ehh.. i dont want you to stress out about my sheet entry.. not right now at least.

there are two august entries who have been granted their case numbers within ~ 10 days of their case being received at the NVC correct ?

i am guessing that they were both expedites and/or dcf filings.

Im one of those two and im not an expedite or dcf.

So my fellow Augustines that have been left behind. I've been calling USCIS to bug them regularly. On the USCIS website under average processing times for the California Service Center it is showing in the graphical bar 7 months from NOA1 to approval. Also if you search for the table it says that CSC is currently working on I-130's for a U.S. citizen filing for a spouse from August 1st, 2013. This was reported as of January 31, 2014. So let's see it's been almost 2 months since then and they haven't been able to get to our case (NOA1 August 6, 2013). I spoke with tier 1 initially and he tried to tell me they were being processed in the order that they were received, I actually laughed at him a little bit over the phone. After I explained this to him he told me he couldn't put in a service request because his system would not allow him to do it because the date posted on the website was not past our date yet (by 5 measly days). I asked him if it was worth my speaking with a tier 2 about and he said no they wouldn't be able to do anything, so I hung up. Then I picked up the phone and called right back and spoke with a tier 2 and they put in a service request right away after I explained how what they were posting on the website was incorrect! And that it couldn't possibly take 2 months to process 5 days worth of applications. They told me that I should hear something back in a few weeks which will be the first week of April.

Good luck to you all, hopefully they'll remember to approve the rest of us soon!
