Congrats! I have the same problem with "wrong side-up" document. I thought that only me who had this issue. I have submitted passport again but still no news yet. It's been almost 5 weeks now. 

@msmarie0, did you get interview scheduled yet? I am curious.

Hi!!! If I were you I would call the NVC and ask for an update. It’s super hard to get through because the voicemail always picks up and says “due to high call volume” .. but just hang up and keep trying, eventually it will let you in. When I finally spoke to someone she told me that they had my documents but someone did not mark them properly to be reviewed again which is whAt took so long. As soon as she fixed it they updated to “accepted” the next day. 

We have not gotten an interview date yet but I think I may try and call them tomorrow to bug them some more lol 

GOOD LUCK!

Hi congrats on the confirmed interview date, my wife and I are also filing for step children from Ja, what documents did NVC require from you guys, any help would be appreciated. Also how long did it take for USCIS to approve the I-130?

My application with Uscis went a lot longer than it should have bc they processed the application as if I was filing for my husband (who was already a permanent resident) instead of for my step daughter. I filed July 2016 It was a 1 & 1/2 year battle because even after fighting to have it fixed they denied the application and I had to file an appeal and they finally fixed and approved it Feb 2018.   Then it was stuck in processing for Uscis and sat in their office for a year until I contacted my senator in January 2019 who got it pushed along for me. It was finally received by NVC on June 4, 2019. I paid all fees by June 6th.  

I had to supply tax transcript for 2018 along with the affidavit of support. For my step daughter I submitted her passport photo. Birth cert. and her passport biographic page (the part of her passport with the number and photo) make sure when submitting all of your documents they are right side up. (Where the reviewer can read the docs from left to right without tilting their head) because the passport photo was submitted the incorrect way it took an extra 5 weeks to process even tho every other document submitted was accepted.
