From reading these boards and checking timeline information on Nebraska (I am going through them) , it seems Neb. is so-so time wise. Expect 30-60 days. Maybe more people will post here and give you and me a better idea.

Hi!

It took Nebraska about 45 days to process our K-1. It was submitted at the end of August and approved mid October. Remember to check back at the status of where they're at with processing. That was somewhat helpful for us.

Good luck!

We are currently at 42 days and no status change in our case (Just the NOA1 no touches) ....

I'd imagine Nebraska is closer to the 60 days rather than the 30 days ... But to be honest it doesn't feel like it has been that long already .... so the time seems to go by fast ...

Seems to me that Nebraska has no order to them at all.

Just 3 months ago I got mine in 14 days. Yes, 14 days from NOA1 to NOA2. There were a slew of us who all applied at the end of Nov. who were approved at the beginning of december.

I have seen others wait 3 plus months, and some of these people filed within 2 weeks of my application. The 30 to 60 days is a rough estimate at best.

Be glad you aren't at TSC or CSC, those to service centers are 6 plus months. 2 years ago, NSC was taking 9 months to a year. So it could be a LOT worse. I personally know someone who waited 332 days in 2003/2004.

Goodluck to you..
