Dcf a few days ago

[JenniferNangel 137]

Hi I'm curious since I just filed the I-130 for my husband a few days ago, am I able to sign up on the uscis or nvc website to check our case ?? I'm so anxious right now i want to start checking and see what's going on with our case

Also anybody else that dcf in dr can you tell me your experience please or any feedback

I'm ready to return home already

USCIS does not have your case.

You filed at embassy you need to contact them.

[JenniferNangel 137]

I think I gave my app to uscis because I needed the embassy permission first to file with uscis. I'm not sure if you been to the embassy in dr but everything is in the same building and I went to window 14 which was in a room and not just a window. They told me 30 days to review the case and then it'd go to the nvc in dr

Uufffff all this is confusing

[Anitafeliz 1,133]

Oh ok im confussed to. I thought direct file meant the embassy handled it alone.

[JenniferNangel 137]

So did I at first but it's different your basically filing in the embassy but it's through uscis and then the guy said the case will go to the visa place in dr (I think it's nvc but who knows )

Dcf is handled locally and never leaves the country. That is the whole point of dcf and why it is faster.

We got Ceac status updates once the I-130 was approved and we could follow updates then.

Before that we just waited on the Embassy.

Hth

Where were you able to follow for the updates what website?? I remember reading your story before, how fast was dcf for you ?? I'm pregnant in a zika infested country and that's my main concern I'm trying to have me my husband and belly in USA before I give birth. Plus the heat is starting to really effect me physically

If you google ceac you will get the website:)

But u must have your case number which they don't give until you get the i 130 approved.

We got two REFs and that pushed our time to 5 months. Otherwise it would have been 2 months:)

Also I did the email notification form while they give me the number when it's approved?? They gave me a email address and said to ask about in a month what is going on with his I-130 but is the email notification faster ??

You'll receive an acceptance notification from USCIS. The notice will inform you that the case has been accepted, and a case number. Then it is sent to one of several Visa processing centers around the country. Hopefully you have received the notification by now. Have patience. The USCIS is responsive and will let you know if something is missing or has not been completed properly.

No nothing yet we're still waiting. The guy at uscis that took the application said it takes about a month. I front loaded the app I believe it was over 60 photos and 15+ pages of conversation between me and and also my family. I'm just so ready to go home I'm getting closer to my due date so I'm not comfortable anymore

If you're in the Dominican Republic, it might take you more time to get a response from USCIS. I'm not sure if "frontloading" your application at this point is going to help with the processing. Usually that's best saved for the interview.

Hang in there. All will be well.

I have 2 copies of everything so when we have the interview I can show them if needed. I thought it would be best since dr is a high fraud country. Thank you it's been almost a month now the guy told me to email them after 30 days
