Hi all,

I was wondering - what documents are sent in the packet to the "beneficiary" after an I-130 is approved, and how long does it normally take to receive anything? I know there's a DS-230 and a DS-2001, but what else is there?

Also, does the "petitioner" (i.e. US Citizen spouse) get any more documents that they need to fill out and send?

Thanks!

Emmy can you add what kind of visa you are applying for and also where you are applying. These are things that people need to know before commenting.

Thanks

Believe she said I-130 which would be Residency

Hi,

Um, yea - I gave all the required info... I-130 is only used for immigrant-visas, and since this is a marriage-based forum (and I mentioned spouse)...

Thanks

Okay, I've added a signature now - hopefully will reduce any confusion

Thanks!

But what's the answer? I have an approved I-130 and apart from the NOA I received nothing.

Hiya,

How long have you been waiting?

Thanks!

My timeline is in my profile but I think my NOA was sent to me in June or July of last year. My NOA was a little different in that mine said that they knew I was in the states and would not be doing consular filing.

I haven't really been waiting except for waiting for myself and hubby to get our fingers out and AOS. Just started filling in the forms now. Probably get them off next week.
