Received email today with welcome letter and NVC numbers. 

😀congratulations!!!! 

[Kat & Jim 47]

Received email at 3:28 this morning that " We have taken and action on your case and to sign in to your account to view your case status".  So, while holding my breath and half asleep I signed in and it said, 

August 13, 2018:

We approved your case 

Read the notice we mailed you for more information.

Thank God this part is over !    - It is so hard waiting and Visa Journey has been the best help that you can ever ask for. It is strongly recommended for what ever stage you are at to receive answers and also GIVE answers to others that need help. Now on to the next stage that I have been preparing for from the start. Hoping everyone else still waiting gets a speedy approval. I remember someone here on Visa Journey saying, When you least expect it you will receive good news and they were right !

did you call to ask USCIS?

I wish you will have good new as soon as possible!

No need to call as we received an email at 3:28 this morning to sign into your account and when I did it said that we were just approved. 😊 Thank you for your comments and encouragement. Now onto the NVC stage. I think I will be following the NVC Filers for August 2018, possibly September 2018, not sure.

I have an NVC question and I"m not sure if I should post it here or somewhere else.

 

I'm trying to get all the documents in step 4 & 5 and when it asks for photocopies of birth certificates, police records etc. is it for the petitioner as well as the applicant(s)? So I, the petitioner need to photocopy my birth certificate and any other paperwork it asks for along with my spouse?

Just did DS-261 and the option to pay fines is available but it says on paper to wait 3 weeks beofre continuing 🤔 anyone know if you can pay the fines already? Edit: I think AOS can be paid.

Same to you!

 

I got a congressman involved because my case was sent to NBC over 65 days ago.

 

After many inquiries from the case worker, I am not in a department for review to see if my case was sent their in error.  We have a meeting to chat on Friday.  So hoping to hear some information soon.

 

 

Hey lady did u get something positive from your congressman?

Sounds like you will be doing an interview here in the states prior to your I-130 approval.  This sometimes happens.  Any previous interactions with immigration?

I didn’t know that petitioner do interview too. 

No interactions particularly just regular calls for status update. Case have been to the local office since january (220 days). It is so confusing to me

Sometimes they call in the Petitioner to do an interview in the States prior to the I-130 being approved and being sent to NVC. I would call your local office.

There’s no way to contact them via phone but 2 months ago i had an appointment with them and it was useless
