Processing Estimates/Stats :

Based on timeline data, your I130 may be adjudicated between March 5, 2017 and March 21, 2017*.  If this date range has passed or your application is past due per USCIS processing times then you should consider calling the USCIS to inquire on your petition. If you have been approved please update your timeline.

 

Visajourney prediction may as well be the whole month of MARCH .....not happy. Time to go and do something else ....... will return again once I have an update. Good luck all, have a drink on me ;-)

At this point, I would be overjoyed to have our visa by August.

I join you all in being kept in suspense, as according to the USCIS app, the two files before ours were recently approved. PD 8/5. The wait continues . . .

same situation here  so many after me , they already approved my pd is the 2nd

Finalllyyyy approved 2/6/17 with PD of 8/5/16. Was on the phone with my wife just around midnight last night and heard her begin to scream. I thought there was a spider in her room (she hates those). "Check the App, we're approved!". Interestingly enough I checked the app at around 6pm eastern time thinking any approval wouldn't come in for the rest of the day. Didn't think I would find it at midnight.  Looks like they approved a good amount of apps yesterday. I continue to keep my fingers crossed for all going through this journey

Congrats! I also noticed a lot of approvals from yesterday, among them some from our PD.

I wish there was an option to pay double the price of the I-130 and wait half of time!  don't know if i should call or not once it reaches 6 months

I have some news that might help some of you. There has been a debate going about whether or not a spouse can visit the US on a B1/B2 tourist Visa. Many people said that if you apply for a tourist Visa while your I-130 is being processed, they'll deny the tourist Visa.

 

Well that is not true. I was in the same boat as all of you. I figured we'd pay the fee to apply for the B1/B2, set up the interview, and worst case scenario they'd say no. 

 

I sent my husband to Sydney and he brought a ton of papers to prove that he would be returning to Australia at the end of his stay in the US (that's what approval is based on). This included an employment letter, return flight ticket, etc. He said they didn't even LOOK at the paperwork. It took about 15 minutes. They said "So you're planning on returning to Australia?" When he said "yes", they approved him. He can now return to the US for I believe it's 6 months. His Visa will arrive within 10 days and he will be home in 2-3 weeks! Of course this is Australia, and every embassy is different. But I thought I would throw this out there to everyone else in the same situation. Maybe it'll help someone.

You can sit around and wait for the phone to ring (End of the Line)
Waiting for someone to tell you everything (End of the Line)
Sit around and wonder what tomorrow will bring (End of the Line)
Maybe a diamond ring

THERE FOR TOMORROW LYRICS    - "Waiting"

 

We're staring down constantly
With palms open and resting feet
Glancing up once and a while
To find some sense of reconcile

 

Open our eyes to see what's left
Looking for just one sign of breath
As soon as we think its okay
We'll head our separate ways

 

What are we waiting for
There's a knock from Nebraska at our door !

 

ok I added Nebraska ,,, cheesey award winner ..... trying to lift the spirits .....
