Technically, I am an October filer because my package was not mailed until 7 am on October 1; I would like to be part of this thread.

Nevertheless, my package was received today, October 2 at approx. 10 AM in Vermont Service Center. I am sure hoping for a quick turnaround, check cashing, NOA1, NOA2, no RFE's, and sending to NVC and Moscow quickly.

January 11, 2008 Touched again

January 16, 2008 Officially canceled but we will find a way to be together, either in Holland or some other country.

Wow! 31 days for an NOA1 is ridiculous if you ask me! I'm hoping that the early September filers are starting to see them though!

Nothing has happened as of yet....but if the 31 day average is right I should see some movement during hte next week...I will be sure to keep everyone up to date! I am sure it will give us all a sense of hope...

Hang in there everyone! We will make it through this darn process

Sorry to disappoint you but it actually makes more sense to count the waiting time from the date of NOA-1. We are "technically" March filers but got NOA-1 on April 10 and were generally in synch with the April bunch. The US-Sickos don't even officially recognize the existence of your file until they issue the first notice.

Hmm...I wonder how come VSC is getting their NOA1's out so much faster than CSC? It doesn't make sense to me, especially if they supposedly have the same workload. Interesting!

Wow! You did quite a bit of research on this one with the time lines. In my opinion, no one really knows what goes on inside USCIS. I personally don't like the process and the system, but we do not have any choice or any other option. It has to be done this way. Everyone has to go through it.

I did call two weeks ago, USCIS CSC representative mentioned since the rate increased for petitions, a ton of applications were received prior to the increased fees. Therefore they are busy. (back logged)

For those 6 'time line entries' you mentioned.

You can send them a PM. Maybe they can shed some light about getting their NOA1.

I submitted mine on the 22nd of Aug. And USCIS just deposited my check yesterday (Oct 3rd). I still don't have a NOA1 yet , but I do have a case # from the image copy on the back of my check Wellsfargo scanned for online banking. :)

Just be patient.

Also, who ever checks your application. They can be having a good day and just approve everyone. Or they can have a bad day and just deny the visa. Least thats how I feel about applying for a visa at the Manila, US Embassy in the Philippines. Its a 50/50 hit no miss kinda thing. Some people are just lucky.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Out of the 6 "anomolies," it's probable that the 3 whose sent date and their NOA1 date are a day apart are either confused or are in posession of damning photos of USCIS adjudicators in compromising situations. Also, tonya & darrin don't have a timeline which makes me wonder where their information is coming from.

roxy & lito may also be confused, and might be listing their "sent" date and their "received by USCIS" date. That leaves 2 entries that are possibly legitimate: Wilaiwan & James (sent 9/10, NOA1 10/1) and Angela & Jeff (sent 9/19, NOA1 9/29).

Anyone who's listed here care to clarify? I'm very skeptical that any September CSC filers have received NOA1 yet, but if someone really has then it would kinda blow the lid off the "we process them in the order they're received" story.

Just to know they have it would ease my mind. No cashed check yet, no NOA1. You would think that this part would be the fastest part of the process.

I'm interested in that RFE... why would their petition have received anything like that sort of attention yet? :blink:

The Very Secret Diary of Legolas Son of Weenus - by Cassandra Claire

Day One: Went to Council of Elrond. Was prettiest person there. Agreed to follow some tiny little man to Mordor to throw ring into volcano. Very important mission - gold ring so tacky.

Day Six: Far too dark in Mines of Moria to brush hair properly. Am very afraid I am developing a tangle.

Orcs so silly.

Still the prettiest.

Day 35: Boromir dead. Very messy death, most unnecessary. Did get kissed by Aragorn as he expired. Does a guy have to get shot full of arrows around here to get any action? Boromir definitely not prettier than me. Cannot understand it. Am feeling a pout coming on.

Frodo off to Mordor with Sam. Tiny little men caring about each other, rather cute really.

Am quite sure Gimli fancies me. So unfair. He is waist height, so can see advantages there, but chunky braids and big helmet most off-putting. Foresee dark times ahead, very dark times.

Was doing a timeline search this afternoon for September CSC filers, and came across some surprising results. According to the timeline search, the following September CSC filers have received NOA1:

roxy & lito

I-129F Sent: 9/5

NOA1: 9/10

Wilaiwan & James

I-129F Sent: 9/10

NOA1: 10/1

Handan & Kenny

I-129F Sent: 9/11

NOA1: 9/12

tonya & darrin

I-129F Sent: 9/19

NOA1: 9/20

RFE: 9/26

Angela & Jeff

I-129F Sent: 9/19

NOA1: 9/29

Juliana & Brian

I-129F Sent: 9/25

NOA1: 9/26

Out of the 6 "anomolies," it's probable that the 3 whose sent date and their NOA1 date are a day apart are either confused or are in posession of damning photos of USCIS adjudicators in compromising situations. Also, tonya & darrin don't have a timeline which makes me wonder where their information is coming from.

My guess is they are putting the date the petition was received at the service center as the NOA1 date. A simple mistake, but unfortunately it screws of the VJ statistics.

Howdy all,

I mailed our package on 17 September, and just wanted to pass along the word that our check was cashed 05 October! WOO HOO! We are ON THE WAY AT LAST! Unfortunately I just see it as "check replacement doc" on my bank, so I don't have the nifty scanned image. I'm off to call the USCIS and see if they can tell me my case number!
