It's usually two days or so later. So in reality your NOA1 date is around September 13th or 14th. Your NOA1 hardcopy letter will tell you. It's the later date in one of the blocks.

Hmmmmm...well I just go by what it says when I login to see my case status and that's September 11. Personally I consider the routing from the lockbox to be a part of the overall process. To me those days count. Lol

9/8/14 - I129F petition sent to the USCIS lockbox via USPS
9/11/14 - Petition received @ USCIS lockbox
9/11/14 - NOA1 Email and text message received
9/15/14 - NOA1 Official notice date
9/18/14 - NOA1 hard copy received
12/9/14 - "Updated" likely because of website repairs, like many of us received
4/20/15 - NOA2 text and email (221 days)

4/29/15 - Sent to the NVC (9 days)

5/8/15 - Arrived at the NVC (9 days)

5/13/15 - Left the NVC (5 days)

5/15/15 - Electronic version arrived at the embassy (2 days)

5/20/15 - Paper copy arrived at the embassy (7 days)

6/4/15 - Status changed to AP (which meant that we could schedule the interview)

6/16/15 - Medical

6/17/15 - K1 APPROVED!!!!

6/30/15 - Passport and sealed envelope delivered via courier

Well unless we see more of this type of thing happening, then I suspect that this was an anomaly. TabeaK is correct: one data point isn't enough to really know anything at this point. I tend to thin

LETTER TO THE PRESIDENT UPDATE Some of you may recall that the Skunkworks team sent a letter to president Obama requesting his help in balancing the I-129F processing times between the CSC and TSC.

They will take a while to initiate all the transfers. Try not to be disheartened because you didn't hear what you hoped for today. There may be more to be announced in the coming week or two.

Hey everyone,

I just sent my I29-F packet in to Texas last Friday and received the NOA1 today with the transfer to California notice! I'm hoping that this means that things move quickly (well relatively, lol). Good luck everyone!

Wow, that was fast (?). But I think is not fair with someone f us who are still waiting and waiting since Aug, Sept, Oct, nov, dec, etc. But life is not fair. Good for you!

:luv:If you're tearing down my world, please just try to do it gently.There is love inside.... (L)

This is interesting. This is a Florida filer and already transferred to CSC. I wonder how they'll be doing this.. Tomorrow will be exciting if we actually find out. Also wonder how fast CSC will take now.

I really hope that this means that some TSC applications get transferred and processed faster, and whoever got transferred will post here so we can tell from which month they did

If they filed from Florida like their profile said, it should of went to TSC.

The first 3 letters are WAC which I understand to mean the California center. Who knows how the government works? Hopefully EVERYONE'S cases get sped up now with the transfers!

I really hope this is not going to be like waiting at airport immigration when it's really busy.

Anyone know this scenario: You rush off the plane get in line, then they open a new line when you're half way through and pull people from the back.

Or here's another analogy:

Is the state of residence on your petition Florida? If so, I'm floored once again by USCIS, because normally Florida petitions go to Texas... AHHH, they are messing with our heads too much!!!
