K-1 Case Status

Hello

Does anyone know how long it takes for the USCIS to give you updated regarding "Current Case Status"? I have already received the official NOA1 letter, and after checking a few days later i'm still don't see any updates online from the USCIS.

You will not receive regular updates. Your petition is currently sitting in a box awaiting adjudication and will likely be there for a few months. You can use the VJ timeline feature to get an estimate on when an adjudicator will review your file. From there, it will either be approved, receive an RFE (request for further evidence), or denied.

Edit: Be sure to update your timeline based on where the petition was sent -- Vermont Service Center or California. Texas Service Center does not process I-129F petitions. Your petition was sent to the Dallas lockbox, which is not the same as the TSC.

I was actually going to ask the same question today - I also recently received by NOA1 with my case number. I entered the case number on the USCIS website to check my status. It looks like the first step is acceptance - does this mean acceptance (approval) of the entire package or just acceptance meaning they received the package?

When I look up my status now it just says: Your case can not be found at this time in My Case Status. Please check your receipt number and try again. If you need further assistance, please call the National Customer Service Center at 1.800.375.5283. - which of course is not helpful because it is a recording.

Thanks for your help!!

If you hover your mouse pointer over the circles you should be able to get an explanation of each step in their scheme.

It is NOT a totally fail-proof and accurate system, by any means! USCIS isn't the speediest at updating their system. From your timeline it appears that you just filed, give them another week to update their system.

Thanks for your help!!

BTW, here is the VJ estimate from your timeline: "Based on timeline data, your I129f may be adjudicated between April 30, 2013 and May 5, 2013*.

Sit back and start reading up on the next step in the process.

Good luck on your visa journey.
