Well tomorrow is my anniversary, and the best present ever right now would be an email saying our I-130 was approve. It doesn't hurt to dream a little.

Many Congrats !!!!!!!

Have you updated the spreadsheet?

I have noticed that there are 29 approvals from NSC, but I can't tell who the most recent approvals are

Yes i think so...

formula is

Service center processing time + 1 month

and it becomes 6 months...i believe you should be able to file service request.after 23rd of june you were OK to file..

Did you try online e-request ?

OMG guys i swear God every time I come here I wish to hear that more people were approved....I can't believe that USCIS is treating real feelings like that. It's so frustrating! I just pray for all of us, that even with all this craziness going on, still believe and fight for love.

NOA1 on 1.2, got Request Of Evidence: a photocopy of the Household Registry reflecting the enter of the marriage? So do I need to get the whole household registry translated or just the page that shows my entry into marriage? Thx

Thanks for your encouraging words folks. It looks like a very steep hill even after the i130 is approved. Good luck to all.

Did USCIS notify you that they sent your file?

If not, your case might just still wait in Nebraska.

We were approved June 5th and they sent out our case June 13th only and NVC recieved it June 25th. Then they assigned a number to our case July 11th and we could pay AOS fee right away.

So it took more than a month after NOA2 to have a case assigned in NVC.

All this process is a joke.

We wrote a letter to Obama end of May. Not to ask about our case, but so that he changes the delay for family reunion for his citizens. Telling him if it is a question of budget we would be more than glad to pay a bit more to have the whole process completed in weeks not months. Because during the separation our spending is more than double (two households and air tickets)

We just received an answer, summarizing our immigration timeline... Things we already knew!

We are definitly going to write him again...waiting more than 6/7 months just to have some guys checked what you sent is ... There are no words for that.
