Hi all! I got approved! Here's my timeline:
Sent application: June 18, 2013
Application received at NSC: June 20, 2013
Biometrics Appointment: August 1st, 2013
Request for Evidence: October 2, 2013
RFE received: October 16, 2013

I'm pretty grateful I receive everything in almost less than 3 months (since they don't officially look at your case until after the Biometrics ). I start college at FIU this January and will be dorming! I'm looking for work now in the meantime while I get my SSN and DL. Thank you all for all of the helpful posts!
