Hey guys! This is just a general plea I am putting out to all Potomac filers. Please please please, if you haven't already, set up your timeline and try to keep it updated on here. Centers like Texas and Nebraska have a lot of members, so if one or two people skip it, it is not a big deal and it doesn't impact the algorithm too much, but Potomac has a much smaller representation on here, so every case helps us all. Thank you to the two Potomac filers in September who have already received approval keeping their timelines updated. I appreciate you! Thanks!

I’m a September filer. The wife just sent i130 for her father. USCIS Received September 6th, NOA 1 received Sept 12th in the mail. Our case was sent to Texas service center with an IOE receipt number. Best of luck to all. 

any update?

You guys and your "Texas Service Center".  My expected NOA2 is September 2020.   If I was at Texas we'd be moving home this summer, now it looks like next.  Ill never be able to forgive USCIS for this unfairness 😉

Indeed cbro! And looking at the updates in the Nebraska topic, there are still 20-something% January cases pending, so September is even if we would receive NOA2 within a year I would be very happy. Dont want to be negative, but do want to be realistic. On the other hand, also 25% of March cases are already handled, so a little hope that due to the workload spreading across other service centers our estimated approval time will improve.

Haha same. Who knows, maybe we will have an upset and Nebraska will pull it out before then. Not likely, but maybe like a .0000000001% chance lol Have to joke about it or we'll cry 😆

Hello Can you tell me how do I know what service center my case is on?

Check the bottom left hand corner of your NOA1. It will say there.
