We are on day 132. We haven't called yet. There aren't very many cases with our received date that have been approved so we aren't worried about not hearing anything yet... we are just going to wait it out and if it gets to 150 days we may think about calling... maybe.

With those received dates, I wouldn't expect to hear anything for a week or two. Of course, its entirely up to you and if you think calling will give you peace of mind go for it! And be sure to update us all! We love to hear how other people's experiences have gone.

My received date is 04/14 and we havent called neither.

My VJ timeline says Aug 24-30th so I just think we should wait a little longer

Our case ending is 0635

I'm not sure if its just me, but I honestly feel happy when I hear people getting their NOA2's

It's not only you... and I think it is because it gives you hope, even for others when you already got the golden tickets

I know it's easy to tell other people to wait when you already got the NOA2 (that's why I didn't do it ), but I think we have a very similar way of thinking regarding waiting times and when to take action on this process

Day 131!  Now i am wondering maybe i shouldn't have front loaded my K-1 petition because they have to go through lot more documents than applicants who did not.   i would have gotten a RFE by now and at least know my petition was touched.

Unsure calling them will expedite your petition unless you have a profounding influence on them.  once everyone start calling they will catch on and just come up with generic response to get you stop calling.

I had this same thought recently too! However, seeing an RFE issued for more evidence makes me happy I sent boarding passes, passport stamps, flight info, pictures, conversations etc. After all, for pictures at least, they can just flick through.

So Keith and Monica, I'm happy for you that your RFE was a minor thing like that. I'm hoping mine is too. Expecting it to arrive mid-week hopefully.

 

I'm curious, I saw your fiance is from Philippines. Mine too. Did you have an agency assist you in the PI with your application? I did, and I'm kinda surprised I still got an RFE. But if it's something simple I'll give them a pass...

No, she and I worked on it ourselves.  It was all me making the mistake.

[tcovington 175]

What Nvc number are y'all calling. 0700 or 0888? 

[tcovington 175]

something for the UK filers if they wish for a head start. Not sure if its as inclusive as it needs to be, but hopefully its a good start.

One day behind you at 136, and I blew their phones up last week I think I'll leave it be this week.Looking forward to USPS Email in the morning maybe it has good news ... I am 0 for 136 though so the odds aren't in my favor

Hang in there!!  It is coming when you least expect it!!

This wait is driving me crazy. I'm normally super patient but I'm on the edge now and it's running out fast. I'm really nervous for tomorrow's email from informed delivery. I know as of last Tuesday I'd been assigned an adjudicator and someone else posted that they spoke with a a tier 2 officer who said it's usually around 2 days from that point to process the case, so I went back to look at my mail for the NOA1. Dated April 13 (Thursday), post marked on April 14 (Friday), and received it on April 17 (Monday). Then I checked today to see where my VJ timeline is. I'd been ignoring it because it was always 1-2 days away for what felt like so long. Looks like I finally caught it on Friday, and it will be interesting to see if VJ's processing times for cases currently being worked on are still listed as April 13 tomorrow like they are today. And still no update on the USCIS tracker, so I'm assuming that's good because it seems like only RFEs are updated consistently and regularly. Hopefully I haven't built my hopes up too much. I'll definitely being going for a nice long run tomorrow, either cuz I'm really excited and have tons of energy I need to burn, or to blow off steam from the disappointment...

Sorry, just really needed to vent. Hopefully we'll all have our NOA2s in hand very soon.

[Keith & Monica 986]

Vent away @A_F, we are here for you.

Day 140. Hoping for a better week. With someone touching our case.
