Hi. You can only send the i-130 either in Phoenix or Chicago Lockbox (depends which State the petitioner lives at). Once sent to the correct Lockbox they are the one who will send your I-130 to either California or Vermont Service Center for review. You CANNOT send it directly to any of those Service Center.

I have same question as some have written-- got your NOA1 on 8/12 and seventeen days later got your NOA2?

That certainly would be AMAZING and would make many many many readers HOPEFUL for something faster than the normal 3 to 4 month wait-

is that the facts? if so could anyone venture to guess WHY such a large disparity in time lines--

If this is correct I congratulate you on your lightning fast approval and would like to know for future references what you included in your package for it to fly through.

In my opinion, USCIS is approving I-130 applications so fast for month of August is because they need to meet their quotas before it will retrogress.

"Have faith in God, Jesus answered. I'll tell you the truth. if anyone says to this mountain, Go, throw yourself to the sea, and that does not doubt in his heart but believes that what he says will happen. it will be done for him. Therefore I'll tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours" (MARK 11:22-24)

Your profile says, CR-1, are you a US citizen? If it's the case, you don't have to wait for visa to become available or no need to worry about retrogression as the visa is available to the immediate relative of the US citizen.

"Have faith in God, Jesus answered. I'll tell you the truth. if anyone says to this mountain, Go, throw yourself to the sea, and that does not doubt in his heart but believes that what he says will happen. it will be done for him.

it is not possible that you can get approve in just 19 days. I think you are just lying and playing other peoples emotions. here people are waiting for 8 plus months and they count everyday.

Thanks
