@BINWAIVER my favorable recommendation arrived in the mail today. 14 days since it was sent. Nothing about the NOA yet.

Thank you for sharing with me. I received NOA yesterday. I don't expect the paper FR can received. I inquired the pdf version by email and received yesterday, too. Just keep finger crossed to wait for the USCIS processing........

My timeline is below. Unfortunately, I am still waiting for the advisory opinion and  I have seen on this forum that people that filed a few days after me already got an opinion from the DoS. Tomorrow will be 10 weeks after all documents have been received. Do you think that I should send an e-mail and ask for my status? I actually did that 2.5 weeks ago but got the standard reply that 6-8 weeks is just an estimation and for some cases the case might take longer. Any suggestions for me?

You can send email to them and inquiry the result because it is beyond normal processing time.

I understand the feeling. They are very disorganized and sometimes things just disappear. But, if it makes you feel better, we are not the first ones waiting longer for the notice of action. I can let you know as soon as I receive the mail. The other thing that you can do is to call USCIS and ask for the receipt number. 

Thanks a lot.  I called USCIS on last Friday. The T1 service cannot get any information from the name and DOB.

Neither. Nothing yet.

I begin to worry about it. When I mail my application package to USDOS first time, they lost it. 

Hi @j1waiver2018, 

 Did you receive your FR in self-stamped letter or I-797C from USCIS? My case showed USDOS sent FR on Nov. 26, but I have nothing received.
