Update!!

Touched on 7/31 for I-130...

And then...

8/1 - both I-129F and I-130 approved! Finally.

For reference, it took 222 days to be approved. (That's 7 months, 9 days).

Now I need to figure out how to do the CR-1 thing... Can someone link me to a good guide for that?

Congratulations!!! :thumbs:

Excited for the next days to come.... We got a touched dated 08/01/2008 for both of our petition cases I-129f and I-130. :) Finally, after almost 5months of hearing nothing from USCIS hopefully one of this days, good news from VSC will clear our worried minds and put some joy in our hearts.

Hopefully this time its a good sign for us, its been a while huh! :dance:

Wishing everyone to get an approval very soon!

I must say this....The NVC is wayyyyyyyyyyyyy faster than the USCIS ! I am very impressed with there rapid updates. Also it really helps to have your stuff together ahead of time. The "james shortcuts" listed here on visa journey are very helpful. Our I-864 was in the NVC system before I even received the mailed notification.

We got a Notice of Action today (our second) but just to let us know that our case has been transferred from Vermont to California for a faster process (so they say). My new processing time date is January 17, 2008.

Did anybody received the same thing?

How's everyone's journey coming along?

I have given up, I hear nothing. Only two touches since Dec 07. First was receiving the original paper work we sent and then second touch was when we got transferred from Vermont to California.

Whenever it comes it will come, is just very depressing reading and watching for nothing.
