Does anyone know how long the CA service center takes to move an I-130 to NVC? Does anyone know what it means when I get an approval in the mail but the USCIS website is not updated with this information? I am concerned as the USCIS website previously reflected the current status. We have had a lot of these because our I-130(s) have been in process for over 3 years. This because the Manila Consular officer returned the I-130(s) to the USCIS for further review. We finally got a notice from USCIS of intent to revoke, we responded to this and the USCIS re-approved the children's petitions. Now the I-103(s) don't seem to be at the USCIS and not at the NVC and the website doesn't reflect the current I-797C Notice of Action I received. Any thoughts.... Thanks, Bob
In my experience (3 different petitions) - the website frequently is not accurate and doesn't update.
The last touch on my N400, was last touched 6/1/2006 and has the following message:
The status for this Receipt Number cannot be found at this time in this automated system. Please check your case receipt number to see if it is correct. If you have questions or concerns about your case status, please contact the National Customer Service Center.
Since 6/1 I've had my interview, and RFE, and my oath ceremony. No touches at all, and no available status. So as long as you have the paper, I would not worry.
From what I've heard people say, I think it can take anywhere from a few days to a few weeks for the approved I130 to reach the NVC. But I believe the notice says it can take up to 90 days.
Anyway, congrats on the approval & I hope everything goes smoothly for you!
