Read through some of the threads on this site...and pay special attention to people's timelines. There are currently people who have been waiting four months for their NOA1!!! This delay is due to the flood of petitions that were mailed to USCIS in July 2007. USCIS maintains a website ( uscis.gov ) that you can visit to learn of their published processing times. Long story short: Your waiting is not uncommon.

Its also due to bureaucracy and being under staffed. Also the web sites don't always reflect accurate information. I am not disagreeing with you just adding to what you said.

Additionally, I have read here of some people who have sent their I-129F along with their I-130. Also, I've read somewhere here where people have gone ahead and mailed their I-129F WITHOUT their I-130 receipt notice. I don't bother much with that since I am petitioning only I-130 for the immigrant visa. Do a little more digging in here at VJ, you'll find a wealth of information. Good luck.

thanks for ur reply.

but im just wondering how long it will take for the whole process if it takes 4 or 5 months to receive the NOA1!!!!

the lawyer adviced my husband to file the I-129 after receing the receipt if he wants me to get there asap and he said that it takes 4 to 5months maximum after filing the I-129,so,we were planning to have our wedding party there this summer,but obviously,we gotta wait longer than what we were expecting.it is just so hard for me to be physically separated from him.
