I am a Jan 14, 2013 filer. my case was sent to the National Benefits center with a MSC #. 

 

some time in March I called and was forwarded to a Tier 2 officer who notified me that my file had been transfered back in Feb of 2013 to a my local Tampa Office.

 

I received an NOA2 on June 6, 2013 and i never was able to look up my case status until I called and found out I had been approved.  I went to the site and tried the number and it FINALLY dancin5hr.gif  showed up online. 

 

so I think you might one of the few that never can pull up their case status online until its approved.  hope this helps.

 

You're right, i got the same thing happened.

still waiting for my NOA2...my NOA 1 came 1/23/2013..and also my case isn't showing up online in case status...

 

do not rely on the online tracking system, not a reliable source.

Oh wow B! I'm new and a I-130 January 2013 petitioner.  PHX was my lockbox and my NOA1 was around your timeframe. I haven't heard that we could be called to our local office for an interview. This is good news for you!  Congratulations!  Anything to place you closer to an NOA2

 

Hi C! my husband (petitioner) passed the interview and APPROVED on the spot, NOA2 received from officer right after the interview!

 

it took 97 days from my NOA1 to NOA2. well i think yours should be on the way! good luck!goofy.gif

Just received this response from NVCResearch:
 
Please be advised that the National Visa Center (NVC) contacted U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Service (USCIS) in regards to your approved petition. USCIS has informed us that your petition will be retained at the (SAN ANTONIO FIELD OFFICE - SNA).  Please contact USCIS at 800-375-5283 or visit their web site at www.uscis.gov for additional information.
 
What does that mean???
Why would the local office retain my petition instead of send it to NVC? It's been almost 7 weeks since the approval.





Do an infopass at San Antonio and talk to them.

Can someone just confirm this checklist for me on things I need for the IV packet?
I'm about to go out of town so I need to be prepared.
I've eliminated things that do not pertain to me.
 
1. Barcoded cover sheet
2. Personal cover sheet
3. (2) 2x2 pictures of the beneficary
6. Photocopy of the biographic page of beneficiary's passport
7. Original birth certificate of beneficiary
8. Marriage certificate of beneficiary and petitioner
9. Police clearance of beneficiary
 











You also need copies of numer 7 and 8 on it.

Ok. Did you submit the DS-261? or DS-3032 by email?

DS-3032 by email it took 9 business day for them to answer the email.


rivea1979MaleNicaragua2013-05-02 19:24:00
IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsNVC Filers - May 2013

 

 

Im not sure about the DS260 if thats the case then ill be sending DS230.

 

WOW! I was hoping it would be alot quicker. Im hoping they'll accept my expedite request once NVC receives my case. And what is an info pass? Who did you contact for that?

 

Im pretty sure you have to do the DS-230. I havent seen anything for the DS-260 in the Embassy website.

 

The Infopass is an appointment you make for your local field office. You ban go to the USCIS website and on the top left corner you will see where it say.Infopass appointments.

Quick questions for all those who are submitting DS-260 online! Is one able to submitt supporting documents online or do they have to be mailed? Im still waiting on NVC to receive my case just want to have everything ready!

 

God Bless

 

 

I think that the NIcaragua Embassy does DS-230and not DS_260. Correct me if Im wrong.

Hello all!

 

Ive recieved NOA2 on March 5th and NVC hasnt received anything!! crying.gif

This has been the longest wait ever, USCIS just says to keep waiting, is there anything you guys recommend I ask the USCIS officer to get a clear answer , ive already asked to see when my case was sent out to NVC! Im just lost and dont know what to try anymore, I need my hubby here for the birth of our child!

 

My case was approved on February 15 and didnt got to nvc till April 8. Did your case got processed at a local field office or a service center? Mine was processed at a local office so I got an infopass after a month of wating and talked to them. They help me out by telling me that my case was still there, and that probably was going to be leaving at the beginning of april and it did. So, you might want to schedule an infopass if your case was process at a local field office.

 

I got my IV bill today and pay for. Tomorrow Im sending the packet. SO EXCITED!!!!!

Your case was complete just 1 day after ours.  Call NVC back.  They might have better news.  My first call this morning was bad news.  Second call and we get the best news I have had in years!  I will pray for you both.  Hang in there.  ALOHA KE AKUA
 

I called today around 5pm, should I call again? I'm really hoping for and interview in July.

I am nearly completing packet 3 and will soon be ready to send it back to embassy but I cannot find the correct address to return the packet to! I don't want to risk sending it to the wrong division of the Embassy as that will waste valuable time. Anyone who has recently mailed packet 3 to the U.S. Embassy in Mumbai. could you please let me know the correct address where I should send it.

Thanks so much!
