Hi @Jeevan
Thanks for clarifying. USCIS charged me the $$$ fees (it shows on my bank statement). It’s been 6 months since they charged the fee. However, they have not provided any update or have not acknowledged that they even received the form. I tried emailing and calling them to get an update but no news. 
What was your experience like with I-824? 

 

No update yet .. it’s been 7 months since I filed I-814

Hi All,

After I-130 for my parents was approved, I had to send in form I-824 [filed and mailed in mid-April’23]. My issue is that there is no confirmation of receipt of forms. I dont know whether NVC received my forms or is even processing them? I did not get any notification and the online account case status has not updated. 
I’m reading other peoples’ experiences and realize that we need to be patient as this might take time. I just don’t like being in this uncertain state where there is no proof of receipt or status update. 

 

Can other people share if they got notifications when their forms reached the center? Is there a way we can find out whether the forms were received by NVC?

 

Thanks so much! 

NVC doesn’t get from I-824 . It goes to uscis . Once uscis reviews it , they will send approved petition to NVC 

I still haven’t received the notice in person . It was just approved yesterday.I’m gonna try calling uscis and see if something can be done. 
I think I’m gonna go ahead and start my moms process for NVC . At least she can be here with me . 

I didn’t know where to post the question . I wanna know how to fix this error sooner . I want both my parents to come at the same time and sooner . I m having my baby this November and I was hoping they will be with me next year by March or April 

Recently I-130 was approved for my father but I missed to fill out embassy information. This is the notice I got . The processing time for I-824 is up to 12 months . My mothers I 130 was approved without any issue and sent to NVC . 

My husbands parents got their I-130 approved today . Priority date is September 7.

I filled out both applications same way . My mother in laws i130 was approved and sent to NVC but they retained my father in law application cuz I didn’t mention where he intends to apply for immigrant visa . Now gotta file I-824 and the fee is $465 . It really sucks

Since it was submitted online, the bottom just says "National Benefits Center"

Service center is not mentioned.

I just submitted I-130 for my parents online  and service center is mentioned on the bottom

1.Service center is written on the bottom of the receipt notice . 

2. u can call uscis if it’s outside of processing time

i think for same day interview , they just do it automatically for parents or we can call and  request at the NVC stage once all the paperwork is done for both parents .

Hello, my husband just filed I-130 for both his parents on September 6,2022.they are in India right now . 
we filed online and both cases were sent to Texas service center . Let’s see how long the wait is .

priority date :September 6,2022.

My husband is preparing to file for his mom and dad. They live in Punjab , India . There is one section in I-130 about providing name and address native language . Do we type it in Punjabi and then upload it or leave it blank??

Does it allow you to upload pictures like that?? Sounds like most people used a computer. 

I was doing it on the computer first and I did scan all the documents to upload it online . But when I tried to upload it , it says the file is too large (pdf). I was thinking it might be easier to just click it on the phone and then submit it

Hi, did anyone file online using their phone . Like clicked pictures of documents on the phone itself and then submit them .I’m stuck on submitting the documents part .

Please I have a question.. Is scan date the day NVC receive the AOS and IV package?

Scan date is when they put it in their system .. for example .. they received our documents on March 5 ,2018 and my scan date was March 7,2018 .

We got interview date in the beginning of may ( Mumbai embassy) .. so they have started scheduling for may already ... 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

Good question, my case went from NWD to BMB after I had sumbitted my forms. 

 

If you haven't yet submitted your NVC forms, you will be able to print out a new Cover Sheet from NVC's online portal:

https://ceac.state.gov/IV/Login.aspx

 

I just confirmed that my Cover Sheet has been updated to reflect the new BMB Case ID.

 

Another note - internally to the NVC, both case IDs are valid. I found out when I was talking to an NVC agent over the phone and gave her my NWD case ID instead of BMB. 

I did try that already but I didn’t find the cover sheet that’s required 

Did u guys get a new cover sheet with new case number to send the documents to NVC or we can use the old one with the old case number on it ?

Thanks Nelma..Yes this is what I read about K1 visa but ours is CR1 so we are confused as is it a normal for them to transfer or it's just with us. I'll try to call embassy as you guided and also will email ultradocs as we have no clue why they changed from New Delhi to Mumbai. I was wondering if someone has been in similiar situation as us. Thanks and good luck to you ! 

I’m in the same boat .. our case was changed from Delhi to Mumbai counslate on Friday as well .. I have emailed NVC about it .. let’s see what they say

Thats is what I read somewhere as well. K visa’s are done only in Mumbai. Delhi stopped doing that.

Hmm... that’s strange .. I don’t know why they changed ours to Mumbai then .. case number was changed as well 

6 minutes ago, KLOVEM said:

That is weird. I am so sorry to hear that. Mumbai is way to far for Delhi people. Did it happen because beneficiary's  address falls under US embassy Mumbai? 

 

 

 

No... they said it’s gonna be under one counslate now

This means the interview dates will take longer than ever now, as the cases are now all going to go to Mumbai?

I’m afraid that’s gonna happen
