Thanks for the congrats everyone!

Congrats on the interview date, Dave! I'm sad to see it's not quite as early as we expected. At least you have an end date, though! By the way, did they email you your interview date or was it in the automated system?

FRIENDS! I HAVE AN URGENT QUESTION!

My I-130 Priority date was April 29. I have been in the Philippines for the past month with my wife. We have been checking the USCIS page everyday. Even though I'm with my loved one, it was also a little depressing because we went over 120 days after NOA1.

This morning, I received an email from NVC. I thought this was odd, because the USCIS page STILL says under "Initial Review"

In the email, it says:

NVC Case Number: MNL2011******

Dear iamalmond:

The immigrant visa petition filed on behalf of Mrs. iamalmond has become eligible

for further processing at the National Visa Center (NVC).

Also, the AOS bill was attached along with the Choice of Agent form.

Does that mean our I-130 was approved? The USCIS page STILL says "Initial Review" as of this moment. I'm holding back most of my excitement until I know for sure!

[Ryan H 3,812]

Let your excitement out, you've been approved by USICS! Congrats!

Plus you have a case number from the NVC and the invoice for the AOS bill, you're ready to move forward.

Thanks Shanna! Any word on your end? I found out by calling DOS. I called NVC earlier but they were having issues and they told me call back in an hour. I was too anxious to find out so I called DOS.

I also go the Interview e-mail Friday afternoon/evening.

Thanks! Your NOA2 will come any day now...hang in there!

InshAllah, September is our 5th month. BUT so excited to see everyone moving right along. Wonderful gift to be together for the holidays

Just called back stateside and there was no NOA2 in the mail. USCIS website still says "Initial Review".

Yet I've already paid the AOS fee .

For those waiting for an NOA2, you might want to try calling NVC to see if they received your file.

Well I also thought about this too because I moved and changed my address with USCIS but when I changed my address with USPS I forgot to include the apartment number. However I did correct it within that same month.

I contacted our congressman's office last week and they are working on inquiring where our case is and I should hear something next week. At this point any news is better than Nothing.

So please keep us in your prayers and inshallah we will hear good news in a matter of a few days.
