i-130

[ALEJANDRO37800 1]

Someone knows how long it takes to get accepted in the California office of the I-130, I sent the package on October 16, 2018, I got an answer that the package had arrived on July 20, 2019, they still do not accept me and never huh I went to the USA and I have an American daughter and they still don't accept me. Do you think I receive my green card this year?

 

my case starts with ioe

On what basis did you enter the US? Are you still here?

[geowrian 22,336]

An I-130 for a spouse of an LPR is usually taking around 18-24 months.

But I have never entered the United States and I have my American daughter, does that help me anything? MY CASE SENDS IT IN OCTOBER 2018

Neither of those makes a difference for USCIS. Everybody waits in the same general line for the same form in the same category.

 

That said, I do see some significant improvements in the wait for F2A: https://egov.uscis.gov/processing-times/

It is now showing an inquiry date of Nov. 15, 2018. Your case is before that, so you can choose to submit a Case Inquiry online: https://egov.uscis.gov/e-request/displayONPTForm.do?entryPoint=init&sroPageType=onpt

Dicho esto, veo algunas mejoras significativas en la espera de F2A: https://egov.uscis.gov/processing-times/

Ahora muestra una fecha de consulta del 15 de noviembre de 2018. Su caso es anterior, por lo que puede optar por enviar una Consulta de caso en línea: https://egov.uscis.gov/e-request/displayONPTForm.do?entryPoint = init & sroPageType = onpt

Is it taken into account from the date I sent the papers or the date I received the notification from uscis that they had received my papers?

you know why on the processing dates of the i-130 of california Do you delay or advance the days without any order? In other offices they are already in 2019 and the California office does not pass 2018 For example: today I-130 California date appears: October 5 and yesterday was October 7, 2019

I'm uncertain of the exact date they use, but Priority Date should suffice IMO.

California handles family preference cases - F1, F2A, F2B, F3, and F4. The other service centers handle immediate relative cases (IR/CR cases). Family preference cases usually are not current immediately so they tend to be a lower priority - there's usually no advantage to handling them sooner vs IR cases.

The current situation with F2A being current in the visa bulletin is an outlier, so this is one of those cases were it does matter...although F2A from California is not much slower than Nebraska, which handles the majority of IR cases.

 

The dates will shift fairly often as they process cases. It does not always go forward, although the average does tend to do so.

No estoy seguro de la fecha exacta que usan, pero la fecha de prioridad debería ser suficiente para la OMI.

 

California maneja casos de preferencia familiar: F1, F2A, F2B, F3 y F4. Los otros centros de servicio manejan casos relativos inmediatos (casos de IR / CR). Los casos de preferencia familiar generalmente no son actuales de inmediato, por lo que tienden a ser de menor prioridad; por lo general, no hay ninguna ventaja en manejarlos antes que en los casos de IR.

La situación actual con F2A en el boletín de visas es atípica, por lo que este es uno de esos casos donde importa ... aunque F2A de California no es mucho más lento que Nebraska, que maneja la mayoría de los casos de IR.

 

Las fechas cambiarán con bastante frecuencia a medida que procesen casos. No siempre avanza, aunque el promedio tiende a hacerlo.

Thank you very much, I thank you for 6 months of the last paper sent to me that said that they are processing my case to see if they accept me soon, after they accept you, how long does it take for the interview? Cheers

Once the I-130 is approved, it will be sent to NVC for processing. That process typically takes a couple to few months.

NVC Wiki here: https://www.visajourney.com/wiki/index.php/NVC_Process

 

Once your case is complete at NVC you will be put in line for an interview at the consulate. The timeline for that varies from consulate to consulate.

If your profile is correct, then the interview will be at Ciudad Juarez (CDJ). Unfortunately, the wait there is quite extensive right now - I think like 8-10 months or so? I don't follow specific consulate timelines so I suggest checking the regional forum for updates, but I do know CDJ is severely backlogged right now.
