Reehon - I never got an approval notice for the expedite itself. However 5 days after I filed the expedite I received email from USCIS saying my I-129F is approved. I still have not received the hardcopy of the notice in mail. It generally takes 7-10 days from the date of approval to receive the notice in mail. Hope that helps.

You should have received it by now. I would call them, or call NVC to see if they received your case yet. Mine wasn't expedited, but from approval to received notice in mail took 1 week. Hope that helps

All i got an e-mail that my expedite is approved and we will review your case and mail shortely our decision.

But i'm saying that Since July4th, never got an e-mail or anything in the mail.

I called USCIS today and they say that in the system, it still says that case received and pending. IS THAT POSSIBLE TO HAVE THAT?

Then the lady told me that wait for onr month from the date of the e-mail to see and call us again?HUH???

I' saying, it its approved, why the delay???

THIS MADNESSSSSSSSSSSSS seems to never go away?

Any body have any suggestions????

Thanks

It is possible that they approved the reason for expediate but the case is still waiting approval. It could happen like this, it happened before where the VJ member when to a face to face interview and the officer told him ok your case is approved. But he is yet to get a paper physical approval from USCIS, and he been getting the run around since. I am sorry this is happening, maybe you can contact your congressman??

Good Luck!
