Thank you Dave. I make over 20,000 close to 40,000 range so I am good right?

@Dwheels76 when you submit the I-130 form which is the first initial form what do you send with it? do they ask for original birth cert and marriage certs?

NLR thank you so much

Hello all,

I am tring to understand the steps here. I filed the I-130 fr my husband after the approval process do they send us instructions/directions on what steps to do next?

I am lost as to what all these forms are with exception of the AOS i know what that is.

@dwheels76 why is a RFE not good?

I have a question not related to the AOS. My husband lives in Antigua (12) years but he was born in Guyana would his interview be in Guyana or Antigua which i think they go to Barbadoes?

How long did you process take?

@patrickandjess this sounds just like what i went through today when i spoke to a tier 2 ISO.

Hello everyone,

I spoke to an ISO (immigration Service officer) this morning in reference to my husband's file that i submitted in June 20 2013 and I did not get much satisfaction. I was told this morning that the NBC (national Benefits center) is over loaded with I1-30 so the decision was made to transfer several cases back to the local service centers for processing.

Also the ISO told me this morning that I am still within the processing time frame which is 6-8 month. If you go on the website and take a look at the process times you will see that most if not all 4 or 5 of the service centers have a February 13 2013 processing time. What this means is they are still working on cases sent in during that month and before. Anyone that filed after February is basically still pending.

I do not feel as though this is all true because I have a friend of my husbands that is in the same process and they seem to be getting through with everything VERY quickly. They live in NYC and assigned to the Chicago lockbox and California service center if I am not mistaken. I believe where you live and which service center you are assigned to makes a huge difference. I see it as the USCIS/ NBC is trying to kill time so that they can catch up with the work. So we all have to wait longer.

I have a question in reference to the AOS. My husband and i do not have any children and i have a pretty good job. My quesion is this due to our household total (2) i assume will i have to have $60k in assets?
