Not "many" all july filers are as delayed as you are. The furthest date they show movement so far is july 24th as of Friday. 

yes, that notice you received is noa1 and the dates according to that makes your noa1 date.

 

As  long as the website shows a date before your received date, you are considered in normal processing times, so don't worry you're not alone. 

 

They are doing mainly june june and july at the moment so hopefully you will hear something within the month.

Thanks so much Naes! That makes me feel a lot less jumpy. Anybody tried to submit an inquiry?

Even June filers cannot submit an inquiry online. the date on the USCIS website has to be August 1 for July to be able to submit an inquiry.

 

You can try doing it on the phone, but again even June filers are having a hard time with it at the moment.

 

The delay started since April filers, so the wait got really long for everyone, (about 190-220 days on average)

You are pretty close so I would wait a little bit longer, no panic necessary yet it is not an extraordinary situation at the moment.

Hey guys, I figured I'd get started on the Affidavit of Support and get that ready to go since I want to be able to hit the ground running when it's needed.

I'm typing my answers in Acrobat.  How have others handled the instructions that tell you to put "N/A" for questions that don't apply, but the form doesn't allow you to type the "/"?  (I can only write "NA.")  I had this problem on the I-129F as well and I think I wound up leaving those blank or handwriting N/A, can't recall.

How's everyone else dealing with this?  (And really?  At no point did anyone at USCIS notice it was impossible to follow the instructions exactly when typing one's responses, which surely must be the preferable method of filling out these forms??  )

Up till now I've handwritten those parts.

 

funny thing, now I made it in MAC instead of windows... and I was able to put whatever I want... 

 

but handwritten is good for those just be careful to check and fill everything in the end

I used "NA" or "None" on the I-129F form.  I just started working on the I-134 form, and it looks like I will have to do the same thing.  As you mentioned, it doesn't allow "N/A".

Hi! I’ve been following this thread for a long time, I just wanted to share that today we found our noa2 in the mail, it was approved January 23rd, we only received the letter, no updates yet. From July 19th. Good luck to everyone, keep your hopes up!

How synced up are the case tracker app and the case status page online?  I know some people have received mail without either being updated, but has there been anyone that has seen one updated but not the other?

 

Is it worth checking both?

Hi guys! I've been a long time lurker and I am really confused about the income requirements. I haven't even gotten my NOA2 yet but I want to get ahead.  I see some websites where they say I (the petitioner) need to meet the 125% income requirements and some where they say I need to meet the 100% income requirement for form I-134. Which one is it? please help 

[JSCGPV 1,903]

It's all the petitioner or U.S. citizen that has  to meet the requirements for the i-134.

Technically it is the 100% for the K1, but I have heard where some embassies ask for 125%. That is what is needed for AOS anyway.
