National Benefits Center - Anybody from 2013 approved yet?

[GodisMyGuide 36]

I filed my I-130 for my Dominican husband who's living abroad back in March, was just curious if anybody else who's been stuck at the National Benefits Center has been approved yet?

Thanks!

I filed in February 2013 and I got stuck at NBC for reasons still unknown to me. Things finally took off this September and now I'm already dealing with NVC. Be patient and on the lookout, each case is different from the other.

MSC - stands for Missouri Service Center (MSC, transitioned to NBC). I had my USCIS number assigned to a MSC # since it was initially sent to the NBC. However, my file was later transfered to a local office for processing.

I am February/March and still in initial Review, for what I heard is taking 8 Months for the Approval and from there things start rolling.

Hi everyone,

Most of the posts on the is topic seem to be done by a lot of individuals that are fairly new to the site, so I gathered a few links for you all that may help you out with gauging what is going on with your packets. The links below are for forums that have been started for individuals who have filled for each month this year, along with an interesting set of posts regarding the reason for the delays. I hope that you can find these links useful. I am a Feb Filer and staying informed, though stress, really seems to make me feel better (especially since you can't seem to get any concrete information from USCIS).
