Does your case appear on the USCIS website when you check the status? Mine up to now my case is still "not found" so I'm unable to register with electronic notification. But when I call the agent they have it in their record.

Gowon,

How can I register with the USCIS.GOV website when my case doesn't even appear in their record?

Its always "Not found" whenever I type in the EAC number. Is there some things you guys are doing that I am not?

yes 5 months from noa1, and sometime worst it will reach to 6 months grrrrrrrrrr this is really killing me.

5 months is the adjudication time. If u have an RFE they usually try to let u know that around the 3/4 month mark.

I'm about 3 weeks away from the 5 months mark myself.

fingers crossed for all of us!

hugs!

What I've bolded isn't true. The adjudication process is essentially this: the adjudicator opens your file and reviews your petition. At that point, they will decide to either approve the petition, issue an RFE, or deny. They don't pull your petition a series of times to review it for completeness and then put it back on a shelf for a few more months to review it again because no RFE was issued.

The stated goal of the USCIS is to review/adjudicate petitions within a five-month timeframe. However, there are plenty of examples on VJ alone where people have been well under and well over that estimate.

Mine was not found until the approval. First time case status had anything was "Post decision activity" - Approved.
