It should not be. Read my above posts clearly. They update your case status on myuscis when they take action such as receiving your fingerprint fee. They would have updated your I485 date to reflect that date. Receiving your fingerprint fee will be a date after your NOA1 received date. 
 
Get well soon my dear😁

We actually emailed NVC through the queries website about a week after we got our NOA2, then NVC auto-updated us on the next few steps it took within NVC until it was sent to the Embassy.

Hi, my timeline is as follows:
 
I-129F Filed: 11 October 2017
NOA1: 16 October 2017
NOA2: 21 April 2018
NVC Received: 14 May 2018
NVC Case No. Assigned: 16 May 2018
NVC Left: 18 May 2018
USEM Singapore Received: 21 May 2018
Packet 3 Received:  24 May 2018
Packet 3 Response Sent: 25 May 2018 (USEM Singapore had a long weekend where they were closed, so they only received this on 31 May 2018)
Packet 4 Received: Still waiting!

In any case, I've updated my timeline!
My ACTUAL received date was 10/22 as it says on the printed NOA1s - sorry for the confusion!!
(I'm gonna use the fact that I've been battling a cold for 2 weeks and am kind of out of it as an excuse. 😅) 

I received my NOA1s today! Notice date is 10/29.

Update: I received the 3 text messages on 10/30! Just waiting for the NOAs in the mail now 🙏

Hi everyone! So glad to see familiar faces from the October 2017 I-129F thread!
I can't believe it's been a year since then, I will be filing the AOS package tomorrow then I'll feel a great burden lifted off my shoulders (again) since my I-94 expires early November 🤣

Hi all, just posting a mini update to show the timeline of when I got my visa on hand.
 
Interview date: 10 July 2018
 
After-interview update on CEAC Website:
10 July 2018: "Ready", case last updated date changed from 24 May 2018 to 10 July 2018.
12/13 July 2018: "Application Received", switched from "Immigrant Visa Application" to "Non-immigrant Visa Applicant", case created date changed from 21 May 2018 to 12 July 2018.
14 - 16 July 2018: "Administrative Processing"
17 July 2018: "Issued" - This is the last update I got.
 
Then on 21 July 2018 the courier delivered visa packet to my home.

So it took a total of 11 days from interview to VOH and 4 days from issued to VOH for my case.
 
All the best everyone else! 
 

Hi everyone! I just did my K-1 interview today and got my approval yay!
I used a joint-sponsor in my case so some of the interview questions were pertaining to it.
 
The person at counter 7 (document collection) asked me the following questions:
- Is the petitioner currently working?
- How is the joint sponsor related to the petitioner?
- Does the joint sponsor have any dependents?
 
Then for the actual interview at counter 8, I was asked:
- How did the petitioner and I meet?
- When did we meet for the first time in person? 
- Did the petitioner come visit me? When did he come over to meet me.
* She seemed a bit skeptical about our story, so I told her I had pictures of him visiting me and my family. She prompted me to show her our relationship evidence, so I showed her pictures of my fiance with my family, extended family, our boarding passes from when I left the USA and from when he left Singapore.
- Does the petitioner work? Where did he work before/what will he be working as soon?
- What does the joint-sponsor work as?
 
The lady at counter 8 had a very stern demeanor, she was pretty expressionless until she was convinced we were in a bona fide relationship, then she beamed when she told me that all my documents were in place and that I should expect my visa in about 2 weeks. I smiled so wide hahaha! 
That's all I remember for our interview, all the best everyone else!

Hi all, haven't been here in a bit, but I just want to say congratulations to everyone that have gotten their NOA2/approvals and all the best to the people still waiting!

I haven't been on this thread in a while. I hope everyone's progress is going smoothly. My fiance has been here for one week as of today. I just wanted to give my experience that we had with our local social security office. We went to apply for his ssn today and when we walked in at 9:30 A.M. we figured we would beat the crowd...wrong. It was packed. We waited for a little over 30 minutes before we were called. I was super nervous that we would get someone rude and uneducated on the K1 and just tell us no without listening. It was a younger man who was very friendly and he appreciated that we had everything with us including the i94. He continuously apologized for taking so long he just wanted to make sure he was doing it all right because he had never done one for a K 1 before. He even got his supervisor to look over everything. She said everything looked fine as long as we double checked making sure all information he entered was correct and they both told us it would be to us in the mail within 7-10 days. I can't speak for the Social Security Administration as a whole but we got lucky and had a very good experience with ours. I hope you all do too.

The wait is truly extremely frustrating, but once things get moving it's such a huge wave of relief. Hang in there!
 

Hello everybody! I had my interview yesterday in Frankfurt and WE ARE APPROVED!!!!!!!!!!!  I cried of happiness at the end. I will be entering the US on August 3rd. I can't believe I finally get to be with my love.  

Hi everyone, after everything and all the frustration. I can finally happily say that I've been approved. I feel such a heavy burden lifted off my chest I wanna cry. :')

So what started June 15, 2017 has ended today, July 10, 2018. Alex was delivered his visa today and we've purchased his ticket and he will arrive a week from today (July 17). Our courthouse wedding is August 14! This feels surreal.
