quick question everyone, I just thought it was the way the paper work looked, but my wife is freaking out because she looked at the NOA1 that we got in Feb and it shows only her first name and 2 last names. It does not have her middle name, I just thought maybe this is how they printed the paperwork but now that we are going into our 6th month I am also freaking out. Can anyone confirm that this is ok or that I need to take some action into getting this corrected. On the application I put her full name so just wondering.

Thanks guys

Just got off the phone with Tier 2 rep and she said that my case was at NBC, didnt really give me any other info besides that. Also said not all cases go to local offices so hopefully this is a good thing since I heard that Dallas is really backed up. I also know to take this with a grain of salt as you can call 5 times and get 5 different answers but hopefully this was legit.

Ok I really can't take this anymore . My case is at NBC, not transffered. They are saying that there is delay at NBC and processing time is longer now. They have no info, and I can't wait any more. Everytime i see approvals for january or february filers. I feel better and hopeful , seeing no approvals makes me sad :(

I hope it starts moving soon.

Hey, almost same here. We are at 5 months the 12th this month (August). Can't complain at all as long as there are so many ahead of us! But why such hage delays? Nobody knows? Is it possibly because of the current immigration legislation before congress this moment? We are dying here, but at least we are together and that is a huge plus!

Good luck to all of you who are waiting same as us.

I filed my petition February 26, 2013 and still no update. I just called the uscis this morning and they told me they sent out a letter to me informing me possibly another 6 more months. I can not believe what these people are doing to me. I am thinking i will go wait in the philippines with my wife this december. I hope and pray something will happen soon...

February seems a very quiet month so far!

It will hopefully get the USCIS to approve our I130s faster!

I'm still very anxious at receiving an email for NOA1, I know that the package as delievered on 08/02 at the Phoenix Lockbox.
