I just called USCIS to ask them about their progress, and was told by a Tier 2 that they were processing JULY 2nd, which is NOT when I applied!

I am an August 6th filer through VSC, and while on the phone, I received a text notification & email! Once I hung up with the USCIS officer, I logged on to check my case status, and BOOM! Approved on February 19, 2013!!! 197 days!!!

So strange! Overjoyed, nonetheless! I hope everyone else is one step closer to receiving their NOA2s! :dance:

Congratulations. The same thing happened to us on Feb 14 :thumbs:

I wonder why it happened that way? The officer was just telling me to wait another month, and that they were processing a totally different date from mine, but then VIOLA! I got my approval! Seems like they might be giving people the wrong information... :blink:

Congratulations! That was funny. Instant answer for you. :) maybe I should also call and then when I hung up I'll have NOA2... I'm just kidding. :D I am happy for both of you. Good luck on the next step... :)
