Hi all,

I just received a text message this morning confirming that the Chicago lockbox office had accepted my recently-submitted I-130 petition, and that they have routed it to the National Benefits Center (NBC) for processing. From what I understand, this is also known as the Missouri service center (MSC).

But interestingly, if I head to the USCIS website and pull up the processing times for the NBC/MSC, they provide a list of times by form - but the I-130 petition isn't one of them.

Granted, I'm just a week into this whole ordeal so I'm not exactly panicking or anything here... but doesn't this seem a bit odd?

Thanks in advance.

Congratulations! You're the 1000th person to point this out.

You don't get a prize, but you do have my tip o' the hat to you and best wishes!! :)

:lol: Just kidding around with you. It's something that a lot of people are experiencing right now with the transfer from the service centers to NBC. Unfortunately they just haven't updated the processing times to show the I-130. They've had a few months to put this form on their site, but still haven't completed that update. They may or may not update it. Most people are saying that it should take between 5-6 months or so for approval, but only time will tell!

Good luck with your journey! And please only take the beginning of this post as a joke. I'm really not that mean. I'm just razzing the new guy! :)
