Just got home and was hoping for NOA2 hard copy in my mailbox since today is 5 month deadline. Instead got an NOA with same content as email I received last Wednesday.

"This is to advise you that we have received the above application or petition back from the Department of State, along with their request that it be reviewed. We will notify you of any action we take on this case."

I feel like maybe they dropped the ball on my app and knew that they were not going to make the 5 month deadline. Thus, they sent this as a CYA. I will call, but have a feeling they will not tell me anything and ask me to wait another few weeks. Anyone else getting similar runaround?

OK so three of us (JamesandRosa, apeters, and me) on this thread who are at 5 months and have no decisions. There must be others not on this site who have similar NOA1 dates who are experiencing the same thing.

Clearly, they completely dropped the ball on early July filings considering some non-expedited August filers have decisions. This is so unfair. I hope they recognize this and expedite interviews once we receive approvals - whenever that happens. In the meantime, I am going to try and call TSC between meetings tomorrow although if it's a 2+hour hold time I won't be able to wait.

As a mid July filer, I totally agree with the unfairness here. It seems that Texas have the pile of I-130's upside down! Obviously, we are all pleased for the August people that have been approved, it's not their fault, but it does seem so very unfair that July filers in particular seem to be the ones suffering. I do believe though, that TSC ARE working their butts off now after months of nothing from CSC, and we will ALL be approved well before Christmas. good.gif

That's what I'm hoping for! If I can ring in the New Year knowing that I've been approved then it will be a fantastic start to 2011...and if not then I'll probably sit around crying and eating ice cream.

I will try to stay positive, though! (emphasis on "try")
