Yes my husband is permanent resident..hve no idea about PD..

Assuming your category is F2A (I'm not well versed on visa categories for permanent residents) I checked and your PD is current. Every month there is a visa bulletin released that lists what PD dates are current based on country and category. All this means is that once you get your NOA2 you won't have to wait more for your date to be current (since it already is) and you'll be able to move on to the next steps right away.

I have realized that spouses from Germany getting approval faster. Congrats to all those. But curious whether country matters when they see the case??

And may I know, what was your estimate VJ's timeline??

Yes I did get approved!

So some info--

Our I-130 was approved in 188 days from NOA1.

as of yesterday (i kept a daily tracking spreadsheet) VisaJourney  adjudication estimate was  between  sept 7 - sept 21, which had been steadily tightening from  a sept14 - oct 10  estimate in mid July.

VJ timeline data shows TSC taking an average of 232 days from NOA1 to NOA2, but you must remember that this is an aggregate of user data and will include outliers of those who successfully expedited, those who were issued RFE's, and those whose petitions have been unfortunately delayed.  I think as the electronic cases start swinging in, this data might get skewed tremendously as they get processed so much faster. 

 

Igor's List, which can be found in the processing status here, was very helkpful in keeping track of trends and the range of dates members were being approved.

 

If you are a February filer--- there is a lot of reason to be optimistic for the next few weeks.  And March people ought to start getting antsy also

I just wanted to add to this that the estimates on VJ don't take into account outlier cases or cases where dates are clearly inputted incorrectly. 

 

Also, congrats on being approved!

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe that's because  they have the Direct Consular File option avaialble in Germany.
