USCIS App Still shows "Case Was Received"

I wanted to thank you for providing the level of detail in your data especially the graphs. I no longer have to sort the data to see where my case is since you break down the activity for each day of the month for all our individual case filing dates. This is very much appreciated.
Seeing the data you are posting here to the level of detail you offer allows each of us to know where we stand in the process and see the daily progress of USCIS.
Now at day 117 our frustration level is shared with everyone else here. We can only pray that USCIS continues picking up the pace so that all of us can move on to the next steps in this painful process and finally be with the one we love so much in our heart.
 
Best wishes to everyone here in receiving your NOA2 in an expedited manner.
 
Thank you again for taking the time and effort from your daily schedule in putting together this data for us.
I know this is helping to ease some of our pain and frustration that we all are experiencing with USCIS.

Latest stats for 5/8 are in the folder.

Below is the link to the Google Drive folder where I will be putting my scanned data and analysis at the end of each business day. The scan takes about 30 minutes and then another few minutes to move into Google Drive. Expect to see new data around 11 PM Central Time (12 AM Eastern).
 
I don't want anyone volunteering to be backups because 1) I am mainly doing this for myself so that I am not dependant on anyone else, 2) I trust my own work better than anyone else's, 3) I am doing this for fun because I am bored and waiting for USCIS (so if others were doing this, I would not have fun doing it myself) and 4) I see my effort as a backup to what others are already doing. 
 
What I will be uploading is my own creation, from scratch, so it will not resemble the format of what others have been posting.

Hi. I'm a January Filer and was not aware that there were more than 1,000 more cases filed in Feb. 
Trying to remain positive as our case was received Jan 11th and its been 112 days now and we are still waiting on our NOA2 or something.
To give you a snap shot of USCIS progress for us Jan Filers as of 04/21
:
Total Cases File    = 3,622
Untouched Cases = 2137
Approved               = 703
Rejected                 = 471
RFE / REJ              = 198
Other                       = 113 
Avg Cases touched per day = 145  
 
I feel these are very difficult times especially since USCIS over the past week has only approved a few cases, we've been seeing a lot of RFE's.
I wish all of you a speedy NOA2, best advise if try keeping yourself busy with your work and being supportive of one another. Trust me you are all going to be tested when you see cases above and below yours being approved while your still waiting on your case to be touched.
 
All the best to all of you February filers for a speedy NOA2.
I'm hoping that we receive our NOA2 in the next week or so.

@AkesAngel.. Please correct me if I'm mistaken but I feel confused with the reveal hidden content on last update on May 3rd and May 2nd that you've posted since the last two days.
 
On May 2nd, it's written on your post the case untouched/left for January 17th is 55, the case left for January 18th is 10. 
 
But then when I read your post for May 3rd, I feel confused because on reveal hidden content said case untouched for January 17th is 89 and for January 18th is 69. 
 
I'm sorry if I talk too much. I hope you could help my confusion. Thanks in advance

I couldn't agree more. Lets see what return comments I get back on my post. I would think @glmg21 would appreciate the help.

The detailed information is available on how to run the scans if they are willing to share it with you.
 
My point is there should be someone appointed and trained how to run the scans that would make sense for our entire group and be able to help out when the primary person designated to run the scans is tied up.
 
This just makes sense in my opinion.

Hey we all feel your pain. We are now at day 108 and this is also tearing us apart.
My fiance said that she was going to take a break last week from VJ and she returned the next day. This is an addition at least until we all get our NOA2.
 
Hang tough my friend we have to be strong for those who love us.

Useful Information for anyone with cases that are 30 Days or greater beyond their estimated adjudication date 
 
Hey I noticed that you are now 30 days beyond your expected decision date. You should call USCIS first and ask them to find out the status of your case. If that fails you have a right to contact the Ombudsman office for help.
 
Although they state you have to wait 60 days past USCIS processing times they won't turn you away for help. They are the overseeing agency ensuring USCIS is doing their job.
 
