Same boat here, NOA1 was received May 14th, we really hope for the NOA2 soon. We also hired a lawyer thinking it would help a little bit but I guess we were mistaking.

To answer your question, here is an interesting facts that our lawyer told us yesterday:

"I can no longer venture a guess as to when the I-130 will be approved. With that said, over the past 35+ years I've been doing this, I regularly see immigration (and the Consulates) slow down tremendously between November 15 & January 15. From what I've heard, this is when the Senior Officers take vacation/leave time and the Junior Officers are afraid to 'touch' the files that are sitting on the Senior Officer's desk.

Thus, if we don't hear something in the next few weeks, we probably won't hear something before next year."

So... Fingers crossed for an update within the next few weeks... ?

If you fill out your timeline it will give you a good idea when to expect your NOA2... this data is based on the sampling on this website... best of luck! you're not alone, everyone has to go those the long wait. take this time to build supporting evidence for your interview and prep your documents for the next process.

How do you make the time line?

[jkelly07 120]

if you received your approval noa2 letter may 6 2013 then you need to call the nvc it's now 6 months nov.are you sure it was noa2 or noa-1 call first or make a appointment to infopass.

It was the noa-1 im still waiting for the noa-2

Its still a little early if you turned in your papers in June then look forward to hearing something around January 2014. I am in the same boat but I turned in papers for my wife in Guyana in July. You have to be patient if you have not heard anything around that time then you can contact immigration. Millions of people are going through the same process as you and its not an easy one. But your day will come! If you use this same website time line it will give you an estimate date of when you hear back about something. Last I look for me it said March/April but its changes a few times February/March. Do the time line of when you mailed off the paper work and when you got the NOA1. Use this time to prepare for the next steps and hang in there.

How long after getting case complete at nvc will Guyana give me an interview date?
