There is no record of anyone getting an RFE for typing vs writing in that box. If you find someone who got an RFE for that, please let us all know.

All the best February 2016 Filers, I'm a February 2015 Filer, best advise is to be patient, make sure you send off all the documents to avoid RFE's, and during the NVC stage, they can send you a check

No, I know that. What I mean is they have (unfortunately) been given the backlog from Texas plus their own new cases. There are people there with NOA1 dates from July. So if ours has been sent there,

It happens occasionally, but not all that often that is. California usually handles K1/DCF filings. Can't say it won't happen though.

Welcome Redot!

0725 - It would be awesome. Sometimes cases are transferred between service centers. I wouldn't mind if this happened if it was going to Cali either! lol

All the best February 2016 Filers, I'm a February 2015 Filer, best advise is to be patient, make sure you send off all the documents to avoid RFE's, and during the NVC stage, they can send you a checklist of a document you sent through to them.

If you ever need to find out about anything, I'm here, I pretty much know about 99% of how this whole process goes...my interview is this Thursday.

All the best to everyone...We are in this to support and advise each other!!

It would have been quicker if my husband was here with me and a legal resident in SA. That's the only way it would have gone faster.

Are you doing Direct Consular Filing (DCF), if so, then yes, it's normally about 4-6 months average.
