I guess because no one really knows, it's just guess work based on others experience, especially as USCIS seems to have zero methodology to their processing. From my. "guess work" it's taking between 6-8, however a few are 9, to get approved.

Congrats to everyone who just got a transfer! You should receive three electronic notices. You can disregard the content of these; every transferred petition since March has received these same three

Just a follow up on Nobby7's post - For any of you that were transferred to the Nebraska service center, I took it upon myself (I like doing these kinds of analysis), I took this thread that Nobby7 me

So it seems that I lost the marathon indeed. Bowing out from the race and wishing that no one wins this darn race. I want everyone to loose really really fast. I just got the approval...I guess si

You are right and with this forum it makes it easier for us to vent our frustrations,these are some very agonizing waiting times.

Exactly, all I will say is try and be positive, calling a tier 2 seems to be a waste of time.

It seems (land only seems) that USCIS is getting better, and I would say the average wait time

would now be 7-8 months... Esp as they said they will try (try huh!) to get the time to 5 months by May, which would require clearing the backlog quickly!

I'm August 22nd and am MSC13917XXXXX

Based on the checks that I have just done, they are halfway through transferring the MSC13915XXXXXs

These things are not incremental (meaning, they are not all i-130 petitions - but rather different kinds of petitions).

Something tells me that August transfers will not kick off until at least the 27th of this month.

after the case got transferred, how long did it take for the hard copy to come in regular mail?

I am kind of curious as to where I got transferred because I did not get any email/ text notification. Only change I observed was online.

My case was transferred on 1/3/14 and I received my hard copy on 1/6/14. I called USCIS to learn of my case transfer and I never received an email or text notification.

Woohoo!!!! Just got this email message:

Application Type: I130 , IMMIGRANT PETITION FOR RELATIVE, FIANCE(E), OR ORPHAN

Your Case Status: Post Decision Activity

On January 8, 2014, we mailed you a notice that we have approved this I130 IMMIGRANT PETITION FOR RELATIVE, FIANCE(E), OR ORPHAN. Please follow any instructions on the notice. If you move before you receive the notice, call customer service at 1-800-375-5283.

Our receipt date was July 9, so that is just about 6 months exactly.

YAYYYYYYYY!!!

My husband is in Chile, and was planning to come here in about a month on a tourist visa (yes, while his application was still pending, because he hasn't seen me and the kids in 4 months).

Does anyone know how long post decision activity takes? The Chilean consulate is fairly efficient. If he does come on the tourist visa, can he just stay here and do the interview here?

Thanks!

Somehow my last comment didnt quote! Congrats from another gringa married to a chilean :) Do you have children together? If so, the embassy told me last week that you can apply for an expedite through the NVC process, essentially sending the case directly to the embassy!
