February 2015 filers - Texas Service Center

[Pennycat 880]

Uscis website says that up to March 31st they finished approval of September 18th K1 ....now its May Month going on. It means we Feb 2015 fillers are approaching near...but we have to wait .

From some more reliable and up-to-date data, It looks as if September is 70% done, October is 21% done and November is 4% done. No info on December and January, but probably few if any approvals.

My math is looking at the numbers and is saying many TSC February filers will get NOA2's in July 2015. Numbers don't lie. The number of cases drop after the September filers are through the system..

you are the only one here gives me so much hope with my noa1

in uscis site they say that they received mine 24 of feb, and last update with my noa1 was second of march

please keep me updated with what u think

i need to know something positive

That's good, I suppose. I have a feeling we'll see a few here and there (random) January approvals come mid-June.

i pray your feeling is right that means feb will see something in july or august, if that happened my god i would be so happy to get my approval that time

There were 3-4 December filers approved recently non are expedited cases or from the Philippines. So we might have some hope to get approved prior to the August- September dates we were given. I have a date of Sept 3rd to 18th for approval. Let's hope that is not the case.

Only thing is I am leaving in a month to go visit my baby and I wish I would have an approval by then so I can help him with the DS form and all the other forms- since they need bank statements and such dated close to the interview.. I'm not sure how to mail things to Cuba. lol Oh well fingers crossed for ALAL of us that we will get approvals in JUNE! Early July!!

Can I ask you how you understood that your case was updated? We have NOA1 dated 4 th of February and it has been just said YOUR CASE WAS RECEIVED since then on the uscis site. No visible sings that somebody touched it.

Thank you.

Hi Fellow Feb Filers: Just wanted to share that more accurate tracking data (than VJ) is provided daily here: http://eepurl.com/bnV385. It shows a large number of approvals, RFEs, and received petitions for all TSC k1 filers from Aug 14 through Mar 2015. It's growing everyday!

hello fellow feb filers. I'm just really curious because I kept on reading those "philippine expedites" on this forum.
Is it really true tho? the flood was sooo in the past and I just think that these so called 'expedites' are not only in the PH.
It could be just a lottery (someone on TSC decided to pick a case from december) and the random person who gets the approval is from the PH,
since PH has a big percentage of K1 filers.

it is like this...
random case gets approval:

it's from PH, must be an expedite.
not from PH, oh it must be magic.

bottom line waiting in TSC sucks :(

The PH expedites seem to have tapered of in the last few months. They were definitely still on in Jan/Feb - now I haven't seen any cases anymore that were not expedited for other reasons.

Today is one of those days where the waiting takes a toll on us.

My fiancé and I both helped each other a lot - even with the distance - with our college workload. He graduated in May and it was painful to not be able to go to his graduation after everything I've done to support him make it there. I was so happy and proud of him and it was so hard missing his big moment. Only a few days later he got a great job. I was beyond myself with pride. All I wanted was to hug him, kiss him and say how much he deserved all this. The job is in a new city, so I was the one who went online looking for our new house and doing other related researches. After we decided on a place, I sent him the money for half the amount needed to move in and am slowly looking online for furniture, etc.

I wasn't there for the moving, and call me silly, but I wanted to have had that experience with him. I wanted to have helped out more and now I want nothing more than make that new place a home with him.

He had good news at work today and called me first thing to tell me all about it and I took the opportunity to tell him again how proud I am of him and that he deserves all that he's getting because of all his hard work. That's when he told me that all of these happy moments have been deeply bittersweet because I'm a part of all of them, but I'm not there to share the happiness with him, that he's always sad in these good moments because we're never together to celebrate them.

The way I feel is my life has started and I'm not there to live it.

Two weeks ago, I bought a ticket to go visit him on August 7th. I'm kind of freaked out about it, because last time I spent two months (December - February) and even though I didn't go to the secondary questioning room, the immigration officer in Miami asked me a whole lot of questions before letting me in and seemed suspicious. The subject of me knowing somebody in the U.S. never came up, by the way. Now I'm afraid I'm on some kind of list and I'm worried as to how it's gonna go this next time.

I'm sorry for venting, but I felt like other February filers in TSC would understand how frustrating it is to have to wait until September (possibly) to find out if they got an RFE that would delay their case even more or if they've finally been allowed to go on to another phase of waiting. I do understand that my fiancé and I are very lucky to have seen each other for a month or two every semester and that most people don't have that opportunity. I also realize I'm upset for not being with him to share GOOD news and that there are so many people in a much worst situation.

I don't know.. let's just keep in mind that we're over halfway through the Texas blackhole (supposedly) and that if fate is kind, we might be with our loved ones this year still. I say that supposing everything will go smoothly and the approvals come in September and the Consulate interviews come at the most 3 months later, in December (I know that in my case, it takes about two months for the interview in Rio after NOA2, but who knows).

Once again, I'm sorry for letting it all out here, but I had no other group of people that would understand how it feels as well as people here would. I don't wanna be this melancholic around my fiancé because he's suffering too and I need to be strong enough around him today to say that everything is gonna be ok and that we will be together in no time.

To everybody here, I just wish you all a lot of love and patience. Don't forget to tell your fiancés you love them today, and that they're more than worth all the hassle and wait. This is just a phase. People go their entire lives without finding their soulmates and we are lucky enough the be one of the people that did.

Stay strong and communicate every day. Never lose hope. It will all be worth it, in the end.

It's very frustrating to wait .. Every second away from your partner seems like an hour.. We are all in the same boat. Hang in there sister .

Venting is allowed here.. specially in the TSC K1 threads

and even before mid june, by now there are January approvals happens

i cant wait to see my approval and all share it here
