It has been 9 days since my application was approved according to the USCIS website. No email, and no hard copy yet... anyone know how long it is supposed to take?

I did however receive my Birth certificate back in the mail today from USCIS.

You should Receive a hardcopy within 2 weeks and a case number within 4 weeks.

Hi Guys,

Sorry if this has been asked before. I've searched the forums and I can't find the answers.

My husband and I live together in Spain. I am an American citizen. He is Spanish. We have gotten our NOA2 and we are going through the NVC process. Since both of us work in Spain, we need to get a Joint Sponsor and my father has agreed to do it.

In Part 3 (Information about the immigrant you are sponsoring), since I am going to have a joint sponsor, do I mark YES or NO? There are no family members coming with us from Spain, so I imagine that I can skip 3a-27. In 28, is the number of immigrants I am sponsoring 1? Or is it 0 because technically my father is going to be sponsoring my husband?

For my mailing address, I have put my parent's address in the U.S. because this is what we used for the I-130 mailing address. However my physical address will be in Spain. Is this ok?

The thing that has me the MOST confused is the country of Domicile. Would I put that it is Spain, in this case? Or would it be the U.S., since I have only been living outside the U.S. since 2013? I already have completed a letter that shows that I have a bank account, mailing address, voter registration card in the U.S., however I'm not sure whether with this I am proving that I have U.S. Domicile or that I am re-establishing it. Hence, I don't know what to put in the form. Can someone help?

I have another question about Sponsor's Household Size (PART 5)

If the number is 28 is 1 (person you are sponsoring in this affadavit), and I enter 1 for myself, that's 2. But then if I enter and "1" for my spouse, that's a total of 3 for #8 (household size). That seems really strange, considering that we are counting my husband twice. Is that the way it is supposed to be? Really, my household size is only 2.

Finally, I read somewhere that since I am only earning income abroad, that I should put in Part 6, question 2, that my annual income is $0. Is that correct? That means that since my husband is working in Spain as well, we can't use any of his income either, so question 15 would also be 0?

Sorry, I know it's a TON of questions. But I would forever grateful if someone could help me out.

Thanks in advance.

I just got my hardcopy NOA2 in the mail. I was wondering, does the NVC information packet get sent to the US address, or the abroad address? because my husband has recently moved and we don't want to miss any paperwork.

Congratulations on your approval. Thanks for your post, it makes me want to go check my p.o box more often. I just figured USCIS Status would be updated before receiving the Hardcopy
