Yeah RKD, I wouldn't be worried, seems like the documents you sent are ok.. If not you'll know soon. Like the others said, you can call then just to make sure all is fine. Good luck on the waiting...

Hard copy...al so I tried to sign into the Web site using my receipt number, but was unable to do so. Apparently the site was recently updated causing some issues.

Congrats on the NOA2! Such a good feeling! I'm praying we don't need to actually get the hard copies...mail service in Honduras is terrible!

Congrats!!!! Check out the NVC wiki up top and start preparing your forms, collecting documentation in the meantime. It seems everything has slowed down so it'll be a few weeks at least before we even get going. Happy for you!

The paper will just tell you it is being sent to NVC I think, won't give you much info. Read the guides at wiki up top for that.

That seems to happen to almost everyone. Hopefully they are resolving the issue, but don't worry.

I haven't ever received any hard copys and I don't think they are necessary. Hope not :):oops: postal service sucks here too.

Hey everyone! I have been following this forum for awhile now, reading everyone's posts, and I'm starting to get a little worried. Maybe someone out there can help ease my anxiety! We sent our package in the end of October and received our NOA1 on November 3. I've seen in others' posts that their NOA1 told them where their package was sent to, but mine didn't. Here is what it said:

"The I-130, Petition for Alien Relative has been received by our office for the following beneficiaries and is in process..."

I found an article on here that describes the receipt number and what it means so because our number starts with EAC I assume it has been sent to Vermont but is it weird that our notice didn't directly say that?

Also, I was wondering if for those that can access their case status online anyone has noticed that their status changed before it was approved? I read a post where someone said that theirs showed "initial review" or something to that effect. Mine still says "Case was received". It also told me to follow the instructions on the form, but there really aren't any besides verifying that the information is correct. Am I missing something? For those that haven't been approved, what does yours say?

All this waiting is making me go crazy I think! Like everyone I just want this done as fast as possible! Thanks everyone! It is so nice to have this group!

Congrats on all the quick NOA2s, wow, I'm amazed. When you check your status, is it here you go? https://egov.uscis.gov/casestatus/landing.do

Ok so they received my K3 on Nov. 25 and my I-130 on November 6 let's see if the process speeds up with then both submitted or what happens

Seems to me bro that they jacked us off because we are on our 2nd. time and they are both from high fraud countries DR + Colombia.... So our papers were sent to Texas....where there is a 5-6 month wait.. I hope you get your NOA-2 asap because I am right behind you...Mabye they just dont like Jersey dudes...cant say for sure..

Im sure they are aware of this website and someone probably moniters it to see how bad people talk about them .. then the file get lost deeper and deeper into the pile...

We shall see next year in the spring...... CSC + VSC are moving fast.....but we are stuck in redneckville @ TSC ..

I have a question for you all getting these three week NOA2's. Are you all living in the US? Or is your spouse living here? I do not understand the discrepancy between the CSC, and the other service center's.

No, my husband and I are living abroad. I saw another thread where it seems like some cases are going faster when Usc is living abroad.. but who knows...
