IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsApril 2014 I-130 Filers

I recieved and email today, which is great news, we have been transferred to the California Service Center, which I believe is processing quite quickly atm for F2A applications! I checked on the case tracker and it says:

 

On April 15, 2014, we received this I130 IMMIGRANT PETITION FOR RELATIVE, FIANCE(E), OR ORPHAN, and mailed you a notice describing how we will process your case.

 

Does this mean April 15 is our NOA1? and our priority date?

Yup.. It is our pD date.

Deep,

 

What happened to your case man? Did you find out more, it was really horrible to see that they screwed up so bad. Any words? Are you in contact with your senator's office to help. If you find the right liason they can help. Keep after them...

 

Man I really hope this get straightened out really soon. Really sucks dude crying.gif

 

 

I called congressman. He emailed to UScIs and NvC both.

He told me to wait 7 to 10 days for answer.

 

I did not have any other information. I wish everything goes to my side.

 

How about you ?

I saw that you finished your case with everything.

So Are you planning to go India to get your wife here or Is she coming alone herself ?

Hey every one. .haven't been here in forever! But Deep...today I got the email go ahead to pay the IV fee. Everything has been a week or less. I dont know what columns you have on the sheet but it was
Received: 3/4
Email to pay AOS etc: 3/7 (found the email and paid aos fee on 3/14)
Now today 3/21 permission to pay IV fee.
not that we have the money yet...but its available to pay. So...soon I will send my aos packet when I get all the joint sponsors info. And then we shall see about the IV fee and next packet. Ufff...what a disaster. Im appreciative that it was quick..but I wish I didnt have all that time off from work and had the money.




I am happy for you Lisa..

ehh.. i dont want you to stress out about my sheet entry.. not right now at least.

 

 

there are two august entries who have been granted their case numbers within ~ 10 days of their case being received at the NVC correct ? 

 

i am guessing that they were both expedites and/or dcf filings. 

 

Is their any secret story about why you not in the sheet.? lol

I would you like to add you if you do not mind.


My case was finally received at NVC on the 19th. Can you please update spreadsheet. Now just time to patiently waiting for case number rolleyes.gif

I have updated the sheet.

Good luck.

Anybody else think its weird that they're actually giving case numbers to DCF and to expedites (those who had filed both petitions And/OR those who were granted an expedite )  earlier than the rest of us. 

 

 

I see that as a pattern on this august sheet

 

 

Hi friend..

 

I am a bit confused.

Which people go their case numbers in our sheet?

Coz i did not get case number yet i was expedite at uScis stage.

Also, my congressman email NvC last week but did not get any respond yet.

 

And by the way why you are not in the list ?

Do they send emails to filers when they assign a case number? Thanks!

  

ha I just called NVC and was told that it takes 8 weeks for them get the case in their system:ranting::ranting:


1) called NVC and find out instead of waiting for email.

2) 8 weeks is their normal answer.. NVC will have your case withing 2 weeks after Noa2.
So keep calling them.

Deep, I spoke with tier 2 and they're basically just telling me to keep waiting. What would I put as reason for infopass? Too long of processing time or what? Did you do infopass appointment, was it helpful at all?

Reason for info pass would be about your 129f..

processing time for 129f is 5 months.

 

I did not get transferred with other August fillers. and I also filed 129f on Nov..

So I made a infopass and next day I got Approval for I-130.

They closed my 129f at uscis.

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsAug 2013 I-130 filers

Hey guys, our noa-1 was August 6, transferred February 6th to CSC. We also filed a 129F in January which was transferred on Feb. 12th to CSC. We then changed our address on both applications. It seems like we have been put in the "forgotten" pile and are going to have to wait a while for approval. IF they're processing from June now ("forgotten" piles like ours) then we're looking at another 2 months worst case scenario right? Is it worth submitting expedite request? Pulling I129F? I've called USCIS tier 2 twice and they just keep saying we're within normal processing time but that our I129F could actually get adjucated before our I130 and that I130 is taking 13 months from NOA1. I know they just say very general, vague stuff but do you guys think there's anything else we can do? What is "normal processing time"? For CSC they're showing 7.1 months on USCIS website but it's now longer than that for us. I guess averaging out all the other lucky August applicants who got approved sad.png

42 days at CSC that's something unusual.

Did you call Uscis and talk with tier 2 ?

Might be you got RFE and they sent to old address.

 

don't withdraw your 129f but you can call expedite your 129f..

don't ask question to tier 2 but instead of asking question tell them that you want to create service request.

Make info pass appointment also..

