Guys quick questions, 

I had submitted request about couple weeks ago to upgrade my spouse I-130 from F2A category to USC immediate relative and recently got following e-mail. I have faxed my naturalization certificate to the indicated number with cover letter with my information and workstation number as indicated below. 

How long does it take USCIS to upgrade my wife's I-130 to immediate family of USC? 

On February xx, 2017, you contacted USCIS concerning your Form I-130, Petition for Alien Relative, to notify us that you have naturalized and are requesting an upgrade in the status of your petition. Below is a summary of what we found and how the issue has been or may be resolved. 

To update your relative petition to reflect that you are now a U.S. citizen, you will need to submit or fax the  certificate of naturalization to (xxx) xxx-xxxx, workstation xxxx. So your petition will be moved to a new visa category for an immediate relative of a U.S. citizen. This category does not have numerical restrictions, and a visa is immediately available from the U.S. Department of State. 

Hi

I will soon be in the same situation of yours. Could you tell me when you sent the I130 and in which center?

How did you make the change ??

Hey guys! I'm happy to report we were approved!!! :D

 

I still haven't talked to my husband because of the time difference & the fact that he's been traveling all day -- we've just texted. But it went well and they only asked him a few questions.

 

In total it took us 168 days from the NOA1 to get to this point (thanks to my VJ timeline for calculating!)

Thank you to everyone here who has been supportive and helpful when there have been questions, concerns, etc. 

 

PS: I'm not dropping out of the forums... I will still be around... stay strong guys!

My PD is September 1st and my case was transferred from Nebraska to Texas on February 7th. I just noticed that processing PD for Texas now is September 7th. Is there anyone in this position? Should I start calling and harassing them? I can't wait to get my NO2 ....

I am hoping they are ahead of this time frame because it says as of January 31st and I saw some mid August people were approved last week! ? Am I reading that right as of January they were working on August applications right? Ugh so tired of this!

Hello, I have checked my application and now it shows this:

 

On March 6, 2017, we sent your case, Receipt Number XXXXX, to the Department of State for visa processing. Please visit our website for general information on Consular Processing.

 

This means it has been approved and it is on its way to the NVC, right? How long do we have to wait until the NVC sends us the case number?

Some people have said it takes two weeks and that you should call daily to get it.
