Hoping it goes quick since the wife is wife is pregnant in US. I've already made a trip down and had no issues crossing over. Thinking about doing it next month again by bus for her next ultrasound appointment.  

 

Has anyones time line line changed recently? Mine says March 13-29

it don't matter if she pregnant or not, that will not make your process go any faster.

I know it won't make it go faster. I was just mentioning that I hope things speed up soon as this is my first child and I'm missing out on certain things.

Just checked mine updated too, so I went to check processing times and now they're at August 2nd, last week it was at July 2nd.

But as I'm sure everyone knows that bounces back and forth, nevertheless nice to see the dates advancing.

When you plug in your case number on the USCIS site, if and when approved, what is the exact message on an I-130 approval that is sent to NVC?
I am seeing many "My Card Has Been Sent To Me" but I think that is for employment visas?

Based on what I saw on the app, and my recollection, "Your case is approved"

Hello,

 

Any approvals for those who filed I-130 in Dec, 2016 (Potomac Processing center)?

 

Thanks

I'm tracking 800 cases through the Case Trackr app. No approvals today.

I downloaded the Case Tracker app by Stephen Aldous. How do I track that many cases? Is there an option for that? I'm tracking my own individual case but how do I track multiple cases i.e. 800 cases?

I track 200 cases at a time. 

 

On the bottom next to the tab that says "My Case" should be the "search" tab. Click on that tab, input a case and then set the search limit amount up to 500. Don't track 500 repeatedly as your IP address will get flagged by USCIS and won't be able to look up cases for a few days. Ask me how I know ?

Thanks! I just looked up 500 cases. None approved from December. But are theses cases from a specific processing center? My case is at the Potomac processing center. So by punching in my case # the tracker would show cases being process at just Potomac?

Case Was Sent To The Department of State

On October 27, 2016, we sent your case, Receipt Number SRCXXXXXXX, to the Department of State for visa processing. Please visit our website for general information on Consular Processing. If you move, go to www.uscis.gov/addresschange to give us your new mailing address.

this is exactly what comes up when you log into USCIS website. If you are referring to the tracker -- it will say "case was sent to Department of State"

 Its center specific --- since your case number starts with the letters of your service center. The tracker just pulls whatever number of cases that you ask for consecutively after your start point (your case).
