I wasn’t aware they had instructions until recently. As I said- hindsight is 20/20. We’ll just hope for a speedy resolution. 

The instructions are downloaded the same place you download the form.  It's the adjacent link.  Note also, that the I-130 is used for not only visas, and not only spouses.  It's for any qualifying relative.  This is a do it yourself site.  The "doing" includes the homework also done by "self".

Yes, unfortunately mistakes result in additional fees and wait.

Many have made this same mistake, by failing to become A-Students of the form instructions and the form itself.  Yes, the consequences of this particular mistake are severe.  But, you now have plenty

Being kind here, but  you are asking the wrong question.  What you want to know is in the instructions, but also clear from the context.  If "you" the US Citizen are filing this form as the petitioner

We have uploaded the form I-824 on the USCIS website this morning and we just got a notification it switched from "Actively Reviewed" (from yesterday) to "Case approved" and it also indicates "Case Closed" on it.
 

Does it mean they forwarded the petition to the NVC? 
 

 

(FYI: We have also mailed the form  but that will only get delivered next week)

You can not file the I 824 on line.

Unfortunately I doubt it. Our case was approved on the 27th but didn’t change status to approved until the 30th. I imagine your delay was the same.
 

The I-824 will only start processing when they receive the form at the relevant service centre it’s forwarded to (pray for California)!

It would have been too good to be true lol I will pray hard! Our K1 (years ago) and I-130 have both been processed in Cali, hopefully it continues

Begs the question how you file on line something not set up to do so.

That’s great news!! Did they just receive it or did they already process it? 
 

No news on our side still waiting for the process

Just the receipt! Estimate for California is 5.5 months at the moment but we’re going to try to expedite it if we can. Best of luck!

Best of luck! Do you have conditions to push for the expedite?
