We received our initial Notice Of Action (NOA1) on Friday in the mail to us here in Canada:

I-130 was sent overnight on 15Sep2011 to Chicago Lockbox.

According to our I-797C, they received it on 19Sep2011.

The notice date is 20Sep2011, stating they forwarded it to California Service Center for processing.

Our intended next step was to proceed with a I-129F petition for a K-3 visa.

In the course of several phone calls in the past few days to USCIS and NVC for assistance with this new petition,

the USCIS customer service center informed me that our I-130 petition had been approved. I then went to uscis.gov

and learned the same thing. According to the agent and the status on their web page, they mailed out another NOA &

I-797C on the 26th.

How could we have been approved in only one week? Is this a mistake? Or do I misunderstand the information?

The only possible explanation for such a quick response is that they already started our background checks and other paperwork from the I-129F petition we filed in June for a Fiance Visa. We filed this while engaged but then decided to proceed to a wedding with her family outside the US. We filed the I-130 petition the week we arrived home in Canada.

Would they have transfered the work on the I-129F over to the I-130?

Done: I-130/CR-1, I-751/ROC

Done: I-327
