well, it depends how you look at it: for me every day that passes makes me one step closer to the finale, that's why I am positive and cheerful. And when it turns 4 months, it will be even better, it

@skynaut, Thank you (F)

@Timol, TSC had received and processed very few transfers (just double digit) in the prior months. So, the recent bulk transfer to TSC is good in the sense there is a high chance to review the transferred cases immediately. Since data is not very clear, I don't have an estimate. But what I feel is a very high possibility for a mass approval before the end of this month, and that too in random order (Based on VSC experience, applicants are lucky if their petitions go to an officer who does speedy approval, eventhough the priority date is the first queueing preference).

So, hang on there, next 2 weeks are the real patience test :)

I agree that approval will come in random order. What do you think about other messages which some people got? I mean about "was transferred and now in the office". Is it possible that they are transferring our petitions further to local offices?

So no TSC approvals today? Man this sucks!

I have a question. When you're counting how many days you've waited so far, do you count from the date on your NOA1, or from when USCIS received your package? I'm just preparing myself for when I can complain to USCIS about my over 5-month wait time.

If I count from when USCIS received it, in a week it will be 5 months. So sad. And I no everyone says that touches/no touches don't necessarily mean anything but I haven't been touched since 7/26! Not even for my TSC transfer! I didn't get an email nor text even though I am subscribed. :bonk:

USCIS

07/06/10: Package Sent to Chicago Lockbox

11/30/10: Touched! FINALLY

12/01/10: Touched, AGAIN!

12/02/10: Touched, YET AGAIN!

12/03/10: TOUCHED!

02/14/11:I-130 Approved Happy Valentines Day!

Case was approved in 212 days

NVC

02/18/11: Received NVC Case number

02/20/11: Optin email sent

02/25/11: AOS I-864 Emailed to NVC

03/02/11: IV Bill generated & Paid!

03/08/11: Optin Accepted

03/17/11: DS-260 completed

03/24/11: DS-260 Supporting Documents emailed

03/24/11: Emailed my I-864 AGAIN because NVC is saying they did not receive it.

04/08/11: NVC robot says they are "Awaiting my Biographic Data" which I assume means they reviewed my I-864

04/11/11: NVC is saying I am missing info, that I did not send in all my documents.

04.14.11: NVC is saying i never emailed anything. I contacted my senate office, who is getting things handled for me at NVC.

05.12.11: OMG SIF!

07.11.11-INTERVIEW DATE!
