My fiance first call was 2 weeks after 5 month of NOA1. After a lot of coaxing and pressure then he finally called lol. He wanted to wait it out since he was sure our turn would be soon. Doh :bonk: I on the other hand wanted him to call and found out about the hold up a week after NOA1. I was really surprised that we get approved the next day. I guess he was right :yes: I know it sucks to wait but from what I read USCIS won't let you file a service request so soon. I think wait few more days and start calling... be extra nice and I am sure they will let you file a service request. Good luck!!
