You can find the March 2017 I-130 Thread here. While I'm sure some people have been approved, I hope you're aware that it will likely take 5-7 months to receive an acceptance. Good luck!

Scroll to the bottom and look at the dates, how can these be on NOA2 already?

From what I can see, it seems that most if not all of the people being expedited are from the Philippines and are being automatically expedited because of the ongoing typhoons there. I know that definitely happened after 2013 and it appears to be happening still. But there does seem to be some disagreement on the issue on VJ:

VJ only shows your own service center to my knowledge. Go to Processing Time and then click on the second link that says "Nebraska Service Center." For the case tracker app (it might be iPhone only) if you take your case number and go back sequentially you can search by 500 cases. Ill warn you I had to go back about 150000 as the numbers are sequential for every type of form, not just I-130.

Hi, which case tracker app are you using? I see there are multiple when searching the app store on iPhone.

We're all here for each other, whether we're approved or still waiting. This forum is such a great place where we can see others who are still waiting too. I was noticing yesterday on the Igor's List for Nebraska that so many from Sept 2016 are still waiting too (or haven't updated their timelines... ). I'm really hoping that I can rejoice when others get approved first and hang in there if I'm one of those left behind...haha. But you guys make it bearable. I love seeing notifications on this forum just because it means that others are still trying to figure this thing out too.
