January 2023 I-130 filers

[RekYan 7]

I-130 for wife and two sons approve 11 months. Jan 5 to Dec 4.

Just got our approval! Logged in, saw a new "Actively Reviewed", and the approval notice was under "Documents".

Hilariously the estimated time, which had been "taking longer than expected" since the summer, went back up to 4 months on the same day it was approved.

 

Didn't get any email about it, so definitely keep checking  

Sent 1/6/23, Approval 12/7/23. Texas service center. No K3 or expedite.

Hang on friends, the next step is within reach!

We got ours too! Looks like it was approved on Dec 8th, but no email, so we had to login and check the documents tab. Congrats everyone!!

You guys filed about a week later than us, so hopefully your approval is imminent!

We filed our paper Jan 20 2022. Looks like they are processing the December 2022 I-130 right now.

AHH got our approval today!

 

• PD: Jan 17, 2023
• Approval: Dec 14, 2023

 

Almost 11 months exactly, which was our very original estimate when we submitted! No email, just logged in and saw the "actively reviewing" date was updated to today. The myProgress tab still says "taking longer than expected" but approval was in the Documents section. 😄

@AK65 I’m rooting for you, been following y’all’s timeline since I filed I-130 for my husband in August and it is so fulfilling to see the approvals after the long wait and worrying . Praying each of you ends the year with an approval.
