Hi all,

I am new here. It's been very helping reading everyone's journey and advices.

I filed my I-130 in October (I am in US) Got a I-797C Notice of Action telling me that my case has been received on OCt 21 and Notice date on Oct 27. Check has been cashed. However I still haven't received my package from NVC (NOA1 package)

I see a lot of you have received the package in the mail within a week or two. Mine has been a month now. I checked on USCIS website and entered my receipt number, and it's telling me that my case is still being reviewed. But I don't know how updated their website is currently operating.

I am really frastrated. Should I call USCIS and find out what's going on? Is a month long wait from NOA normal at all?

Any advices?

Thanks,

Bucky

What package are you waiting to receive from NVC?

If you've filed for a CR1 and have received your NOA1, you know have to wait for a NOA2 -- approval of the I130 petition. Which at the rate CSC is going now, it's going to be a while.

Good luck on your visa journey.

Thanks for your quick reply.

I am applying CR-1 for my wife. I sent in my I-130 package in October. I thought I am suppose to received a package from NVC so I can process with DS-3032, I-864, DS-230 and so on. Am I missing something here?

I guess I am waiting for NOA2 then after reading about NOA. I did get my NOA1 from USCIS on Oct 27.

CSC is currently snoozing. Big time. It's infuriating as hell. But there's nothing to do apart from waiting. You can read up on the guides for the NVC stage to make sure you have everything ready so you are good to go when the time comes. The I-864, DS 3032, and DS 230 are all part of the NVC stage. Try and get a headstart on those required documents while you wait for the NOA2.

Thanks for your reply again. I guess I didn't know about my NOA1 (which I have recieved) and now is on the wait for NOA2. Just in the same boat like everyone here.

Thanks!
