timeline estimate on visajourney

[sleepynt 2]

Hi all. Right now I and my fiance is just at NOA1 stage and the estimate says that maybe in Oct 2024 I will receive decision. I hope for that. I know timeline estimate on this website is for reference only. However I wonder if the timeline correctly predict the date to your case?

Mine was more or less accurate, predicting August. When we initially filed (end of March) I personally estimated Sept. My timeline/signature show details. 

 

Processing seems to be much faster now compared to this time last year. Good luck!

VJ estimates are based on the analysis of the most cases . These are not 100%, mine says July 15 when I filed in April. Now that adjudicated date has been long passed and I'm still waiting to hear something from USCIS. 😆 I'm thinking USCIS will tell me something in Oct or Nov 25. That's my estimate. So always give it 2-3 months extra on top of VJ estimates. Good luck to all of us stay positive and be hopeful 👍

I think the only people where it will be fairly accurate for a while is those who filed late March - May. Those of us before, and those after are in limbo as USCIS isn't really processing applications as "first-come first-serve." Seems like the estimates will be messed up until they get back to normal processing.

To be clear the USCIS is the first stage of the process, and “average” application approval seems consistent with the estimate of 3 months. PLEASE note that it then has to go to NVC for case creation and interview set up which can take at least 3 months more more likely more.

I filed in June and was just approved, my estimate was about three to four weeks after the actual date
