No worries here and count your blessings. I feel bad about even mentioning it when there are still lots of Junebugs waiting also.

Knowing USCIS, there are a handful of couples still waiting from before the Louisiana Purchase.

I can't either. Seriously if they can't find everything out about a person in a month at most then they probably aren't going to find anything new in the next 7-8 months.

Yeah unbelievable. But there is positively nothing we can do but wait and wait and wait...

And I think the sadder part is, this process didn’t use to suck.... 

Man, I would love to know when the process didn't suck... Would have loved a five month turn-around..

I saw a few cases in the past where from the point they filed petition to P.O.E. was around four months. Imagine those lucky peeps.

It's hard to believe that really happened, but I have seen timelines from 2016 and earlier that were 4-5 months.  We couldn't even get a NOA2 in 4-5 months.
