Just remember that 5 months is the average. Seems like there's a bit of a longer wait for NOA2's coming out of Vermont. Do yourself a favor and sign up for email updates - as soon as it's approved you'll get an email telling you! It's better than checking the site 100 times a day. :)

Also, the VJ timeline is not necessarily the most accurate estimate. It basically gives you an average based on people who have completed their timelines, and the length of time that it takes, so you'll always see it fluctuating.

Most of us VSC February filers are still waiting, with a few NOA2s starting to file in slowly. Come join us over in that thread, if you're interested, since I see you're a Feb-March straddler :)
