Ummmm, no. Unless you are saying that the majority of July 19-mid november filers just all happen to have RFE's

Congratulations! It's true that your approval is unfair, but life's not fair, and least you can take some recourse in the fact that it's unfair in your favor this time. Also, thank you so much for

I was approved this morning as well and my NOA1 was only November 29! I was in complete shock and didn't know what to think as I stared at the screen! It scared me! But it seems to be the real deal, we are getting approved. I didn't feel like it was fair either. Not that I am unhappy but I feel for everyone waiting 6,7,8 months +. I truly hope everything picks up for everyone ASAP. I am grateful that we can all be here lifting and supporting one another regardless. Thank You and CONGRATULATIONS TOO!

Congratulations :)

This further adds to my theory that they are trying to lower their average by processing petitions from November/December.

Um Yeah... look through the timelines because I looked through about 30-40 of them... I Never said that everyone that filed in July- August has issues, I'm talking about those who have received NOA2s in April/March seem to have RFEs. Whereas, those recent NOA2s that are from Oct/Nov/Dec.. don't seem to have RFEs. It is what it is... Look for yourself and draw your own conclusion.

you are absolutely right i have notice that too

Congrats!

What the hell is happening? They have decided to completely ignore July to September applications, haven't they? This is never going to end, I won't be with my SO anytime soon, and now all these couples are just waltzing in and waiting only 4 months to get approved.

Congrats... That's wonderful news. You have nothing to be panicked about or feel like you are cutting the line... You likely frontloaded your petition extensively and received no RFEs. If you look through the timelines of those approved quickly, like yourself, none of them received RFEs and those from July, August that are just now getting NOA2s, almost All of them had a RFE along the way... Therefore, it appears that they are putting through cases that have no issues regardless of dates and it's taking longer for those which likely need more review. Be happy, you have received your NOA2 with lightening speed. I frontloaded ours as well so, I hope to have no RFE and be put through quickly although, ours is at VSC. Good luck to you and Congrats again. You are on your way. This is a time to rejoice. God Bless.

This is not true. CSC seems to be jumping over July - October. My case is very straightforward. No RFE's. Same with many others.
