You can file your Form I-130 online. If you choose to mail your form instead, use the table below to find the correct filing address. Applications and petitions that are not mailed to the appropriate filing location may experience processing delays.

Approximately 10 to 14 Months After Filing Most Form I-130 petitions for immediate relatives are approved within a 10 to 14 month time frame, but they can take longer in some cases. If you are in the United States and also filed an application to adjust status, USCIS will begin reviewing Form I-485 at this point.

You can generally request expedited processing by calling the USCIS Contact Center at 800-375-5283 (TTY 800-767-1833) or by asking Emma after you have obtained a receipt notice.

File your form online for a more convenient and secure experience. For forms available only in paper, select the Form Details button to download the form and instructions. USCIS forms and USCIS online accounts are always free.

Mail your forms to the address listed on that form's webpage. You may submit your forms through USPS, FedEx, DHL, or UPS. We encourage you to save a copy of your payment, along with any tracking number provided by the courier, for your records and to allow you to verify the status of its delivery.

The travel document usually arrives within 150 days (sometimes longer) after submitting your application. You can't leave the country until you have your approved travel document in hand, so you should expect to spend the 3?5 months after submitting your green card application in the United States.

By filing online, you can avoid common mistakes, such as submitting your form without a signature or failing to include some parts of the completed pages of Form I-130. In addition, you can save your draft application and finish it later at your convenience. Payment for your filing fee is also secure and easy.
