How fast is Missouri Service Center?

[ullumanali 0]

Anybody have any recent experiences with CSC - how long before they approve and forward the K3 petition?

Thanks!

For K-3, Vermont Service Center seems to average to about 40 days for an approval. I have a few more days.

ullamanalli,

In your case, between the first NOA and the 2nd NOA from your I-129F, it is about 98 days on average.

holy #######! twice the time as VSC eh?... well let's hope for a miracle....

Interestingly, my aunt had applied for the IR1 (I-130) for my grandparents in Sept 2006 at the CSC. While they are still showing processing dates of August 2006 at the CSC for such applications, my grandparents already received the packets to confirm and set-up their interviews in Mumbai for next month!! For an IR1!

So miracles do happen, hoping for the best!

About the processing time on the service centers I read on the forum that they show the oldest case they are working on, but obviously there is not only one person working on a case... this explains the differences. I think that the timelines on this forum should be quite accurate.

After sending the I129 to Chicago mine got transferred to MSC, stayed there for a few days and then went off to Vermont where it is now pending. It shouldn't be long until yours is transferred as well. MSC is nothing more than a PO station where the forms are sorted out and shipped off.

Is it necessary that the service center of a I-130 petition will be same as it's corresponding I-129F?

I'm pretty sure that it is necessary.

I had sent my I-130 to the California Service Center and the folks at Missouri first forwarded my I-129F to Vermont. After a month and a half of just sitting at Vermont, the I-129F was forwarded to California.

So, yes, I think the two applications should end up at the same place.

And if you're seemingly unlucky like me, it will take a month and a half for any errors to be corrected!

Seconded. It (I-129F) will go to the same service center as the I-130.

I hope that you guys will get a quick approval!

I heard that when the case is transfered from NBC to VSC, it will be approved in about 2 weeks after. I wonder if that's true.

I'm quite impatient. I want my approval, today!

I'm expecting for it to arrive either this week or next week.
