Our I-130 was approved on July 30 at CSC! 22 days from NOA1 :joy:

Make sure to check the egov.uscis.gov website daily! Of course we provided an email address upon submission, but have so far found out all updates from the official website.

Random sidenote: So happy we got placed at CSC not only because it is fast, but it's my hometown and I actually went to preschool inside the same building (one of the strangest looking ones in Orange County-looks like a sand pyramid)! Literally lived 3 minutes from here my whole life and drove past it multiple times a day for the first 18yrs of my life...if only that counted for something! Funny, but I would've been pretty sad had I been routed somewhere I had not seen everyday of my life! :goofy:

Good luck going forth to everyone!

OMG congratulations!!! so happy for you :) I am now going to be obsessively checking my case status more than usual :):)

I just received an update from USPS and it said that my application will be delivered on Monday, which is a 13th. At least it is not a Friday and I hope that number 13 on a Monday will be a blessing (

Hi Pumpita. Yes, I would call and try to find out. I'm sorry you didn't get any notification yet :(

Congratulations to theskeets! now I"m going to be checking myuscis every half hour I'm awake instead of every hour :D

Thanks oncefuturealien! So, I called to USCIS, they gave me the 3 receipt Numbers. I checked them at MyUSCIS but there is no info, only a message that says they received my application and that they sent a notice. So I will continue to check online to see if something else shows up.
