What does this mean?

Hello everyone!

This is my first post ever here! However, if it wasnt because of this website I do not know what would I have done with myself! It is so freaking helpful that it is not even funny.

Anyways I am going to make my question simple. I sent my application for fiance visa for my fiance who lives in Cuba last friday 2/6/09 and to my surprise the check was already cashed today. What does this mean? It has only been 1 week, does this mean they are already reviewing the petition? Because I think it was wayy to fast or is this the right timing? Keep in mind I have not received any letters from them or anything? Please anybody help! I am so excited! Or should I not be?

It means the envelope arrived, they opened it and cashed the check, nothing more. Well, except that you paid the correct fee.

It means they have taken your money and accepted your petition for processing. Placed the submission in in the queue (a box) and will take a look at it 4-5 months from now.

And that they will probably soon be issuing the NOA1...which contains your case number to be able to review the status of your case online. They also put the case number on the back of the check, so if you have online banking you will probably be able to get that case number now. The NOA2 is what you are really really looking for...and what so many of us are still waiting for. Get in line and pray for patience!

Are you serious? 4-5 months from now???wow =-( ....I was thinking since they cashed it so fast it mean the process would be fast. How can it be possible they get the money so fast..but so long to review the application..thanks for bursting my bubble!

Unfortunately, many things that USCIS does doesn't make sense. They seem to cash the checks with no problems.... it's the processing of the case that they aren't so quick about.

Just have some patience and you should soon be receiving your NOA1, and then, hopefully, the NOA2.

Best wishes for a successful process.

You already have th answer to that. They take the check off the top and deposit it and put the file in a box until they're ready to process the case.

Good for you! NOA1 and NOA2 shouldn't take too long (it goes quicker for Cubans) meantime you should have him go get:

1. birth cirtificate

2. a certificate or paper (forgot what they call it) saying that he is SOLTERO or if he was previously married a DIVORCE certificate

3. antecedentes penales ----- POLICE RECORD CHECK (you could wait until a month before the interview for this one so you can have a recent one)

4. a PASSPORT for this you don't need to provide them (immigration) with a reason why, you can just go and apply for it

meantime, mantain a record of ALL:

1. phone calls

2. emails

3. pictures

you will need to provide these at the interview, also start working on your I-134, gather you W-2 and tax returns, pay stubs, letter from employer and/or bank. Start saving up for a trip to Cuba because IT HELPS to be at the interview if you are able to ...ITS NOT A MUST....BUT it helps

GOOOD LUCK! and just ask if you need more info
