I've finally made progress on my parents' applications. Both sets of financial/supporting docs have been collected, AOS forms filled. Finished one IV form, one more to go. The only reason I haven't sent the supporting docs yet is I"m waiting for one police clearance certificate...

How is everyone else doing with their docs??

Hi, I'm a winter filer too, sent at the end of January but was NOA1 was dated Feb 9 2016.

Mine was I-130, for my father. I just received a RFE from service center yesterday. Can someone help me?

I'm a US citizen. My parents divorced. He is currently married to my step mother. I'm only applying for my father. So the documents I sent was:

1. The divorced certification of my father and my mother

2. My father's marriage certificate with my step-mother

3. My birth certificate

4. My US passports

The RFE is asking for my father's marriage certificate to my mother. I feel it's strange because my parents already divorced and I did provide their divorced certificate. Is it normal to request for their marriage certificate? The local government already took their marriage certificate away since they divorced.

Thank you.

It is useful to actually research and read all the wonderful helpful pages on here, it is all spelled out clearly.

They want the Marriage Certificate as proof that you were born in wedlock - you`re bringing over your father, that`s why. No Marriage Certificate needed for mother. See this page:

The I-130 clearly states that if its a father who is being petitioned, they need the marriage certificate as well.

If you do the same mistake of not providing proper documentation, expect huge delays in NVC and consular stage of the process.

It`s been three and a half months since I sent out my application and there has not been any movement whatsoever on it, last touched was the first of February. Should I be calling USCIS and if I do, would there be any result at all? I doubt they would speed it up just because I call and inquire, right? Let me know if any of you called and what happened. THANK YOU!

Count 4.5 months from your NOA1 date.

Expect something after 2nd week of June. Dont call USCIS, they will not know anything except last touch date which you already know.

If you hear something from them before that, consider yourself lucky.

I meant 4 to 4.5 months from the Priority date on your NOA1

FINALLY!

Mom`s case got approved today! Three weeks before the 5 month "USCIS deadline"!

:joy: :P :dance: B-)

And now on to the real business of making sure all the little details of our mountains of paperwork are perfect!

I am so happy!