Here is the link with their contact information. If I were you I would submit a request for them to look into your case:
 
https://www.dhs.gov/case-assistance 
 
Let me know if they were able to assist you.  Good luck!!!!!

I understand your point, if USCIS was doing their job in a timely manner yes this is a "black hole of nonsense". I'm searching for the same thing that everyone else is, receiving our NOA2 and coming together with the person that is more dear to me and who I love with my entire being. Yeah I know where the demand for jobs is and they should have a "want add" hanging on their door based on the pace USCIS is moving.
Once all of us get our NOA2 we will no longer be glued to our computers mining senseless data while trying to figure out when our case will get pulled.
 
We're hoping to have our NOA2 next week, there are only 12 Jan 11 filers so our number has to be pulled in the next week or so. After that all of this data mining will be history.
 
I pray that USCIS process's all of our cases, including yours, over the next couple of weeks!!! 
 
Good luck my friend.

If you case is approaching 60 days past the USCIS processing times you should contact the office of Ombudsman . They are the overseeing agency ensuring USCIS is doing their job.
 
Here is the link with their contact information

Although I am a January Filer I thought to pass this information along to your group to see if they can help expedite your case.

That is so awesome!!!!  I'm sure you and your fiancee are now celebrating this long awaited next step.
 
We wish you both a speedy next steps all the way through with her POE.
 
Please keep us all posted. 

Good luck to everyone tonight. I know I will hoping for approval
Not looking forward to another long weekend still waiting

Looking at the data and to clarify these are cases that are still listed "AS Received" or otherwise not been touched.
 
I can't believe there are 51 filers for Jan 3rd that have not been touched yet 32 untouched for Jan 13th. I wish I knew what process if any USCIS uses to review each case. Obviously they are putting more effort into the earlier filers however you would think the Jan 3rd filers would have a lower number compared to a Jan 12 filer.
If anyone could crack the code on how USCIS process's these cases I would certainly like to know what that is.
 
Well the good news is they are chipping away at all Jan Filers at a pretty good rate now so we should all have a response from USCIS in the next couple of weeks......I would hope.
 
Congratulations to all of those Jan Filers that received approval this week and for the rest of us just keep praying and remain optimistic.  

Wow that is so cool reading your comments. Yes the site has been a tremendous help to all of us while we are waiting on the fence.
 
You and your loved one are very deserving of this and received just in time for your next visit. Enjoy your time together and make sure you never forget these tough times that we will all look back on when we are finally united with the ones we love so much.
 
We wish you both a speedy next steps!!!!!

Wow that is so awesome. You guys must be so happy. The process if finally beginning for the two of you and you're off to the finish line.
 
Good luck with a speedy POE.  All the best
 
And for the rest of us our time is coming I can feel it. We're all getting so close now.

We're in the same boat. We are stuck in the middle with cases above and below ours approved.
Can't get discouraged, just look at it this way, we are all in a much better situation then we were a month ago. At least now USCIS is averaging 150 cases for Jan Filers being worked each day. With the remaining cases that are untouched we should all have a response over the next 2 weeks.
Hang tough. This is the longest part of the process to finally be with our loved ones. 
We will always remember these times in years to come.

Congrats to the both of you as well.
What a feeling it must be to get through this milestone.
A speedy POE for your fiance

If thats your argument, the same could be said for you looking for help - hire a lawyer and get all the help you need. 
 
Most of us do not have someone who we can relate to having gone through this process. 
 
Very well, we can call it your directly aggressive post if that makes you feel better about it. 
 
Appreciate it and congrats on the noa2/good luck with the remainder of the process. 

Wow what a passive aggressive post. Did not realize there was such strict rules to this forum and that every single post had to be valuable to everyone.
 
I, as im sure many others, use this forum as a means to gather/share info but also as an outlet for dealing with the emotional immigration process.
