Service Center Adjudication date estimates

[Pinder 0]

Perhaps this is splitting hairs but I am curious if anyone has

thoughts or insight into the following issue.

At this site I have been reviewing timelines for I-129F

submittals to the CSC. Interestingly I see a lot of variation

between "Date Application Mailed" and "Date of NOA1" My application

was mailed April 23, 2007 and my NOA1 date, as best I can tell, is

May 17. Another applicant to the CSC has a mailed date of May 9, 2007

and an NOA1 date of May 14. I believe that the difference may result

from the fact that I mailed my package direct to the CSC since I am a

california resident and the other applicant whose case I cite is a

North Carolina resident (meaning that they sent their package to a

different service center and it was transferred to the CSC by that

center, I believe)

Interestingly, Visa Journey seems to be using the mailed date as an

start date for its' estimated adjudication date (NOA2). For example,

Visa Journey is now estimating my adjudication date to be August 31

yet they are stating that the applicant with the May 14 NOA1 date has

an estimated adjudication date of September 16.

Does it make sense to have my adjudication date prior to applicant

with the earlier NOA1 date?

Yes, but when it comes around that time, you may get proccessed and approved first or the other person will. While applications are generally processed in order, they do get a little out of order at the processing end. And some petitions may need background checks. So they may get approved later than someone who sent in their application after them.

Its really hard to know for sure, but you may start to see some movement toward the end of august.

Doesn't really matter as none are probably correct anyway!

Some probably not even close if they have RFE or AP problems.
