My attorney just sent our CR-1 package yesterday and it should arrive on Monday. We're so excited and nervous at the same time!

Did anyone else send theirs in this month?

^ Thank you :) We sent the I-130 package to my mother-in-law in the U.S (we are filing from abroad) and she express mailed it on May 10th to Chicago Lockbox.

The case has been routed to NBC for processing.

Hope you get your NOA1 soon as well!

IR1 took 520 days....

We checked our case status from USCIS website just to see if it was there and it was :) Seems that it was received May 13th and is now in initial review.

I was just wondering if you guys knew if all the CR/IR1 cases go to NBC? For some reason I thought our case would go to CSC based on where we plan on moving.

We are on the IR1 path and filing from abroad so I'm curious if our case goes to a local office or what happens.

IR1 took 520 days....