I was transferred on Jan 22 to CSC and finally we spoke with Tier 2 on Friday March 14 for an update. He was very rude and mentioned current processing time is ONE YEAR? we further insisted for the cause of delay and he mentioned that its because of security background checks. 

 

Does anyone know how long does background check takes? Its almost 2 months and reading stories of other people really scares me as some have waited for 15 - 19 months too. sad.png

 

How many VJ friends are on the same boat? 

They took 2 and half months check my back ground.

But my case was expedited and I did not get transferred.

you should try infopass appointment.

My wife will be interviewing in Bombay. We still have some time to go, still haven't gotten the IV fee yet and after that all of the documents will need review (30 business days). Interview date after that, not sure what the gap between case complete and interview date at BMB is currently... 

 

Hope you get your case# soon, good luck!!

When you get your interview date than we will know Mumbai gap..

The guy that files my taxes told me to file single because my husband is not in the U.S. so I did and now I feel like I am stuck because our case is with the Nvc and if I try to amend the tax return , it will take a while for them to respond with the amendment and all that so I don't know what to do ...do I call the Nvc and explain and maybe see what they say or do I just wait it out and hope they don't make it a big deal ? I didn't find out about the whole amendment thing until I saw a post about it

In my opinion you can call nvc or

only called if you get NvC ask something.. otherwise you will be fine with single status..

And do amend tax return after your love come here.


It's center based. I think Texas and Nebraska send a separate notice of sending to NVC. California doesn't do that..

I am waiting for a number, I don't know if I got there yet.  The approval notice says to wait 30 days before contacting them.  We have a lawyer and he said to wait until we get notification what to do next.  In the meantime I am preparing everything.  How are you doing? do you find helpful the NVC thread? I find is not as friendly as August thread.  Almost scared to ask questions, they slap you on the hand.....lol

 

You r right..

Hi Deep, I was looking at the transfer sheet and I noticed that you have the same person in 2 different lines.  (Line 68 and 61)probably a mistake.  

 

I saw that but I think it's two different people..

mezou2008 ..2/10/14..// Pd-8/16

mezou0028..2/18/2014 // Pd-8/20..

 

Again. I am not sure, you are right n  it's mistake. It's been long time, I did not talk with them.

I guess, we just have to wait for their update.

 

So what else in life?

Are you ready for NVC stage ?

I like August forum.. I still believe we should have the tracking sheet for NVC dates and to keep the participation. My I-130 was approved on 2/20 (Texas), on 3/5 I received shipment notice.. but till now NVC didn't receive my case. calling twice a day.. When you call 603-334-0700 sometimes the line beeps as if the phone number doesn't work). But keep calling.. you may be connected (after hearing music for 20 min).

I wish I can do that my friend..

But Admin don't allow us..

but we have created  Facebook page for more info if you would like to see.

My RFE was they wanted another copy of my marriage license that showed the town/parish we were married in (my copy either got cut off or lost am sure) I sent it last week and they received it in one day now I'm still waiting.. Says somethin like "response review"... I took a break from the forum after my RFE bc it was so depressing watching every1 else get approved BUT our time will soon come.

And now back to what I have done for almost 7 months... waiting!


Did you get any email from uscis about your case shipment?
How about your case status for I-130 as of right now? What does it says?

Hi Deep,

Does our service center inform us if they shipped or not our approved files to NVC. I am approved on March 06 and know that it might take two to three weeks to reach NVC but is there anyway to know that? Thanks for your help!

 

Yes,,

two ways to know about that..

1) when you get hardcopy, it says on it that your case have been shipped to NVC from USCIS office..

 2) you can call USCIS and talk with tier 2.. they can tell you also..

Thanks for your opinion, appreciate it. Makes sense to just let lawyer do it but he is usually busy and I don;t believe he will be as proactive. My question is if I want to do NVC process myself, I will have that option rt?

Btw, are you using lawyer?

of course, you have that options..

you can contact with them by email too..

when u get nvc case number than ask customer service Rep.

They will assist you with everything.. Step by step.

Hi B&G,

 

Do you know if lawyer has to submit all the paper work at NVC stage, such as AOS packages and IV packages, or we do it ourselves? I am using lawyer and now that I think about it, it would be too much hassle to send him docs and wait for him to submit it to NVC. I would just rather do it myself.

 

You asked to B & G..

But I just have my opinion..

 

you will save lots of time if you do by lawyer. ( my friend told me and I think it's true)

I asked same question to him.

lawyer can send both packages together and pay fees together..

do not do it yourself..

if you have lawyer when u submitted I-130 than get help from him..

it's not hassle but it's about saving 2 to 3 weeks.

This is what I know..

You can ask some others too.

Good luck.
