Hi all, 

I just received my NOA1 hard copy in the mail yesterday Sept. 10, 2018.
My application was received by the lockbox facility Aug 30 and I got my text/email notification on Sept. 5th. My case was sent to the California Service Center. Anyone know if the California office is much faster with approving i-129f's?

Good Luck to Everyone!😊

@Joy18 We have almost the same dates :)  Our case was sent to the California Center too but I don't know if there are faster centers than others.

My understanding that as of right now there are only two centers working on 129Fs. California handles over 99% of them, the exceptions that require special processing going to Vermont (you don't want your case to go to Vermont)  First 3 letter of your receipt / case numbers indicate processing center, WAC being the one for California. 

 

Obviously this is subject to change, and this wasn't the case before in the years prior, but this is where we are now.

Congrats on your engagements and welcome to the hurry up and wait visa filing journey. Wishing you all good luck and my best advice, keep busy and prepare for the next stage as this initial stage to NOA2 is long and tortuous.

 

Read the forums,  country specific ones are very helpful. There's a tonne of help and advice here and any questions feel free to ask.
