How do you know that they will get there NOA2 after Nov 15?

You know, the reason coolguy thinks this is probably b/c most people haven't changed their service center in their timeline. The way a lot of us check what's going on with our service center is by che

Is this just for August filers or September filers too? I also filed 2 weeks ago to the Chicago Lockbox which was routed to the Vermont Service Center and now they sent the NOA1 saying they've transferred it to NBC...is this something I need to be worried about? My brain feels fried from the stress.

Don't worry about the transfers. Everyone is getting transferred all over the place. I called and spoke with a tier 2 rep and was told that this is happening to alleviate the workload of the other service centers who usually adjudicate I-130s. I know VSC is really behind and that's where my case was originally sent to, I'm hoping it is better that our cases have been transferred.

:bonk: that's the same case with us. The last updated date was on August 8, 2012 and it still on that INiTIAL PROCESSING circle. :-/ idiskike that circle so much. I check it every other day :wacko:

our papers are are at the California service center

. I should have filed earlier (may) because me and my friend were going to file together. She filed on May and got her noa2 by July!!! Just 2 months! And this is with them resending the mail because the first one got lost in The system! She already sent her response to that NOA2. I guess we filed at a high peak season. Meaning our processing timeline is much slower...

Anyone has an Idea if the fact that Obama' dream act affected our timeline? I mean, aren't immigrant officers much busier now because of that? In that case, we all have no choice but to wait out our 5 months processing period. It's just pass 2 months for me but trust me, if it comes pass to 5 months and there is no movement we are going to start making calls every day to get things done. :yes:

But OFCOURSE! Still being positive and hoping that circle moves to decision time! :dance::innocent:
