Hello all,

As I have mentioned in several threads about my I-130 that got approved on 02/19/08 but still haven't reached NVC yet and it's been about 4 weeks, and my I-129F is still on pending for approval at USCIS.

Here I want to start a new thread for those people whose I-130 or I-129 (but not both) case has been approved but hasn't reached NVC yet. I just want to get an idea if I am not the only one waiting on this :crying:...

Also I have tried to call USCIS couple of times but cust serv rep won't let me talk to immigration officer and give me all kinds of smart info that I really don't want to know. Is there a way to call immigration officer for approval cases without involving the cust serv reps :blink:

I started my case as K3 but USCIS delayed in approving I-129F, and now my case is processing as IR-1/CR-1 at NVC.

well i called couple of times even one time got escalated to some L2 cust serv and both times after finding out that I have applied for my spouse, they told me I-130 is going to take about 6 years at least, since you have also applied for I-129F therefore wait for that to be approved and then it's going to be faster because of K3 visa

last month when i spoke with immigration officer she told me i don't need to worry about my I-129F, since I-130 is approved, and I-129F is going to be closed administratively

When you call the USCIS use the option for the already approved petitions. I believe it is optoin 1, but it has been since November since I used it. This will get you past the mis-information CSRs.

Naturalization

3/23/14 - N400 package sent to Phoenix

3/27/14 - N400 package delivered

4/3/14 - NOA1 receipt date

4/4/14 - check cashed

04/29/14 - biometrics date

07/01/14 - interview date

xx/xx/xx - Oath Ceremony

Yes, I usually use the option for already approved petition, but then it still goes to the CSRs, I can't avoid them :wacko:
