OK! I finally have an update. . . i called the USCIS and I got a guy that told me that he can not even check anything for me unless it was 45 days after. . . .

So, i called back and told them that i sent it in 45 days ago. I fianlly got someone and they tracked my I-130 and gave me my WAC number that has been cleared on the 16th of may! if I could have talked to someone earlier 2 weeks ago, I would have gotten my number. . . I don't understand why they can't just look it up for us.

She told me to expect the confirmation in my mail in 2 weeks. . . do they understand that every day matters to us?

So, bottom line, I finally got my number and I am sending in my I-129F today. Gees. But good news!

Thanks

wow... this just sucks... It looks like it will take you 2 months to get the actual NOA1. Are yo usure you do not need a copy of it to send along with the I-129F? You just referenced the WAC in the cover letter? has this been successfully done before?
