GOZO's is July 29th and approval date is 11/1. Pretty close to August.

Still nothing from August. I don't undersatnd what they do with the applications for 3 months. My guess is nothing and the whole process probably takes less than a week to complete.

This also means that all of us with dates of 8/6 or earlier at MSC for I129F petition might be approved and we are just waiting for the batch processing to be done. I hope we all get our approvals real soon.

If you have a congressional rep assit you by sending an email or letter your application is pulled out and sent to special unit for processing. Whether this is good or bad thing I don't know but i hope that's good news. Second all processing is done in batch processing so for example when we saw last week a bunch of approvals on 10/29 that's because they input and update the computer system all in one shot. Thus when we all check the internet everyday it's pretty much a waste of time because who knows when the batch processing is done. My guess is once every week or once every 2 weeks.

I seem to recall someone with access to the BCIS and their workings saying that congressional help doesnt make a difference. They can find out where the individual case is, but cannot help with the processing.
I am not saying you are wrong, merely that there seems to be conflicting information on this topic.
