They won't deny you right away. You will probably get RFE first if your file is not complete. TSC is really slow! I remember seeing the same month filer as me and only got approved at TSC after my interview date..

Hey do not even think about denial...it takes so long to get approval now...

we were in Texas Service Center as well ... and finally got approved one week ago,

if you want to know we were waiting almost 7 months for NOA2...it looks like they are really busy there...

so just think that anyway the biggest waiting is in past, if you are waiting about 6 months now so be sure your approval will come veryyyy sooon :))))))))

I heard tsc is having massive backlog.

I'm constantly worried. Hope there's nothing wrong with our petition.

Your wait is not extraordinary, if you do a search here -- you'll find I-129F petitioners/beneficiaries that waited 8 or 9 months for an NOA2.

Remain patient, you'll get that notice.

If you are already passed the average estimate waiting time of the USCIS, I suggested you've started contacting them and inquire your case. You can also involved your congressmen regarding your petition. That would give you a peace of mind.

Why do you think you might get denied? Are there any reasons for your thinking? Probably not... so relax! My NOA2 took 6 months, and many people waited even longer than that last year. You'll be fine.

year. You'll be fine.

You got my point. I'm pointing out if anybody got denied after 5 months waiting. I have read of course that a lot waited longer even up to a year for NOA2.

Since nobody said that they experience or heard that somebody got denied after 5 months of waiting, I guess I'm safe for denial.

No matter how short or long the wait is, still its frustrating. The advantage of others was, they passed the stressful waiting already and got their NOA2 while others are still in the wait until now.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts! :)
