Hi there. We filed i130 2 weeks ago in London. Credit card payment was taken 2 days after receipt but we have heard nothing yet either by email or post. Does anybody know what / when we should expect to hear next. Thanks in advance for any help offered.

Hi there,

The next thing to expect is your NOA1. You wont' get a: "thank your for sending your I-130" or anything alike if that is what you were expecting. The confirmation that they got it, IS the credit card payment on your bank statement. There is a timeline on the US London embassy website that indicates what dates they are currently working on. If you filed 2 weeks ago you still have a lot of waiting to do. As you will be able to see on my timeline, we filed the 31st January and is still waiting for NOA1. It is like watching paint dry. At least you doing it with all of us and your not alone. :)

Thanks for the reply Keeto.

I was expecting to get a ' we have received your i130' letter or email but guess we will just have to wait now.
