CSC I-130 - time to check-cashed & NOA1

 Share

Recommended Posts

Sent I-130 4/28 USPS delivery confirmation. Delivery confirmed 4/30 8am, to date no NOA1 and check not cashed.

Not so worried about NOA1 as by all accounts CSC is real late sending them, if at all. But my bank is very quick to record checking activity and so I'm wondering what folks think the normal amount of time for CSC to cash a check is these days? Seems from timelines they were doing this quite quickly.

You will get NOA-1 within a week or two, hopefully.

I'm glad this questioned was asked b/c I was also curious. It's been 3 weeks now and no NOA1 and my check has not been cashed.

Answering my own post in hindsight. Back then ... May 2007, CSC was backlogged (and had systems problems which I also posted about). Long story short, when new stuff came in it was assigned a "priority date" based on arrival. Then it sat in a room for a month until they got around to looking at it to send the check to the bank. The petition was ultimately processed based on this "priority date" within expected timeframes at that time.
