    The Nature Boy got a reaction from Hope15 in Insight into USICS Service Center   
    I have a contact who works at VSC. I asked them about why the sudden explosion of approvals of K-1 visa's.
    1. They were behind on K's and reassigned some people to start knocking them out. Also they were understaffed and just added about 40 positions to get the allocation of people per work load corrected.
    2. What typicaly happens at the service centers, is that the Visa's that are the most time senstive and generate the highest revenue get the most attention. So if the H-1b's wich are more time senstive and generate much more revnue get behind, people get pulled off the K's. Then when they get ahead they will catch up on the lower priority Visa's like K's.
    This is why you see the big cycle in processing times. It appears VSC is running 90-100 days average right now. as they have hired people and reassigned people to work on k Visa. For all of you waiting on NOA2 I hope the trend keeps up. I know how it feels to have gotten you NOA1 and settle in for the long unknown wait.

    I wish i could... You don't have much longer. They knew I had a K-1 going thru there and made it quite clear they would not even give a hint about a specific case. I had to wait my full 8 days from NOA1 to NOA 2 like everyone else.

    The Nature Boy got a reaction from bahaynamin in Experimental Drug Use :(   
    So what kind of other questionnaire did he fill out were he admitted it ? I would advise anyone anywhere who did something like that when they were young to never ever admit it ever, on any document --immigration or otherwise. In my opinion it's irrlevant to anything and what he did in the past is nobody's biz.
    When I joined the army years ago, it was standard to ask recruits if they had ever smoked weed or used drugs etc. I think they used that question to rule out the people that said yes, for having bad judgement.

    The Nature Boy got a reaction from missicy in I got a visa a month ago but I'm still stuck here, help!   
    I don't really understand the big issue. If he is active duty Military, in many units he is always subject to deployment.. You need to go on and marry him as soon as you get there and start AOS procedure. If he gets deployed, you could come back, or stay there with his family.. At least it would be done and your AOS would be done. When he got back you could fly back to meet him and would not have to worry about Visa expiring etc.
    You don't really have a Visa issue, sounds like you have a fiancee dragging his feet issue.
