Hi everyone, 

Today is the first time I am posting here. I have been reading this thread and I can clearly feel everyone's  pain. After all we all are in the same boat... 

my Pd is 19th july 2019, it's been 6 months I havent heard anything yet... Any idea what month they are processing for i130.. on the uscis website it says October 2018. is this even accurate?

Oct 2018 is just the inquiry date, Nebraska takes around ~12 months for petition approval, right now we’re seeing mostly Jan and feb 2019

You have no idea. I've seen cases from 2018 that has been approved only a few days ago, which made their total processing time approx. 19-20 months. Terrible, of course! But, also there's no way to tell what type of I-130 case these are. Some types of I-130s take priority over another.

On the processing time page it says that a USC filing for e.g. a spouse takes 12.5-16 months, but LPR filing for spouse takes 19.5-25.5 months. Do you think this could be the case with the I-130 which had such a long processing time?

That's exactly what I was implying.

Just to give you a further idea about the amount of processing needed in the coming months.

Feb, March, April, and May have a huge number of cases that require processing. May alone has 9000+ cases.

So, they don't take 1 month and finish it until the next, but they distribute the workload to offload a little from each month.

Here's what you need to do: Be patient and live your life.

Thank you so much for all the information and analyzing this process - I really appreciate it!

I am in now for 346 days, pd 19feb still nothing... I haven't seen much approvals within 6 months to be honest. Most of the cases are approved within 12/13 months after filing. I see people being approved that filed after me. There is no way I can ever find out why. Our guess is that every uscis worker  has their own little pile And some of them just work faster than other. You find a lot of support in this group and your definitely not alone waiting for the final answer. Good luck

UPDATE:

2018

Cases from May-December have been the focus of processing. The oldest case in May seen had a total processing time of 20+ months .. could be F2A cases? Maybe.

 

2019

Mid-end of Jan, and mid-end of Feb (remember those mass transfers?) also had a great deal of processing.

March kept getting lightly touched. Didn't come across April or May just yet.

 

@Niia You're coming closer again indeed.

So I guess I can expect an approval till June or July, maybe August. This waiting period is so frustrating.

Hope your approval comes soon. It's very frustrating. I check my status daily but it's the same.
