I sent the package I-130 on sept. 17, 2009. I still have not received the NOA1. I read a lot of I-130 timelines and they usually get it in a couple of days. My question is that when they receive the package, do they cash the money order right away? I called the money order company and they show that they still have not cash the money order.

Thanks

How did you send your package?

Our timeline:

2/88: We met in Sydney, Australia at a youth hostel! He's Finnish, I'm American-both were in our early 20s at the time and fresh out of college (so couldn't afford to visit each other's countries after that!). We had a three-day romance, then went our separate ways. He actually was going to Sydney a week later, but decided at the last minute to cut his trip short in another country and go early. Wow.

1988-1998: Wrote "snail mail" letters/sent Xmas cards, but lived our separate lives. I married someone else, divorced in 2006...he lived with someone for years and then that ended.

10/08: Because of a series of random life events, I Googled my Finn Man and found him (but no link to his email, and the website his name was on was in Estonian so I couldn't even read it!). It took me two weeks to find a link to someone else, who forwarded my email to him (we were both single at the time thankfully!!!!). The email went to his spam folder but he happened to check it that day and responded back to me immediately! This was after 10 years of no contact and almost 21 years of not seeing each other after we first met.

11/08-5/09: We traveled back and forth to visit each other. Love at first (second?) sight!

7/09: Married in Helsinki, Finland...after meeting randomly 21 1/2 years ago and finding each other again!!!!!

8/13/09: I-130 sent!!!!!!!!!

Rest is on my timeline!

They should definitely have your package especially if you sent it express mail like most people. It's a good chance that if the money order has not been deposited, it will be by Monday 9/28. Although it doesn't matter, I personally used a post office money order. It's been just over a week so you should be receiving the NOA in the coming week. Congratulations and welcome to the game.

Ours was cashed after 1 week. Are you able to confirm delivery of your package even though it was sent through regular mail? That might help.

Good luck and welcome to the waiting game! :)
