i-130 I-130 September 2017 Filers

[inQuisitive1 1]

Hello to everyone. I sent my I-130 packet on 09/27bto Phoenix. Received my email today of acceptance. Being forwarded to NSC. Fingers crossed and praying for everyone going through this long tedious and meticulous process for their loved ones. Although I enjoy going to Jamaica to see my husband every few months, I’m so ready for him to be here in the States with me and my family.

Welcome everyone to the forum. I've been here for a while as my NOA1 date is Feb 8. Just wanted to give you all the heads up on what is going on. My file is currently stuck in Nebraska after almost 8 months of waiting. Currently it's taking 9-10 months at Nebraska and that center has come to a standstill. Me along with many others in Visa Journey are trying to speed up the processing times at NSC. For those who are stuck in Nebraska feel free to check out the Nebraska filers page where there are a number of people to contact to get things moving along.

 

Potomac by all observation is the fastest. Many people are getting approved in 5-6 months along with Vermont. Texas is around the 6 month mark. I would not go by what USCIS processing times go by because they are 2 months behind. Right now it says Texas is behind Nebraska when it is not the case at all. The estimated date in Visa Journey is accurate according to today's data. However, my estimated date went from Sept to Oct and now to Nov as Nebraska has gotten worse and worse. If things don't pick up I could be looking at Dec (10 months).

 

If any files start to get transferred from Nebraska this will start to effect the other 3 processing centers greatly.

The only silver lining i guess to this taking longer is that you may end up getting a IRI visa which is permanent instead of the CRI which is conditional.  For example if it took so long that your 2nd anniversary has already passed then you at least get to skip an expensive step later on.

I have a question about ajudication.  Does this mean the estimated time on when I will receive the NAO2?  

rocessing Estimates/Stats :

Based on timeline data, your I130 may be adjudicated between April 1, 2018 and April 7, 2018*.  If this date range has passed or your application is past due per USCIS processing times then you should consider calling the USCIS to inquire on your petition. If you have been approved please update your timeline.

Hello everybody, 

 

I sent my package I-130 with I-485 to Chicago October 12 by USPS . It was suppost to get there on Saturday, but until now nothing. When I check the usps tracking says: in transit/delayed.  Since Monday  shows the same thing and  time. It´s already in Illinois, but never got in the immigration. What could had happened? It´s really frustating to go through this, since this journey is already really stressful.

That is correct.

You can always call USPS and ask for additional information. When I've had delayed packages, they were always able to tell me when it should be delivered and why a potential hold up (e.g. bad weather in one of the transit hubs).

Thank you! I will do that.

Yes. Let s hope those dates are correct, or at least off by a month before or just days after.

Wow! Impressive thinking/reasoning. I would have never figured that out. How about 3 years? Naturalization?

I have realized that VJ cannot create an estimated timeline unless you have or will go through consular processing.

My PD is April 10 2017 for I-130 filed concurrently. My case is at NBC. Found out by I/O that AOS is ready to be scheduled for interview yet NBC has not released the case to a field office yet and it's already the 27th, so not sure why they have not released it (I/O says no notices pending and background check was completed in June) which then keeps putting my case behind everyone else that is being scheduled from a field office.

When your I-130  was approved?
