IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & ProceduresSo now I129F for K3 is going to be free?
Hey now this topic is starting to intestest me because I see now that it says its FREE in filing by the USC, well Dats me. I just might have to change my status then. Thanks Guys!!


Awesome INFO!
Thank you!!!
:yes:

Rika

You can?? I would think you would have to pay the same fees as the K1s pay for filing the I129F if you filed your I130 prior to the fee increases.

Can anyone confirm this?

Yes you can.

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & ProceduresLong story
I had done the same thing last year with my wife now who decided not to come to US with a fiance visa so I had to withdraw it after few months of sending it to the USCIS. Now after getting married in Feb I reply but this time as a relative. What I had to do is resummit a entire now packet to the USCIS because to my understanding there is nothing you can do to get the old petition and I-129F packet back. Sorry I think you need to find a way to get new evidence for your new I-130 petition. Gud look, Pal!

:thumbs:


This started a few years ago but on Jan of 2005 I filed a I-130 petition for my wife in the Philippines and after a year passed her interview date was in March of 2006. A week before the interview we had an arguement over the phone basically pressuring me to join her religion, I wouldnt budge, then she told me that she wouldnt go to the interview and I thought it was a bluff but apparently she really didnt go and then we had a falling of our marriage but we didnt divorce. After a few months I got a letter from the USCIS stating that the petition was withdrawn.
Last February the wife and I started talking again and have patched things up and now the both of us are certain that we want to be together again. Here is my question, can I reinstate the petition ? do I have to refile again ? does anyone know if the USCIS stores a copy of the pictures and forms that I sent them ? the reason that I ask about the pictures is that I need to send pictures of the wife and I together as supporting evidence and the only pics that I had was the one that I sent to the USCIS, is there a way to request these pics back ? or do they destroy them ? do they keep them ? how long is it stored ? If someone has info on this I would greatly appreciate it.


thanks in advanced !!!!!

She don't need to sign any part of the I-864 and it doesn't ask for it other then your signature anywhere.

I just realized that in my excitement to mail my application as soon as possible that I only sent one copy of the G325a for myself and my husband because I did not realize they needed 4 copies of the same page. Now I am so stressed. I have been waiting a month to hear anything--nothing, and I am worried that I will have to wait another month. What should I do? I feel like giving up every day! I spent so long waiting to find the right person to share my life with and now I can't even live in the same country as my husband. I want to start a family and all I am faced with is paperwork and 4 copies of the same page. I feel so helpless. Why does our country do this to us? helpsmilie.gif

Hi All!~
Just want to ask a question and hope that someone with a idea and knowledge can make me feel better about this issue. What date does the Service Center go by, the Receiving Date of the I-130 or the Notice Date of the NOA-1. The reason why am asking is because I sent in my 1-130 in Mid-May but didn't get my notice until early June? Thank you!

It was not hard to come up with evidence of a bona fide, I just followed what the instructions said to do. I did send in a few things like joint bank account statements and letters from witness to our wedding. Your right, we have not live together yet only when on vacation to PI.

Hello,
My wife and I are in the process of sending in the DS-230 form and I asked my wife to mail me the signed form so I can review it and send it in with the barcode cover sheet.
Mailing one letter with some sort of priority and safe shipping from Armenia costs around $100+.

My question is, can she just scan the signed sheet and email it to me or do we have to send in the actual sheet she has signed?
Will the copy of her signature be alright?

Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you

Hey all, I have a meeting scheduled at the local USCIS office with an immigration official. I'm not expecting too much to happen since my case is technically still pending, but maybe I can get some answers on my petition and find out why they transferred it from CSC to a local office. I'm also bringing more evidence this time, wedding pictures, other pictures, 6 months of detailed phone bills, copies of her passport and visa to show her visits to the U.S. I don't know if they will even take this evidence since I never got an RFE, but I guess it won't hurt to at least show it to them, meet with them face to face, and get some "honest" answers! whistling.gif
