Not as good as yesterday, but pretty close. :)

If they continue to work at the rate that they have been over the past couple of days (and if they worked systematically in date order!!) they could process all the cases up to 14th November by Valentines Day! I can hardly believe this cheers me up - when we submitted, I thought we'd have our approval by mid-December.  I know i'm in the lucky bunch - at least I have mine six weeks later then anticipated.  But it was only when I chilled out and stopped worrying so much and gave in to not being able to do anything about it that I got so lucky -which made it double the surprise.

 

Aaron, for alll his chilled out and understated excitement about our NOA2, sends everyone here some zen vibes for those still waiting. If I could sprinkle a little of his calm 'que sera sera' across the forum I would.  It is moving folks.  II really feel for the October filers - sending all the vibes i can that whoever's desk those files are on comes back from their toilet break/holiday/wall-building and gets cracking!

 

Hang on in there.  It's still a better situation than it was a month or two months ago.  Oh - I wonder if we have some way to track when the final forum member gets their NOA2?  That will be the day to crack open the bubbly stuff!  And the day the first visa is issued!

 

Sending good vibes and looking forward to the updates from those who don't know yet that they got approved today!

Hello, geowrian! 

Thank you for the update. 

I have a question. The dates on the cases being tracked, is it the NOA1 Or the case received?

Hi.

What does "other" stand for?

I also received NO1 on November 14, but didn't get anything yet. It's still to early though, might come later today or tonight ))

other can be all sorts of things - case transferred, rejected etc...

 

If you open Geowrian's spreadsheet you can see whether your case was approved.  There have been a few with NOA1 dates of November 14th.  The second page on the spreadsheet lists the case numbers and status.  Or you can download the USCIS status app and check it from there (and get notified when the approval/RFE is processed).  When was your case received by USCIS?

 

As I mentioned in a previous post, with current processing times, cases received before 14th November should hopefully be processed before Valentine's Day.  At least a bulk of them!

 

Good luck :)
