the petition has been approved. the petition indicates that the person for whom you are petitioning is in the united states and will apply for adjustment status. he or she should contact the local uscis office to obtain I-485, application for PR.
if the person for whom you are petitioning decides to apply for a visa outside the united states based on this petition, the petitioner should file I-824, application for action on an approved application or petition, to request that we send the petition to the department of state national visa center..
the nvc processes all approved immigrant visa petitions that require consular action. the nvc also determines which consular post is the appropriate consulate to complete visa processing. it will then forward the approved petition to that consulate.
It's not a good idea to post your personal contact number here. This is a public forum.
Tell your petitioner to contact USCIS to clear things up.
If that's what in the letter, you should chase this down with USCIS , an ISO, and tell them that the casefile should be re-routed to NVC and NOT the NRC.
That's it, really. Should take some time, also.
Don't have resolution on it? Get Congressional inquiry started.
what is NRC and ISO Means?
ISO - Immigration Service Officer, a 2nd line support staff member at the USCIS National Call Center.
most likely (like me) you left Q22 blank in the I-130.
is possible is data error with the office that approved it, but you won't know till you make a phone call or visit the local office.
do they have phne numbers directly to tier 2 call center... coz in the voicemail like when u press the for approve press 2 like that... the voice mail said enter the receipt number how can u enter the MSC there no way u can enter that.. ?
call when uscis is open - 8 am till 6 PM, cst. m-f.
thanks again darnell... how long do u think it will take this to re route to nvc? does ur case done already?
anywhere from 2 to 60 days, depending on where the casefile is and how recent that approval notice is.
otoh, it may be a non-issue, and just a data error with how the local office finished up the approval clicky bits in the computer.
hard to say, until that first phone call. if gets really messy, get congressional liason human to step in.
