It's a joy to continuously hear about all the application approvals.   Doesn't matter if Potomac represents you,  Texas, California etc., at the end of the day we all have one thing in common..... And

Good news here! We got an Approval Notice on the mail today. On the USCIS website, it still says Case Received. My NOA1 is April 18th (TSC).

maybe they have expedite ?

It's possible, but I don't think that's it because it's like 1-2 out of every 10 cases for my husband's country (UK).

Stupid question- looking at the Visa Processing tables for TSC, there are I-130 filers with 75-125 day from start to finish visa processing times. They filed well after we did in April (all of us) and they're already at the end of the process.

 

This must be obvious, but what am I seeing?

Maybe its a typo or maybe they were one of the lucky ones that just made it through? not sure.

Looks like March 2017 filers started to see their cases approved in August from Potomac. so maybe next month fingers crossed for April filers who is with Potomac.

Yes!  I'm hoping so.  Looks like Potomac is moving the applications right along.  Shouldn't be much longer now April filers

Where are you seeing this? The processing times on here for TSC show that they are processing February & early March...I don't see any months after that...and that's consistent with the specific month threads on here...I don't see any May, June or July filers saying they've received NOA2 yet. Maybe they are permanent residents & not U.S. Citizens? I've heard that those processing times are faster. This whole process is a mystery lol!

@truelove29

Where do you see that TSC center is processing Feb and March. According to USCIS they are still processing Nov 2016.

 

If you go to the menu here & go to processing times...you can see TSC processing times of members on here that are keeping their timeline updated...when they applied, got NOA1 & NOA2. And if you go to the specific TSC thread on here, you'll see all members that are currently getting NOA2 are in February & early march. There are still some from January waiting...but it seems they are picking up. Unfortunately USCIS are terrible at updating their website & if you call, the people that work there are just going by what their website says! Visa journey members seem to know more than they do 😂

thanks for the information. I appreciate it. Based on this, do you think we will get some results in a month?

Any April approvals yet? specifically from Potomac? Last I heard they were at the end of March.

Haven't seen any yet.   I'm watching my email and VJ like a hawk cause my estimated approval date is Sept 1 - 3.  I'm praying for you guys quick approvals.  We can do this!
