Call USCIS and confirm your service center

@Z. A original… case was mailed to uscis it wasn’t filed online. NOA recieve in the mail was issues from Potomac live agent through Emma says case is at Nebraska that’s why I’m a little confused got it ???

they always tell different stories I called one day I was told potomac and 2nd time vermont service center and I called again 3rd time right after 10 minutes then I was told potomac again I called yesterday to ask its in potomac service center so like I said they tell different stories

I supmited my i130 on December 4th 2019 and still waiting for approval. and today I requested an expedite so will see .

ZA any insight on why some cases activley review for months why others just a day or week. Many March and April 2021 applications are getting approved just like that

@Z. A. Original, what do you mean of visa verification?

thank you. so should we go by the USCIS processing times when it’s in the “activley reviewed” stage? I am always trying to understand the difference between “received” and activley reviewed. does it mean progress is being made at activley reviewed stage

thanks 🙏 for all these priceless information

thank you so much ZA. your time and info is very appreciated. it’s a very unpredictable process so it’s nice to get some insight

@ZA Original, mine went from received to actively reviewed in only 3 days after filing. Is that common? Random?

@ john adi. what was the reason you gave for expedite. I am also on same boat. submitted i130 on December 2019 but not approved yet.

@faheem Mohamed, my wife fallen sick in overseas and she need my attention , and I got all the evidence from the labs test and doctors reports . I have done this 2 months ago and they just sent me an email saying: you are in the line to be reviewed, please wait ... etc . they didn’t even say it’s approved or denied or even ask for any evidence. so frustrating situation and I have called the Uscis too many times and nothing changned.

@ John adi : well sorry for your wife sickness. I appreciate your affords towards her. Hopefully your expedite approved this time. please do let’s us update about your expedite after

I will do .

thanks Z. A. Original. it’s really tough situation I feel helpless . it’s just so unfair to go through all this when it can be done in few months . distance it’s really hard and even start to effect our relationship I’m running out of time .

@Z. A. thanks for the info. The petition we filed is an i130 spouse visa. I'm a USC petitioning for my wife. We did include the list of contents on the front and I think it was pretty thoroughly submitted. Hopefully!

I’m happy my post have been helpful thanks to @Z.A.Original for educating us though I hired an attorney to file my petition and everything for me I still do lots of research and I discover new ideas everyday. my petition is i130 for my husband who is not a usc and outside in a foreign country as well I am a usc tho. my petition was filed and mailed from MN to uscis in Lewisville,TX, received in Nov. 2020 and actively reviewed since Jan. 2021. I’m still waiting hopefully to get approved soon… God luck to us all 🙏🙏🙏🙏

@ZA Original, sorry I didn't see the part about concurrent filing. We are doing a standalone i130. Wife is currently still in her home country. I am in the US working to re-establish domicile as I lived with her overseas for 6 years prior to filing.
