Hello Everyone - Especially my dear September!!
 
Friday was so good for all of us!! I hope everyone who is still waiting are feeling strong and positive!!
Although my data right now is only June-August, we saw approvals from May-August this week!
August started even stronger than July, and Yes we even saw people getting their noa2s under 180!
This is a new record! Even better than how July started!
 
The latest date touched is August 15, and it's only been a week since we started seeing movement in August!
They are already half way into the month! 
 
There are two ways this can fall,
1) They will stop at 8/15 and do the first overall from 1-15 which they did in May but was a disaster so I hope this won't happen
2) They will continue with this speed, and They will reach the end of the month in about 2 weeks ( because there's 13 more work days left in August cases) and we will see them moving strong and fast...
 
For September only - I would say I am expecting timelines to go back about 10 days. And for September to start around last week of February to beginning of March.
These are all my personal estimations based on what we've seen so far and not about how it will be for every single case. Please give about at least 1 month for your case to be touched before panicking from the day they first touched your NOA1 date.
 
NVC times
Other than some people waiting for their case numbers a while longer than some after NVC received their cases, most NOA2- NVC  times are back to normal.
6-14 days seems like the average at the moment.
 
These calculations are only the cases that are updated online, There are lots of approvals and RFE's that are not updated!

(Only up to September at the moment - I'm updating other months at the moment)
(I use ID# in the same order as WAC-and instead put the receive dates (in some cases last update before the first scan in October))
 

So, an update on my fiancé's interview yesterday:
His scheduled time was at 10am, and he got to the embassy at 9:30am...then, they didn't call him up until 11:30am - he was the last person there, apparently!  When he finally did get called up, it was a short interview (just like many have reported): how'd you meet, where is she from, what does she do for work, etc.  Apparently they were a bit confused as to why I had a co-sponsoring I-134 - my income is over the threshold but I put one in just to be safe - not necessary, I guess!  His medical from Monday hadn't arrived yet, but they said if it had they would have given him the visa right then and there.  Expecting it in the mail when he gets back home next week  

My fiancé had his medical yesterday (haven't gotten the full recap from him yet, but sounds like it went fine) in Auckland and dropped his documents off at the U.S. embassy.  He got an email with his interview time today scheduled for February 15th (so about 3 and a half weeks out).  We were bummed because we were planning to take a trip that weekend with my parents...so he emailed the embassy and asked if they had anything earlier.  So now he's got an interview on January 25th
 
Pretty surreal being near the end of this all! 

An update for NZ people... @MarksMate @Kat&Joel @MM&CS
 
After our case was "Ready" this morning, my fiancé emailed Auckland's immigrant visa unit (AucklandIV@state.gov) to ask to get the Packet 3 documents emailed to him - they responded with them only a few minutes later!  If anyone wants to take a look at them, I could find a way to share them  He's scheduled his medical in Auckland for this coming Monday.

I really will try! Not sure the White house will help much, currently they are too busy trying to figure out why our president is orange.  
 
Cheers
