I can't imagine how much harder it would be factoring in a child, I hope yours all gets approved fast because it'd be horrible to miss out on things due to this process.

But fingers crossed this week has a lot more approvals and soon it will be onto us!

Im so scared of the interview stage for him because I feel like we could go through all this just to hear "denied" .. I honestly don't know what I'd do with myself lol but I'm keeping fingerscross that none of us will have to experience that

I hope we have because this waiting is driving me crazy! Everytime I look on the recent approval list, it's barely being updated so I'm wondering if these June, July & August filers not updating their timelines or if they really haven't gotten their NOA2.. Grr

The last week hasn't been stellar for NOA-2 out of TSC. May have to do with the bad weather in Texas. Hopefully next week will pick up again.

And I am praying DACA will be delayed as much as possible...

Once Igor's list hits 80% ish it seems a month is finished more or less...not everyone updates.

There are a few June filers left, which are at 8 +, a number of July filers, probably around 30ish on Igor's list and around 60% of the August filers. I think they will take most of March and a bit of April to finish those up before moving into September proper. So maybe May-ish for October, June-ish for November and July-ish for December.

Sadly, some people end up being the unlucky ones that are in later batches - hence it is conceivable that people wait additional months...

I'm hoping they do pick up because I still can't wrap my head around how fast CSC can get through these cases & have their fiancé here in 3-4 months from start to finish, but TSC is moving like a turtle. I'm aware of the thousands of applications they have to process but jeez.. If CSC can do it then why can't TSC? And besides if they're so backlog then I cant understand why they don't just do transfers... It would benefit us all since we'd be approved a lot faster at CSC while TSC has less cases to handle... Win win lol but apparently not

Timeline

The last week hasn't been stellar for NOA-2 out of TSC. May have to do with the bad weather in Texas. Hopefully next week will pick up again.

And I am praying DACA will be delayed as much as possible...

Once Igor's list hits 80% ish it seems a month is finished more or less...not everyone updates.

There are a few June filers left, which are at 8 +, a number of July filers, probably around 30ish on Igor's list and around 60% of the August filers. I think they will take most of March and a bit of April to finish those up before moving into September proper. So maybe May-ish for October, June-ish for November and July-ish for December.

Sadly, some people end up being the unlucky ones that are in later batches - hence it is conceivable that people wait additional months...

Well, I already have the forecast for Dallas on my phone...

I hope they don't close at wendsday, the other days they should be at the office (I don't want say at work).
