Mine is still being actively reviewed and hoping to see a post that a March filer got approved soon.

It is now March 2025 and has been a year since we all filed. Any updates? No progress yet on my case, still being actively reviewed.

Cases take around 17 months to get adjudicated nowadays. So most likely you'll hear something close to September / October this year.

Still patiently waiting.

I was excited today because I received an email from USCIS telling me 

"We have taken an action on your case. Sign in to your account to view your case status"

The only update was the date, it previously states March 13, 2024 and it was now updated to May 14, 2025 but it still states Case Is Being Actively Reviewed.

😅

Did you check the documents tab? Are you sure there isn't a RFE or approval notice there? If not it shouldn’t be too much longer - approx 16-17 months is the average so hopefully you’ll hear in the summer. 
 

Then the NVC stage is super quick, and the wait for interview stage can also be super quick or can be really long depending on the consulate. 
 

If you fill your timeline in then you’ll be able to get more info.

same i got two emails about it. I checked document tab and all tabs but I could not find anything. It might take time to show up.

Received another email today again "We have taken an action on your case. Sign in to your account to view your case status" and this time it's for real!

Congratulations!! What is your PD, if I may ask? And what service center?

That must be exciting, hope it's a smooth and quick ride from here onwards.

Earlier today it says 4months, I checked just now and says

 

"Estimated time until your case decision:18 Months

This is an estimate and will be periodically updated as we process your case."

Anyone with same estimated time?

Ignore the ‘My Progess’ bar completely! It’s horrendously unreliable, I wish they’d just get rid of it as all it does is induce anxiety.

Agree with @appleblossom

MyProgress estimate does not make any sense. On day of my oath for citizenship, it showed 3 weeks until decision.

Thank you guys! Got an email from USCIS that they have taken action. When i check, still says 18mos but in the documents tab there's an approval notice.😊 03/11/2024 - 05/24/2025 - California Service Center

And that's the perfect example of the My Progress tab being pointless. The day you get approval it changes to 18 months left. 😂

 

Congrats!
