I-130 November Filers

I think they are processing July, August petitions now. They really say February because they don't want petitioners to flood them with telephone calls.

Oh ok, when I sign in to check my case status, it still says 26/11/13 - so it hasn't even been looked at since they received it.

[Ingrid28 69]

Mine still says the 12/11 too but I still check everyday, hoping for a miracle.

I am wondering if the new processing time will be posted this week, so tired of waiting arrrr! almost at the four (4) months margin, sighhhhhh .

I could jump for joy right now. I've received my I-797 notice today, actually it is dated Feb 8, 2014...Nov. 15, 2013 filer here. Is this the same as NOA2? what do you think is the next step that I should prepare after this? Hope everybody have received their I-797 also. Goodluck to all of us here.

Does it say you were approved? If so....congrats!

[mbkulafu 3]

Hi Angeldaemon! Yes it is. First sentence, it says "The above petition has been approved". If I got mine this week, for sure the other Nov filers too will get theirs. Let's cross our fingers.

Congrats!

However I recall seeing someone saying Philippines is on some kind of expedite list due to the super typhoon last year, so I wouldn't hold my breath for those of us with spouses not from the Philippines.

Thanks Casualsurfer! That is the case before I believe, when the Philippines was heavily hit by the super typhoon earlier this year. But not so sure right now how it goes for them, as my wife although originally from the Philippines, but her primary residence for the last 10 years has been in Saudi Arabia and her embassy for interview most likely in Jeddah. So I guess, I don't exactly fall into that expedited petitions category. But I do hope that the rest of the November filers should get their NOA2 hopefully within this month. Maybe it's case to case basis and also it depends on the service center you have.

Congrats!

That would be nice if it did work out that way but nonetheless, you are approved! Woot! I think you can read the guides for NVC process. Get your stuff ready while you wait for your case number.

[Cathymac 60]

It seems as if TSC petitioners for November 2013 will hear something between March to April based on the timelines, I really hope we all will hear something soon.

What about nebraska? Any nov filers at nebraska? When you look at their timelines it's ALL over the place, like July/August/ even later! (even some November filers not from Philippines ..) I don't know how they can say they do them as they receive them...

I filed late Nov and PD is Dec 5 at Nebraska.
