June 14 filed and AR same day. Texas service center and was transferred to California service center. Filed K3 PD: July 8 and also in California service center. Patiently waiting…

 

I’ve seen a quite few approvals this week for IR1/CR1 on Facebook.  I even saw one for June, but not a single one from CSC ☹️

California and Potomac seem to be the slower ones from what I've seen.

I agree with you. I’m also saddened by it. It would be nice if they would get their ####### together and find a better system to process these petitions in a fair and orderly fashion.

Filers of I-130 from June, 2021 are still waiting.

I-130 APPROVED!!!

 

PD: 6/2/22

K3: 6/21/22

I-130 APPROVAL: 11/12/22

Texas Service Center

 

So far, the only approval notice we've received is for my husband. There are also 3 pending I-130s (submitted at the same time as my husband's) for my stepdaughters. I'm hoping because they were submitted together that their approvals won't be far behind - does anyone with experience petitioning multiple family member have any input on that?

 

The status on the USCIS website still says "actively reviewing," but I checked the documents tab, and there was the approval letter! I got two emails on early Sunday morning that said, "we have taken action on your case," and that's what prompted me to look. The approval letter just showed up under documents today.

I wanted to follow up on this. As of today (11/15/22), all four petitions I submitted for my husband and three stepdaughters have been approved!

I still have the i-130 for my stepdaughter "actively review your case".  Spouse i-130 was in Vermont, stepdaughter i-130 is at Texas SC. I tired to ask them to expedite it but was told, a big fat no.  I can't process NVC until Texas approves daughters i-130.

Where all of the i-130 at the same service center?

How long has it been since your spouse's I-130 was approved?

No, actually 3 different ones - in order of when we saw their approval notices show up:

 

1) Spouse - Texas Service Center (date says 11/12/22, we saw the letter online on 11/14/22)

2) Stepdaughter #1 - Vermont Service Center (date also 11/12/22, showed up later in the day on 11/14/22)

3) Stepdaughter #2 - Texas Service Center (11/15/22 - same time as stepdaughter #3)

4) Stepdaughter #3 - Potomac Service Center (11/15/22 - same time as stepdaughter #2)

 

They were all originally at the Nebraska Service Center.

My spouse was approved on 9 Nov Vermont. Texas has daughters i-130. Did you contact them?

Nope. If more time had passed, I would have though. It did take a few days for the status to change from "actively reviewing" to "approved," and I only found out about the approval by going to the documents tab (which I'm sure you've tried).

 

Did USCIS give you any other insight other than "sorry, just wait"?

[hiram a 11]

They did not say anything except

 no expedite. If no approval this week, gonna call and speak with tier two agent.

Best of luck! I know it's grueling.

[hiram a 11]

Still no approval for daughters i130. How long should I wait?
