Hello,

i'm German and my hubby is USC.

I moved to Canada and my hubby is at this moment in the States.

We married in 02/14 in Germany and we filed (shipped) the I-130 to the Chicago Lockbox on 08/04/14. Arrived on 08/06/14.

How long does it take to get a first reaction? We attached the E-Notification Form, but didn't got any text/ email yet.

Or do they just send the Receipt-Nr. to the address we provided on the I-130 (the part obout the petitioner)?

Greetings

Patrick

Hi Patrick,

It varies a lot. For some people it has taken only couple weeks. Normally is several months down the road. Ours took seven months. Unfortunately there is a backlog of cases being reviewed at the present time, so it might be longer. For the whole process, from submitting your I-130 to get the case completed, you guys are looking at 12 months or so.

It's a tedious process. Just have to be patience and wait.

Good luck,

Mario

Not sure how it is at the moment. Two years ago, when we filed, it took five days to receive the e-notification. Good luck!

Hello,

so finally i got my receipt notice, but i forgot to give them our marriage status :( stupid me. At least i have the receipt-nr, lol

I received the letter, with th reason why it was rejected and i have to send the whole package again, ok fine.

They said they return it with the fees.

I received the letter stating this, does it mean i get the "package" seperate?

Yes, they send the package separately. I'm not sure whether creating a whole new one would be faster.

ROC from CR-1 visa (Green Card expiration date was Nov 24th 2016)

 

Link to the evidence I submitted. Be sure to send evidence spanning your entire marriage (especially for K-1) or as far back as you can. Just one or two bank statements will not cut it. I primarily focused on the two years of living here since I came in on a CR-1. If you don't have the fundamentals (i.e. joint accounts/policies), you can explain why in the covering letter. E.g. "While we do not have joint utilities, we both contribute to them from our joint bank account".

 

September 26th 2016: I-751 package sent to CSC

September 28th 2016: Package delivered
September 30th 2016: Check cashed
October 3rd 2016: NOA1 received with receipt date of 09/28/16
November 3rd 2016: Biometrics received with appointment date of 11/14/16.
November 14th 2016: Attended biometrics appointment
October 30th 2017: Infopass appointment to get I-551 stamp
February 26th 2018: I-751 case number (aka the NOA1 receipt number) becomes trackable
March 14th 2018: Submitted service request due to being outside of processing time.

March 15th 2018: ROC approved. 535 days (1 year, 5 months and 17 days)

March 29th 2018: Card being produced

April 4th 2018: Card mailed out

April 6th 2018: Card in hand. Has incorrect "resident since" date. Submitted service request on I-751 case (typographical error on permanent resident card) and an I-90 online.

April 2018 - August 7th 2018: Tons of service requests, emails and now senator involvement to get my corrected green card back because what the heck, USCIS. Also some time in May I sent a letter to Potomac telling them I want to withdraw my I-90 since CSC were handling it.

August 8th 2018: Card in production thanks to the direct involvement of Senator Sherrod Brown's team

August 13th 2018: Card mailed

August 15th 2018: Card in hand with correct date. :joy:

October 31st 2018: Potomac sends out a notice stating they have closed out my I-90 per my request. Yay for no duplicate card drama.
