LizScott,

You still havent received your NOA1 yet? i was thinking you should get yours by today...

What day did the Chicago Lockbox receive it?

Dont worry, hopefully you should get it by tomorrow.

Still nothing... My husband said be patient- easier said than done! They received our Petition on May 3.

LizScott,

Yes, patience is something we really need for this visa process! I hope you get your NOA1 today!

WHsoulmates,

Chicago Lockbox received my I-130 on May 3rd and I received my NOA1 on the 13th. So they took about 10 days. Hopefully that will be the same for you and LizScott too.

Hi Birch Beer,

I see your case is also at Vermont Service Center. You are about 2 weeks ahead of me for the I-129F. Please keep us posted on your progess since we are at the same service center. I been reading so much bad stuff about VSC here that i am getting nervous. Keep in touch and good luck

hi all! quite new here.. i'm just going to add myself this list. I sent the I-130 April 30, but wasn't received till May 8 in Chicago. Since then, i have checked online to see if my check has been cashed. Sure enough, on May 15, check cashed. But i still haven't received my NOA1. So i waited and waited. Finally, May 19, i got it in the mail.. Said that the Received date was May 8, Notice date was May 13. It took 5 days to get to me? CSC is in southern california, where i'm from.. sheeesh.. I then signed up online on the USCIS website. Said there that my petition was updated May 14. That means "touched," right? i'm so clueless..

now i'm deliberating on whether to go ahead and file for a K3 or stick with this CR1.. don't understand too much of the CSC timeline and the Manila consular office.. any advise out there pls? thanks...
