It depends on what service center your I-129F was routed to. The texas Service Center has an average time of 5-7 months while some people that get routed to California Service Center have been getting their NOA 2 in that time period you specified above. If you fill out your timeline with all the info then you would get a better estimate with people that filed in the same location as you.

There can be plenty of reasons for it taking long. Maybe it is at a slower Service Center at this time. Maybe an RFE. Maybe they are just back upped. I would try contacting your Service Center

They are currently processing The End of December/Beginning of January Filers right now.

Lots of end of Jan people - My NOA1 was Jan 24. I got NOA2 late last night. 6 months, 1 day - 182 days total.

The January TSC thread http://www.visajourney.com/forums/topic/481749-january-2014-tsc-filers/page-101 has some info. But it looks like for TSC you can expect to wait around 6 months. Hang in there. There are likely several other people on the same boat as you are. The waiting really sucks and it's super hard hearing about CSC filers getting processed so quickly. It will come!
