Timeline

I am a U.S. Citizen. I filed applications I-485 and I-130 concurrently while my husband was in the U.S. My husband's applications were sent to the Chicago Lockbox. I filed a separate I-130 for my stepson who is still in Jamaica. My stepson's application was sent to the Chicago Lockbox and transferred to the Vermont Service Center. My husband's applications (I-485 and I-130) were approved on May 19, 2014. I would like to know if my stepson's I-130 application will be pulled and processed now, based on my husband's approval or will we have to wait the current 5 month processing time for stand alone I-130 applications?

I am in the same boat and for what I was told, you will have to go thru the same process. 5 Months (Hopefully Less).

My wife process is at NVC now and I submitted my steps daughters I-130 two weeks ago. I am hoping since she is 5 years old she gets approve quickly.

They are taking a lot longer than 5 months.

Thanks to everyone for your feedback. Right now the Vermont Service Center's processing time is 5 months. I hope that this information is accurate. I filed for my stepson in March 2014, so 2 months down-3 months to go (hopefully).

I made an expedite request on yesterday afternoon. Approximately 1 hour after my request was submitted I received a notice that my request was denied because my son's application is with an adjudicator.

Have you received an approval on your step daughter's case? I have followed February 2014 I-130 filers on VJ and VSC February filers are getting approvals.
