I'm like you, just a stamp, no green card.

About the processing time, you know it's weird because I've seen people who (according to the USCIS website) have a waiting time of 9-14 months for example, but got approved in like 4 months.. I know every file is different but it's strange how they process cases.

my understanding is NBC will send i751 ad i400 to your local office. then your local office will schedule the interview base on their availability. 

I guess people don't get update notifications when case is transferred from NBC to local office, right? In that case, we will not know when the case is moved to local office only until we receive local office interview notice.

After seeing so many people case transfer to NSC center and get approved after me, already get their card in hand that makes me really nervous. I could not help myself thinking about that must be something wrong with my case. Glad to see I am NOT the only one. I will try to call NSC service center tomorrow, I REALLY need to know if something is going on. By the way, I hope you will get your card soon!

Not necessary, I haven't filled N400 form but my case was transferred to NCS and I received "We completed preliminary review..., we transfer your case for a standard part of processing."

 

But the place your case was transferred is NCS. What I tried to distinguish is between N 400 and non- N400 which are all transferred to NBC.

That was what had me confused intially. It is making better sense now, Thank you.

I called them today and I was told that even if your case is approved but before they order the card for you, they will review your case again if they find something odd then they will need to review or investigate the case. So this will delay us from getting the card. I do not know if she is telling the truth but I am kinda freaking out right now. I really do not know what to do next…

Maybe it has something to do with wrong dates on green cards that were printed? Maybe it’s delayed it a bit? (Based in your early April approval)

USCIS

January 8th 2014 - NOA1

July 10th 2014 - NOA2

NVC

July 17th 2014 - Case shipped to NVC

July 30th 2014 - Case received by NVC

August 13th 2014 - Case number and IIN received by email

August 13th 2014 - DS-261 Form Completed

August 14th 2014 - AOS Fees Invoiced and Paid

September 17th 2014 - IV Fees Invoiced and Paid

September 19th 2014 - DS260 Completed

October 6th 2014 - AOS and IV Packages Received

November 28th 2014 - AOS and IV Checklist (4 items in total. 3 for documents they lost. Called on December 9 and a rep said no checklist for IV....go figure)

December 8th 2014 - Checklist scan date.

December 30th 2014 - Case Compl........NOT. So after not having an interview date yet, I called again on Jan 30th and apparently its in final review with a supervisor.

March 27 2015 - Interview Date

I really do not know but I saw some people on this site got their case transfer to NBC center just like me. One month later then me, they already got their card! They were approved at the beginning of May.
