Interesting information regarding huge delays in I-130 processing

[MVD 6]

this process is so hard, if you don't keep a sense of humor.. it will drive you crazy aye??

keep your optimism up !!!! I read a few of your posts and I think you got the right frame of mind.. you will need it to help calm others

good luck!

I like your attitude! You're spot on.

While I am impatient too, I find it hard to get upset at an illegal immigrant whose parents brought him or her here as a child. It's not like they had a choice. But now they can be legal in the country in which they were raised. Based on what happened in Washington, DC at the Navy Yard today, I don't think crime is limited to illegal immigrants.

I assume that when Division XIII at Overland Park becomes operational (sometime before the end of September) we'll see some movement. Division XIII will handle stand-alone I-130s ONLY - so hopefully that will streamline the process. Those of you with I-130s with other forms, or doing DCF will go through another processing center.

Great reply! I am sponsoring my husband, we both live in CA right now and from what I understand there is no DCF for Canada so does that mean we will fit in that I-130 stand alone category?

this is so depressing! I have been Maried since Jan, 2013 and we barely filled in Jun, 2013 every single time I check something online regarding the topic I get all anxious. when we started the dates said 3-5 months. the time then changed 6-9 months, later it was 8.4-13.5 months or something like that. now it says 6-8.4 months. I dont know why though every time I want to check the service center it directs me to Vermont Service center... do you guys have an Idea where they are processing the cases?

hmmmm... IDK I only knew where my stuff is because I searched in USCIS.gov in the drop down menu for the I130 for us citizen filing for spouse and it only gives me the option of checking in the Vermont Services center.

hasn't been a 130 sent to Vermont for over a year

your receipt has msc?? yes??

that is nbc .. they have them all since last year, then route to a local office

new facility coming this month.. so could go there too.. just too hard to guess what is going on now

I am not familiar with the k3 processing other than they should stay at nbc for processing, but who knows these days

CA=Canada, not California, right? Canada does have DCF.

If it's any help to anyone here. My husband filed I-130 in Jan this year, Paperwork went to NVC 31st July and we are still waiting at NVC !!!

Yep it is all a complete drag .

6 months at USCIS now already 7 weeks at NVC.

Good luck guys we all sure do need patience right now.

Canada, and nope, no DCF as of this yr I think, all applications have to go through the NBC.

Urgh, I hadn't heard that, thanks for the info! Why'd they turf it? Seemed a really useful program.
