Mailbox via US Postal mail for the "informed delivery". This would be done by the US  fiance.

There is a service provided by the USPS (US Postal Service) whereby each morning USPS will scan your incoming mail (just the address side of the envelope) and email you an update. It's very convenient these days to have advance notice that an important piece of mail is being delivered.

 

The service is available to most communities but some are still being rolling out so not all areas are available. Check the website with your zip code to verify your location is available for the service. A person in the USA can sign up for this free service here: https://informeddelivery.usps.com/box/pages/intro/start.action

Will USCIS text or email you immediately after approval of application?

Yes sometimes by email. But, they will send you by snail mail a hard copy of your NOA2. You can check your status by following these recommendations.

 

Check your case status online with your receipt number. You can also sign up to receive automatic case status updates by email.

If you do not receive a decision on your case within the published processing time for the new service center, you may submit an inquiry online or call the USCIS Contact Center at 800-375-5283. For people who are deaf, hard of hearing or have a speech disability: TTY 800-767-1833. When asking about your case status, please provide us with your receipt number and specify that your case was transferred to a new location.

If we send you any notice (such as a Request for Evidence), please read the notice carefully and follow the instructions provided.

If you move while your case is pending, you must inform USCIS of your address change. You may file a change of address on our website or by calling the USCIS Contact Center. It is important that you notify us of any address change as soon as possible, so that you continue to receive notifications from USCIS.

Hello March filers, I'm a February filer here but I wanted to jump on and share this with you. A crazy thing happened to me this morning - I woke up to an email & text that action had been taken on my case and to check the website. Except...I received my NOA2 almost a month ago and it was updated on the new website only at that time. So for curiosity's sake, I logged into the old website & found that it had been updated as well with my NOA2 approval. So now both the old & the new websites are updated with my approval. Nothing else has changed. So it may be time to start the scans again!!!

 

Oh wow! Do you know where I can find the link to the new website?

After you get your case number from NVC it would be a good idea if you were to connect with the VJ sub forum for all things dealing with the US Embassy in Colombia and they will answer your questions for the processing of your visa from their personal experience. Link:

 

http://www.visajourney.com/forums/forum/96-mexico-latin-south-america/

 

Get the US Embassy Colombian K-1 Packet 3 (P3) at  https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B7hB3bl9Snfkb0NiMVFUd2JsVjA/view  as this is your bible needed to complete and receive your visa. The required documents are included and use the EL as a check list. Once you have completed or gathered the required documents you'll be ready for your interview. If it is not on the Embassy letter, it probably is not needed.

 

Last but not least, READ the pages on the US Embassy website for your country so that you are up to speed.

One last place to check for information would be the VJ Wiki found here: http://www.visajourney.com/wiki/index.php/Special:AllPages and here http://www.visajourney.com/consulates/index.php?ctry=Colombia&cty=Bogota

 

Good luck and God's speed.

Many of our answers are predicated on the information you supply in your profile. When we look at the left column and can't determine your timeline or your Embassy it's hard for us to give you a factual answer. If you look at the profile of others here, they have a flag for their country, so it makes it easy for us to reply as we can quickly determine your Embassy. Our answers will sometimes be tailored to a specific Embassy hence the reason for you to complete your profile.

 

So, if you could help yourself out and complete your profile that sure would help us out when we want to reply to your question with factual information.

 

Go to the top right of this page select your name (it's on the upper right hand corner)>my profile>[below your picture on the right column] edit my profile. Scroll to the bottom and fill in "Immigration Info". There now we can better serve you.

 

Thanks

Thank you!! Very helpful

I received this today. I know it doesn’t mean much and that it’s just an update for us, but can someone PLEASE just tell me that the NOA2 comes a few days later??????? I login to my account twice a day so I don’t know why I got it (I’m just wishful thinking right now haha)...

 

We are still reviewing your case and there are no updates at this time

We will notify you when your case status changes. We last took action on your case on August 31, 2018.

What did they do on August 31st with your NOA1 being late this month? I've seen this referenced a few times in this thread. I think the general consensus is that it's just some kind of automated generic notice and doesn't mean much at all as far as where USCIS is at in the process of your case. Some think it's from the new site when you have "case inactivity notifications" on but I have it enabled and have never received that email. Maybe they only send it after they do something after the NOA1.
