All Nebraska I-130 Filers -- Part 5

[Meryemabbasi 17]

Alhamdulilah Praise be to God my I 130 was approved yesterday

I 130 NOA 1  12/7/2018

I 129 F NOA1 8/7/2019

I130 NOA2 9/20/2019 No email update,  just checked online yesterday on https://egov.uscis.gov and then also saw update on cases tracker.         mygov is not updated. no mail letter yet. 

 

I 129 F Denied 9/20/2019, was updated a little later at night on egov and case tracker. 

 

Best wishes to everyone. Thanks for all the support from this forum!

BTW I did call USCIS last week for an update but the person was a tier 1 so I did not get much help. Later on 9/17/19 just a few days before my I 130 was approved I got a satisfaction survey call from USCIS on an anonymous number  from a really nice lady who said not to give up hope and be positive and she gave me tips on how to reach a tier 2 immigration office on the phone line.  Has anyone else gotten such calls ?

Congrats! I have called USCIS many times but I've never gotten such a call before. What do you mean by anonymous number?

Mine took 4 week after they received it. I think that it pretty standard for last month or so.

from what i have seen here it takes around a month after your case is received, and around 2 months after your I-130 approval. So i think we should get a case number in around two weeks

I got RFE for 1 Passport Size photo. I am 1000% sure I included that in my petition. They have surely lost it and now I have to send it again. 

In RFe there is an envelop from USCIS and its instructed that I have to put my RFE response inside that USCIS envelope but I actually wanted to send it through USPS priority mail instead of USCIS regular mail. Will it be any issue if I do that?

How long will it take to adjudicate my application?

Thank you in advance..

I’m so glad to see the K3’s still working.. congrats to all the recent approvals.😊😊

[Rosie91 93]

Quick question, I see a lot of people request the K3 (almost everyone). Did one of you applied for that one with your spouse living with you in your country? I see that so many people got denied, why do they get denied? I want to file for it too, but my husband lives with me i don't want to risk our current ongoing i-130, but the time line is getting worse everyday.

 

let me know!

K3 denial is the objective.

It's working for those that live together abroad too from what I've seen here.

K3 is basically to eliminate the physical distance between a husband and wife while they wait for their immigration process to complete. Its a visa on which your spouse ( currently lving abroad) can come to the US and live with you while you wait for your spouse visa to approve. If your spouse in already living with you in the US then that nullifies k3 visa (i guess).

The K3 gets denied because they are working on administratively closing the K3, so they instead approve the I130 petition for CR1/IR1 so that the I129f can be denied. Not sure if it works for those living together abroad but I certainly don’t see any harm in trying
