Posting for a friend of mine: filed in early December and no news at all yet: no RFE, no transfer letter, and no approval. I advised her to put in a service request right away. Seems like December 2011 filers are taking forever! Good luck to everyone still waiting!

As long as the case was transferred more than 180 days ago then for sure, put in a service request, or involve congressman rightaway. Your friend can also inquire about the last action taken on her case when calling USCIS just to make sure she has not missed out on anything.

But you are right indeed - December filer cases are taking a long time being adjudicated. I reckon the delay is most likely due to the workload of the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals Process, and the preparation for it.

K1 process, October 2010 > POE, July 2011

I-129F approved in 180 days from NOA1 date. (195 days from filing to NOA2 in hand)

Interview took 224 days from I-129F NOA1 date. (241 days from filing petition until visa in hand)

From filing I-129F petition until POE: 285 days

AOS process, December 2011 > July 2012

EAD/AP Approval took 51 days from NOA1 date to email update. (77 days from filing until EAD/AP in hand)

AOS Approval took 206 days from NOA1 date to email update. (231 days from filing until greencard in hand)

From filing I-129F petition until greencard in hand: 655 days

Congrats Sunshine and MikeIanNida on your approvals. Randy, good luck with your medicals! Do you think they can hand deliver them to your case manager to prevent any more mishaps? :P

Total elapsed time between filing I-129F to GC in hand 569 days or 1 Year, 6 months, 22 days.

I'll trade the medal for a discounted ROC fee without blinking an eye. The petition/visa took less time for you than the AOS stage. :blink:

Btw, you're in Indiana, right? I just had my driver's license renewed and it's valid until 2019. I thought they went by the expiratin date on greencard but it might be as long as I can show proof og being LPR, at least that's how they explained it to me. If you have or get a driver's license, will you please let me know how many years yours is valid for? Just out of curiousity.
