Well it's back up but I got nada :( Figures, it's Saturday, right? Did get another touch yesterday on AOS after my transfer. I'll probably get a bunch in the next couple of days as it is received and all.

By the way, I edited the spreadsheet so now it is sorted by NOA issue date. I figure that makes it more accurate according to their records. There's a few of you who don't have that column filled in, so you're at the bottom.

Thanks panna.

DavChels...the spreadsheet looks good. I have one concern though, on my interview letter, they put my 'priority date' as the date they received my application [05/26]. So in case you are keeping track of how long its been, i think you should start counting from the day they received your application, and not the date you received your NOA.

Hmm, I guess I was just trying to see what would be the most consistent with them since, for example, if someone's packet was delivered on a weekend or Friday afternoon, chances are it wasn't worked on for a while. Anyone else have dates like that on your paperwork?

Congrats Mon Ami, I see you got your EAD approved on the 24th!

As a side note about the spreadsheet, I see there has been a lot of format changes (changing the row height, hiding columns, etc.) Please leave stuff like that as it is, because then everyone can see the information. Things like that are there for a reason: some may still want to see all of the dates, and if the rows are as they were then you can see more people at one time on the screen. Thanks!!

Hello everybody. I've been hovering and not posting for a while... :blush: very lazy.

Anyways... it really is great news things are moving along for everybody! YAY!

Speaking of the spreadsheet, Chelsea... would you be able to add a column before INTERVIEW DATE that says when the interview letter was received and/or mailed out/dated.

As days go by I see more people get their interview letters but it's hard to keep track who got theirs when.

What do you all think?
