Question

[Billandraffy 2]

Hi folks. Quick history - Back on September 30th I received an email from USCIS stating our I-129F had been approved and an I-797 has been sent to me in the mail.

It finally arrived today. They sent it to the wrong address, an in state immigration lawyer. They were kind enough to forward it to me.

It's not clear to me what my next step is. The approval is good until the 29th of January 2014. At the bottom of the form the Texas Service Center is listed with a customer service phone number.

Do I continue t track my case online like I have been? Will they notify me or my partner? Or do I need to call customer service?

Anyone in the know I would love to hear from.

Thanks much

Hello and congrats on your approval--at this point your petition will be forwarded to the NVC for processing and then will be forwarded to the designated Embassy where your partner is.

I would contact the NVC at this point to see if you have a case number--the USCIS site will no longer provide updates

Once the NVC provides you with a case number you will track the case on the below site

https://ceac.state.gov/CEACStatTracker/Status.aspx?eQs=o/iS8zDpeAKjMWCuebHqOw==

i have also provided the link for nvc contact info

hope this helps and good luck on the rest of your journey!

What does your 797 say?

Does it say to contact the consulate to set up and interview. Since you are approved (I assume that USCIS has approved your petition) you will not be able to track your case with USCIS.

Maybe a few details may help

Ashley903, thanks much for the input. I will call the Texas Sevice Center on Monday. Oh Happy Day!!!!
