Nebraska is a super slow service center. Might be that they're re-routing some petitions to even out the workload. Texas service center is not the fastest one but still faster than Nebraska, so be happy for small favours. ?

It is not abnormal

just make sure, your receipt number starts with SRC-that is the Texas Service Center?

Processing of I130 is a little strange compared to the I129F. there does not seem to be a correlation between location of the petitioner and the service center.

Spoiler

All of my paperwork was handled by the Texas Service Center and from the very beginning to the end (being approved for my GC) was only 4 months total. This was 2 years ago though so I am not sure about how many cases they have at this time. The Lady we had for our Interview was really lovely, very nice no evil looks and even laughed when she asked our wedding date and I said do you want me to answer this or him? I was the one going for the GC and when she said well he can answer because I am sure you know being the wife ...the truth was I was completely blank and had no idea because I was so nervous :oops:
