Nope, I'm still waiting for NOA2. It has been over 7 months now. Really frustrating!!

Has anyone else from Sep/Oct/Nov received it?

Received an email as well last night. They have routed my cases to Nebraska Service Center.

I'm not happy either about Trump's selection as next US president but it is what it is. My fear is same as yours. I just hope he does not bring changes in immigration laws that could affect our applications in a negative way.

Any news ? Pls update

I think November filers for K visas are getting approved . Nebraska is too slow with IR 5.

Hi, just checkin' if you have heard anything from NVC about your mom's petition. You were ahead of me at submitting the requirements so I'm tracking your updates :P. I mailed the papers for both my parents' petitions mid April and still haven't got any email.

A ray of hope for us November 2016 filers whose files are stuck at Nebraska Service Center, they are processing cases as of 31st October 2016 (I checked just now). My file was received on 4th November. So I am keeping my fingers crossed and hoping to receive some good news in 2-3 weeks from them if not earlier. But you never know:unsure:

 

Anyone cares to share some updates, just to boost up our confidence??

Hello everyone. I filed for my father on November 28,2016. So far haven't had any updates besides NOA1.  I called USCIS "misinformation" line today and she told me that Nebraska service center is currently processing Sep 2015!! I asked her to repeat, honestly couldn't belive what I heard. Soooo hoping this is NOT the case!
