Hi guys! I'm new to this thread, and I'm not familiar with the I-130. I filed my husband's petition last year, priority date Dec. 17, 2009. Yesterday I received the Approval Notice (yey!). I also checked the Visa Bulletin, and it says the cut-off date for September 2010 is Jan. 1, 2010, and that they are current. Can someone explain this to me?

I'm also in the process of doing my Naturalization, hoping that after I become a citizen, I could upgrade the petition. With the approval and cut-off dates, do you think upgrading the petition would still matter?

What should I expect after the approval? I don't really know the steps of the I-130. What happens after this? How long do you think it will take before my husband could get here?

Thanks in advance to those who will reply..

Kim11,

This mean NVC will now start processing your husband's case. In the coming weeks, you should be getting these stuff from NVC in the following order, "Choice of Agent", "Affidavit of Support " (AOS) and "Immigrant Application Form" (DS230).Processing depends on the response time you comply these docs,but in average would take 3-4 months to complete a case. If everything went well with the prcoessing, would safe to say your hubby should be here early next year.

And with regards to your US Naturalization application, i would rather hold it for the time being.

passport is being processed pa... but im just thankful sa atong isa ka friend diri... MISSY> she told me nga we have a similar issue and she tried attaching a letter with her ds-230 stating that her beneficiary's passport will just be during their interview since the processing system of the passport in her country (pinas) has now been change and it takes longer this time... and she had her case complete.

ill try to do that too.

Hi Mitch! I was looking over your timeline. How come there was a big gap between the approval and your 1st correspondence from NVC (DS-3032)?

Good to know maraming Filipino dito. May question lang ako, sana mabigyan nyo nang linaw ito. Yung lola ko po naka receive na nang approval notice sa USCIS. Nabasa ko po na it may take 3-4 months bago maprocess nang NVC yung case nang lolo ko. At this point, dapat po ba maghintay lang kami nang letter sa mail? or dapat po tawagan namin ang NVC para mag provide nang e-mail para sa choice of agent and affidavit of support letters?

Mayroon po bang step by step link para sa process nang NVC? thank you very much po and god bless!

i'll answer in behalf of f2a's who filed 2 to 4 years ago...

before, it will take you a couple of years before they'll approve the petition.so most of us took 3++ years to finally complete the case and be reunited with our family..

2009 and 2010 filers are so lucky that USCIS and NVC are working really fast right now..So don't be surprised if you read different timeline for f2a filers..

I tried calling 11:00 PM, philippines time. By the way, if you want to save some money when calling NVC or USCIS used Globe tipid card lols ... that is what I am using, only charge you 2.50 per minute.

thank you mrs C and odne... what do you think the rfe they sent me their asking for my AOS docs but they received it already on that day also which they sent also my rfe on that day... im having hard time to this i cant get my mind go straight u!!!!

[Mrs C 0]

clav214,

you're welcome. what is the content of the email they sent?

[clav214 0]

rfe regarding to my aos documents which its already at nvc at that day when they send the rfe... and i call immediately the nvc persons and it say's no we receive the documents and its not rfe hopefully avr wrong... because the person i talked to say's its ok... false rfe maybe but i have to be sure i need to call them and speak to another operator. what do u think?

your fine!!! as ive said before your checklist letter was generated before your AOS was entered in there system, RFE emails from NVC usually received 2days after checklist was generated, and so you in your case you got their RFE email which coincides on the day your AOS was entered in the system. If you want another answer then talk to other operator to confirm again. i observe it is easier to connect between 11am-12pm lunchtime here in PI. youll be fine!dont worry to much
