i got i130 approval notice in mail (hard copy ) on Oct 5 2017 . It had approval date of Oct 2 2017. filed Jan 20 2017.

 

 Just got this email of approval and also it shows online in website now.

 

On October 12, 2017, we sent your case, Receipt Number LIN1************,  to the Department of State for visa processing. You can check the status of your case at the National Visa Center after six weeks from the above date by visiting www.nvc.state.gov. You can find general information on Consular Processing by visiting our website at www.uscis.gov . The website will provide information on what to do next, who to contact, and how to inform us of any changes in your situation or address. 

For approved applications/petitions, post-decision activity may include USCIS sending notification of the approved application/petition to the National Visa Center or the Department of State. For denied applications/petitions, post-decision activity may include the processing of an appeal and/or motions to reopen or reconsider and revocations. 
 

• Log-in to your myUSCIS account to view your case history and understand what you can expect to happen next on your case.
• Current processing times can be found on the USCIS website at under Check Processing Times.

Sincerely,

The U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS)

I am happy to announce that I just received an email from USCIS-CaseStatus@uscis.dhs.gov and a text (SMS) on my cell for my I-130 petition for USC spouse that there has been recent processing action on my case and that my case status is now "Post Decision Activity"

 

I immediately login into my 'Check USCIS Case Status' on USCIS official website and behold, my case has been APPROVED and the status is "Case Was Sent To The Department of State". The the page also states Next Steps - "We will mail our decision to you. The notice will explain any action you need to take"

 

See my journey stats in my signature below, I have not received any mail with the notice yet. the two apps I've been using to track cases also have the same status as above.

 

From the Case Tracker App (iOS), I am tracking most Nebraska Jan 17 to 24 cases and there are quite a lot of cases with same status as mine (like really a lot) updated today - Oct 12. So everyone in January still waiting for approval, this means there is a lot of movement and you will be next for approval soon. 

 

I am really glad I am through with this phase and onto the next phase. I wish you all faster approvals and I will see you soon on NVC phase.

We got our "case complete" email about a week or so after our status changed on the ceac site. It isn't very useful, it just states that they have processed your case and it will be forwarded on to the relevant embassy etc. 

Called NVC and Interview has been scheduled for Mid Nov......will receive the interview appointment in a week via email.

How long did it take them to review your paperwork after they received the things on the check list???

I am at that stage, submitted paperwork on sept 18 and waiting on approval and an interview date

Just an update:

 

My wife got home from work this evening and found in the mail the letter from USCIS - I-797 | Notice of Action with Notice Date - Oct 5, 2017 (NOA2).

 

So I have updated my timeline and again I wish all my fellow VJ members waiting for NOA2 a very fast soon come approvals in the next few days.

I am so overjoyed that more and more January filers at Nebraska are finally moving along.  Thanks be to God for prayers are being answered.  I hope they continue on this pace; before we know it they will be at the same pace as other service centers.

 

CONGRATULATIONS to all approved in this week.

 

I know there will be more approvals.

 

To those waiting from August 2016, I am constantly praying for other who are still stuck at Nebraska and will continue to do so because I want all of us to be rid of Slowbraska soon an very soon.  We will never give up, never. Hear us roar Slowbraska NEVER GIVE UP.
