I had done an application for permission to reapply which was accepted, but they wanted me to also do a I-601 waver and I decided not to do it since I was only 6 moths away from the 10 yrs to be done. And because I had gone to an interview at the consulate earlier, they just issued the visa on my passport that was sent to the consulate 3 weeks before the 6 moths was over. After that I got my plane tickets. Reading the us customs and border patrol website, I found out that when going to the immigration at the port of entry I would mandatorily would have to go to a secondary inspection due to the nature of the visa (IR1 immigrant visa) and that could take a few hours, so I got my plane ticket going through Canada since I did not want to loose my next plane, I bought a ticket with at least 3 hours of layover. everything went smooth an I got my green card I think 2 or 3 moths after arriving in Marlborough MA. My social arrived first. That's all my experience was. Thanks. Processing Estimates/Stats : Your I-130 was approved in 160 days from your NOA1 date.

*Notice about estimates: The estimates are based off averages of other members recent experiences
(documented in their timelines) for the same benefit/petition/application at the same filing location.
Individual results may vary as every case is not always 'average'. Past performance does not necessarily
predict future results. The 'as early as date' may change over time based on current reported processing
times from members. There have historically been cases where a benefit/petition/application processing
briefly slows down or stops and this can not be predicted. Use these dates as reference only and do not
rely on them for planning. As always you should check the USCIS processing times to see if your application
is past due.
