US Immigration from Indonesia

The I485 was file via mail and the first NOA was received in one week later. The receipt number starts with IOE, which means the electronic immigration system and at the very bottom of the form it shows National Benefits Center with an address in Lee's Summit, Missouri. In some digging I have done online it mentioned that when you receive this first NOA, the address at the bottom is your processing center however, there is no processing center in Missouri, so anyone knows how can I determine where is my processing center? Subsequent NOA for the I-765 and I-131 all have receipt numbers with IOE and the Missouri address on the bottom of the page. Thanks

Hi guys.. is there anyone who resides in long island NY ?

Please share your AOS timeline with me. I'm a marriage based July 2021 filer. I have completed my biometric on Aug 3, 2021.

Hello all, I sincerely hope everyone is well and safe.

Just some background on my situation, currently living in Japan with my Fiance, we are both here on working visas. Hers expires in December, where she will go back to Indonesia and be with her family. My contract here is over at the end of March and I plan on being home by mid-April. We got our NOA1 on July 13th and is currently at the California center. I'm trying to be optimistic and hope for a summer wedding with my fiance coming in May or June, but I'm pretty disuaded looking at posts about the length to get NOA2 as well scheduling interviews. She would be interviewing at the Embassy in Jakarta. I know processing times for everything is varying wildly from person to person, so any thoughts on my timeline/situation would be appreciated. Also emailed the Jakarta Embassy with no luck yet so not sure what their situation is looking like with interviews. Thanks

Hey everyone,

I m a EU citizen currently in the US and I just got married to a US citizen. I came in on an ESTA and I will be leaving as planned with my new wife in a few days before my ESTA runs out. We plan to live in Europe for a few years and come live in the States in say 5-10 years. I know that in the long term I ll need a visa to live and work in the US but my doubt exists in the short term:

Can I keep using ESTA when my American wife and I come visit family here in the US occasionally? How will the Customs and Border agents view this? Will I need to apply for a CR1? I ve read it takes forever and I m not currently looking to immigrate at this point in time.

Any help/advice/comments/suggestions would be very appreciated.

PS - For those of you worried about getting married on ESTA, it wasn t a problem at all.

Hi All,

We realized we make a stupid mistake by only sending one passport pictures in our I-130 package. We mailed it today, we tried to cancel the mail but they say it already sent. What should we do???? Please have anyone ever experience something like this before? we just can't afford to get deny/RFE over this silly mistake
