Hi all
Here is our group that is waiting, if I missed you let me know and tell us all where you are at in the process. I'm having trouble just setting back and waiting. Our agency does everything for you with the dossier, but I'm the type that likes doing something it keeps me calm. Well at least it helps.Here are the names this far: dana andie Tx jennifer dave & kymm mommy kim sunnysea drmalcolm trisha2 stacy monie angie kim0630 marjorie steffanie monielynn nicole1975 sheri el lauri denesha beth leilanis mom mysty jetgirl marshie cheri overflowing andi72 sandy sunnysea kenzseth angelle gayla

Hi,
We were hoping for March DTC, but I think it will be April. Our documents are in Washington, D.C. right now being authenticated. Hopefully by the first of next week our agency will have the completed dossier. Keeping my fingers crossed. |

Hi Dana,
Thanks so much for the update. I *hope* I am there in May, but it's looking sketchy. My SW and HS agency have been great, but I know that Immigration is going to be the hold-up. There's an online site you can check for each state, and last I checked, ours was still processing from October! ![]() Good luck to you all, though! Christina |

You can add us for May (hopefully
). We are waiting for our Home Study, and it should be done by next week. Then all we have to wait for is the I-171H.![]()

Christina, what is that website where you can check the progress for each CIS office? We are planning to be fingerprinted tomorrow in Boston. I recently read one poster here who got the I171H back in two weeks from Boston recently. Wouldn't that be nice!

I don't think that the site is updated very frequently - my sil is also going through the process in MO and her 171 came in 12 days, the website says that it is processing December...

Cindy, we are in the same boat
We had our last hs visit last week and the write up should be completed this week. We should be filing the i600a by the end of this week...yippee! Our agency has us wait to file until the hs is done.Stacy

Thanks for making the list! There are a lot of us, and as DTC gets closer I am getting more excited!
Off to the NYC consulate tomorrow to have everything (except I-171H) authenticated! Good luck with paperchasing everyone! |

Dana, thanks so much for your concern, but we are actually waiting on our homestudy (it's being reviewed by our placement agency) in order to send our I-600A in. So, thankfully, I've not been waiting since October--that site just lists Baltimore's office as "currently" processing forms from October 15th. I started another thread on this, actually, and several people assured me that the site is never up to date--phew!
Maybe we WILL be DTC sometime in May then! Christina |

Another little tidbit on the USCIS info website:
we are in Orlando, it said they were processing I-600A's from October 2005, when ours was APPROVED, we submitted it January 18, 2006, but they didn't have our HS report until 2/18, and we were approved on 2/22/06--so clearly the Orlando info was out of date--hope that gives you all waiting on your I-171H HOPE!!!!
Good Luck!! el |

The Newark info also says processing from Oct, and I know the wait is long, but not that long!
More like 8 wks, from what I hear. So those websites seem to be very outdated - thank goodness! ![]() Still hoping to be DTC in May before I turn 31! |

Stacy, that's great! There are quite a few that are at this exact stage.
Right now things can either speed up for us or slow down. We are going on vacation next week until the 22nd, our SW is going away starting the 22nd until the 27th. I talked to her today and she is going to try to get it done before we leave so that they can send me a copy to review when we get back. This way our agency can also send it to Philadelphia for our I-171H. If she doesn't get it done we may have to wait until the end of March to even review it. I'm keeping my fingers crossed, I'll know more tomorrow.

Our dossier is being mail to China in the next week to week and a half. I would think that would make us March DTC but our agency is saying that we would be April DTC. So I guess add me to the list as well.
Thanks! |
