Asked in Immigration Law for Arizona

Q: where is the file sitting now if it has been rolled over from F2A to F2B

Who do I contact to find out information on the case , when I call uscis they say that nothing has been done on the case and we have to submit a new I130 pay the fee and start all over again. This doesn't seem right as I'm sure we were told she would be rolled over to F2B and keep the same priority date. Now we are being told we have to start all over again??? Her original priority date was march 2015 and we dont want to loose all that waiting time. Also at the time of filing back in march 2015 we paid I130 fee for myself and an I130 fee for my daughter who was under 21 and now they say we have to pay the fee again. I want to know who I can contact as uscis and nvc and not that helpful and alot do not know the answers and when you ask for a supervisor to call you back they never do. I really need to know who I contact. Please advise. Thank you

A: Immigrant visa (IV) applicants currently working with the National Visa Center (NVC) to complete their IV applications should make sure NVC has a working e-mail address for at least one party on their case. (A case party is the petitioner, beneficiary, or agent/attorney.) If you have not previously given NVC an e-mail address where you can be contacted, please call 1-603-334-0700 to provide your e-mail information. When you call, have your case number, petitioner’s full name, and the beneficiary’s full name and date of birth available. NVC will then be able to e-mail you information and instructions rather than send them via traditional mail, which means you will receive items like NVC’s responses to submitted documents and notice of your visa interview appointment more quickly.
