I noticed that a November filer (20th November 2007) had NOA2 on February 7th 2008 through Vermont .... surely that proves that the USCIS system is not first come first served .... it instead looks a little 'willy nilly' ..... maybe as the adjudicators are human, they tend to be more attracted to the I-130 packages which look more appealing ??
.... should we have instead used pretty coloured paper to write our cover letters on .... and inserted a small but meaningful gift ?
I think I should start a thread to ask what everyone's I-130 packages looked like .... and based on that ... who's had quick approvals etc
