Hi All, I just submitted an I-130 for my wife a few days ago. I got an email today stating they've taken action on my case. When I log on, it provides an estimated approval of 10 months. Can anyone speak to the accuracy of this? Did they actually look at my application and provide that or just put a general number in there?

"action" could be the mailing of your NOA1 receipt notice.  Average time for the USCIS part of the process seems to be more than a year. Then, another 6 months or so for the Department of State portion.

In summary, it took 13 months for approval of the CR-1.  It took 44 months for approval of the I-751.  It took 4 months for approval of the N-400.   It took 172 days from N-400 application to Oath Ceremony.   It took 6 weeks for Passport, then 7 additional weeks for return of wife's Naturalization Certificate..

The estimated approval is not accurate at all, seems to be the same information they would provide if you track it by case number.

Best is to be patient and hope that approval times get better. I am about to hit a year at the end of this month and still waiting.

 

Good luck.
