Yes, this seems like the smart thing to do. I emailed AILA about a month and a half ago when many of us were growing wise about NBC-Overland Park. I thought what I wrote explained the evidentiary ba

The purpose of a real timeline is to build up statistics data for more accurate approval estimates. So it would really help other members if more people filled theirs in.

Fellow May filers,

We just received our I-130 approval email! I had to reread it about ten times to believe it.

Though I did contact my senators, no expedite was made that I'm aware of. I've updated our timeline.

Best of luck to all of you, and I've greatly appreciated all the information I've gotten from this forum.

Congratulations Smitten! Looks like our I-130's were in the same batch.

I'll clarify to say we just got the NOA2 by e-mail a few hours ago, we haven't received our hard copies yet.

We never contacted our congressmen, never called the USCIS since we followed developments here and through various immigration lawyers on Facebook and blogs and figured it wouldn't be worth our time on hold to learn that we would have to wait anyway.

Looking forward to tracking the NVC process with you all :)

Then in theory, you should have an answer within 60 days of the transfer. I am still waiting on mine at, and am almost at 60 days.

In theory, we all should have been approved in five months, or so. I don't have any faith in anything the USICS says anymore, but I'll give them hell if we don't hear anything in another 30 days.

Hopefully you will hear something before your 60 days is up.

It's looking like the NVC/Embassy may be another six month adventure for all of us. What a flawed process this has turned into.

I also got my NOA2 just an hour ago by email after holding my breath for 220 days.

On December 30, 2013, we mailed you a notice that we have approved this I130 IMMIGRANT PETITION FOR RELATIVE, FIANCE(E), OR ORPHAN...

My I-130 application was straight forward, no expedite nor pleas to the senator. Seems like USCIS is making up for lost time during the end of year shutdown, which is quite surprising for once. Now I hope the USCIS adjudicators would finish up the rest of our May friends in the group in order and wish everyone a happy new years.

Where r all these approval coming from what service center?I was transfer to nsc

I was transferred there also.From the spreadsheet the approvals have coming from the NSC and CSC mainly.Not to say that is the trend though.At first from what I have gathered from talking with the USCIS agents is that they are working on late February cases.Thank God that is not the case.

5-25-2013: Sent I-130 package

5-31-2013:Received text and email of NOA1(now waiting for Hard copy of NOA1)

6-03-2013:NOA1 Hard copy came in the mail

11-20-2013: "Transferred to another USCIS office"

1-8-2014:Received text of NOA2 and email
