I ask them last time. They lady I was talking to, well I don't know....

i think they just making up the date and month they are working on so when people call them to put a service request they can tell them that they are still within a processing time!! that's just my opinion

Some workers work faster than others, some have quicker cases than others. While they may say they are on a specific month its quite likely other months would get processed too. When people get RFEs they stop working on those cases and move on to other ones in their stack regardless of what month they are from, they grab the next one on top.

They wont ever give a specific "correct" answer because the people you call on the phone work at a call center not at the office where they process the cases.

Masha, I am ging to suggest you go to the Ukraine "portal" and read the thread about the person that has had multiple RFEs and APs and everything else because they did not take the time to LEARN and prepare for their new life with their spouse but they spent every moment worrying about who got approved and why for months on end.

You want to feel better about this? Seriously? STOP CHECKING and get about preparing for your spouse-to-be from Ukraine. I have a spouse from Ukraine and I assure you that you do not have enough time to prepare properly for all you will need to do. The approval for the petition will come, and then you will WAIT MORE for the NVC and then you will WAIT MORE for the interview. There is NOTHING in those timelines and lists that has any practical value to your or your spouse-to-be.

FWIW, our I-129f petition still shows "initial review" and has not been updated to "approved" and we filed in March...2008
