US Immigration from Finland

Hi,

We are waiting for our I-130 petition to be approved, receipt notice dated March 5th 2025.

Would it make sense to already start gathering needed documents/getting ready somehow for the next step?

Many thanks for your help!

Hello,

I booked my interview, and i couldn't get medical check up earlier than 11 days before the interview. They told it will take 2 weeks to get my results and told they won't be able to get on me in time. Can i go to my interview without them and send them later or do you recommend to re-schedule.

My interview is in Stockholm Sweden. (It was hard to get the interview date since there was 3 options and latest was the one i booked, nothing else was available. And i couldn't book my medical before i had my interview booked.)

Thank you in advance!

Hi, we submitted our I-130 petition in March this year. As we didn't submit the petition online, we dnt have an online account.

Do we receive a letter in mail when our petition is approved? I believe it's not possible to link our petition to an online account as we filed the paper version instead of submitting it online

Also, another question. Our receipt notice said at the bottom "Potomac Service Center " but just below that the address of the Texas Service center....does that mean anything?

Many thanks for your help

Hi,

Me and my USC husband have filed a petition for spouse visa I-130. My last name on the petition was my maiden name. Now my last name has been officially registered in my home country, Finland. Do I need to noticy USCIS about the name change or just wait til the process moves onward & fill in the nxt papers with my new last name?

Also our receipt number starts with IOE. At the bottom of the receipt notice it has "Potomac Service Center " but below the address of the Texas Service center. Which one is? Does it even matter?

Thank you in advance

Hi, how long have you been waiting to receive l 797c in mail after receiving the electronic notification (txt msg) ?

We've been waiting abt a month now. Got the txt msg 03/11 and it said the official receipt notice will follow in mail.

I have emailed the lockbox support but no reply yet. Just wondering if others waiting this long at the moment.

Thank you!
