Was just laying in bed when I received a weird text. Was from USCIS saying there has been an update on my case. Jumped out of my bed and grabbed my laptop and went to the website and what did I see. My NOA2 has been issued. I am so happy and very surprised as well. I have been following what has been happening at the CSC and I really didn't think we will get approved until August. I am so happy and for all of you still waiting I hope you receive great news soon.

Very pleased for the OP or any fellow CSCer who gets there NOA2 in less than six month but proof indeed (assuming it's a "normal" case) that there appears to be no logic to this process that I can determine.

Mind you if I suddenly got an NOA2 in a short time scale i.e <6months then my leisurely emigration planning would be exposed somewhat :rofl:

Wow! Congratulations! I have been so discouraged the past few weeks with all the discussion of backlogs and delays. Reading your post gives me hope. Here's wishing you a speedy time with the rest of the process, too.

I'm still new to this. How did they text you? Did you fill out the extra form (I forgot) that notifies you when they receive your petition or was it something else?
