Hi,

I just received my NOA1 for the I-130 I'd filed for my spouse, who lives outside the USA. Though, I'm a bit surprised that the service center was California. I'm based in NJ. Anyone know what is going on? I thought my petition would go to Vermont Service Center.

Thank you in advance for your help!

i think they hired more people in CA so perhaps it just so it processes faster? All i can find is that the Chicago people will reroute it to where it's supposed to be.. and you'd hope theyk now what they're doing

Vanessa,

Thank you for your reply! That explains a lot. It takes a couple of days for regular mail to go from coast to coast. :)
