Unfortunately guys I think we were all very very spoiled by seeing a few early approvals. We should be more realistic here and expect a 5 month wait period.. It has already been a month since my NOA1

Sent our petition on the last day of October with USPS and it arrived on 1st Nov! (according to USPS) so I guess that makes us November filers! didn't see a topic for November yet (I did try searchi

Holy #######!!! Here I was lamenting how I hadn't received a NOA2 yet despite my NOA1 being Nov 5th, and I just received a letter in mail saying that NVC has received and sent out my approved petition as of Dec 9th!!! Woooohoo! That means it is probably reaching Mumbai today! Amazing - my online status as well as the USCIS phone line says my petition is still in initial review with the last update Nov 7th, haha.

Never heard of that happening before but congratulations!

I am so new I cant understand the lingo lol. recieved our petition on the 19th... Alien regestration number has been changed. Now I'm not sure exactly what the NOA2 is and what it will tell me...How long should it take to see a decision?

The NOA2 IS THE APPROVAL letter you have to fill up your time line and also keep on checking the status of your case on the uscis.gov ,create an account and click yes on email and phone notification.

Kay and Jay ....so We should see a NOA2 in aprox 30 days from NOA1?

not really it could be sooner or later than 30 days but since your alien number is changed you could get the good news anytime soon.

Yeah, we are in the same situation. We got an SRC # with the hard copy NOA1 but no "A" number. I wonder why?

Wow, congratulations! I can't even imagine what a pleasant surprise that must have been. Did you call to figure out why you never received any kind of notification regarding your NOA2? Now I'm hoping the same thing will happen to me :)

Hey all, I need some advice. On Friday I'm leaving to visit my fiance for a couple of weeks. Since we haven't received an NOA2 when seemingly most others from the CSC have, I'm suspecting that we'll get an RFE. I'm worried I might get it while I'm gone and won't be able to check the hard copy to see what it's for. I'm considering doing a change of address to my parent's place for the weeks I'm gone, that way should we get one my parents could check and let me know what it is. Then if it's something I need from him, I could just bring it back with me instead of losing time with the slow and sometimes unpredictable mail service there. What do you guys think? Is it silly to change my address for such a short time period when I have no idea if I'll even hear anything while I'm gone? Could it cause me problems in the future? Am I completely overanalyzing and overthinking this process, as is so easy to do??

Congrats! It looks like you two will be together in no time smile.png

Thanks! I called them today and the officer said the order to send the NOA2 had been given, but it wasn't logged as sent. He gave the order again, so I can send the copy to my fiancee for "Evidence of approved I-129F" (stated in DS-160 confirmation page).

He also said "Congratulations! Your petition has the fastest approval time he has ever seen" dancin5hr.gif

Hope you are on the same track as me - Good Luck! smile.png
