I -130 Family Based Green Card

hi
I applied for my brother I-130 about two years back except receipt of application there is no activity as of today.
I know it takes years to process the whole thing.
Some one in the similar dates or if some one has gone through the same process please post your experiences.
Thanks in advance for reading my post !!!

You should have had received an Approval in about 3-6 after filing and is then forwarded and stored at NVC until the PD becomes current.

Check the case status online at www.uscis.gov

It is not all that unusual for an F4 petition to be at the bottom of the pile since the wait for a visa is so long (9 to 23 years, depending on country). A longer wait for approval may be beneficial to your nieces and nephews in retaining a visa under CSPA in the future.

June 18, 2010 : I -130 filed.

June 27, 2010 : I-797 NOA Reciept notice received on June 29, 2010.

August 29, 2010 : Recieved Approval notice, with notification that they are sending it to NVC.


Will probably hear something from NVC in 8-10 years I guess.
Make sure that it is on the bottom of the pile though by making a service request.
