Yes, i used the e-notification (G-1145) form with my case. That alerted me of each action/scans.

P:S: I'm still unable to track my YSC# for both cases though since NOA1 on 09/01/2016!

Should i be worried?

The question was for efquake, not you. I mentioned your example as you received the notification the very next day, but he hasn't. Perhaps because he did not sign up for the e-notification and would received the hard copy in the mail.

I wouldn't be worry about tracking. I heard it can take a few weeks for the online tracking to work.

Chicago and Phoenix are not service centers they are lockboxes. The packages are sent to lockboxes and then distributed to the sevice centers.

Texas is a service center.

Thank you for the clarification. Will update the list to reflect this.

I received my NOA1 in mail on 9/16.

On separate note: I had submitted extra wedding (07/2016) pictures and video on USB & engagement pictures on CD (03/2015). They came back in mail from Chicago saying we cannot place in your folder for review in this format. I didn't know USB Drive/CD are not acceptable.

NOA1 came from CSC and return items (CD/USB) came from Chicago.

Question: Anyone knows current processing time for spouse visa at NVC if petitioner is LPR?

Unfortunately the US Govt does not accept any digital formats of Bona Fide relationship. I guess it is a cyber security risk, as well as the need to be able to support all digital forms. (Not to mention the fact that govts are always 20 years behind the curve.

Right now its about two years for your priority date to become available. For your F2A category they are prosseing priority date November 15 2014. Things can change when you get to the NVC stage. Right now its a retrogression. It has been on that priority date for months now.

Here is the visa bulletin: https://travel.state.gov/content/visas/en/law-and-policy/bulletin/2016/visa-bulletin-for-september-2016.html

Hi all!

I just sent off my front-loaded I-130 package today :D It's going USPS Express, so it should arrive tomorrow. Fingers crossed. Anyone else feeling overwhelmingly nervous? My biggest concern -- I submitted a lot of conversations between myself and my husband. They're in a mixture of French, English, and Wolof. I know foreign language documents should be translated, but since this is more proof of a continuing relationship and not a document, per se, I didn't have them translated and instead wrote a summary of each conversation. (Also, I am a poor graduate student. The cheapest translation I've found is $35 per page... adds up fast. I didn't take enough student loans out for that!)

Fingers crossed :( Good luck to everyone!

06/03/2016 -- Married in Dakar, Senegal
09/20/2016 -- I-130 package sent via USPS Express to Chicago

09/21/2016 -- USPS delivery confirmation

09/23/2016 -- Email/text notification for I-130 acceptance; sent to Potomac

Also -- apologies for back-to-back posting, but I haven't quite figured out how to edit posts.

Is there any rhyme or reason to which processing center petitions get sent to? Is it on a regional basis, haphazard, something else? Thanks!

I think you should be fine. Some of my texts to Alex are in Danish, but I think its more to prove that you can actually communicate vs what you are saying. (unless its about something illegal)
