ALL Texas I-130 Filers

[Bengoj 133]

October 9 pd. Still waiting. 

[DGF 730]

Now that November approvals are well underway, how many people from October or earlier haven't heard anything yet? I think I'm the only September filer without an NOA2 that is still active on here so there aren't a whole lot of people left for me to talk to and it's getting pretty lonely.

I’m October 9 TSC and still waiting 😩I’m soo frustrated at this point. 270 days and nothing. I was hoping to get an interview by October or November but it’s not looking like it. I’m the US citizen applying for my husband. I’m soo ready to sell what I have and move to his country but the issue of joint sponsor would be over my head so I’m trying to Be patient. I put an inquiry and it says I can’t cause I’m still in processing time.

I am so sorry  I've been following your case and I was hoping you'd have some luck with your inquiries. Have they said if you are in background checks or are they just giving you a generic response?

I was hoping for October/November too and it's been hard to accept that that's just not going to happen. We were out of processing times once upon a time and weren't able to submit an inquiry even then so it's not exactly a well functioning system. I think this time we're just going to do it over the phone, hopefully we can use that to get transferred to tier 2 and actually get some information about our case.

It’s definitely not a good functioning system at all. Next week will be 9 months. It takes at least 4 months from noa2 to interview.  So him being home in October/November is not looking good.  I spoke to a rep but not a tier 2.  I figured the tier 2 would basically say the same thing the representative said (I’m not out of processing time😩 And that they’re working on August 29) which we know is not true but try your luck. I hope you get thru.

Greetings Texans,

 

It looks like I'll be joining the Texas pool. I was bit worried about getting assigned the Nebraska, but when I saw the SRC it was a small relief. When you guys are talking about Noa1, is that the same as getting the receipt #?

I just got an email saying an action had been taken on my case.

 

https://my.uscis.gov/account/applicant -- the account that requires two-factor authentication shows:
"On July 05, 2019, we approved your Form I-130, Petition for Alien Relative, Receipt Number SRCXXXXXXXXXX. We will mail your approval notice. Please follow the instructions in the notice."

 

https://egov.uscis.gov/casestatus -- the account that doesn't require two-factor authentication and where the case can be checked without a login shows no change; the last change showing there being the Date of Birth on the NOA1.

 

I'm guessing they query separate databases and that the latter account will be updated soon and a notification will be received via mail.

 

• 2018-11-07 - Marriage.
• 2018-12-12 - I-130 mailed.
• 2018-12-24 - NOA1 received.
• 2018-12-28 - File to change the Date of Birth for the Petitioner on the NOA1 as it was off by one year.
• 2016-01-15 - Date of Birth changed.
• 2019-07-05 - Approval/NOA2

 

• Service Centre/Center: Texas
• Beneficiaries Country: Scotland/United Kingdom
• Weight of the I-130 packet: 1417g/1.4Kg |3lb, 2oz

Yes noa1 is basically the 'we received your application' letter. What's your Priority Date? Should be on the letter as well

I hope to receive good news soon, Can it take more than a year?

The entire process from filing to having a CR-1 visa in hand averages about a year or a little longer......
