Changed from consular filing to AOS halfway...Now what?

[divemaster19 17]

Hi guys,

We initially applied I-130 with the idea of consular filing. Our files went to TSC so we figured it would take 7 months. Anyway I came to visit my USC wife in July and 4.5 months after filing the i-130 it was approved while I was here in the USA. I had been here for two weeks when it was approved.

Since I was admitted and legally in the country with a B-2 I qualified to file for AOS which I did.

Today I received a letter from NVC letting me know what the next step for consular processing is. This is where I am confused....what do I do next? Or should I let USCIS figure it out and ask NVC for my initial I-130 packet? Or is there a way I could inform NVC that I am adjusting status and no longer using consular filing?

Before anyone comes with silly comments, read the laws and rules on the USCIS website and you will see that this is perfectly legal and legitimate.

Thank You

Just include a copy of the i130 NOA2 at the front and you'll be good

I included a copy of the i-130 NOA2 after the adjustment of status form, followed by Affidavit , EAD, Advanced Parole and other supporting documents.

Thank you for the response.

You need to call NVC and let them know you are here in the States so they can forward your file back to USCIS.

I certainly will tomorrow. Thank you

Do you really need to call NVC? We didn't and everything seems ok, i assumed putting the noa2 in there would be enough.

So I sent my AOS last week Friday to the Chicago office and USPS says it was DELIVERED INDIVIDUAL PICKED UP AT POST FACILITY.

I have not received NOA1 for adjustment of status yet. The check has not been cashed as money is still in the account and what is crazier is that it says that it was "Delivered individual picked up at post facility, 2 minutes after ARRIVING at the post facility. Furthermore it arrived at the facility late at night. IS THIS NORMAL?

Sorry I am going crazy here since it took so much effort to get all the package put together.

Thank You
