FEBRUARY 2022 I-129F K1 FILERS

[Bh_sarah 942]

I don’t think they are skipping people, they have different agents working on different ranges. They don’t work in perfect order, it is not a drive-thru. Some agents are quicker than others. Some cases are quicker and easier than others, but that doesn’t say anything when it comes to cases being left behind. If you look at the numbers I posted from Friday, you’ll see the main activity is around Feb 7th. Doesn’t mean they skipped all those before the 7th. I’m a Feb 22nd and some cases filed after me were approved. Some March cases have been approved! People from January and December are still waiting too. Our time will come

I don't scan March even though some on range 56000 are early March filers. I saw some approvals last week in March and April through the Lawfully statistics page. They even give you the receipt number, I scanned those individually and they were straight approvals, not expedited, but they only show you stats from the last 3 days so I think the ones I saw are gone now. Another proof they do not work in order, there are cases being approved in February since the start that there aren't expedited ones. I started tracking them on May 2022 and counted 22 cases like that before they even stated working in January 2022.

I saw that, too. It's interesting how those just made it straight through.

I have been trying to figure out what’s behind these “skimming “ process they do. Some members came out with an explanation but not enough. I was always think if a filer has lots of baggage like divorce , Uscis would skip that filer. I was wrong on that. There is no set rules that is available to us. 

I can understand their expedite process. Like a hardship or come from a war torn country. They get processed right away.

That assumption of expedited cases being processed right away also proved wrong to me, at least in some specific cases, probably still true for the majority. Maybe for the Ukrainians back in Feb 22 it was true. But not everyone that has an expedited request approved is that lucky, which is super weird to me since their expedited did get approved, so they must have an emergency.

Just an example, from my tracked expedited Feb 22 cases so far: there's one case that got their expedited request approved on April 2022... not a movement after that. Also 2 other approved expedited cases that got an RFE months after they were approved. These RFEs never became an RFER and this was many months ago as well. Also some cases that got their expedited request approved early in 2022 but only got their approval now on March, 2023... So many requests still handing with no approval for the expedite. I can't seem to find a pattern for those, some expedite reasons may be stronger than others. We're all left at USCIS' mercy.
