Waiting for the NOA2 is the worst part of this... because there is no transparency... and no way to know when. Everything is else is easy, most of the time you can expect things to happen within a certain timeframe. So people leave because they don't need the support anymore. But I'll stay because I owe it to the site for keeping me sane during the wait.

You should probably go to your regional forum and read the information there, it will be specific for your needs in this part of the process. The embassy website will have information as well about the k1 interview.Beneficiary will fill forms such as ds160, ds230 and gather other documents needed, you both can start looking at them and have it all together by the time they're needed.

Pop over to the Philippines forum, make it your new hang out.

WOOHOOOO! Let's hope Rush Hour is next. I'm so glad for you Myrie. Thanks for congratulating me on my promotion... it's my first management job... so I'm really nervous about it.... I'm only 26.. don't have much experience. Let's hope my work ethic pulls me through!

DAY 105 - I've been waiting for that bright sunshine to show up and shine in my back door someday - Luther Allison
And wouldn't ya know it, it's cloudy today. If USCIS has its way, it's going to be cloudy for a long time. WOW! So much good news coming from everyone. Approvals, interviews, and even a job promotion. Life is truly good. Congratulations to all!!!
11 days to Beijing
I'm am so excited!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Congrats JollyRajah for your NOA2 and the job promotion!

Wow! CONGratulations! ?

Congrats JollyRajah!
Received my NOA2 approval notice in the mail today, 5 days after the online notice.

Congrats!!!

I am happy you are here.
This group is a really great group

I'm glad to be here too, I'm an early May filer but the May filers have no spirit, so I'm joining you guys.

PRAISE THE LORD!!!! WE JUST GOT APPROVED..
Also, I followed TheJollyRajah's advice!
THANKS EVERYONE FOR ALL YOUR SUPPORT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
RUSH HOUR you should try calling next week as well, maybe it will help!

Well I'm happy you guys tried calling, because it didn't hurt my case... so it won't hurt yours.. if anything they'll get yours done faster so they won't have to deal with you. So who knows, you may get your NOA2 in the next few days.... fingers crossed... I hope you guys get it. I'd call once a week until you do. Be an annoyance.

So I just went off on the Customer Service(haha) rep.at USCIS. told her everything from I can build a car faster, grass grows faster, you took my money and ran, if you go one day over 5 months I am going to hire a lawyer and sue you, etc etc etc. Then I realized and said "why am I even calling you? because you are giving me nothing---NOTHING. Then I used foul language(go figure - from me - a New Yorker) and she threatened to hang up on my. Then I apologized for her being the brunt of my anger and I HUNG UP ON HER!!!!!!
looking back, I probably added another 3 months to my sentence. Oh well, I feel better!

AOS, and all that stuff is fine with me, at least my fiance will be here to help me do it.

I did a bit of a search for these issues, and some were mentioned a long time ago.
I use Igor's list to get an estimate of when people are getting approved, and how many people are still stuck at the 2+ month range at the CSC. I've noticed several issues:
Date Sorting
In the "Last 15" section, there are entries which are sorted incorrectly (for example, currently the 'latest' result is "2015-6-23", which is really meant to be "06-23" but since "6" lexically follows "06", it displays. This is probably fixable in the SQL itself (to normalize the date format before sorting).
Approval dates in the future
There are timelines which have approval dates in the future. This messes up the "Last 15" list. It should be possible to either prevent people from placing dates in the future in the timeline, or to modify the SQL accordingly so that dates in the future.
Inactive Timelines
As mentioned in other threads, some users no longer exist, while it's also evident that some users simply haven't logged in within a given timeframe. I suggest that by default, pending timelines (i.e. timelines which don't yet have an approval) should only be displayed if the associated account logged in within the past month (there should be an option to override this). This will make the graphs near closer to 100% for previous months, and clearly highlight those that are waiting actively.
Provide CSV Export
In lieu of making all these interface changes, allowing the possibility of exporting to CSV could be helpful for folks like me to import into a local database and filter locally.
I might be able to help with some of these changes, if y'all are interested (I'm fairly busy, but I'm hoping these are all fairly trivial things to implement).

congrats to all those that got approved!! longest part done! now, fight with NVC lol

It seems my bitching worked! APPROVED!

DAY 99 - 99 bottles of beer on the wall, 99 bottles of beer, if one of those bottles should happen to fall...
Maybe it will fall on my petition and cause someone to look at it. Hope we all hear some news today. Fingers crossed again. Arthritis is starting to set in from keeping them crossed for so long. Hey USCIS! I'm not getting any younger!
17 Days to Beijing

Congrats, I hope mine is completed soon.
