I see the graph there of what's the average wait time but I'd like to hear from the members themselves and know what's the common reason why such delay.

Our I-129F was approved by the USCIS in three-and-a-half months.

We received our visa in a total of five months and a few days.

Yap, our I-129 f got approved also in about 3 mons and 13 days..had I not rescheduled my interview from September to October..from NOA1 to approval would just took us 5 months too..tho I think this typical if and when you don't have RFE's

why???? Did u receive a RFE?

[The Nature Boy 4,224]

I think 3 months is the minimum most people would get a NOA2. and the times for the Visa are a little long. It took me a little over 3 months to get Visa (which is quick) and if everything goes ok we will have Visa in a little under 5 months.

I think the Average Noa 2 is more around 4-4.5 months and the average Visa is 6.5-7.5 months. I jut got lucky and caught VSC in an up cycle.Of course some go faster and some go way longer.

I have heard some people say 1 month from Noa1-Noa2 but I am skeptical of that .

[Messybrownhair 251]

I got my noa2 in a month but we were not prepared (we were expecting 5 months!) so i postponed my interview for a few months until everything was prepared. Overall, i completed k1 and aos in about a year (june 2010-june 2011) which is not bad i think.

No RFE or whatsoever.

Checking our status almost everyday since i created the account in uscis site.

our case was received june 6 and was touched june 14. no updates from then on.

we have lawyer processed the application. our petition even includes

>statements from me, from my fiance, from my fiance's 2 friends, and from his brother attesting and be happy in our relationship. (all notarized)

>we have bunch of pictures together when we met last february here.

>i even included emails between me and my fiance's brother, niece and sister-in-law.

>phone record of my fiance showing we call each other everyday

>screen shots of Magic jack call logs

>our birthcerts

>my cenomar

>colored copies of all the boarding passes and itineraries

> couple of YM conversations

>couple of emails

>copies of the cards and letters my fiance send me

>among others

me and my fiance are already 1 year and 2 months together and counting..

sometimes me and my fiance ask each other why it took the uscis too long to approve our petition when others are getting theirs in few months and some even have RFE when ours are almost complete. and we dont have an answer coz thats how it is.

hoping approval will come this week, if not, then next week, or next next week.. or maybe next month.. hahaha

NOA2 was about five and a half months.

wow my gawd...that's really long. good thing you gotta magicjack. it's a God sent invention.

If you look at the timelines database on this site you will see that the last NOA2 for Phils / All Services Centers is 10-21 with an NOA1 date of 6-14, about 4 months. You can look at a lot of the dates and see about what the timelines are running. If you have an NOA1 of 6-14, you are "in the window" of when you might get an NOA2, but there are also recent data points of 4-14 and 9-27, which is 5+ months.

There is no set schedule and they are not all done in order received for a large number of reasons.

Their current target goal is 5 months for the average. Some will be over, some will be under.

Best of luck.

NOA2 95 days from your NOA1 date.

Your interview took 153 days from your I-129F NOA1 date.

10 more days until the visa was in her hand.

We did have an RFE also. So still under 6 months to get the K1 visa, even with an RFE.
