Got approved after 82 days God Bless Potomac 

Did you call NVC yet to see if they have your case? 

 

Be sure to ask for the correct email address they have on file for you.

Call them today! it takes 5 days from Potomac to NVC and if they don't have a valid email address for you, it will delay.

 

I called on April 29 (randomly) and they received my case on April 22, USCIS sent it on April 15th. They confirmed the email address on file and I received case creation email on May 15th.

 

We are waiting to be scheduled for an interview now, it took us 7 days from the day we got the email to pay fees and submit docs to case complete.

Our case was recieved on the 15th but the the operator said it could take up to 6 weeks to get a case number !!! So now I guess we will have to wait until we get the case number and log in information

We mailed our package on 12 Feb and just received our electronic NOA1 on 21 Feb - case is going to Potomac. I've read that Potomac has been on a roll lately, so fingers crossed this roll continues through to us  🤞Hoping for a speedy process for all Feb filers!

That’s what I’ve heard as well, just praying for a speedy process I’ve seen others being approved in 96 days. My NOA1 is feb 26, best of luck to you.

Hi all... We received NOA1 on 22/02/2019 with Potomac service center... I see March fellow filers getting approved in this center currently... Is there any way to find what is the actual status of my application? Apart from the USCIS status portal.

Hi, we are at Potomac and we filed at Chicago lockbox.  But still waiting... NOA 1 was early February. Seems nothing is happening :(

We had an RFE for a recent passport photo of petitioner (although 2 were included in package) and that was submitted - received at service center on May 8th. How long does it take to review one photo?!

I’ve been wondering the same thing Potomac seems to have the fastest responses but I’m still waiting. My priority day in February 26 2019. Hope we both get a response soon, best of luck to you😊
