            I guess no one has been approved lately. I check my status every day. Nothing new.

              frustrated_alot, you're U.S citizen, right ? If yes, how come Priority Date on your I-130 ??? Spouse of USC will not have PD. Am I right ?

                I received the following emails for both my I-130 and I-125F applications. I wonder what will happen next. Anyone have any experience with this?

                  Here is the updated spreadsheet.
                  Hi All, I received the notice to my I-130 on 03/06/08.

                    Congrats Shazizub ! That's real great news !

                    Since your I-130 is approved, I-129F will be invalidated and your beneficiary cannot get K-3/K-4. They need to go for IR1/CR1 now. Once you have physical copy of both approval notice, you can write to the corresponding U.S consulate about your situation. Good luck again !

                        What do you suggest my options are? I think I130 still requires additonal wait time of 5-6 months from this point forward correct?

                          If I were you, I would have opted IR1/CR1, since K-3 visa will most probably be rejected once I-130 is approved.

                          It is not taking 5-6 months time. If there is no RFE, NVC would take 3 months and U.S consulate would take another 1-2 months time. So it could be 4-5 months time.

                          Good luck again!

                            Is IR1/CR1 same as I-130? Sorry, I dont know what that means. I applied for K3 because I was not sure how lonk I-130 will take so, I submitted the K3. It doesnt cost anything extra. I just wanted to bring my wife here ASAP. Please let me know what IR1/CR1 is?

                            Thanks,

                              IR1/CR1 is Immediate Relative/Conditional Resident Petition, which is your I-130 petition with Adjustment of Status(I-1485) or Consular Processing.

                              Here is the brief:

                              1) After marriage, U.S citizen "petitioner" will file the Form I-130 for alien spouse "beneficiary", to Chicago lockbox.

                              2) U.S Citizen petitioner will then receive a Form I-797C (Notice of Action) for I-130 Receipt by the USCIS

                              3) Approved I-130 petition will be forwarded to National Visa Center (NVC) at New Hampshire by the Service Center.

                              4) U.S Citizen petitioner will then receive a Form I-797 (Notice of Action) for I-130 Approval by the USCIS.

                              5) NVC and Foreign Consulate Steps:

                              a) Affidavit of Support (I-864) processing fee bill ($70) will be sent to the petitioner. Use the envelope provided by NVC, but the stamps are needed.
                              b) Form DS-3032 (Agent Designation) will be sent to the beneficiary. Beneficiary should complete it and sent back
                              to NVC as soon as possible. Use the envelope provided by NVC, but the stamps are needed.
                              c) Form I-864 will be sent to the petitioner after getting the above fee. Petitioner must complete it and send to NVC.
                              d) After getting completed DS-3032 from the beneficiary, NVC will send an Immigrant Visa (IV) bill ($335) to the agent.
                              e) Once the IV bill is paid, NVC will send instruction package (Packet 3) to the agent.
                              f) Once the NVC/Consulate receives completed Packet 3, visa appointment package (Packet 4) will be sent to the beneficiary.
                              g) Beneficiary should complete medical, get the Police Clearance Certificate and proceed to the Consulate interview.

                              Hope this helps out. Some people use James Shortcut to speed up the mailing delay between the petitioner/beneficiary and NVC. But I do not recommend it. If everything is proper (without RFE) your spouse will be in the U.S in 4 to 5 months time, after I-130 approval.

                              Good luck!
