What are you insinuating about the December K1 Filers at CSC? That they're doing ours and stopped working on Dec I-130s? If so, I would appreciate you not use the Dec K1's as an excuse for your wait

Hello! We also did not receive an email when Chicago Lock box received our I-130. We just checked the tracking number from FedEx to see if it has been delivered. We did receive a text though (no email AGAIN) for our NOA1. My husband called USCIS to check if they have the right email address on their file and guess what, they can't say. :whistle: Our receipt number is not even working :bonk: , that means we can't check as well through USCIS website if our case has been touched or what. The agent from USCIS said that it's normal. She (agent) told my husband that what matters is the hard copy. We received our NOA1 hard copy 3 days after we received a text message from USCIS.

Goodluck on your visa journey!

Mine was two weeks between sending off the I-130 to getting the email, so just have some patience...well, and I'm sure it gets crazy with Christmas time and all the end of the year stuff they have to do in USCIS.

Hello everyone,

I can now officially add us as December filers. My husband gave us both the best Christmas gift possible and was able to file our I-130 today!

The post office had closed before he got a chance to put everything together so he ran straight to FedEx. I sure hope that's ok and our application will be accepted. ??

Anyway, Happy Holidays everyone! Good luck to us all.
