Hi v'jers! I have been on this site for awhile just browsing but finally decided to join to voice my opinion. I hope that I did the right thing. I am a leftover July filer. How many more of us are out there? What are the NOA1's? Mine is July 25, 2011.

I think it's a good idea to keep her busy and looking forward to the next thing. Mine is at the CSC .......looking forward to good news.

I have a July 26 priority date. Few days ago I noticed a case number with 2 digits lower than mine was not approved. I just checked that receipt number again right now and it was approved yesterday. There is one more receipt number before mine. I have positive vibes flowing through me.

you guys will hear something this week or next week according to Vj timelines :)

Sigh... so since I submitted July 15th, I should've heard something last week or two weeks ago, according to vj timelines?

The timelines on this site in general seem weirdly optimistic! Have you noticed that the I-130 timeline statistics data says the CSC is currently processing I-130 visas from October? It's weird for it to be that far off-target. :unsure:

USCIS (221 days)
07-13-2011 -- I-130 sent
07-15-2011 -- I-130 NOA1 received in the mail
02-21-2012 -- I-130 NOA2 approved

NVC (26 days)
02-24-2012 -- NVC receives application
03-21-2012 -- Case completed at NVC

Consulate (50 days)
04-05-2012 -- Interview date assigned
05-01-2012 -- Medical
05-21-2012 -- Interview - Approved
05-25-2012 -- Received visa

06-03-2012 -- POE!

Yes, I check all the way from 40 cases through the range of my own. I see that out of 40 about 20 had been either: approved, denied or sent and RFE. Therefore, you can say out of 40 about half of them have obtained a response. But, in a smaller range out of 10 there are 4 approved and 6 leftover. I do not know what to think because the case # directly in front me is not approved but then the case # directly behind me is approved. So, I just wonder if I may hear something this week?

LOL-You are cracking me up with your ticker cursors. LOL-A snail and a camel in the desert. This depicts CSC's slowness, eh?

The timeline statistics are an average based on VJ member timelines. This includes petitions that were expedited for whatever reason. There are petitions that have been approved in less than a month while others are waiting 6.5 months or more.
