor, they said they will send a request to adjudicate my case so still hoping this week. very frustrating journey this is

[Jota & Craig 0]

they said the same thing to us one week ago, that they were processing the ppl from the 24th of Aug, so I really dont know what to believe, they are just taking too long on this process. And they are just giving us any answer so we stop calling for a while.

have any of you try to contact the vermont office directly? because they told us to wait 30 more days and only after 6 months of waiting is considering that our paper are out of the normal processing time and then we can apply for an expedided process on our case, but we have to apply for it and they take 2 week more or less to give you and answer to that request and then may be process our 129F. at least that is the answer that they gave to the senator. does anybody else had a similar answer?

This is a common mistake or let's call it a misunderstanding that everybody goes through. Calling the USCIS, they tell him they are processing date, then in another week they still give him the same answer.

Let me tell you exactly what happens. They are not lying to you or anything. All what it is, is that this information gets updated on the 14th of every month. So if you call on the 20th of February for example, and they tell you they are processing applications filed till August 10th, you will here the same answer till the 14th of the month then you will start hearing a different date starting the 15h.

This is a common misunderstanding that lot of people go through. I hope my reply was useful to you

Well, yes, I find this a Very helpful bit of information. How did you find this out, about the 14th of the month I mean?

Well me and my fiance were also as impatient and worried like you guys. On the 2nd of the 5th month of our noa1, we called the USCIS. They told my fiance that we have to wait for 30 days for a reply from them, there are people i have read says 60 days to wait for a reply. Of course we were frustrated and disappointed but we had no choice but to wait.

But 22days after, our noa2 got approved. I believed that those operators that we all to talk to say and tell you the worse scenario. We are lucky that our noa2 came sooner than we were told. So be patient there..and it wont hurt if you keep on calling them. who knows?

Good luck to all of you!!

oh by the way...we are also August filers..=))

Yes, we did get a service request request number on Feb 18th. They are telling us we have to wait 30 days for a response to that. Good Luck you you guys.

The info about the date the service center is currently working is correct. The service center only updates that date on the 14th of each month. So from the 14th of one month to the 13th of the next month you will most likely hear the same answer. I had a nice customer service rep help explain this to me. I am an early Sep filer waiting in the same boat as you all : )

Yep, we are right here with you! Our NOA1 date August 5! 3 days shy of 7months exactly we were notified of RFE. That was March 2nd...now waiting for that to come in the mail.

[A&F 0]

NOA1-August 5th and we received our NOA2 last Monday (almost after 7 months of waiting and no RFE). The irony is that today in the mail, I got the hard copy of our NOA2 and the response to the service request of 02/14. The letter said: your application is still under review and you should obtain a response within the next 30 days ... I praise God I didn't have to wait that long!!!
