To all those waiting for USCIS approval, has anyone have any ideas as to why this whole process seems to have ground to a halt lately. I watched Igor'd stats seemingly fly by for April, but then i noticed a lot of RFE's for May applicants, and now almost no June applicants have been done (so far). Igor says that they are processing for the 14th of June. I just don't see it. I know that all of this info is based on what us members provide, but looking at the statistics on the different pages there is a lot of conflicting info. I know i am impatient that is just me. I just want to know why it all slowed down so much

The average for noa2 approvals is 5 months.. :( Unfortunately.... sometimes you see a one month approval and sometimes its much longer but if you just received your noa1 in July then you just have to see what happens.. I do know that's difficult you can call them and see where it is if they are working on it or not but just be strong during this time and before you know it you will be thru this whole process and the interview date will be here. Wishing you luck and speed!!!

If you notice on the stats, there typically is a slow down beginning this time of year. We have alot of holidays coming up. I doubt it is going to get any better soon.

7/15/11 Sent K1 Petition to Lockbox

8/10/11 STILL NO NOA1!

8/12/11 Called USCIS to get receipt number-NOA1 will be resent

8/16/11 Received NOA1 with date of 7/20/11

1/3/12 NOA2!!!

1/12/12 Got email notice we are through the NVC.
