The information below came off of a March 1, 2003 NOA from TSC on a I-129 F
Petition.
Under new law, all fiance Petitions(I-129F) from all four BCIS service centers
will go direct to NVC in New Hampshire for 'processing'.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
----------
Here are some questions:
1, Which Petioners, if any, approved March 1 or after has called
NVC and confimed that NVC has received their Petition from service center???
2, Who knows for sure what actual processing will take place at NVC?
3. Will all security checks be done at NVC?
4. Will additional security checks be done when Petition reaches Embassy?
5. What security checks are done at service center?
6. What method will NVC use to send 'processed' Petitions to the
Embassy/Consulate?
The person who can authoritatively and knowledgeably answer all of the above
questions gets an all expense paid trip to the bowels of any BCIS service
center in the U. S. to closely observe its inner workings.
