Its been 1 month , we recieved that

On September 6, 2011, we received this I130 IMMIGRANT PETITION FOR RELATIVE, FIANCE(E), OR ORPHAN, and mailed you a notice describing how we will process your case. Please follow any instructions on this notice. You will be notified by mail when a decision is made, or if the office needs something from you. If you move while this case is pending, please use our Change of Address online tool to update your case with your new address or contact our customer service center at 1-800-375-5283.

During this step, USCIS initiates the background checks of the applicant/petitioner and identifies issues that may need to be addressed either during an interview or by asking the applicant/petitioner to submit additional information or documentation. USCIS reviews the applicant's/petitioner's criminal history, determines if there are national security concerns that need to be addressed, and reviews the application/petition for fraud indicators.

If you have filed an I-485, I-589, I-751, N-400, I-90, I-821, I-131 or I-765, you can expect to receive an appointment notice to appear at an Application Support Center to have your fingerprints and/or photographs taken. The timing of your appointment is determined by the number of applicants ahead of you that also need a biometric appointment. We try to schedule biometric appointments as quickly as possible and in most cases you will receive your appointment notice within 30 days of submitting your application. We will send your appointment notice approximately 14 days ahead of your scheduled appointment. It is important that you keep this appointment. If absolutely necessary, you can request that your appointment be rescheduled however, please be aware that rescheduling may delay the processing of your application. Please follow the instructions on your appointment notice if you need to reschedule. Occasionally, you may receive an appointment notice to appear at an Application Support Center to have your fingerprints taken when you have filed a form other than those listed above. In these situations, you may receive your appointment notice more than 30 days after submitting your application or petition.

I believe that was your NOA1. You are in que to get your case looked at and checks done. This takes about 5-6 months then you'll hopefully get a NOA2 and proceed to NVC stage. This link Loto's "how to bring your spouse to the US" is a great resource. Welcome to the VJ club and please fill out your timeline so we can help you!!

Yes, I agreed. That's your NOA1. Just wondering why it takes 1 month. But that's a good thing. You will now wait for your Notice of Action II (NOA2). God bless in your visa journey. good.gif

I think the OP was worried something was wrong with the process and it's been 1 month since last contact with USCIS. Just a normal situation and I'd recommend reading up on the NVC stage and getting all your paperwork done as much as you can so you can have a smooth NVC. Best of luck!!

Sorry I misunderstood it.

Next Step is wait for the USCIS approval (NOA2) it takes 3 - 5 months. In our case, it was 90 Days ( California Service Center).

And If the petition is approve they will send you a Notice of Action II ( NOA2) , and your documents will be forwarded to NVC.

Yes, that's right. Please read the link that "Calibob" had posted. It is a very clear guide on what to do next. God bless.
