Form I-824 question
Hey guys. It has been 105 days since my EB2 NIW I-140 (consular process) approval and the USCIS did not send my petition to NVC yet. I opened an inquiry to USCIS via Emma chat few days ago and they answered me today saying that I should file the form I-824 to request my process to be transferred to NVC. Have someone experienced something like this? How you solved? The fee for this form is almost $500 and also the processing time is too long! I can’t afford wasting more time or money. Thank you.

Hi My case is same situation as like you. My 824 was approved on Mar/16th but still be on USCIS not transfer to NVC yet. Can you share what $500 fee required?

Gustavo FMay 10, 2022
Actually I haven’t sent the I-824. I’m not sure if it is mandatory or not. As for the fee I mentioned, is to file the I-824 and the exact amount is $465.

Which center? What did you choose for the next step? 485 or consular processing?

Texas. Consular process.

It should be transferred soon. I got EB1A approved on Jan 24, 2022. It got transferred to NVC from TSC 2 days ago.

Hopefully yes! A question: were you requested to file the I-824 too?
N
N NMay 11, 2022
No. I did not file 824.

I chose consular processing while filing I-140.

Gustavo FMay 11, 2022
Me too. Consular process since the beginning. That’s why I can’t understand why they are requesting the I-824.

EB2 might take longer to transfer the case by default. Filing 824 might make it faster I guess.

N NMay 11, 2022
I would suggest you wait for another 2 months before filing 824 if you don’t want to spend additional $500.

Gustavo FMay 11, 2022
Yes. I’ll do that. Thanks for your opinions!👍🏼

T YMay 12, 2022
Hi I filed on 2/10 and got the expedite approval on 3/16th but didn’t get any notice from NVC yet.

N NMay 12, 2022
@TY does it mean your case (824) is approved and uscis transferred the case to NVC ?

Just a feedback on my case. I did not submit the I-824 and just waited. Today it was transferred to NVC with 130 days. Hope this post helps people with the same situation.

Gustavo FJun 8, 2022
@Susana Better inquiry USCIS and check if they request or not. I’m not sure in which situations the 824 is applied.
Blonde 👱‍♀️Jun 8, 2022
y por qué te pidieron el 1-824 ? eres f2A ?
Blonde 👱‍♀️Jun 9, 2022
Gustavo buena, tú llamaste a uscis en algún momento o dejaste todo así por favo explícame qué hace 17 día me pidieron ese documento y no lo he enviado

Gustavo FJun 9, 2022
Distiny, my case is not F2A and I don’t know why they asked the 824. I did not send it because I heard similar cases that the person did not send and it worked. Maybe in your case you need to file the 824 in fact, so my advice is to inquiry USCIS or your attorney to understand if it’s really necessary or not.
Blonde 👱‍♀️Jun 9, 2022
Gustavo thanks, we called uscis and they told us that they would send it to the NvC
Susana MayerJun 9, 2022
