I'm about a month after you...looks like the slowest service center. Although recently, I was reading that many of June 2016 applicants are being transferred to a different service center, so hopefully this speeds things up. It's so galling that people getting sent to the Texas Service center are being approved within 1 month and we're going to have to likely wait 6 months. Oh well.

I saw in the USCIS app that cases after me are getting approved. I guess they don't process it by order of receipt number? They probably separate by beneficiary's country as well. Maybe? Going on to 7 months of waiting between NOA1 and NOA2. This is really excrutiatingly heartbreaking slow. ?

Hang in there. It doesn't look like they process based on country. There are many cases at Nebraska, with Indian beneficiary that approved in less than 5 months sometimes as early as 3 months.

 

It's based on who works on your case.

congrats! All I can say is, be meticulous at each step.Research and ask questions from April May June filers/advance players about next steps. Any error means big delay! we were approved on Nov. 10th and still didn't reach NVC. Paying the price for a very small mistake.... 

 

Tanish is right :) ....on your toes now :)
