    Well, I thought this would be over by now, but not for me, last day of February and still nothing . . . last thing on my case was "on April 9th case was received at local office".

    I can't help but overthink everything . . We also don't have kids at least not yet, but we do have an amazing adopted dog.

     

     

    I am in the same boat as you. Case transferred to Texas On December 13, 2018 and no word since then. 

     

    I know I should stay positive, but I am getting very anxious and discouraged.

    Not that from what I have been hearing recently if there has been a child born within the marriage that the immigration officers are not even looking at the other information I’ve been told that by six different people this

    I mean I guess that having children can help one's case, but look at the flip side: giving people RFEs for NOT having kids seems very unethical. Imagine if you're a couple that doesn't want kids, or you're planning to have them later, or you're having trouble conceiving. 

     

    In my opinion -- and again, this is just my opinion -- prioritizing some people for having kids while penalizing others for not having them is a slippery slope.

    I think the best advice is to join or to create a N400 local office specific forum. For those who filed for naturaluzation, we get specific information about how long the whole process takes. i will still contribute and participate in this November 2017 filers but once you are in the combo situation, the whole game changes and we need more information about our own cities.

    It's really starting to look like I should go that route. At least with N400, we can submit everything online.

    It feels like I'm gonna be all alone by myself and waiting and loosing hope... I guess I better start making plans of in case of deportation...

    Try not to worry. You're not alone. I am still waiting, too. 

     

    And your journey will not end with deportation! I agree with the other folks who posted--it is a waiting game. I am feeling very frustrated, but my husband and I did everything we could. The ball is in their court now.

    Good morning fellow Nov-17 filers,

     

    Just thought I'd share some somewhat encouraging news for all of you who got transferred to TSC on 12/13/2018. My EAC case (EAC18048* batch) was approved on Friday. So although it clearly looks like Texas is moving slower than Vermont, it also seems like they are picking up the pace and slowly getting to the Oct/Nov cases. I also ran the numbers for the 18048* batch of cases and based on all the approved/RFE/open cases showing in the case tracker app, a rough estimate indicates that all of those cases should be adjudicated by mid-March (roughly 4 to 5 cases per day are processed). The end is near! Congrats to all who got approved, good luck to everyone else who is still anxiously waiting... Should be no more than a month or 2 tops.

     

    This is helpful, thank you. Always good when VJ members are able to shed some light on this very mysterious process. 

     

    But honestly, the thought of (potentially) waiting another two months...that means I won't hear anything until April and that is very upsetting.

    I just got my 10 years GC today! I was approved on Ferbruary 1st and I am surprised how quickly they sent it from Texas. It really feels good after all that stress, I was in the waiting list for over a year and now I can renew my DL, keep my job and travel without problems. I will start the naturalization process in a few weeks. I wish you all the same luck and don't lose hope. My number is EAC18066*****

    Yay! That's awesome. Gives me a little hope since my application was transferred over to Texas.

    Not everyone is ready to apply for N400 , it is true that the end of the tunnel but everyone's circumstances are different and some people prefer to wait or postpone it .

    Absolutely! People should do whatever makes the most sense for them and their particular situation. 😊 I was in the "postpone" camp, but I'm personally growing fed up with the wait for my ROC.

     

    Edited to add: For me, becoming a US citizen is an emotional matter, not just a practical or financial one. I'm sure other folks feel this way too.

    Honestly, it's actually pretty depressing watching January 2018 and February 2018 filers being approved whilst October 17 and November 17 are still waiting.  I find myself avoiding this site for a while just because it stresses me out.

     

    I've sat and imagined a perfect storm of issues for my case - stuff like they haven't updated my case on the site and sent an RFE but it didn't reach me because they forgot to put the apartment number on - worst case scenario stuff.  I've come close a few times to contacting them but I've seen August, September and October filers in a similar position to me - where nothing happened on their case whilst everyone else was being transferred or approved - but they eventually get an approval out of the blue.

     

    Maybe sometime soon...in the meantime, got to keep positive and carry on.

    We are in the same boat. It's tough to "keep calm and carry on" when you see so many approvals come through, yet you're still in limbo. But I agree, staying positive is best. 

     

    I sent in my ROC in early November 2017 to VSC, then was transferred to Texas in mid-December 2018. Zero updates since then. UGH!

    I have been watching this thread for a while and would like to say thank you everyone for all the useful information you have provided so far.

    Without checking out this page I would probably have been very depressed because of the long wait for the approval of my case.

    Yesterday I received an email from my lawyer saying that my case have been approved and I should receive the 10-year green card in the next 60 days.

    I'm so excited!! My receipt number is WAC18046*****. Though I never received any notice directly from the USCIS. They sent the notice of approval to my lawyer.

    My case status hasn't been updated online either. Hopefully it will in the next couple days or weeks.

    For those who are still waiting, hang on there and your turn will come soon!!

     

    I'm still waiting and it's getting very frustrating to see December 2017 and January 2018 filers approved before me. But I'll try to stay calm and patient.
