diane79 Congrats Good to see that they are actually kicking some of us Midwesterners to CSC. I filed yesterday with the BLACK HOLE in TEXAS. Here's hoping for the same fate as you

Apparently, we got an email yesterday that our package was received and our application was transferred to California. I know this has been asked many times, but what is the average waiting time for NOA2 from NOA1? thanks and good luck to us! :)

CSC is pretty quick these days. They been giving approvals in a month. So your wait won't be that long. Congrats.

For California it is about 20 days until NOA2. You weren't transferred. Ohio is routed to USCIS CSC.

we were expecting NOA1 but we got a letter I-797C. should we consider it as NOA1 . this letter actually says our detail and nothing much. Should we get our NOA2 by the end of this month or 1st week of march?


please some one clarify NOA1 and I-797C letter.


Best wishes to all of you.

I must admit I am a little envious of ther CSCers because you all are in for a fairly short wait while the TSCers have to wait up to 200 days to NOA2. I got half the mind to withdraw the petition and change the address to my cousins Cali address and refile. I'm not going to do that though. However, if I get desperate....I'm all in for it!! lol anyhow,I just had to write something. I am praying for pateince.

Trust me. It pisses a lot of ppl off too. I wondered why I did not move to Cali when I had a chance.

Then again, life ain't fair! But I'll redeem my karma points some other way:)

I was looking into the January filers post and they literally waiting 3wks. It gets under my skin to think that we can't do anything about it! It's not right. All USCIS does is deny, deny, deny!!

Hey everyone! My fiancée (USC) and I are getting all our paperwork ready to file before the end of the month, so I guess this thread will be my "home". Sadly I think Florida goes through TSC, so I'm arming myself with patience.

We've been together for over 2 years (with multiple visits) and known each other online for 5, so this is a long time coming. We've gone back and forth over who should immigrate but we've finally made up our minds... Helps that same-sex marriage is now legal in Florida!

Anyway, I'm very glad I found this website, it has been super helpful in getting our application package ready and I'm sure it will continue to be helpful in the months to come.
