I'm addicted to the USCIS website, shamelessley checking for updates ever so often (ashamed to say how often), only to be left feeling low each time, has anyone ever beaten the addiction, please tell me how, I want to stop. .

I hope you figure out how to beat it.... you do realize that you will not receive any updates until they are ready to adjudicate your file and you are prolly 4-6 weeks away at minimum

You're not the only one.

And you won't get any of those either until just before......

Oh dear...and you're just at 30 days today? If you follow recent VJ experience, you'll see that more often than not, people do not get touched until right before/after there is some action on their case. Allso according to recent stats, the average approval comes in 75-80 days after NOA1....you've got a while yet to wait. Obsessively checking the USCIS will not help your state of mind. Not sure what would help though....for me it was a very conscious decision to stay away from the USCIS website...I come here instead. I'm still an addict, but this doesn't depress me as much. (Unless there's a dry spell like we had during the last two weeks in april.

Good luck!

If at all . . . .

I have been much more addicted to this site than the USCIS site. It never changed. This one does.

Thanks, I applied at VSC though, I hope your waiting will end soon too.

I did the same thing at one point too. You just have to back away from the PC

Good Luck with everything! Actually my constant checking is how I found out my NOA2 had been sent before I even opened my email.

Dear WayneGeraldine -

I was going to suggest picking a day of the week - any day - and making that your check for the week. After first submitting the I-129F, I checked daily ... only to see nothing happen. So, the routine has become to check each Friday night when I get home from work. End of the day. End of the week.

BUT after reading your post, I thought: It's Monday night after work ... what the hell. YOU are my talisman WG !! I was touched today. I know. I know. Being touched means that my petition has moved from pile B to pile C, but heck after months of nothing, I'll take it. Even if I'm sent an RFE ... at least it's proof there's one live body working in CSC.
