How long does it take for USCIS to start processing your I 129f case?
Our case was received at California service center April 22,2021. We received our receipt May 5,2021. Today, our case status still says received. I have not heard anything from them, even when I notified them of me moving. In the email, after notifying them of me moving, it said I should expect a reply September 14,2021; I never got a reply. I've tried to inquiry about our case, but it say that our case is currently within the posted processing times and I can not create an inquiry at this time. I've also been checking the processing times regularly. Any time the processing times got closer to our receipt date to inquiry, it would go back a month or two before the date. I just want to see if this is normal to not hear anything besides our case being received for the 9 months we have been waiting?

Yuhhp. I’m April 19th and we are still in received status since then. Our first inquiry was answered with a “We have no timeframe available for when your specific case will be adjudicated.” So all we can do is wait. They are currently working on February and March cases, and there are well over 1200 cases in March alone. There are only a handful of agents and 1 processing center working on i129F’s.

Thanks for your response. I'm glad to know that their are others still waiting like us. My fiancé has friends who went through the same process as us years ago. They thought I should of heard something by now and got me more worried than I was before. So I just figured it didn't hurt to ask and see others responses on here.

nothing is wrong, there is huge backlog this year, unfortunately our bad luck. there are lots of k1 cases and they work very slowly on it. also they changed timeframe from 9 to 12 months😭😭😭😭

Join the K1Visa Journey group on Facebook. Or use the USCIS case tracker app and use the search range to get your own calculations on the cases
