Hi everyone! Newbie here. My NOA 1 date was July 31, so I guess it’s fitting that I post here as an August filer, since I’m right on the cusp. Sorry if I’m mistaken. NOA 2 was December 19–Potomac. 

 

I also wanted to add that the old USCIS site finally updated about 1 week later, but the new site still only says application was received. I found out about our approval via the physical letter in the mail. 

Congratulations!!!!

IKR...Lol Me too. I just called them, but no update. 😢😢😩😩! 

When you call them, do you just ask for an update? When can you start calling? I’ve never called before. I’m scurred...literally!

When I call I ask to check the status of my case. They are always very nice.

Thank you!!! 😃😃😃😃 I know how you feel. I’m glad you were able to enjoy the holidays together. My VJ estimate was dead in too. Prediction is very accurate. I wish they had an estimate for NVC.
