I have realized that VJ cannot create an estimated timeline unless you have or will go through consular processing.

My PD is April 10 2017 for I-130 filed concurrently. My case is at NBC. Found out by I/O that AOS is ready to be scheduled for interview yet NBC has not released the case to a field office yet and it's already the 27th, so not sure why they have not released it (I/O says no notices pending and background check was completed in June) which then keeps putting my case behind everyone else that is being scheduled from a field office.

Hi everyone!  I just joined today but have been lurking this website for over a year.  I decided that it might be best for me to join now that hubby and I have started the process :-).  I mailed my package in on Monday, 9/25/17 and it was delivered on 9/27/17.  Good luck to all fellow filers.

I just received email notification and confirmation.  I had requested that my case be expedited on the grounds of my mother being diagnosed with stage III lymphoma and that she has guardianship of my medically disabled brother and my case was forwarded to Potomac service center which I can't find on processing times.

 

Does this mean they are expediting my application??

Welcome everyone to the forum. I've been here for a while as my NOA1 date is Feb 8. Just wanted to give you all the heads up on what is going on. My file is currently stuck in Nebraska after almost 8 months of waiting. Currently it's taking 9-10 months at Nebraska and that center has come to a standstill. Me along with many others in Visa Journey are trying to speed up the processing times at NSC. For those who are stuck in Nebraska feel free to check out the Nebraska filers page where there are a number of people to contact to get things moving along.

 

Potomac by all observation is the fastest. Many people are getting approved in 5-6 months along with Vermont. Texas is around the 6 month mark. I would not go by what USCIS processing times go by because they are 2 months behind. Right now it says Texas is behind Nebraska when it is not the case at all. The estimated date in Visa Journey is accurate according to today's data. However, my estimated date went from Sept to Oct and now to Nov as Nebraska has gotten worse and worse. If things don't pick up I could be looking at Dec (10 months).

 

If any files start to get transferred from Nebraska this will start to effect the other 3 processing centers greatly.

Our NOA1 was received this weekend with a date of 9/21/17 on it just like the text/email.  Hopefully an approved NOA2 comes in the mail by Christmas.
