Congrats! Also welcome to BA (again, I guess). I'm really curious, do the "CCC" numbers (see http://www.visajourney.com/content/uscis-receipt-number) on your Receipt Number seem to be the working day

Congrats, patnjac! Like you said, this will be a long journey but at least you've started it! Here's hoping there are no RFEs for you or anyone else on this thread!

It is harder than I thought too... our son is 17 months now, he does not see it too much so far. At least we have this forum... really it helps to see other people going through the same process...

Hi everyone!

I am an April filer too (NOA1 04/04). I just submitted a case inquiry today since the 5 month mark just passed but I got depressed when the confirmation screen said they would get back to me by the end of the month...
I was at the Nebraska Service Center but was transfered to California on August 15th. Does that transfer add any delay? I know some February filers got transfered too but couldn't find if that changed their processing time...

Thanks for your replies!

What do you mean the confirmation screen? You can submit a case inquiry online? Honestly I have no idea if it changed the process time for NSC... I would hope it shortens it right?

Here is the link:

(Sympa de retrouver des francophones :) çà remonte le moral!)

BTW I just called USCIS to have more info and they just confirmed what you said: the transfer is meant to speed up the process.
