that's the approval of the first form, the i130. then the approved form was sent to NVC or national visa center where you have to wait until your priority date becomes current. you have to check the visa bulletin, they are working on cases sent in 2001 so you have around 6 more years of waiting. check every month the visa bulletin.

Thank you very much for your help. What exactly is this in terms of VJ? NOA1

Are you saying that you received this email notice nearly three years ago, and you're just now asking what follow up you need to do?

It sounds like NOA 2. If so, usually they send you instructions on what to do next- as this has been 3 years ago, they may have assumed you are no longer interested in immigrating. However, as your priority date is not yet current (they are working on April 2001 sibling petitions right now), that probably saved you, as it will be another 6 years until you get an interview.

1. call into USCIS - go over the casefile status.

2. inquire about the priority date, ask if you are getting close to your priority date BEING CURRENT.

If priority date is current or if it's past the current date

3. Call into NVC, talk with a NVC TeleOperator, and start the VISA APPLICATION PROCESS.

Study Loto's Wiki Page - http://www.visajourney.com/wiki/index.php/How_to_bring_your_foreign_spouse_to_live_in_the_US

as the doc intake requirements are exactly the same, at NVC .

Knowing your place in the queue, however, is really important.

Usually, for your visa designation/type - the approved I-130 is sent to storage at the National Records Center - and it sits there waiting for the priority date to become current.

Usually, you can tell when you are current by viewing the Visa Bulletin.

We've a few hundred monthly threads about predicitions on Current Priority Date movement - I invite you to find them, read a bit.
