Yes I agree too. It reminds me of what happened with October and November. Once they had processed about half of October some Novembers began to receive adjudication. Hopefully we'll see more January approvals soon.

Yes. My day was exhausting and to see that update made it so much better. Even though the 8.7 months thing made no logical sense..Just the fact that it happened was enough to spook us all. I think it caused us to think about the horrible what ifs? ha. But I think we'll be even happier in a few weeks. Praying and hoping for it. The days do seem longer as we approach the time when adjudication is possible. Certainly makes you think about it more...

I originally noticed someone had updated his profile status. Then I checked his timeline and he was a January filer. The first one of us to receive approval. Immigration Timelines - Processing Status - Igor's List....

Also, if we can get some more December approvals through VSC, I'm thinking January approvals will start rolling in pretty consistently about the second or third week of May. At that point, it probably could happen at any time for January filers...but there still needs to be more December approvals. When the number of unapproved K1s at VSC hits about 25-30 for December I'm guessing we'll be almost completely in January mode with only a few Decembers awaiting adjudication (there always seems to be a few timelines that are never updatd after NOA2) But there needs to be more December approvals. Although this approval is a welcome relief after all the craziness earlier in the week.

This is very funny to me!!! Because my NOA1 text and email came after midnight too. Since then, I have received various msgs like this at unusual times. I have nearly killed myself, jumping from the bed, half asleep, trying to get to my phone and see what it is and hoping its from the USCIS; when usually, I would just ignore it. But not now, because we are wanting this to come so much... So I am with you and understand completely... Good Luck To You All...

You know I saw on my phone yesterday that I had a new email message and when I looked at the inbox I saw USCIS! My heart skipped a beat and I was instantly excited until I realized it was an email notifying me of my change of password for their site. wacko.gif duh..oh well LOL
