Hi all. We sent off our application May 24th Friday but with d Holiday tomorrow I guess we will receive notification text/email within the week. I hope we fall under May filers because I like the positive attitude of the people here. I have a feeling that May/June filers will get NOA2 in less than 4 months. Let's keep our hopes positive. Good Luck all.

Yes we are. My timeline keeps getting time shaved off it. Good sign dancin5hr.gif

I'm going to start preparing paperwork for the next packet in August so we can be ready for NOA2 and beyond.

Goodluck to all May filers. May your wait be short and your lives happier goofy.gif

I agree, that is a little odd. It definitely doesn't seem like first come first served! Aside from an expedite I'm unaware of any other considerations that might get someone to the front of the line, but then I'm not very familiar with the inside workings of USCIS - oh well, I'm happy for them!!!
