May 2011 Filers

[stronger 43]

YAY!!! I just tracked my application and it was delivered today to the Dallas, TX center. I'm guessing it will be processed this week. I'm praying that the the time between NOA1 and NOA2 is shorter than the average. Wouldn't that be nice?

I felt the samw way in the last few weeks it seemed to take forever to do the first step because first it took days to get all paperwork and proof needed, copied, and a few backups, pics copied etc... Then to get cash I needed took a few weeks to offset minor bills etc, then finally to postoffice and wait for the service I hired to double check (honestly not sure I needed after sites like thus and others gave me all the info I needed to do myself) and waited for noa1. Now I am here for the long wait and waiting at least with you guys.

I see your case is at the VSC. I pray that they'll pick up the pace. CSC has been really rockin' lately. Some things to check: your estimated date of adjudication will change periodically based upon other's timeline data, log into your USCIS account from time to time and see if the update date has changed at all (if so, you've been touched (feels good, doesn't it? )), you can also check where you rank on Igor's list (the more people that update their timeline with their NOA2's, the higher number you be on the list of people still waiting for theirs). I'm an April filer, by the way.

Welcome to the hurry-up-and-wait line. Be prepared for a midnight text message if you filled out the form for electronic notification. If you did, check the email they'll send to see what service center they forwarded your case to (it's based upon what state you live in).

April filer (April 28 notice date), very close to May anyway.

Good luck to all of us.

Waiting...seems like forever

I TOTALLY understand. I had to get my US Citizenship finished first. It was an 8 month process just for that. So I am a patient gal. I've got all my ducks in a row. Now I just follow instructions as given. I'm thankful for support forums like this one. It will be a huge help in the long run. Thanks!

Wow you really know your stuff! Yeah I wish and hoped I would get mistakenly sent out west lol. Thanks for all the tips. And you was very right to the other post info about the midnight text/email lol what's up with that , I was very caught off guard lol

It's probably called batch processing. My guess is that all the data sits in a que file somewhere and gets sent out at a certain time when internet usage is pretty low. As for me knowing my stuff, it comes with asking a lot of questions and a lot of research. You'll become familiar with it all soon, too.

I sent my I-129 on 5/5 and received e-mail notification of NOA1 on 5/13. Good luck to all!

If you filled out the form for electronic alerts, it will tell you in the email you receive. If not, then it depends upon what state you live in as to which service center it gets forwarded to. A list of states vs. what service center will take care of them can be found on this post.

The NOA1 we got doesn't have this information on it. So we'd been wondering. Thanks,Ray-J!

Yeah, I had to look at the email notification to see what service center my case was transfered to. I can't stress enough how important it is to create/update your timelines. It gives everyone an idea of when they might receive their NOA2. Lately, the CSC has been really cranking through their case load. When I filed last month, I was number 270-ish on Igor's list. As of right now, I'm at 216. This means that a lot of people have updated their timelines to reflect their approvals, since the list pulls the data directly from the VJ timeline data.
