How many?

[jasal 0]

There are many who are registered on this site as having a K1, K3 or some other type of petition, but despite the seeminly large quantity of people registered here at VJ, is there a way to know how many people are really being processed at CSC? I'm not happy with the results of CSC as they seem to be very arbitary in how they handle each case choosing people who filed in September to approve while making some May, June, July and August filers wait. In talking to some of the "left-behind" filers, there doesn't seem to be any known pattern as to why they've been overlooked and others have not. Some have prior marriages, some have prior K-1 submissions.... and others are first-time filers. A few have minor police records such as parking or speeding tickets. Most sent in their applications with tons of evidence and so far only a few of those who are still waiting for approval, actually have RFE's pending. Most of us who are still waiting are a mixed bag of filers who for one reason or another... or for no particular reason.. have been laid aside by CSC while they focus their attention on September and soon October filers. This is great for those who filed in September and October but it leaves those of us remaining with alot of whys that can't be answered. And calling the 1-800- HELP line is only a frustrating adventure into Alice in Wonderland. I think that we all realize that some cases might take longer if there was some special reason for itt and if having read and heard most of the pending cases stories... if there was a common thread as to why all of us are still waiting... none came up during my minor investigation. I thought maybe certain countries were targeted. Communist countries for instance. Nope. Someone from Cuba got processed lightning fast and many from China and Viet Nam have rolled through in as fast as anyone else. Surprising to me was how many of the pending cases are from Great Britian. Probably means nothing but it was interesting. And while this small disertation by me doesn't get mine or any of the other pending cases approved, it did distract my mind from the horrible waiting and wondering while I did the small investigation. Maybe the folks at CSC will feel some sympathy in the following couple of weeks and will process some of the pending applications that have been overlooked for whatever the reason.

When IMBRA hit, USCIS indicated the error affected 10,000 petitions. So VJ represents a very small portion of I-129F filers. Unfortunately, your timeline is well within normal range. There's not much you can do until your NOA1 date is 30 days past their current processing times, and by then, you'll surely have your NOA2.

Did you get my email response to you? I know you are very frustrated and myheart goes out to you. I know it doesn;t reallyhelp to say it will come eventually, but it will.

This process has sent me nerly over the edge a few times I was within the processing times. All you can do is keep educating yourself with the experiences here, take refuge inthe support sytem here and with your friends. I have great friends, but its hard for them to understand the process from the outside.
