Hi! my status never changed, my last update said "On March 21, 2014, we mailed you a notice that we have approved this I130 IMMIGRANT PETITION FOR RELATIVE, FIANCE(E), OR ORPHAN". And NVC received it on March 31rst... No more updates on the USCIS website :no: .

Don't worry, call NVC to know if your case arrived. You'll get a case number around a month after the received date. Good luck! :)

alejandreska thanks a lot for your help they received it on april 9th :D i never thought that uscis stopped updating best of luck with the rest of your jouney :D

I'm on hold with NVC now. I'll give it 15 mins then try calling back during their off-peak evening shift I think. I didn't realise they work through Easter until just now -_-

Never mind, got through. No record yet, going to try next week. Spoke to Kelly, she was nice :)

ROC from CR-1 visa (Green Card expiration date was Nov 24th 2016)

 

Link to the evidence I submitted. Be sure to send evidence spanning your entire marriage (especially for K-1) or as far back as you can. Just one or two bank statements will not cut it. I primarily focused on the two years of living here since I came in on a CR-1. If you don't have the fundamentals (i.e. joint accounts/policies), you can explain why in the covering letter. E.g. "While we do not have joint utilities, we both contribute to them from our joint bank account".

August 8th 2018: Card in production thanks to the direct involvement of Senator Sherrod Brown's team

August 13th 2018: Card mailed

August 15th 2018: Card in hand with correct date. :joy:

Congratulations! Go on over to the NVC filers thread and read Saylin's guide. The thread itself is long and pretty overwhelming but if you read the guides that are linked in the first post they will answer most of your questions.

You will have to fill in the I 864 stuff for affidavit of support, and the fees will have to be paid from a US bank account, but your husband should be able to do the rest!

I'm sorry I couldn't find "Saylin's Guide"?

Its been a year since submitting I-130 and were still in two different countries :sleepy:
