Filed in January (NOA1 in march 7) for my 4 stepchildren at VSC and the date they are working on hasnt changed in all that time? Has anyone on here seen anyone processed & approved for anything closer to 2008?


I-130 Petition for Alien Relative U.S. citizen filing for a spouse, parent, or child
under 21 July 30, 2007

I thought all these $charge$ increases were to speed things up...

PS... my wife, Lucita and I are very happily married still after all this time...sorry to hear about those who are not on the forums.

Any info would be appreciated...but from my recollection of the USCIS they have gone on extended vacation or something

That is an indication of processing times for CR-1/IR-1 visas. Jan & Feb NOA-1's are only starting to get a look in. Hope that helps

So should I be looking at the CR-1/IR-1 visa approval dates and not the I130? I am confused I thought i filed a I130 for my stepchildren?

Yes because the children will be processed in this manner as CR2/IR2. Once approved by USCIS then it is on to the NVC.

Good Luck
