Hello all! This is just the kind of place I have been searching the internet high and low for!

I am living in the UK, and have done so for a year 1/2 but somehow missed the fact that we could have applied through the embassy in London.

I sent my I-130 to the Chicago Lockbox facility about a month and a 1/2 ago, but still have no heard anything. Should I be worried?

2013-22-05: Sent I-130 to Chicago Lockbox

2013-10-06: NOA1 received - Petition at Overland Park, Kansas

2013-11-12: Email stating our I-130 has been transferred to a local USCIS Office

2013-13-12: Email stating our I-130 was transferred and is now being processed at a USCIS office

Have now decided to do DCF through the London Embassy:

2013-22-10: Overnighted a second I-130 to London

2013-24-10: NOA1

2013-21-11: Letter requesting that we cancel our I-130 petition filed in the U.S.

2013-09-12: NOA2

Nothing and we filled in the form to receive electronic notification. We used our address is the UK on all of our forms. Should I try calling them?

Yeah, a month and a half is a long time to be waiting for a receipt. I'd get in contact. If it got lost, go DCF :P
