What next after form I-130 is approved by uscis

[Eberechi 3]

What is to be done next if uscis approve form I-130? Is my husband going to send them his current account balance while doing the affidavit of support? Or is he only going to send them his annual salary 🤔

Current income is king for the affidavit of support. Unless he is self-employed, current income is demonstrated by providing recent paystubs and/or a letter from his employer (on letterhead) stating his salary.

You’ve posted this in the DCF forum but I don’t think that’s relevant to you? So assuming you’re applying via the ‘normal’ route then you’ve got a long time before the I-130 is approved. 
 

But in the meantime, read up on the process so you can understand all the steps and what will be required - https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/immigrate/the-immigrant-visa-process/step-1-submit-a-petition.html

 

Good luck.

USCIS forwards it to the NVC for additional processing by the consulate.  When was the I-130 filed?

Our I-130 online form now says that it's being reviewed by USCIS, but that nothing is outstanding for now 😒. Is it a normal thing for them to say that they are currently reviewing my case but that nothing is outstanding for now?

Yes. It will say that for the next 12-14 months.

You just wait.  You will get another Notice of Action before it is sent to the NVC.   

You should study the guide here and the forums to learn about what comes next.

It takes up to a year before USCIS approves it and send it to the NVC??

“Up to” means 12 or less. It’s a year or more (12 months and up.)

for context:  Aug 31 2021 filler, it was just under a year Aug 16, 2022 the i-130 was approved. I totally believe they are getting slower not faster.

Please we used the wrong address while filing for my I-130 cr1 online form, is it going to be a problem on my case?
