September 2025 - Outland Spousal Sponsorship

[farooqz87]

Woohoo! We finally have the first bit of known AOR update on this thread. Probably also one of the earliest September 2025 application among us all. Congrats!

What time today did you receive it and where? On Sponsor's email or the Principal Applicant's?

11AM - PA's email

I was doing some incognito facebook browsing and understandably more people active there... looks like people have slowly started to receive their AORs.
There is a pattern to it:

Sep 1 - Oct 10 AOR (anon user on facebook)
Sep 2 -
Sep 3 -
Sep 4 - Oct 15 AOR (anon user on facebook)
Sep 5 - Oct 16 AOR (user farooqz87 over here)

Sep 6 - Oct 17 AOR? (me, lol)

However, this is definitely not true in each and every case as each case is unique. There are people still waiting for an AOR. If above pattern is true, then I should receive mine tomorrow. Let's see. Will update accordingly.

Yay! AOR received today at 9:45 AM ET on Sponsor’s email (maybe because I’m the authorized representative). Signature updated.

Had a feeling someone will ask this today. The wait can be so uneasy. Nothing to update though. Still waiting.

Based on some other recent threads, looks like the wait time for AORs is about 5-6 weeks so hopefully something soon…

great hotsalsa
