Any non-UK residents here who filed with USCIS London?

Hi. I just checked the USCIS London website and according to the processing time, "as of June 1, 2007, we are processing petitions filed on March 21, 2007."

My husband and I live in Ireland and planned to do DCF in Dublin. Due to the Adam Walsh Law, we filed directly with USCIS London as soon as the news came that this option was available. We got an e-mail from them that they received our I-130 on March 14, 2007.

About a week after I filed with USCIS London directly, the US Embassy in Dublin opened up DCF once again. I'm assuming that the Dublin embassy now files petitions with London on the applicant's behalf.

I haven't heard from USCIS London nor from the US Embassy in Dublin. Should I be worried?

I'm not sure whether I will hear from London or whether London will send my approved I-130 to the embassy in Dublin and Dublin will then contact me.

Please advise if anybody else is in my situation. Thanks.

Hi, I filed with the london office and i think if they are processing your application you should receive an email. Also, check your bank account to see if they have taken your $190 (if they have i'm pretty certain it's being done in london). Then..you will have to wait another 3 months for a reply....once you get your pack it should be smooth sailing from there.

Good luck

Andy

We filed in London and our processing date was 15th March. I am a UK resident so I don't know the specific answer, but I can tell you that we received our NOA2 today so if the approval's coming from London then you should receive it anytime now. If you don't receive it in the next couple of days then maybe it's coming from Dublin. Fingers crossed it will come soon.
