Hey there guys, just wondering, is it normal for other people around the same time of submitting their application to be getting their NOA2 before you?

For instance we got or NOA1 on Feb 14 2016 and have not received the NOA2 however see everybody else around that time already receiving theirs. Slightly worried :(

Goodness, so we just happen to be one of the February filers on these Visa Journey timelines that is going to receive theirs later :( disappointing when you see everybody else receiving theirs from February, and you keep hoping to see yours. I understand what you are saying however.

It's very normal, some gets approved very fast, some have to wait much longer. I for instance had to wait for 6 months last year when "everyone else" got approved in 2-3 months. It's very frustrating but there's nothing you can do until 5 months have passed.

My goodness, that is certainly frustrating :( I really hope it will not be that long, but i understand it happens.

January 17th and still waiting, definitely frustrating seeing everyone in January start to set up interviews and go thru the process, but everybody case is different so just trying to be patient but praying it comes ASAP.

I am sorry to hear that, looking like we will be in the same boat, I wouldn't think our case would be very difficult. Pretty straight forward case with no issues. You are right though each case is different
