October 2013 I-130 Filers

[Vivian&Jaba 17]

Nebraska Service center is such, sometimes super fast and makes us surprised and sometimes so quiet you will think that they aren't working at all. I hope till end of the month they will make another wave where my case will be in Just i am wondering your ideas about: 100 case above and below much people are approved already, it is weird but they skipped like 11 case inducing mine. How does it work?! When my case will get approved i think my wife and i will celebrate it like more than any holiday Wish everything great for all of us October filers.

I am hoping to see more approvals soon. Let us get the remaining Oct filers approved. Come'on NSC, TSC, VSC, CSC

[AmberG 23]

For people that are waiting still for an approval I hope you get it soon!! But don't get too down- my PD was 10/1 and it took 6 months and 10 days to get the approval. There were people at the end of September who were even just getting approvals recently. So I know everyone will get approved really soon!

Appreciating, thanks a lot.

I know the feeling about NSC. It feels like it is dead now. LOL!

I don't know exactly how it works but my guess is- depending on your case, whether I130, I140, AOS, etc etc they issue you a number as they get the cases, thats why you will see so many cases approved or not right before you as they maybe filing for I765, I140 etc etc. I think it depends on the priority of kind of case you are on. I believe (with an educated guess) that standalone I130 are pretty low priority in immigration process. I believe illegal immigrant situation, then spouses already in the USA, and people adjusting their status in USA take priority over us. Thats how they have made the system. And of course in the past year it has become really bad. Its also because i think the level of undocumented workers in the USA have increased and i believe political parties realize that if you get them their green cards and on the path to citizenship faster they will make a big difference in the voting in the next elections or the ones after. We are a very small minority in the stand alone process. If you or I were in the USA right now, our process would be done with 5 months. I know three of my friends who filed in late september, and two in november have already gotten their Green Cards. i also know of two other couples, who filed in march and april last year and got their green cards by july. this is when the standalone I-130 were taking a year. And yes they were not on expedited process.

And then there is a random effect. I think a bunch of cases on random in the case files go to each desk and it depends on the officer processing your paperwork - how slow or fast they are in processing. Thats why i think sometimes people with the same priority date has their paper processed before you.

Its a mess of a system right now. I sincerely hope that we all get our paperwork done soon. Wishing everyone the best of luck.

Congrats! That's strange since I thought USCIS had updated their system (if you have signed up for their email/text notification alert).

NSC was ON FIRE last Thursday and Friday. So many approvals. Well, it's been very quiet for the last two days. I hope they didn't burn out.

Well, I have a feeling that most Oct filers will be approved by the end of this month or early next month. Fingers crossed!

CSC: 82%

VSC: 62%

NSC: 78%

TSC: 44%

Total: 69%

I think they ran out of coffee and red bull. Maybe we should all get together and collect monetary funds to keep supplying them with coffee and red bull supplies.

I just got APPROVED!!

PD: Oct 22nd, direct to NSC.

Finally, relief, now there is at least a semblance of an actual timeline for this ordeal to be over.

Thanks.

I filed a service request, and an expedite. However, I haven't received a response to either yet.

So it seems this was just normal processing, either that, or they got tired of my other half badgering them every day.

How long did it take for your case to get to NVC and have you been given a case number from them yet ?
