Hey you guys,

I am from the Feb filers thread :) just wanted to wish you guys all the best!

The process is quick at the beginning and slows down gradually so at every stage keep in mind that its all good and the processing times are long sometimes :)

Let us know if yall have any questions...

***I will try calling USCIS in the morning. I don't know what else I can do. Any ideas how to approach this or get information??
Thanks!

Hey!

Step one to this entire USCIS process is NOT to freak out :)

Trust me I have been there & done that and it gets us nowhere.

Check out the February filers timelines, that will give you a nice understanding of the prospective timelines and waiting periods you may be looking forward to.

We share a lot of USCIS updates too, like cases from the TSC (Texas Service Center) being transferred to CSC (California Service Center) due to high volumes etc.

Some of us get the NOA's quickly, some of us have waited weeks.

Also, updating your ASC (Application Service Center) and DO (District office) locations will assist you in gauging processing times.

All the best!

Noella, Thank you. I needed that! :) :)

Can you clarify what you mean by "updating your ASC and DO," do you mean looking at their processing timeline tables? OR contacting them "Hi, my name is.... I am filing to sponsor my husband and convert his visa, forms xxxx, at Chicago lockbox. Can you confirm with his I-94 number that the forms are at your location?"

Hey!

First, you are always welcome.

Its nice to be able to help people in situations that I have already been in and trust me I do not blame you for freaking out ;)

When I said update your ASC/Do I meant add that in you signature with your timeline (progress you have made so far).

Then you can come on to the Feb filers thread and see if there is anyone from your state/DO or ASC and gauge what timeline you are looking at in terms of receiving your NOA's and other documents.

All the best and do not hesitate to contact any of us for any further questions you may have :)
 
Concerned about traveling

Hi everyone,

I am so happy I found this forum to share experience with USCIS.
I sent the papers on March 3, they received it on March 6.
I am applying for I-485 I-130 I-765 and I-131
The most important for me at the moment is I131 since I my husband and I want to attend a wedding in the beginning of June in my home country.
I am on F1 right now with expired at the moment I-20 :(
We really want to buy tickets since the price is still reasonable but I am scared that I will not receive my I-131 AP in time.
Any suggestions in this matter?
I will be very grateful for any help.
P.S I spend over 2 hours on February posts and didn't find any case like mine :(
Thanks once again for any advice.

Hey!

When I said update your ASC/Do I meant add that in you signature with your timeline (progress you have made so far).

How do we find our ASC and DO? is that assigned to us by USCIS or is it something we selected in the application? Mainly I am wondering about the ASC.

Thanks

Hey,

I wish I could provide a better answer, but Iall I can say is that I also applied for a 131 for my wife. We have a wedding celebration planned with her family in England in August. I know the 131 approval's are suppose to come through within 90 days so you may just need to wait until that time has passed before you can do anything. The only other thing I could suggest is to schedule and info appointment.
