September Filers!

I am SO excited right now!

We just got our NOA2 today!!!

Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

WOW! Amazing! Congratulations to you both I am incredibly happy and jealous all at the same time!!

Jealous?! ME?! ~giggles~ ABSOLUTELY I'm jealous! Of course I wish that I had my NOA2 already, but I'm super happy for them! A good headstart is always great.

It would be great if this was the beginning of a trend. I'm only worried that it will be a VSC trend, like it was in the past and not a CSC trend. Oh well, it will all work itself out in the end. I'm just trying to stay positive!

I see that more October filers are getting their NOA1's from CSC. I'm sure it's redundant but have any of you, the September filers, gotten your NOA1 yet? How about you Mox?

Hello all...I'm a newbie...my first post.

I sent my I-129F on Sept. 25th and received by CSC on Sept. 26th.

I'm still waiting for NOA1. Hopefully I will get it sometime this week.

Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

I said it in the other forum and I will say it again, CONGRATULATIONS! I am so hapy for you guys. I can only imagine that you are walking on cloud nine. Keep up the good work and I hope that we all start seeing some faster processing times than expected! Come on CSC! (and if that wasn't clear enough....nope, no word on the NOA1)

Welcome to the group. To all the September filers, I believe I was one of the earliest filers for the month. I mailed the petition on 9/4, and it was delivered to CSC on 9/6. 47 days by now, and according to all the world wisdom, I should have got my NOA1. Nut no NOA1, no cashed check. It is as if all the September files were left in a storage room and forgotten. Hopeless and helpless...Sigh!

Thanks for posting, wind, glad to hear from someone who filed so close to the beginning of the month. I agree with you, it's as if they set aside our files and just moved on to October. But while I'm frustrated and a bit anxious, I am at least hopeful that there's a rational explanation for this, and that we'll still be processed in the order we were received. It could be that they streamlined some internal process at the end of September, and we're just kinda "kinks" in the system that they'll eventually work out. Sure would be nice if they'd provide some transparency to ease our mind, but that's a whole 'nuther ball 'o wax.

I still am recommending that September filers who haven't received NOA1 yet send an email to the CIS ombudsman. You can read my original post here. I think the sooner this is done, and the more filers that do it, the greater the pressure we can put on USCIS to sit up and take notice that there are a lot of filers who are sitting in limbo, wondering if their petitions have even been received.

Wind, I am with you. My petition was also received on Sept 6 in California, and nothing! I think we are some of the first, so hopefully if we see something change in the next few days so will the rest of the Sept. Filers. And Mox....I emailed them last night. Lets see if we can get some more people emailing and see if we can get this ball rolling!

Hello All,

I just wanted to pass on that our NOA1 was sent from the VSC on 2 October. Our packet was sent 17 September. I would have posted sooner, but I've been in Thailand all this time enjoying my fiancee and her parents, and have not had too much time on the computer!

Hi September filers,

I filed in October with VSC and have received my NOA1 etc already. I wanted to lend a few words that may put you at ease a bit. Although the NOA1 notice date matched the day the petition was entered in the system, the receipt date in the top corner of the NOA1 hardcopy matched the date the USPS had posted as the delivered date. This was about 3 days earlier than the notice date. This doesn't say much except that hopefully in your cases, they will be entered with the receipt date that they were actually received in Sept, and processed in that order.

I know I would be at my wits end though, if I didn't even see the check cashed. I'm sorry.

Has anyone else called USCIS, as per the USCIS Ombudsman's recommendation,

5. Wait Times - How long should someone wait to receive a receipt for an application filed this summer before inquiring about it? Should an application be re-filed?

Response: We suggest that you review the weekly “Receipting Update” posted on www.uscis.gov, which has the receipting dates for each application type. If your application was filed before the date posted, go ahead and call USCIS customer service (1-800-375-5283) and email our office at cisombudsman.publicaffairs@dhs.gov.

and asked about their case? If USCIS says they have receipted all cases up to 9/29/07 we all should have received our NOA1's and had our checks cashed by now.

It's crazy that it seems like ALL of the September filers are experiencing this. I mean, it would almost be understandable for one or two, but ALL of them, that's just ridiculous!

I am with you guys too, I sent my I-130 to CSC and they recieved it on Sept 4th. I heard nothing yet an d my check hasn't cashed, I am starting to get reall sad, my wife is in Pakistan, I worry about her a lot.

Mo, it seems that we are the first two September filers, at least on this forum. Hopefully we will hear something soon.

Another day, another disappointment. But I think moxcamel has a point. If none of the September filers has received NOA1, there should be a rational explanation then. It cannot be that all of our files were lost, the only silver lining in this miserable situation.

moxcamel, I sent an email to them. As you said, hopefully they will begin to notice us if many of us send emails.

I sent an email too.
