Has anybody received any updates on their case or know any information about what cases USCIS is currently going thru? I am at about 11 months waiting still no update since filing I am hoping yo hear something soon….if there is a whatsapp group also please let me know. 

 

thanks

Not much movement for filers in 2022 yet. I think most service centers are processing Nov & Dec 2021 right now.

Bumping this thread! Have there been any approvals?

I filed mine on Feb 26. The receipt notice was from Potomac. Active review since May 3. Fingers crossed it gets approved soon!

 

 

I'm in Potomac too (PD is Feb 12th). They seem to be processing cases from November 2021 right now. So we probably have 2-3 more months of waiting. Hopefully, it goes by faster OF COURSE!

I saw someone on a Facebook group that was approved yesterday with a PD in late February 2022....Seems like they might be closer to processing January - February but who knows.

Hope for an approval any day now!

Thanks for sharing! We are in Potomac, so I am not expecting much, to be honest with you. I see you are in California so hopefully you will hear something soon.

I'm also in California and I saw this post on Facebook - it gave me hope.  Lately I've been thinking that California was sleeping.  Does anyone know if there's any way to track how many cases each service center approves each day (specifically the I130's)?  I know there's Hilites.Today but not every case is represented, only a certain portion of cases so not very accurate.

You have to get on a live chat with USCIS through Emma and ask which service center is handling your case.  I do it periodically because they don't always tell you it's been transferred.

I don't see where there is a live chat feature? I clicked on the "Ask Emma" function but I just get canned responses to my question.

 

My receipt is from Nebraska, and everything I'm reading says "10 1/2 months" on average. Well now I'm WAY off -- it's been 12 months and 2 days. 

 

My husband is in Florida while I wait in the cold and dark recesses of Ontario Canada. It's killing me. Everyday I want to cry.

I'm right there with you!  Our case will be "celebrating" its one-year anniversary next week.  I'm in the cold and dark recesses of Wisconsin and my husband is in Colombia.  We haven't seen each other in 9 months.  Every day is a struggle but I have faith that very soon we'll hear something.  I've noticed a trend lately that many cases are taking around 12-1/2 months so you should be very close.  Hang in there!

 

As far as Ask Emma goes, when you have that open, just type Live Agent and go through the prompts that follow.  Eventually it'll connect you to a live agent.  Let me know if you have any questions.

I'm sorry you're going through this, too!  It's a very lonely time, and I feel everyday like I'm in limbo, "waiting" for my life to start again. (We've been married 20 years, and have been apart since last April when he left for a job in Fla). 

 

I hope you're right, that we're close -- and sending good energy you're not far behind!! 

 

Thanks for the tips on Emma, I will try that now!
