[OlayemiLoray 172]

Glad I finally found this thread because myself as well is a February Filer..Sent off Feb 2nd, received February 4th, and received my NOA1 by mail and through email on Feb.10th..Now the waiting begins..I have to keep myself busy, so I taken up a part time job to keep from going insane..I want to wish all the February Filers and the others who filed on different months good luck on their journey and plenty of prayers because Lord knows we need it!

Did see a case or 2 in January and February got NOA2 but i guess that's not the norm.

Today marks my first month and i hope the estimated time from VJ is accurate!

I know I was surprised when I saw some people have their NOA2 at 30 days, but according to the timeline the estimate is 60+ days  for Texas Service center. Nothing to do but wait I guess lol

Hi Zain...congrats on filing! Looks like our spouses will go through the same embassy. I think you're lucky you got sent to potomac.  I got sent to Nebraska:( oh well hopefully it will go by quickly. 

[Lazybones18 261]

Expect NOA2 for February/Texas in 3 Months - 4 Months ... Around July/August in my opinion

 

They are sending a lot of applications from Nebraska to Texas which will definitely slow down the process

 

also notice the graph here ... NOA1 --> NOA 2 ... http://www.visajourney.com/content/ir1cr1historical

 

The time is going up for Texas .. definitely wont be 2-3 months anymore ...

 

i would ignore the people who received noa2 in 1 month's time ..  most likely they either expedited or made a error in updating their timeline

 

Best of luck tick tock !!!

Hi all, I also filed in February and have been assigned to Potomac Service Center. I have been trying to check my status online but my receipt number comes back as invalid. Has anyone else had any problems with their receipt number being invalid on USCIS website?

Have you tried it on the mobile app?

It's called Case Tracker, by Stephen Aldous

Hey my fellow February filers! 

Almost two months have passed since my husband and I filed. I know considering current processing  times we have 4-5 months left until we hear back from USCIS. But every day that goes by gets us one day closer to our loved ones.

hang in there <3

I just tried it and it still says invalid. I am really concerned now.

It's indeed unusual but have you also tracked other cases (put a number from 1 to 200 in the box next to your case number) , what is the result?

For example if you put 10, you will get results of my number and the next 10 case numbers (if my number is ABC12345, i will get results from ABC12345 to ABC12354)

What is the exact error you are getting? There was another thread where people were getting Apache validation errors. That was an OS issue and nothing to do with the case number.
