USCIS Acceptance Confirmation

[glenncams 7]

We just received an email confirming the acceptance of our K1 petition and case was routed to California Service Center for processing. In 7-10 days we're informed that we will receive an official Receipt Notice (Form I-797). Now, my question is how long will it take to receive a NOA1? Is it different from the said notice we are waiting? Thank you.

For the NOA-1:

That I-767 you will be getting in 7-10 is the NOA-1. This just means they have your case and are working on it.

For the NOA-2:

This is the actual acceptance of your petition.

As for how long it takes, it really depends.

Most people are getting theirs within a month. (Granted there are no RFE's of course.)

Ours took 26 days. October 1st NOA-1 to October 26th NOA-2.

Once you have your NOA-1 date you can update your timeline and it will give you an estimate of when you can expect your NOA-2.

How will I know the received date of our NOA 1?

The letter you get in the mail (I-767) will have that date on it.

I see. We're still waiting for that mail. All we received was an email and sms. Hopefully, we receive the mail sooner this week.?

Yeah the sms and email come instantly, the letter a week or so later. Snail mail and all!

^^^ Unless they get an RFE NOA. In that case, their petition-approval NOA would be their NOA-3.

I did say "granted there are no RFE's of course" in my post.

But yeah, your right.

You used that line in an entirely different context.

You used that line in an entirely different context.

I think you took the context wrong then.

I meant it for everything above where I mention it, which includes "This is the actual acceptance of your position".

I don't see how your nitpicking and assumptions about the way I format my posts are helping OP at all. Do you have any actual advice for them?

At the bottom of your timeline it tells u if u enter your NOA1 date it will estimate your approximate adjudication date.

This date is estimated not guaranteed and does not include RFEs

How will I know the received date of our NOA 1?

What date they emailed/texted you? It's usually the same date.

What gives? I pointed out a simple correction and now you are becoming uber defensive and making a mountain out of a molehill.

Your comment about RFE's clearly said that it would take longer to get a NOA-2 if they received an RFE. Nowhere did you say anything about a NOA-3. This is not an assumption, it's a fact.

My advice to them? It's the same advice I have for you: pay attention to details.

They emailed us on Nov20. When I checked the receipt number on uscis site, they received our case Nov16
