I-130 Case Status

The I-130 is the family petition that starts many green card journeys. OPSControl watches your petition around the clock and alerts you the moment USCIS updates it.

The I-130 (Petition for Alien Relative) is how U.S. citizens and green card holders sponsor family members. USCIS updates the status as the petition moves through receipt, review, evidence requests, and approval.

OPSControl tracks your I-130 receipt number continuously, detects both official changes and silent updates, and sends an instant Telegram alert whenever something happens.

Add your petition with a single payment, and monitoring continues automatically until it's decided.

Families in the process of bringing a relative to the U.S. who don't want to miss a USCIS update.

Applicants who want the status pushed to them instead of checking the website by hand.
