Hey Guys, PD: 02 April 2022. California Service Center - Submitted online (IOE). First Active Review 5 May 2023. We got approved on May 11th 2023. but we saw the approval notice in the documents tab that we have to file I-824 form because of a mistake we have done I. The form. We filled both adjustment of status and consular processing in the i-130. Has anyone done this before and how much longer do we have to wait for the I-824 to be processed and then sent to NVC?

Hey Guys, PD: 02 April 2022. California Service Center - Submitted online (IOE). First Active Review 5 May 2023. Nothing else so far, Hopefully we get an approval soon.

It’s been over 12 months now, This is the only thing we got. No response yet 🥲

We filed online the I130 on April 2nd of 2022 , still no update nothing..

Husband US Citizen (USC) living in USA Filling I-130 for Foreign Wife living Abroad Husband (USC) is an active military that was stationed in Bahrain from 2018 to March 2021. April 2019 - My husband and I first started chatting online somewhere around April 2019 and we kept talking to each other until we were both comfortable to hang out so he asked me out on a date to meet in person. June 13th 2019 - it was a Thursday Night, I still remember our FIRST DATE as if it was yesterday. So from then on we were inseparable. February 14th 2020 - he proposed to me. May 2020 - And we applied for the fiancé visa in that same year. May 13th 2020 – Receipt Date Notice of Action 1 February 1st 2021 – Request for Evidence (RFE) for i-129F and we sent it. March 20th 2021 - My "Fiancé" back then had to leave Bahrain and move back to the US as he is an active military member and his stay in Bahrain was over. April 1st of 2021 – i-797 Notice of Action we got the APPROVAL Notice. May 11th 2021 - National Visa Center (NVC) sent K1 visa petition to the US Embassy in Bahrain. May 19th 2021 – US Embassy in Bahrain received our petition from NVC and mentioned the requirements in the email. While I was trying to get all the documents ready for the interview we hit a roadblock, it seems in the country of Bahrain a Bahraini woman cannot get a good conduct police certificate issued for the purpose of marriage outside of the country without her father if she’s unmarried yet. My family was totally against us and were not of any help. So we had to cancel the fiancé visa, and couldn’t think of anything else other than to just get married through proxy online due to the fact that we couldn’t be in the presence of each other to get married. June 30th 2021 - The double proxy marriage certificate was issued. September 27th 2021 - I tried to apply for a visit visa to the US to be present in the same place together “consummate the marriage” as it was a condition to apply the spouse visa i-130, but the embassy in Bahrain rejected it due to not enough strong ties to come back to the country. January 23rd 2022 to February 06th 2022 (2 Weeks) - My husband came for a visit to Bahrain and somehow during his trip we decided to be brave and tell my family that we already got married and they got super upset at first but then it worked out great. April 2nd 2022 - After that he applied for the i-130 spouse visa online so our receipt number is the same starts with IOE. June 10th 2022 to June 30th 2022 (3 Weeks) - my husband came back for a second visit as my parents requested a wedding party to be done so we can celebrate with the whole family. November 27th 2022 - I tried again to apply for a visit visa to the US because I wanted to try meet my in laws and spend time with his family before moving there permanently whenever the spouse visa gets approved but again the US Embassy in Bahrain were so rude, they didn't even look at the documents I had from my job and told me to not apply for a visit visa again. No changes in the case status so far... And we’ve been waiting since.. I just wanted to share this as it just feels like we have been waiting forever just to be together and to start our lives together and it’s all worth it, maybe this can give someone somewhere some hope to fight for their love.

Hii All, I'm so glad to hear everyone's case has been approved or at least moved. We Filed Online and as per the Form I-797C Notice of Action 1, our Service center was mentioned as Potomac in the letter… NOA1: 02 April 2022 We have contacted the USCIS and found out that our case was always in California Service Center.. We haven't received any update.. There is NO "your case is being processed" or anything., its still stuck at "we received your case on April 2nd 2022.." We haven't filed the K3 visa and kind of regretting it, should we file for K3 or is it too late , also do we have to pay any more fees for the K3 or is it free ??? We need help.. We miss each other so much

Sorry for the late reply, I talked to them during their hours of operation which are Monday to Friday, 8am to 8pm Eastern. The USCIS website has on the right side a little box that says "Need Help? Ask Emma". you will get a chat bot and I kept typing Live Chat, live chat, live chat until I got into the live chat, which I waited for almost an hour in line to get to the representative. When you connect with a representative, you have to give your case info, and the petitioner's info for security reasons. Then ask them what you want, they told me which Service Center our case is at.

I Chatted with USCIS through Emma With a Live Agent Chat, They told me that my service center is California Service Center. But the Form I-797C Notice of Action 1 mentioned at the bottom that our Service center is Potomac... Sooo I don't know which is correct.. So Confused with this process.

Hii Filed Online and as per the Form I-797C Notice of Action 1, our Service center is Potomac… NOA1: 02 April 2022 Still waiting for any updates… I miss my husband so much :(
