2 weeks after I-130 approval and still no interview letter.

Hello everyone,

USCIS informed me my petition was approved Jan 4th and forwarded to the Visa Unit and if they are aware I'm in possession of all the documents via the checklist, I'll get a interview letter within the next few days, i faxed off the checklist the day after I filed the I-130. So after one week when it didn't come, I emailed them and they did not even have the petition yet, mind you, USCIS is upstairs. So here I am2 weeks later and nothing. Anyone been in this situation or know how long it takes from approval to letter?????

Thanks.

It should be there soon, look at some I-130 time lines for some averages.

Thanks, I emailed them and they. Emailed me to say it was processed today and my interview is on the 1st of feb. Happy but also annoyed it takes a month from approval to interview. I miss my husband, this is worse than a deployment lol

Congrats on the approval and interview. It's still very quick compared to other consulates. I understand what you mean by this is worse than a deployment. We went 2 years with him deployed and I swear the 11 months we took with the visa was worse.

I know. I am sorry to complain. We filed a month to late. He was here up until the end of dec so we are only going to be apart for 6 weeks and we are already half way through it. We have do e a 15mo and a 12 mo deployment, and I think this feels worse because he is just sittin in the states andi am sitting here. I can call him now, so this really is easier. All the best.
