DACA Renewals holding up CSC

[Cora_Lee 2]

Hello everyone,

I hope this is the right place, and if this has been answered before I couldn't find it.

Other than those who had an RFE from before 3 weeks ago, there have been no 129f approvals from California in a while. At first I thought this was because of the glitch in the visa system, but then I was told by someone in the June filers forum that it was probably because of DACA renewals, and that's why they were getting through approvals in March, May and early June so quickly- to prepare for DACA renewals.

It looks like there isn't a deadline or anything for DACA renewals, so I was just wondering if anyone has any idea how long they will be working on these and not 129f approvals.

I'm trying to be patient, but unfortunately I got my hopes up that ours would fly through like those sent a few weeks before us, and it's now looking like I have to readjust my expectations.

Thanks, and again if this has been answered already i'm sorry, please point me in that direction.

Cora_Lee-- Is your Consulate really Armenia?

Don't forget we only see a small percentage of the number of petitions that go through any service centre, some people may not come back to update their timelines etc.

Also, AFAIK, it's not that they won't be working on the I129Fs at all, they'll just have to balance that against other form types. These things always seem to go in cycles, TSC wsa relatively fast until November time last year, now it's slowed right down but I'm sure will speed up again at some point.

I really hope they continue to work on the 129fs, but good point about only seeing a small percentage.

Our I-129F was approved yesterday (August 5th, 2014) at California Service Center, in 67 days, no RFEs. Last week when I heard about the upcoming DACA renewals at CSC believe me I also started to get worried because I saw that most people who filed around the time I filed got already approved (at least the ones who updated their timeline on here.
