Vermont Service Center(VSC) has too much work load especially for F2a category. As the PD are current for 2 months and visas are available, they need to increase demand and need to approve more cases specially for the beneficiary of adjustment of status (just a guess) so the remaining visas don't get waste. So there is workload transfer to Nebraska Service Center (NSC).

(My case also got transferred in Mid aug. My PD is 6th Jan, 2013)

Thank you for the link, it makes sense now.

USCIS doesn't do a good job of keeping their site update. The data is always 2 months old. As far as Nebraska not doing i-130's, I think they did sometime in the past so it should be ok

Thank you for the input....I'll wait until the end of this month and see what happens.

Irah,

you do not have to worried about retrogression anymore, once your case is forwarded to the NVC is will take up to 6 months to receive and interview date depending on how fast or what documents the NVC will like for you to provide. Retrogression only affects for folks whose case are still in the Service Centers. Good luck.

Hello VJourneys,

I am concern about the Vermont Service Center sending my case to the Nebraska Service Center on August 6, 2013, my PD is 11 JUN 2012 and in the NOA I received yesterday it stated for speedy processing but, when I looked what was the processing time for the NBC there was not an I-130 listed for the Center. Is this a goof by the VSC sending my case to Service Center that does not handles I-130s. Welcome any comments or inputs you guys may have.

Thanks.

June 11 2012 still waiting on NOA2....hopefully next month in August will get things moving.

My prediction is current because they will try to use all the visas remainding for this Fiscal Year FY, now October will be a different story and it will depend on the Immigration Reform being vetted thru Congress...If approved expect some delays due to the influx of petitions that they will have to work due to the illegal folks. I hope they will retrogress to what they left back in July Oct 2011 or Mar 2012. Good Luck people

My PD is 12 JUN 2012 and only have received NOA1 no NOA2 yet, somebody posted in January it will be 5 weeks to get things moving and is end of May and still nothing. Good Luck, everybody hopefully when the House passes the Immigration Reform things will move quicker.

If you have any concerns about the filed petitions just call the USCIS here is the number 1-800-375-5283...

Thanks pinay28, I will have her call the center

Has the checks been cashed? Did the mail actually received? Is your MIL's address correct on the I-130?

If the checks have been cashed, then USCIS must have received the petitions/

If the checks have not been cashed, then the mail may have been lost.

Double check the address on the I-130s. Was mail sent to the wrong place?

Thanks Diamond, I will have to call them but, I am not sure which processing center has the petitions, I read that once the Chicago Lockbox receives the petitions they forward to one of the Service Centers.

I have verified the address and is correct, they were postal money orders and will have to see if they have been cashed thanks for the information aaron.

Hello everyone, my mother-in-law is a Permanent Resident and have filed for her sons and daughters. Her first I-130 petition was filed in June 2012 and within two weeks she had a priority date of 12 June 2012. Since then she has filed for her son and daughter since July 2012 and we have not received any notices from USCIS......is it normal to be this long without any respond?? all I-130 petitions went to the Chicago Lockbox and we live in Virginia. Thank you in advance on any info provided.
