You'll probably have another year ahead of you before approval. You can see the current processing times here:

We filed in August 2011 and are still waiting to hear from the Vermont Service Center.

LPR processing takes I think up to 9-10 months for NOA2. I have been in this status before before I became USC

This is not the case anymore. Both the CSC and VSC have for the moment stopped approving F2A cases - CSC's processing time has been stuck at September 2011 for a while, VSC hasn't moved from January 2011 for about a year now. I hope we'll see tons of approvals in the coming months, but it is possible that the OP will have to wait for over a year for NOA2.

That means i have to still wait 6-7 months to get approval notice from USCIS right... Is there no chance to get approve early and also priority dates goes faster than its going right now? If you look at priority date for last couple of months, its been going like 1 month for every month. Is there no chance that NVC bring it up for 2 or 2.5 months from every month?

I applied at CSC and waiting for approval but when I check the processing time on USCIS site it says 13.1 month. I hope it'll not take that much long and approve the case as soon as possible..and also PD moves more days than it is moving right now..

as I applied to VSC May 2011 and still waiting for NOA 2.

my god help us now and my all brothers and sisters in same boat.
