Anyone has any idea of the timelines for this? I never hoped to get an answer in 2-4 weeks and was silently waiting for the 60 day mark, and now it's day 63 and still nothing. These people are out of this world

Are they using carrier pigeons?

I just want to vent that the incompetence of our government is downright cruel and a real waste of people living happy lives that we don't get again.

They're not going to, unfortunately. And they never were going to. It wasn't a reasonable goal and we all knew it. It was just a government agency blowing smoke to placate people.
 
Reducing the backlog from 15 months to 6 months in less than a year would require nearly 2,500 cases processed per week. We barely clear 700. Theres a bunch of people analyzing numbers each week in addition to myself, and we all seem to have roughly similar data. If the trend continues (which, I don't see why it wouldn't. We haven't been given any indications of change.) the backlog will still grow by 0.25 - 0.5 months per month. I don't see the backlog going away at all, much less be reduced to something as low as 6 months. 
 
I hate to be the negative downer, but unfortunately this is just the reality of it. K1 visas are not a priority to USCIS. If you watch the latest USCIS videos, the "fireside chat," it is an hour and 15 minutes of them patting themselves on the back with how great they did in FY2022. They talk about what a great job they did with the work visas and not allowing EADs to expire. I personally think the only thing we can hope for is premium processing offered for K1s. I'm not sure if they'll ever do it though. I'd certainly pay $10k to not have to wait ~18+ months. 
 
Again, very sorry to give nothing but bad news. It's not fun for me either. 

I've got my number today. 63 days since Noa2, Belgrade embassy. 

We are Sept 6 as well and I decided to email the NVC research email on Monday 10/31 to see if our case reached them. They responded yesterday that it has reached them and is awaiting data entry into their system.  I think we just wait for their welcome email after entry into their system and then we will be able to get our case number and will be able to log in to another website where we will see if it is in transit to the embassy.  

The processing time is now 15 months…

Timeline: NOA1- 26-07-2021
                  NOA2- 14-10-2022
 
Its been a long and draining journey, having to be past this long step is really heartwarming...Never loose faith guys, your time is definitely coming!!!!!
 
Any advice on what I can do in the meantime as we waiting for NVC to issue case number?

Sharing some news - yesterday, via NVC research mail I got confirmation that NVC received our case.
Our NOA2 date is 6th September. So that's some 37 days from approval.

Class action lawsuit!!  Cant wait any longer!  No faith in anything anymore 

Congrats! Now anxiously waiting to see people post updates in the SEPTEMBER 2022 K1 NOA2 to NVC to EMBASSY post in a month or so.

Your POE is wherever the plane lands in (or the vehicle crosses into) the U.S. or its territories.  Any border city with an international bridge or highway, or any airport that receives international flights, is a POE.
 
You may arrange the immigrant's flights as you like.  Search for reviews of various POEs here:

This is incredible, 200+ cases touched in a single day, and about 150ish closed. If they kept this up and maybe closed around 200 a day they could start to actually put a dent in the backlog.
 
Well here's hoping.

Noa1 9th July 
Noa2 6th September
 
If I could I would share this good feeling with all the couples still waiting, to encourage you and keep you strong till your day comes. Nobody outside this process can really understand what we are going through and how it feels.
Special thanks to all the people doing daily updates. I've been actively (midly put) reading and following since January, one long journey I'm happy to finish. Good luck guys!
