Hey Guys,

Just an update..

my daughter case status change to initial review today and and i also got an email stating that a notice was send to my husband but the post office returned it to USCIS.

I am worry about what the notice says......

Is it an approval or a request for additional evidence? I am in queue for interview appointment and then this .. Gosh

Looky i try that Link you send me and I was told that her case wasn't outside of normal processing time so i should wait and i got this today....

Hi Restrion, well its good news that you heard something about your daughters case. If your husband is sure that the addresses match (USCIS and home address he should have USCIS resend the letter. Yes the case has to be outside of processing times for them to do anything, but I guess now you've heard something so there's no need. I imagine for your daughter their main concern is to verify that she is your husbands daughter also or there is no custody issue. Hoping for more good news from you soon!

NOT RESPOND TO THIS E-MAIL ***

There has been a recent processing action taken on your case.

Receipt Number: xxxxxxxxxxx

Application Type: I130, IMMIGRANT PETITION FOR RELATIVE, FIANCE(E), OR ORPHAN

Your Case Status: Initial Review

On June 22, 2016, the Post Office returned a notice we sent you for your Form I130, IMMIGRANT PETITION FOR RELATIVE, FIANCE(E), OR ORPHAN, Receipt Number LIN1690316069, because they could not deliver it. This could have a serious effect on your case. Please go to www.uscis.gov/e-request to request a copy of the notice immediately. If you move, go to www.uscis.gov/addresschange to give us your new mailing address.

During this step, USCIS initiates the background checks of the applicant/petitioner and identifies issues that may need to be addressed either during an interview or by asking the applicant/petitioner to submit additional information or documentation. USCIS reviews the applicant's/petitioner's criminal history, determines if there are national security concerns that need to be addressed, and reviews the application/petition for fraud indicators. If you have filed an I-485, I-589, I-751, N-400, I-90, I-821, I-131 or I-765, you can expect to receive an appointment notice to appear at an Application Support Center to have your fingerprints and/or photographs taken. The timing of your appointment is determined by the number of applicants ahead of you that also need a biometric appointment. We try to schedule biometric appointments as quickly as possible and in most cases you will receive your appointment notice within 30 days of submitting your application. We will send your appointment notice approximately 14 days ahead of your scheduled appointment. It is important that you keep this appointment. If absolutely necessary, you can request that your appointment be rescheduled however, please be aware that rescheduling may delay the processing of your application. Please follow the instructions on your appointment notice if you need to reschedule. Occasionally, you may receive an appointment notice to appear at an Application Support Center to have your fingerprints taken when you have filed a form other than those listed above. In these situations, you may receive your appointment notice more than 30 days after submitting your application or petition.

This is what i received this morning Looky..

I hoping so too

Hi Restrion, lets hope for the best! I can't really tell what 'Initial Review' means it may be standard for someone who is getting the Visa on the basis of being a family member. Like it said they may require some more background checks and things.

Let the letter come and then hopefully it'll give you a better idea of what's going on. :blink:

yes in 2011

but it will be very hard for my wife to travel to get her visa from her place

she will ask the CO if they can send it to the nearest purolator center in Saskatchewan ( which is not listed in the list of participating locations )

Yea it looks like the closest for my wife is in Toronto, 5 1/2 hours away (where she is right now because it's also the closest medical!) You can really tell that they care when they do things like this... :ranting:

I just spoke to NVC just now and my case hasn't arrived yet. This is crazy. I think its being delayed on purpose. Other Centers sent theirs within 2 weeks. Its been 23 days now. Damn

finally case complete. I just called NVC to confirm. God is great. I thought I would receive a checklist.
