Hi, Starflyer 59. Just got the text; our card is in production. Strange, as when I called yesterday, the recording said it was still in Missouri. This comes as a relief, of course, but I feel bad for those who have been waiting even longer. I don't have a clue what the order is... maybe it was our local office? In any case, I really hope yours comes quickly!!! Our timelines are very similar, so it should be any day for you.

Fingers crossed, PinayCajun, my NOA1 is about 3 weeks after yours and we have the same processing office.

It says online that the New Orleans office are now processing December 2012 filers for I-485. So let's just hope that they will start processing January 2013 filers sooner or next month.

I know! It's been 8 weeks since they last updated it, but I have no idea how fast they are processing their files. Is it half a month in a month or less? Wonder when they will update their timeline next.

Awesome! Congratulations! I'm glad you all have been approved, and I hope we hear something soon as well. My case status still cannot be found on the site, and my local office time frame says November 20, 2012 right now (but I know those are not always reliable).

Great news - enjoy your 2 year vacation from USCIS! :-)

Ah, this seems like a thread for me to hang out in over the next few months: AOS filed dec '12, then RFE submitted mid-Jan '13. Tferred to NBC (so interview waived apparently), now waiting. Status: Initial review.

From this thread that sounds pretty normal for an NBC case.

So annoying the interview-waived cases take longer. Doubt that's what they intended when they changed the system last year. Pure speculation, but if I was an under-pressure local office and was told interview waivers go somewhere else, I'd be tempted to waive more than otherwise, right? :-)

Agreed. I hope you get your approval very soon!

Yay, they've updated. As of June 30th, they are processing January 11th. We're getting close!

Seems it takes them a month per month, so they should already be processing Feb. 20ish by now. Oh well, at least they made it to 2013!

I wouldn't focus on the processing times posted. Charlotte still says (Posted August 20) that as of June 30th, they were still working on December 30th. We filed Jan 25th, so I think they just do that to give themselves some breathing room. Hopefully it's not much longer for the remaining ones waiting!
