I-130 approved but not forwarded to NVC

[Almoto 0]

Our I-130 & I-129F were approved on the same day, Oct.12th however, only the I-129F was forwarded to the NVC. The I-130 NOA2 stated that my husband was in the US and was going to adjust status...not true, he's in England. What would have given them that idea? Are they just too busy and not paying attention or do they want more money from me having to now file an I-824? My attorney sent them a letter asking for them to foward the approval to NVC because of their error without us filing the I-824. He told them that our I-130 clearly stated where he was living.

Has anyone else experienced this mistake?

I'm very upset with this delay especially since it took them 6 1/2 months to appove the I-130.

here is the thing, once u file i-130 and later file i-129f for k3 or u file it together uscis automatically believe that u re going through k3 route, once the both petition re approve together they hold the i-130 and forward the i-129f to nvc for k3, even when i-130 is approved first they hold it for i-129f to be approved somtimes and sent it to nvc. then the i-130 will be held at uscis for ur spouse to come to states to AOS, then if u later want to go for i-130 u have to file i-824, which take several month to be approved, then ur i-130 will go on, am sure ur spouse will have been states by then doing AOS, i would have adviced u to just stick by ur i-129 and go for k3.

You are talking about 1 month.

You need to understand this is a long slow process for the k-3 or I130.

They will move forward on it. Just hang in there and have faith.

hi,

USCIS in their advisory have clearly stated they have got double cases this year from 1.2 million to 2.5 million. thats why they are expereincing systematic delays because they dont have the personnel to do processing work. Hang in their they will do all the stuff.Tell your lawyer to be in touch, and you be in touch with NVC through the live operator.

God bless

Well, I called the NVC today to check on the status of my approved I-129F and they said info. was forwarded to London on Nov. 7th...ok that's good.

I then asked if they had anything on my approved I-130 and of course they did not, she told me to check again with USCIS. So, I gave them a call and after explaining several times that the USCIS office made a mistake on my I-130 NOA, I was forwarded to another customer service person who listened to my story and said that if my petition clearly stated that my husband is not living in the US then it was their error and they would agree to forward it to the NVC without me having to file an I-824 and pay over $300. But it will take several more weeks for them to resolve it...no kidding we all know nothing moves fast with the government.

I'm releaved that it won't cost me additional money to file the I-824 to correct their error. That was a big issue for me, it wasn't my mistake so why should I pay to file more paperwork. I'll be on this like a hawk, calling back in a few more weeks if I don't hear anything from them.
