You should call NVC in another 4 days time and ask for your case number first. After that wait for a couple of more days prior to asking for your IIN, while asking for IIN, make sure you call at evening hours and don't give out reasons to why you need your IIN.

Do read lotto's guide for detailed step by step process.

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & ProceduresIt just kind of hit me!
Well I am nervous too, been 4 years to marriage and its finally hitting me that may be this year we will start living together. Apart from the usual jitters of adjusting to a whole new environment and trying to snatch a decent job for myself, I am worried about small things too. Like for instance out here from where I am in India, we get free medical facility but it won't be the same in USA and how much of a burden I would be on my husband at start.

Then I got to worry about the time when we decide to have a family, again in India, you get your relatives to help you out, taking care of your child or you can get someone to help you by paying them a minimal amount, but in USA it will be only me and hubby, his relatives live far off to help me out and I doubt we will be able to afford outside help, so it will be me giving up any job if I have and I don't really want to do it.

I think right now, its a bitter sweet moment I am going throgh, I am excited about him coming over for the interview and going through the Visa process but then I am also sad that I will be leaving my place which I love so dearly, my dad, my brother, my grandma. Especially my grandma, she is getting older by the day, don't even know when will I see her next if ever.

Well that's life and you just have to go with the flow.

Its 3 months for India. And you will have to apply either for PIO or Entry visa from Indian Consulate Generals in USA.

Yeah guys its really sad thanks for all help and support.

My fiance went to New Delhi chanakpurry embassy in INDIA. we got 221G the reason was we didnt had enough proof evidence. I am not sure what other options are left beside going their marrying him?>

May I know if I can marry my fiance and stay their for certain period of time (not sure for how long i have to stay?) So we can apply at new delhi embassy and bring him back with me? Can someone pelase fill me on these details.

Thanks in advance.


You can choose DCF (Direct Consular Filing) if you wish to stay for the time being in India after your marriage. For India you need to stay around 3 months prior to filing DCF and the whole DCF process usually takes a maximum of 2 months.

A word of caution, while going to India, make sure you aren't going through Tourist VISA, one can only file DCF if they have some kind of permanent residency VISA for India. Since you were an Indian a few years ago, you can apply for PIO (Person of Indian Origin) or even get Entry VISA and that will fulfill your purpose.

Well document your relationship with him; also give American consulate family chart showing how you two have different family background/blood.

Again Best of Luck good.gif

Really sorry to hear that. Did they give you a reason ? Which consulate did you go to ? I just sent my K1 packet to VSC a couple of weeks and asked for Chennai or Delhi as my fiancee is based in Kolkata and they do not issue K1 visas there.

Reading your experience, I am wondering if I should go to India, get married and file for a spouse visa (CR1/IR1/K3).

Again, really really sorry to hear about experience. Hang in there. Just a few more months and gods will be smiling back at you and your fiance.



Your Fiance will get Mumbai Consulate, cases of Calcutta region gets forwarded to Mumbai.

To OP, sorry to hear about your denial, do think the problem lay with you being an adopted immigrant yourself and that gives CO more reasons to scrutinize your case. Do get married in India and apply for either k-3 or CR-1 and do try to be present there with your husband when he will have to go through his interview in the future.

Best of luck good.gif

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & ProceduresAnyone who's in I-130 from Texas Service Center?
I am a little confused. Are you already in USA and just doing adjustment of status or are you (beneficiary) is still in her country and your husband is starting the CR-1 process to bring you to USA?

If its the second option then your petition will either go to California or Vermont Service centers. I think for Louisiana it should be Vermont.
