My fiance received I-797 today. Isa that the NOA2? I'm so afraid it's not because they said it'll take 5 months and it's only been like 1 1/2 months.

If it is can someone please tell me whats the next step? I'm scared that i wont have time to complete the requirements :(

Hey don't question it. Grab the prize and go.

Sometimes adjudicators see a disadvanteged person in some way none of us see and give you a priority like that. I heard of one case where a Hatian was approved in one month during the post earthquake period in Haiti when they were doing all those TPS petitions that slowed the rest of us to a crawl. They never asked for a preference; just got one anyway.
