Wow, 63 days. That is fast! Congrats. Seems the TSC is working miracles at times. Seems they've completely caught up with the backlog. The USCIS website shows normal 5 month processing times.

Hi all,

New here, I filled and sent I-130- IR 2 in April and received NOA1 in 5 days later on 28th of April.

I have sent my daughter(1 month old) via DHL from Dublin Ireland to Chicago address which sent it to Nebraska office.

Checking process time today it's saying 5 months? Is that true?

Last year I applied for my self and my son same process but this time it was sent to the California office and receive NOA1 on 22 June 2015 and NOA2 23 of July 2015.

Now I have my visa IR 1 and my son visa IR 2 ready which will expire on 2nd of Sept 2016 but we are waiting on my daughter visa to be ready but it's looking like it going to be long process.

What happen between now and last year to get this much of delay does not make sense to me?

Any advice for me please?

Thanks

Your NOA1 should have been sent from the Service Center that is processing it.
