Hi.

I've read thread after thread about how far behind TSC is processing I-129fs and I am just so frustrated by the unfairness. Should I move across the country for 6 months just to get the USCIS to process our application 4-5 months sooner? It's just ridiculous.

I am going to email my senators and congressperson about this absurd imbalance. I am also trying to bring it the attention of the White House. Please sign the petition here: http://wh.gov/loVaS Ask your friends and family to sign. Email your representatives with a link to the petition so that they can see how many of us are affected. If we get 100,000 signatures by June 28 (a stretch, I know, but let's try!), the White House will review the petition directly!

Thanks.

Heather.

This is a good idea. It is very ridiculous. Especially for a PAID service. Anyway... I've signed.

Stop. this is all normal and everyone has gone through this. Until your case is around 10 months wait will you have any leg to stand on.

@barron555 - Actually, only people stuck at TSC have gone through this. The forums are full of West-Coast people who are receiving NOA2s 6-8 weeks from CSC after their NOA1s. The balance may have been different in the past, but that doesn't make it ok. Load balancing is not rocket science, nor is it unreasonable.

Everyone else - Apparently whitehouse.gov doesn't expose the petition to searches until it has at least 150 signatures! Please share the link so we can get over that threshold.

Thanks.

Waste of time guys. TSC has cut their I-129f time in half since a year ago. They are doing well. And fiancés are getting much faster service than folks with spouses and babies they are separated from. If any resources need shifting, it is not for K1s who are within the processing time goal.

I agree. K1 visa wait times are more than reasonable. But ... the squeaky wheel ....
