Thanks :) Just noticed you got approved too on the same date :) Just to know, did you got to know directly by email/text or it was on USCIS website before/after?

Got the text first, but I was sitting at my computer so I checked my e-mail next and the website last, all in the space of a few minutes.

I'm a dual US/Hungarian citizen (both by birth; Hungarian citizenship verification TBA), and my husband is a dual British/Irish citizen (by treaty) from Northern Ireland. We are atheists.

I just checked USCIS website as a routine, entered my receipt number and OMG cannot believe my eyes; my petition is approved on 6th of Feb. Goose bumps. Thank you Allah, so happy I am. :) The written decision will be emailed/snail mailed to my husband.

Congratulations ESS! Do you know if you were transferred from NBC to a local field office? Which USCIS field office has jurisdiction over your husband's address?

15AUG2012 I-130 packet delivered to mailroom, per FedEx.com

21AUG2012 the date on next I-797C received only by snail mail, says petition transferred to Lee's Summit,MO

I am not confirm about that; all I know that my case was at Vermont Service Center :) but I guess it must be Queens, NY!

Hi guys I received a letter as a confirmation for my service request it says : your case is actively being processed in front of an adjudicator. However the adjudicator requires additional time to review all relevant information. Once a decision is made you will be notified in writing.

Does anyone receive something like this please let me know what this means; how much longer I have to wait for a decision. The letter came from New York office does this means my case was already transferred from NBC to New York without even notifying me, or this is how they process confirmation letter for service request. please reply if anyone knows about this. thank u.

I wouldn't panic. The people whose files were transferred for workload reasons typically weren't notified. At least you know your file is being looked at. Your name and home country might be the same as someone on the FBI list, in which case they need to take a closer look to make sure you are not them, or something you submitted is being cross-checked against other records, even records in Tunisia, which may take some time to get. Don't worry until you know there is actually something to worry about. Delay is not the same as denial.

We are late august filers who got 3 out of 4 petitions approved on Feb 6. A rfe was sent for my daughter's case (my husband's stepdaughter). We are optimistic that it is something we can address. Now we are just waiting for the actual rfe letter to respond and have her case catch up to the other three. Overall we are grateful.

Never have a name check list problem the proof i had my citizenship in 4 months. not really worried just want to know how much longer once u receive something like this and if my case was really transferred to NY because was initially send to Vermont then transferred to NBC.

Well, look on the bright side. The letter I got said my file was being held for additional processing and I should wait 6 MONTHS. Two weeks later I was approved. The lesson I learned was that they don't even know what they're doing, so what can we expect to know?

our case got transferred to NBC MO at Lee's Summit. We originally sent it to Vermont. Any idea what's a 'normal' processing time would be for us? We sent it in mid August. I'm about ready to curl up and cry :(
