well, i have just talked to someone at the vermont service center about a possible undelivered RFE. i asked about whether or not we were supposed to be receiving one and were told that there was no RFE coming and that our I-129F was up for review, and that we should receive a notice shortly. can't rightly tell y'all what that means, but i am just hoping that it means that they are actually looking at it (no online updates, though) and since there are no RFEs, there are no problems. has anyone else had this experience. if so, i could use some clarificaton as to what "up for review" means.

How'd you get in touch with them? Which number did you call? I'm hesitant to say anything because from my experience, and this board, USCIS helpline has been pretty unhelpful in actual case status (besides from what you can see on the website).

if you call the customer service line, go through the motions about RFE, put in your receipt number, you will ultimately get a hold of a person in vermont. simply ask if there was an RFE sent out, and they will tell you yes or no (maybe). i have called that number before and have talked to folks that were less helpful than the customer service line. it is the luck of the draw, really. they can only give basic info, so calling them will not get you all of the answers that you may have. like i said.. all i was able to find out was that there were no RFEs, and that the case was "up for review". sometimes, you can apparently do this and they will say that the case was approved and such, even though there was no status change on the USCIS website. however, if you simply ask what the status is, they won't tell you. i know that this is not much help, but it is better than nothing.

Oh my god vikasp! i was gonna ask the same question! How are we able to reach those guys? i mean my husband has been trying to contact them but he ends up talking to someone from NVC telling him that there is no update. There is even one time, we sent an email to them and we were told that they don't have any records of our case numbers (NOA1 for I129F - I130)

I am really worried about this, it's been almost 6 months and i never got any touch from my I130... If someone can post the VSC's contact number, that'll be awesome!

Thanks!

The number is (800) 375 – 5283

They have been no use to me at all. I have called it every day and asked if I have gotten an RFE and they say "Have you gotten a request in the mail?" and when I say "No" they say "Your case is pending and we will have no information for you unless the petition was received 180 days or further out" and that is all they tell me.

They did say that they update the website only once every two weeks which I thought was interesting.

Did you get a Transfer notice for your I-130? You should have gotten at least the I-797C saying that they transfered the petition and an e-mail update stating when CSC received it

Rings...you and your husband have an incredible love as evidenced by both your postings. The words written by both of you shot right to my core. My husband and I (along with many others here) went through the same trials, the same emotions, the same anger, the same tears, the same waiting...waiting...waiting...seemingly endless waiting.

It's wrenching. But it's also bonding. Our K-3 application took 5 months to get approved. And I couldn't count up the number of nights I sobbed myself to sleep. I can say, however, that once the approval came, everything sped up drastically.

Although what we endured together (apart) was a nightmare--and it absolutely was--it also gave us something only an experience like this could...it gave us strength.

You'll get through this because you have to. And I promise, your relationship will reap the rewards of your hard work and patience.

ONE DAY AT A TIME....

I am trying to stay positive. I really am. I just miss him so much. I know that all of you are waiting too and you all have your own sorrows. I am just so torn up as petitions get approved that were sent in at later times than ours. We got the slow line and that is so hard to swallow when you throw everything into the petition and research and studies to be sure every detail is right. I spent so many late nights just pouring over sites and taking notes.

I know that patience is a virtue. I feel like a child who is throwing a temper tantrum haha. I can't help it though... the kids miss him and ask about him and it is heartbreaking. I miss the simple things... his smell or the way his hand feels in mine. I know that someday this ache will end and that we will be stronger and we will be more aware of what we could be living without. I know this all rationally, but my head is having such a hard time sending that rationality to my heart. I have never done anything so hard in my entire life.

I know that each one of you is going through this and I hope that luck is on your side. I hope so much that you all remain strong and fight the fight. If any of you ever need an ear.. I have two
