Today is VJ is showing August 3. Honestly, can't wait to be approved and move to the next step.

Where are you seeing August 3rd? And exactly! I can’t wait to be done with this first step and move on to the next step.

I have seen a few random August and September approvals from Texas on FB. Doesn’t appear to be any order at all.

Yeah, I saw those too and I was confused. Those weren’t expedited cases either, but a few of them had also filed the I-129f along with the I-130. They believe that’s what sped up the process.

Does anybody keep track of their estimated date on here? I’ve been keeping track and have noticed that it keeps getting pushed back further and further. I’m not sure if the service centers have really slowed down that much or if VJ members are just not updating their timelines.

Yes, I do. So far ours has moved up by a months (since we submitted in October). 
But we‘re at the Nebraska Service Center which is one of the slowest. Maybe their balancing workload so the „fast“ ones become more slow and the slow ones faster 🤷🏼‍♀️

Yeah, mine has gone from March to May. It’s like it gets pushed back every day. We’re at TSC. Maybe you’re right that they’re trying to balance the workload.

Yep! Mine went from April to May! Filled in Late October!

thinking it might be a combination of both people not updating and/or the service centres slowing down too!

I’ve seen some being transferred from Nebraska to Vermont and they’ve waited 2 weeks for an approval so it could be the balancing of workloads!

Seeing the same, interesting, a fair swing for Nebraska I hope!

Hi everyone! Did anyone see a date change in their case status recently? My last date change prior to that was October 21st and this one was February 23rd. I know it probably doesn’t mean anything in terms of processing, but just curious to know if anyone else had the same.

I just checked, and I had the same thing! Hopefully it’s good news.

It would be great if it was some good news. I was thinking it might not mean anything since they probably wouldn’t be looking at October cases yet. What’s ur PD?
