So what now?

[hero-song 0]

Hello all,

Sorry in advance, as this is probably a question that gets asked a hundred times a month here, but I'm just really nervous. I just sent my petition for my fiancée's visa and according to the USPS tracking on the website, it's been delivered.

What do I have to do now? I filled out all the forms as best I could following all the guidelines on this site, I included everything I needed and more, signed everything I had to and got signatures from my fiancée. Everything should be in order (I hope). So what now? Can I contact the immigration office to check on our status and ask if they need anything else? Do I gather more evidence to present? Heck, if needed, I'll drive to the office tomorrow and talk with them if they ask me to! I just need to know, what's next?

Thanks for reading and responding

Nothing you can do now but wait. If you included the form G-1145, you will get a notification when your I-129 has been entered into their system, then you will get the hard copy of the same notification in the mail. Same process once your petition has been processed to the point of approval or RFE. Not much you can do but wait patiently.

Just wait. That's all you can do. If you signed up for the electronic delivery, they will text and/or email you. You will get a number that you can check your status here: https://egov.uscis.gov/casestatus/landing.do

Just a note: you sent your petition to the Dallas Lockbox. The Lockbox is what will assign your service center. It will probably be the California Service Center, as that is the only one taking new applications since April (and maybe forever). You'll know because once you get the number if it begins with the letters WAC you're at California, SRC is Texas. Either way, you're looking at only 2 or 3 months before USCIS is finished with you. The days of the 8 month waits at Texas appear to be over for now. Breathe. You're fine. You're in a very good spot.

Get the USCIS Case Tracker app for your phone. Takes 2 seconds to check the status of your case. Unfortunately, you will find yourself checking every 5-15 minutes. I know I did. The day my case was approved, I checked the app at 8pm and no change. I checked again at 10:15pm, there it was "Case was Approved" Good Luck, relax, and be patient.
