Agh! I know right!

I truly believe it is a hit and miss, our NO1 Date is July 2, and yet no NOA2 for us. A few members after us in July received theirs, and a few from August. These chaps are very lucky, congrats to them.

And for all the rest of us July filers who are waiting, I hope our turn comes very soon. I check the USCIS site for an update everyday, sometimes twice a day. It is just getting unbearable to wait.

All Other Pending Awaiting customer action Completions Receipts Month & Year

5660 884 3019 2014 Jul10

6099 605 1872 1626 Aug10

Guess Work: My place in the Que – July 23 NOA1 Filing Date

On August 30th VCS had 6099 Pending and 605 awaiting Customer Action:

6099 + 605 = 6,704.00

On July 30th VCS had received a total of 2014 July applications:

I filed on July 23, there are 16 working days ahead of me and 22 working days in the month:

2014 /22 = 91.54 (rcts per day)

91.54 * 16 = 1464.64 (number of files received ahead of mine)

6704 – 2014 = 4690 (number of files from previous month)

4690 + 1464 = 6154 (number of files ahead of July 23rd filers)

After reviewing official numbers from Excel download from USCIS VCS I 129 F files:

VCS processes on average 3000 (rough) I 129 F Files a month. Operating at above average for 2 months then slowing down for 2 to 3 months depending on the backlog.

Backlog runs at an average of 8000 files per month, triggering an increase in application completions of I 129 F files when that backlog hits over 9k

Current back log is 6704.00 (as of august anyway )

Because I still have to eat ( Lunch)

Last max backlog was in may which triggered a speed up from June 1 to July 30th.

The average processing during slow down periods is 1800 files (rough) and last for 2 to 3 months:

July 23rd filers:

6154 / 1800 = 3.41

3.5 is roughly how many months it will take to knock ours out (july 23rd), give or take a week cause im not 100 % sure how they process applications.

Slow downs in our processing correspond to speed ups in other files.

PS: this is not exact as i only did this for one date and one file type ( I 129 fs ). and there are other variables i didnt take into consideration but should be pretty close.
