I got approved! Omg, finally!! So, my NOA1 was Janurary, 19 and I got my NOA2 July,18. The old website did not update, but the new one did. I didn't have any of the two line stuff appear on either the new or the old website. Good luck to all!! I am so happy!!! 

What is this old/new website I'm hearing about? Is https://egov.uscis.gov/casestatus/landing.do the new or the old?

I got another update today, thought you guys might want to know.

 

My NOA 2 date was June 23 (I think I quoted that wrong today)

Sent to NVC July 6

 

I just called to check ( I use option 1 for English, and then Option 2 for assigning an agent usually) and when I got through to the person they told me that I had to call back and use Option 1, Option 5 for Electronic Processing since I'm from Canada (and they've never done that before). When I got through on that line they confirmed that they have finally received it. So apparently now my six week timer starts according to the guy. But I'm still taking this as a win.Just thought people might want to hear how long it's taking to receive packages at NVC right now.

I was looking potomac processing and it seems like they approved most of IR-1/CR-1 Visa after 18th of the month or and they are quit slow during first half of the month. Lets hope that is the case this month and we start receiving NOA2 form them soon. 

I noticed that too...I see more approvals for them at the end of the month

I was approved on June 28th per new site. No data (case doesn't show up on the old site. I got a hard copy stating June 27, it was in my mailbox on July 3rd. I don't know I'm starting to think that I am calling to early.  This is around the time that I have seen people get NVC received date, about 2-3 after approval.

It's taking up to 8 weeks to get an NVC case number.

I know it can take up to 8 weeks AFTER they receive my petition. I'm trying to call them so I know when they get my petition so I can start calling on week 7.

 

I'm posting my updates for the time frame of approval to sent to DoS (NVC) to petition received so that others have an idea of how long it can take based off of my progress.

I-130 CR1 Timeline  Visa has been issued!!!!!! = ^.^= YAY!
