Which, of course, means they give themselves another 1.5 months extra (as they post processing times that late). Gotta love the ways of the government agencies.

Yup! You nailed it.

When you get a chance, fill in your timeline. The more people who complete a timeline, the stronger the data is here.

Thank you! So, what are we drinking? I think the next round should be on TSC!

I'd like to send them an invoice for the extra expense I will incur during the next few months, which is entirely attributable to the extended wait times that we're experiencing. LOL :rofl:

Hi everyone - I have mostly been a reader and a lurker on here for the last few months. Just wanted to let everyone know that our file was approved today. My NOA1 date was Sept. 2, so approval came 193 days after filing.

I am just glad and grateful this part of the process is over. Now time to get ready for the next phase.

Agreed! Only it would take them so long to process your payment that it would be worth nothing by the time you were paid. Since TSC doesn't seem to have done much since Monday, does that mean they are out buying our drinks?

Yeah, it sucks. We sat and watched pretty much the entire month of August being processed, including those with the same NOA1 date as ours and we're hanging out with you guys on the September thread now because we are still waiting for our approval. Almost 7 and a half months now.

Do you think the quick, random approvals it may have something to do with where the petitioner works? So say if the petitioner works in the US government do you think they would get priority? (i.e., since they already had a background check, they're part of the "system,' etc.)... I wonder what little things have an affect in the random spikes of quick approvals...

My fiancé (the petitioner) works for the government so that is definitely not a factor. What exactly do you consider "quick approvals"?
