14/6/17 I-130 sent RM next day delivery
15/6/17 I-130 Delivered
17/6/17 Police certificate requested
20/6/17 credit card payment taken and notice of receipt email received
24/6/17 NOA2 approval received!!!!! Dated 22/6/17 so only TWO DAYS AFTER CREDIT CARD PAYMENT TAKEN!!!

I have no idea how it's possible the I-130 has been approved in just 10 days from the day I posted it but I have to assume it might have to do with the fact we've previously been approved an IR-1 visa at the London embassy 3 years ago so we might already have a file and been fast tracked?
