Tina, I think Chennai U.S consulate is an exception. They take a validity of 6 months for PCC. But I think rest of the Indian Consulate takes 1 year validity. Loto

got an email today :D

Dear Applicant/Petitioner:

Your USCIS application/petition has been received and routed to the for processing. Within 7-10 days by standard mail you will receive your official Receipt Notice (Form I-797) with your Receipt Number. With the official Receipt Notice (Form I-797) you may visit www.uscis.gov where you can check the status of your application using My Case Status. We suggest you wait until you have received your Form I-797 before checking My Case Status.

Is this my I-130 NOA1??

NO, I don't think so - look for a receipt # that starts with 3 letters - EAC, WAC or the new 'Texas' one.

The NOA-1 is a piece of postal mail, with 'I-797-C' referenced in the letter .

Sometimes my language usage seems confusing - please feel free to 'read it twice', just in case !
Ya know, you can find the answer to your question with the advanced search tool, when using a PC? Ditch the handphone, come back later on a PC, and try again.

-=-=-=-=-=R E A D ! ! !=-=-=-=-=-

Whoa Nelly ! Want NVC Info? see http://www.visajourney.com/wiki/index.php/NVC_Process

Congratulations on your approval ! We All Applaud your accomplishment with Most Wonderful Kissies !

Anyone for China or Canada?

is optional 'NVC ELECTRONIC PROCESSING', for you -later, after USCIS approval -

see http://www.visajourney.com/wiki/index.php/NVC_Electronic_Processing

Going through EP, for Canada, doesn't gain you any speed for interviewing at Montreal, as they have been lagged due to personnel shortages,

but for CHINA - hoo boy ! cuts off 2 to 5 months of silliness, and ACTUALLY NVC sets the appointment, about a week after case-complete at NVC (Instead of GUZ IV setting the appointment, after casefile arrival )

Sent in the I-130 on June 7, received NOA1 June 26 2010. Now I'm kind of unsure of what to do because I was told that the I-129F was unnecessary. Trying to get the I-864 together.

Hey everyone! I'm a June filer too! But am I the only I-130 filer in this topic who's petition is being filed at the Vermont Service Center?
