Lots of Nov filers I believe got back logged even more when Calif Service Center stopped processing 1-130 last months uscis update. They stopped processing 1-130 for US Citizens filing for their spouse.. Check their area where it says 1-130 and u will see that CSC only does permanent resident filing for spouse now... I honestly believe that is why NSC got slower like if they weren't slow enough already...

I really don't know where to begin, but to thank God! I have been following this post for MONTHS. We did not file in November our priority date is December 13, 2016 but this thread is a lot more active than the December thread. We are super excited! We received our NOA-2 today from USCIS. It was approved on the 31st of August -- about 8 1/2 months after the priority date.

 

This was a real anxious and tense time for us, it was especially hard being apart for eight months. It reached the point where we just bought a ticket for me to come visit my wife in Houston. We were unsure if they would let me in on my B1/B2 visa. I had no issue getting into the country. I flew into Miami (MIA). The immigration officer was friendly, no hassle at all. It was information from this very thread, where people said they had travelled into the country during the process, that prompted us to take a chance. I would just like to say thank you to everyone who takes the time to post. I feel that the importance of these forums cannot be overstated, even if just as a support mechanism.

Good luck to everyone! On to the NVC stage- any recommendations are greatly appreciated and accepted!

Congrats on your approval!! 🎉🎉 Thank you for sharing about the B2 visa. I am also very nervous about going to visit on this visa, but hearing stories like yours make me feel more confident going. How long were you able to visit for? That's the one bit I'm not sure on, how long they will allow me there on a tourist visa so I don't know what date to book my return ticket . Good luck for the rest of the Visa journey!! 😊
