Some good news: The recent slow down in approval happened after I predicted it looking at the following.

All the months used to say 6 months. Now it's back to 5 months again. So there will be an uptick in approval soon. Though how big it will be remains to be seen. But it should give some good sense into those of us who are waiting.

So what are you saying Indigo? They will go crazy soon and a lot of approvals will be happening. i think so too because tey have a year end in september and they have to meet their goals. right now they are 4 months behind and can't let it get longer than that so i would assume that july they start getting really busy and approve a lot.

Okay I will be mister negative on this post. Or realist however you wish to see it.

I am not so sure we can put much faith in what their reported goals are or what their web site states with regards to time lines. Someone even posted that they received their NOA2 and the USCIS web site still didn't show them as being touched. What does that tell you? Government entities are renowned for always behind the production cure in my view. They are not know for their efficiency nor are they all that talented upon close review. Most are basically retired on the job.

I do however think all of the March NOA1 will be receiving NOA2 in July or RFE's as a worse case. Then that's only my opinion which doesn't count for much either.

As for me, I am just going to focus my time on what I can control, which is my paperwork that's needed to get through the NVC process. All the rest is just mental masturbation and will proceed as it may without any influence from me or my dire wishes otherwise.

I know when I look back at this whole lengthy process I will remember it similarly to my military experience. It will not be with fondness, although the final product will be its own reward...

Signed, Sealed and Delivered!

And yes, my paper Noa2 arrived 5 days after the notice date on the paper. But my online status is still initial review even now as I type this.

I don't know if USCIS is going to go crazy with their approvals anytime soon. It will be more of the same really looking at the graph below.

o85pix.png

The jump in 2009 was due to new hire over at USCIS, I think. Plus some process change with FBI name checking. No new hires this year so yeah. It will be dragging along from what I can gather. Oh and someone said USCIS's fiscal year ending is on September. Maybe they rushed cases to meet the quote. Then it continued to October. Then they're like f this. We're going back to processing the way we were. We'll pick up toward the end of next year. :P
