Welcome and good luck!

If it's at all reassuring, 6 months is actually an improvement--up until that change, the "outside" date for processing times was at February 1, 2008 (which was almost 8 months by the time they changed it). You will likely have your petition approved before then!

Good luck on a speedy journey.

Life's just a crazy ride on a run away train

You can't go back for what you've missed

So make it count, hold on tight find a way to make it right

You only get one trip

So make it good, make it last 'cause it all flies by so fast

You only get one trip

I filed I-130 on June 17. I filed my I-129F on July 1st, I received NOA 1 for both but haven't received any NOA 2 for either one and yes I also filed my papers in Vermont. I don't know how the system works but I have noticed that some got their NOA 2 fpr those who have filed theirs after my dates. I guess some use the agency to get a head start and pay the neccessary fees.
