I Do not know what is next..
 
@ Chicago777, it depends. Mine after having my fp done, i got the interview letter and then the approval of my document to travel and also authorization to work. But there are few cases here that they got their EAD and AP first and they are still waiting for their IL. It seems that the DO in Chicago works pretty fast. At least mine did.:)

Good luck!
 
@ all

I just recieved my GC in the mail and the card is actually green:) It's really a good feeling to be done with this atleast for now. Thank God Almighty!

For those ( Noella, shely etc.) who are still expecting their IL and updates. It will surely come and when it do come, it will be a success at the end!

@ thomkip

Go and check mail box buddy if you havent today. It should be there waiting for you

Just keep up the faith and hope buddy. Yous spouse will be green and will come over to join you. Since you are only filing the I-130 alone, your case will probably take longer than the concurrent filing(when both spouse and petitioner are already here in the US). It will take about 3-4 months for the I-130 to be approved then it will be forwarded to NVC. NVC will then contact your spouse who is overseas and she will go for an interview at a consulate. The whole process will probably take 6-9 months.
 
Hi Immiresearch,
I haven't been online in a while, but just saw your post.
Actually I just went on to check the USCIS website because I haven't heard anything about my application. I filed the I-130 as my husband currently lives in Belgium.
When I went online - my status still says Initial Review. I know he shouldn't have an interview here or anything, but is it strange that we didn't hear anything? Should I call the number? Online it says last updated 2/18/2011. I don't know if that's the last time I actually logged in or they haven't touched our application since then..?! maybe it is lost? I'm pretty worried now...

anyone with advice...its greatly appreciated.
thanks,

Hey, good to hear from you. Some of the people that we started the whole process with have gone quiet. Relax, your spouse will go green. The answer to your question is in the post prior to yours.

Hi everyone. Sorry for taking so long to update my signature. Yesterday we had an extremely busy day. I graduated in the morning and we had a party to celebrate my graduation, my husband's birthday, and our interview with the Immigration. I got home around 3 pm and my husband got the mail and told me we got two envelops from the DHS should we open? I told him, are you kidding me? Give me that hehehehehe so as soon as I opened the letter, we got another HUGE reason to celebrate that afternoon. "Welcome to the United States of America" oh yes hehehehe :) Our case was approved and we couldn't be happier. :)

Thank you ALL for the good wishes and good vibes you sent my way. I truly appreciate it! Now I will wait for the so famous green card ;)

Happy Mother's Day to all the mom's out there. Hope you guys had a wonderful day.

Best.

I dont know anyone from Virginia DO but it seems like it takes forever to receive the IL. I was looking at the processing times and it seems like Virginia and Atlanta are even busier than NYC. You can look at this link and see how much cases they received and processed. Compare that to my DO that received 39 and processed 39 in the same time frame. You have to scroll to the bottom, dont look at the national volume chart. You can actually also check other DO and other forrms. This is a cool chart.

Congratulations Shely! With your interview experience yours looked like a done deal. I am happy that you received your approval. Hope you guys partied hard :D
 
@immiresearch

Congratulations buddy! So a few of us are done with this first stage. Hopefully we all will meet together again here when it's the time for us to file our I-751 and subsequently N-400. Come to think of it, we will be paying hefty fees to the USCIS every single year :)
 
Received GC

HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOORAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

I Just received the GC in the mail :):). I am dancing in my pants right now. Its a great feeling and thanks to God for this moment and everything. I am glad this is over for the next 2 years. I am so happy and can focus now on achieving the American dream. Please let us not forget to file I-751 90 days before the card expires.

Thanks to all of you guys in this thread and the whole forum and thanks to immiresearch for starting this thread.

Shely- Congrats, you should get the GC sometime next week

All- If you are still waiting on IL, hang in there. I know its very tough to wait but you all will be greened before the end of summer.
