Hiya guys. I just got card production ordered email this morning. We sent off hubby's forms 5/22, got NOA1 dated 5/26, and had biometrics on 7/1. Once we could access online case status, it always said they received the application on 6/3. Not sure what accounts for that. Anyway, yay. That's 66 days from package sent to card production ordered. We've been incredibly lucky with our USCIS processing times.

This is really fast. You are very lucky. Even people submitted in early May have not heard much

I'm so happy for all these May approvals. Hopefully VSC will also start cranking them out in the next few weeks or so. Hey ... we need to update the timeline! If you see this and you have an update, please do it individually ... if not then I'll do it when I get home from work tonight. It'll be good to see some 'approved' dates in that last column!

Yeah, I remember you from K1 and AOS too! VisaJourney is so nice like that. I suppose I'll be seeing you next year in the citizenship forum.

congrats!! Our dates are pretty much exactly the same, and when I could finally see my online info it said recieved 6/3 aswell which was so untrue! my only different with dates with the biometrics due to mine being cancelled but yeah the other dates are the same, so it will be interesting to see what happens for me.

I was expecting hubby's approval in another couple weeks, judging by other recent CSC timelines. It looks like we did get scheduled for biometrics pretty quickly, which probably helped. Anyway, I definitely expect to see everyone else here rolling in in the next few weeks.

BTW, received mailed notice today that has 7/24 as decision date.
