Delays delays delays. NOA2 Nov 21 and still no NVC#. Tried my congressman and that POS is too busy to reply too me I guess. This country's govn SUCKS!! So frustrating.

Had to do an NVC research inquiry on where our approved packet is..blah blah blah. USCIS takes forever to approve them and then sits on them I guess.

NVC 1(603)334-0700

Delays delays delays. NOA2 Nov 21 and still no NVC#. Tried my congressman and that POS is too busy to reply too me I guess. This country's govn SUCKS!! So frustrating.

So now NVC is going to take forever...WTH is going on in this country right now? Delays at every turn and they wonder why people are getting upset. total Bwisit!!

Congratulations!what was ur NOA1 date?We are April filers,they received the respond for RFE 16th October,haven't gotten anything yet😓

Thanks. April 10 for NOA1. They have 60 days to start adjudication after receiving RFE response. If you don’t hear anything by 16 December then file an inquiry as they will be outside normal processing timeframe.

Just now, Tatiana&D.S. said:

OMG !  no RFE , no KISS OUR ASSETTS ? NO nothing? what about your case inquiry? let me be psyco and guess Nothing there either? U should call ur congressman....probably useless too BUT by us letting them ALL know ,the combined effort would go along way to somebody investigating as a whole this clearly flawed system.

 

I feel for you guyz , hang in there...thanks for making me feel better about my may 15...

We had an RFE...It's been 63 days since they received my answer...inquiry in process

I understand. I just gave an example that everything could have many and many variables to be studies, not that they really care. The fact that I lived in the US with j1 visa may have helped. Will never know I guess

Regardless congrats you guys

Not sure if it makes sense to me. My fiance never came to my country. He has two little kids and share custody, so it's very hard for him to come spend time with me, first cause it would cause drama (ex wife) and second cause he is extremely attached to the kids. Even tho it's our case, we got approved by USCIS without an RFE

As in all things it depends on each individual adjudicator and the strength of evidence included with the petition. I gave an example of a potential problem that could cause a NOID

I just booked a ticket to see my fiancee for Christmas.  Originally we had planned to be here and married before but that's pretty much not happening and I'm worried at this rate wouldn't be till February or March.  Can always cancel flight, right?  But tickets keep climbing.  Uhg.

I'm right there with you...Started this in April and still waiting after RFE...So I'm headed to see my Faye this weekend for 16 days in the Phil...I can't wait!

What is the difference between an RFE for needing more proof of the relationship and a notice of intent to deny for the same thing instead of an RFE?

 

Thoughts?

 

 

Usually a Letter of Intent to deny is only issued to people who haven't met in person in the last two years or the Background checks turned up disqualifying criminal records etc. Example; A woman comes to the US on a tourist visa with friends and meets Her Fiance while traveling coast to coast then returns home. The American Fiance then files a petition on her behalf. Although legal, it sends red flags to USCIS because the Citizen never visits Her country, which never creates the paper trail that they can follow. Passport stamps, ticket stubs, pictures etc, are the backbone of the petitions. If the Citizen never visits Her and her family then USCIS will doubt the legitimacy of the relationship because no effort was made to understand who she is and where she comes from.

Does that make sense?

I'm sorry to hear that, hopefully you get your NOA2 soon...What was the RFE about if I may ask? 

Sure no problem;

USCIS didn't like the fact that the Judge in my divorce case signed the "Journal Entry of Divorce" instead of the Decree. It was legal for him to do so because it was a default judgement. I had to submit a Certified Divorce Certificate from the state of Kansas in response. That was 62 days ago Sept 13.

Thank you. Really really at a low point right now. Luckily I have booked flights to be with my s/o for Christmas.

So sorry to hear this...Enjoy Christmas together and regroup. I hate to say it, but you may consider canceling the first petition and starting over. From what I understand, the Citizen only gets 2 chances for this type of visa and a denial will take 1 away. That's why they send a letter of intent instead of a denial. That way you can cancel it without penalty and resubmit. 

My Faye and I are still waiting for our NOA2 after an RFE 60 days ago. We may be in the same boat but not sure. We are day 219 ourselves NOA1 April 10. We have discussed contingencies and if we receive a letter of intent to deny I will cancel the K-1 and marry her in the Philippines, then apply the marriage visa route.

Mine took 2 weeks exactly after they recived my rfe. 

Uscis recived: oct:13 

noa2: october 27

hang in their is probaly coming 

When it comes to RFE's the fact is they have 60 days to review it once received. Telling people two weeks causes panic when it takes longer. For instance; I've heard this for the last 2 months+ and if the Adjudicator is a lazy, uncaring POS they can sit on it until the time runs out just because they can....In other words, anywhere from 2 weeks to 2 months depending on the Adjudicator. Don't mean to be a downer but those are the facts.

Enjoy your time with your love.  Yes, now the 20th, she will be leaving from Hong Kong after flying there on Saturday 11/18.  That flight was the Cheapest that I could find and gets her POE here in the NW.  I don't want to wait the extra time for her to fly down here to Portland.  Want to see her as soon as possible and we can see some of Seattle after she gets here.  Still waiting to hear your good news that you got your NOA2.

Thanks....can’t wait to report good news...I fly into Beijing, leave the 19th and arrive Phil on the 20th.
