Today is 120 days and still no NOIR has been sent to me. I called and talked to a representative there, and she assured me that someone will contact me in 15 days....It would be a nice birthday gift if I could receive it by my birthday (Nov. 17th). Continue to pray for me. I got a letter from them in July it said that got it back from USCIS and that they are reviewing it and I should contact them in 120 days. The representative said she was sending an inquiry to the USCIS that was handling my review so maybe I will hear from them in 15days or sooner. Does anyone have any experience with this kind of treatment? Any advice is appreciated.

They tell you wait X days and when they call they will tell you tell wait Y days from that and they can tell you a new date again. Yes I have seen that behavior. Usually you are going to get answers when they are ready to give you answers. The call after X day is a delaying tactic. You can try to call your representive and ask them to inquire after your birthday.

This will not be over quickly. You will not enjoy this.
