Transfer Notice

[immillpind 0]

In the I-129F package list on VJ it states a Transfer Notice, but i didn't receive any, is this normal?

Also I am including 1 photo during my time in India, and perhaps phone logs, is there anything else I should consider including, or should i not even include those items?

Where did you send your I-130 application? From the Guide:

"Effective December 3, 2007, all petitioners filing stand-alone Form I-130 are encouraged to submit their petitions to the Chicago Lockbox instead of a USCIS Service Center. I-130 petitions filed with the Chicago Lockbox will be routed to, and adjudicated at, the appropriate USCIS Service Center. This routing will be based on the petitioner’s place of residence in the United States. You will receive a notice in the mail indicating what Service Center your petition was routed to.

Petitioners who reside in AK, AZ, CA, CO, Guam, HI, ID, IL, IN, IA, KS, MI, MN, MS, MT, Nebraska, NV, ND, OH, OR, SD, UT, WA, WI, or WY are encouraged to file their stand-alone Form I-130s with the Lockbox using the following address: USCIS P.O. Box 804625 Chicago, IL 60680-1029

Petitioners who reside in AL, AR, CT, DL, FL, GA, KY, LA, ME, MD, MA, MI, NH, NJ, NM, NY, NC, OK, PA, Puerto Rico, RI, SC, TN, TX, VT, VA, U.S. Virgin Islands, WV, or District of Columbia are encouraged to file their stand-alone Form I-130 with the Lockbox using the following address: USCIS P.O. Box 804616 Chicago, IL 60680-1029

Provide AS MUCH PROOF OF A BONAFIDE MARRIAGE as possible. I included our own story, 2 avidavits from friends (could ask family members to write something), pictures, names joint on bank account, any bills you may have with both names on them, anything and everything. You don't want to get an RFE as that just holds things up...more is better than not enough.

Good luck!

yea we had a joint account and i sent a copy of that as proof with my I-130, not a whole lot else though.

well i sent it to Nebraska service center accidently as it was stated on the I-130. anyway i got my NOA1 and it went from the Chicago lockbox to California service center (or maybe NSC forwarded it directly to CSC). i dont know, but i got my NOA1 fairly quickly. this may be the reason i never got my transfer notice?

Not sure about the Transfer Notice as I'm sure you didn't receive it due to USCIS error! You may have wanted to add a note on your cover sheet that you never received it...
