There's only 2 dates. Date sent. Date NOA1 given. Both accurate, and CSC is processing also like the above poster.

Did they transfer your documents? My I-129F went to Texas and then they routed them to California. I believe it could have some influence on the estimate time in the app. 

 

Please correct me if I am wrong ?

Yes it went to Texas, then Cali.

 

But the NOA1 is the same date as you. That gets issued at Cali I am pretty sure, since Texas just forwards the documents. I don't see how it matters.

Then they routed it. Try to change it on your timeline settings and i'm positive you'll see the exact dates as on mine timeline.

I'm not sure I'd set too much store by the predicted dates at the moment.  I just checked mine and it said 'between the 12th and 14th January'

 

errrr.... :huh:

 

 

Given that the number of i129fs being submitted each day for late October and November seems to far exceed the number being processed, I think there will be a growing backlog for a while - although it is at least moving again!  Processing 70 out of 300+ means that at the same rate it will still take another three or four days to clear October 31st, before moving onto November - even at the speedy rate of 70 per day it will still take around two days (or more) to process most single days of applications. I am therefore going to guesstimate that it will be another three weeks before they might get to the 9th November (my received date).

 

I think I am going to take up meditation for now...

Another thing, do yourself a favor and do not read the horror stories on VJ that people post everyday regarding their fiance coming here and it not working out. Have confidence in your relationship and use this time to have a stronger relationship with your soon to be spouse. Plus I assume these stories are few a day far between. If you know your SO enough to want to spend the rest of your life with them then the only bad thing in this process is the waiting, stress, and forced LDR.

No, Ybhamster, I emailed the ombudsman, but I got the reply that I expected -- that they couldn't look into it until the case was overdue-- basically, "sorry, you are on your own."   The Form DHS

So, your reply seems like good news -- can you please post the text of the reply (without personal info if you like)?  Maybe we just interpreted the response differently -- I will be interesed to see  the results you get after submitting the case.
