:(:(Its been well over four weeks and still no words from CIS regarding my NOA1. :(:(

I called my bank and also checked the account online to see if the check has been cashed yet and it has not.!

I then called USCIS and finally spoke to a immigration specialist after two hours of hold time on phone. I Had her check the database to see if our case is entered onto their system but HELL NO !! However, I must say she was nice enough to give me 24x7 fax# of USCIS and was advised to fax them a copy of my certified Mail's receipt to ensure my package has been picked up by an OFFICER for futher immigration processing.Because sometimes evenif USCIS receives the package, it could possibly be just sitting in their mailbox and never been picked by immi officers. I sent the fax right away couple of days ago and still haven't heard anything.

What should I do guys ? Any ideas ? Should i go ahead and refile ? I am very much worried and not to mention leaving with my girl is getting even tougher. I miss her and cant take this anymore :help:

hey, sorry to hear about your situation, I don't know if refiling is a good idea, I would just keep on calling until you get some kind of confirmation one way or the other. I'm kind of new so maybe others can give you better advice. Good Luck.

I am sure, you have the proof that the Nebraska (From your profile) Service Center had received your petition. Nebraska then foward it to California Service Center. You may want to email the California Service Center. Explain them everything. The email address is: CSC-XII.130@dhs.gov

You can also contact your local congressman and/or your state senator(s) office and seek their advices.

I-130 Timeline with USCIS:

It took 92 days for I-130 to get approved from the filing date

NVC Process of I-130:

It took 78 days to complete the NVC process

Interview Process at The U.S. Embassy

Interview took 223 days from the I-130 filing date. Immigrant Visa was issued right after the interview

Relax... it could take them up to 4 to 6 weeks to get you an NOA1, especially if it was forwarded to another service center. If your receipt showed that they got it, they got it. Hang tight for a few more weeks.

My husband filed my I130 to TSC on June 13th. Confirmed received on June 14th and we haven't received an NOA yet either. Like you, I'm getting worried also. But based on other replied I've received, I'm gonna hang in there and wait a while longer.

Unfortunately patience is the name of the game here, it depends on many things and it can be weeks or months, check out my time line and others and you will see what I mean
