Feeling so anxious at this point kasi Sep 11 na-lodge yung sakin at lagpas na sa processing timeline nila. Have no idea what’s causing the delay kasi wala namang hinihinging additional docs; actually Received pa din status till now, 45 days na. (Pero still hopeful na darating soonest.)
Anyone here whose application was lodged around the same time as mine?

Wala namang hiningi na add'l docs. And accdg to the immi agent na nakausap ko sa hotline nila, you're good as long as wala silang hinihingi. Madami lang daw talagang applicants ng SV lately.
