Keep a keen eye on the timelines that are similar to yours (i.e. the filing date/service center) and check there for the number of NOA2s. Also, USCIS has a toll free number you can call, if you have the time to wait on hold. I called just to verify the NOA1 etc. and the person answering the line was very polite and was able to put to rest my concerns...I am sure everything is fine, and (even though it sucks) the worst case is that you have an ROE on your hands but that only means some extra time. I find it is best to look at your fiancee's arrival as inevitable albeit a variable timeline :P

Keep in mind that the average of 4 months includes cases that qualified for expedites. For those that don't qualify for expedites the current average waiting time between NOA1 and NOA2 has been around 5-7 months.

NVC: (37 days)

03/12/12 - NVC Received both

03/21/12 - NVC case number and IIN received for both & Emailed Choice of Agent for both

03/23/12 - AOS bill invoiced & paid for both

Hey guys, im new to the website as well. Sent out my I 130 for my husband and it was received on april 13,2012. As I read along im getting discurished on the wait time. Didnt think this initial process would take so long. Im hopeful he will be with me.sometime this year. I worry about our age difference (11 years) and im scared I wont be able to start my life with my soulmate but I cant loose hope. I like to.read on and see how happy others are when they get approved, hope thats us soon.
