Sounds like the petition has been approved! The NVC wouldn't have your case yet and be asking for fees yet if it weren't. I would want to make sure that your address on file with the NVC is correct, or use a different one if mail delivery in your area is unreliable. This was the case for me, my mail carriers where I lived in the US really couldn't handle even simple addresses like mine and frequently lost stuff so I used a family members' to ensure that I got all notices and correspondence during the immigration process. You don't absolutely need the NOA2, your case will progress whether you've received it or not. But I definitely wanted my copy for my records and actually needed it again recently (but our case is crazy, this wouldn't happen to you). Hopefully the paper notice arrives in the mail soon!

P.S. This is in the K1 Fiance section but I think you're talking about a CR1/IR1 visa, right?

Wow, thanks for the info, and yes my case is a CRI1/IR1 visa. I just hope everything works out fine. And good luck with your case.

Hi,

I filed I-130 for my husband and haven't receive the 2 NOA yet from USCIS. However I received an email from NVC yesterday stating the fees I need to pay for AOS and IV. Does this mean my petition was approved or do I still need to wait for the 2 NOA? Thanks

Oh, thanks for replying.

I received 1 NOA , it says my priority date is February 9, 2012. What does the priority date mean?

Good luck!

Hello every one,

I'm new to VJ, and hope that I can find good advice. Im a US citizen and submitted I 130 for my husband, after he was deported four months ago, and I'm very nervous about it, even though I think every thing was correct on the petition . Don't know if this is going to be a smooth transaction for me and my family, I know I have to be positive but its very difficult when the laws are not very flexible. As for now I just have to wait until my petition is approved..
