K-3 Spouse Visa Process & ProceduresDid any one recently have to file I 824?
I posted in K3 forum because I thought people here might have gone through this. If it is wrong the please somebody move it to the right forum,then I'm terribly sorry for posting it in the wrong forum.

Did any of you recently have to file for I824 to have CSC sent the approved I130 to NVC?
I guess we made a mistake on our I130 since we only filed for Cr1.
My question is, is the estimated waiting time for approval of the I824 really 6 month or did any of you expirience a faster processing? Would love to get any information about I824 from you as possible!
Thank you all sooooo much luv.gif


If you filed only the I-130, it will be sent to NVC after approval. There would be no need to file the I-824. Why have you posted in the K3 forum instead of IR1/CR1 forum? Did you also file an I-129F for a K3 visa?


pushbrk - i think Dini has incorrectly answered question 22 on I-130 where she has indicated that the intending immigrant is in the united states (when in reality they are not) and will adjust status. thats what i gathered from her previous posts. am i correct Dini?


Ja you are correct. I think we answered wrong. Our approval notice from the I130 says we need to file I824 to have CSC sent our I130 to NVC.A congressman couldn't help us any, so we ave to file it. We never filed for a I129.

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & ProceduresI need some help with what adress to chose..
Hi Guys, I'm new here and i wait for my I130 approval. wacko.gif
I have some serious problems though. Once the I 130 gets aproved and i have to tell them where to send the greencard (after all the other paperwork of course..) I don't know where my husband and i will live then. right now he lives with his brother and sister in law, but 1. i don't want to live with them (she's a very messy person and doesn't care for her kids) and 2.there'd be no space anyway. my husband works like crazy now and i also try to safe as much money as possible. PROBLEM: what address do i want the greencard send to??? and where do i put my name on the mailbox if it is a housing area?? blink.gif
Thanks guys! I appreciate your help! biggrin.gif

Congratulations! (Better late than never right?) wink.gif
I have a question. Did you guys send in the original and translated ploicecertificate,marriage certificate and birt certificate to NVC or did he have to bring it to Frankfurt? I'm so confuses about it. I would send in the originals and translated copies and make a set of copies for me to bring to Frankfurt. Am I thinking right?

Thank you!

I get the "how would you even find out if he's cheating on you" or "i bet he's seeing other women" a lot. It's hard to be so far away and people pull you down even more sometimes with their stupid comments. We're gonna make it and so will you guys! We are strong!

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & ProceduresAPRIL/MAY 2008 VSC FILERS
I filed for a Cr1 visa (just I-130) but I know exactly how you feel. I filed April 7th and i didn't even get a touch yet. I check my emails daily also but nothing ever changes. I hope that someday when we don't expect it we'll get approved. Best wishes to you! You're not alone!

Hello!

It's almost 5 months now since we sent our I130 and I129 and until now we still haven't heard anything from VSC. Congratulations to the Feb filers who are getting approved. But seriously, do we really have to wait this long? How can CSC approve it in 3 months or less and we at VSC are still hanging there somewhere? Do they understand the anxiety (and stress) that this whole time give us? I cry almost every day because i feel like nobody's there to help us. Nobody who somehow understands even just a bit, about the pain.

Everyday i'd check my email hoping that there's a CRIS notification in my inbox. And then i proceed with visajourney to see any updates with those who filed ahead of us. And finally my account with the USCIS.I have been in this routine for a while now and as much as i want to put it to rest, i can't. I need to know what's going on and how long will i wait. I miss my husband and i want to be with him more than anything.

Last week, i emailed the ombudsman and got a reply. However, what i thought was a personal email looked like a "copy and paste" of the other email replies that the rest have gotten. My husband wrote his senator again too. he wrote one before we started the process and of course that hasn't been replied to.

Desperation. Maybe that's why we do this. But only because we want so much to be together. I pray that the Lord will touch the hearts of the VSC people who work on our papers. These are people's lives. No matter how bad the economic situation is in the US, i am willing to leave my job and be with the one person that i love the most. Because life only happens when i am with him. Without my husband by my side, i'm just mere existing.

IF THERE'S ANYONE FROM VSC WHO READS THIS. WE HOPE YOU GET TO SLEEP SOUNDLY
...because we don't...we can't...not until our tears our gone...not until we are united with our families.

Brian

CSC was supersonic till the end of August. In Sept. they starded processing petition transfered from VSC. Now CSC got the transfered virus from CWSC and is equally sick as VSC.
They need anti virus drug from Dr. Ziwago.

I am so depressed and need prozac.


Never lose hope, it's the number one necessary thing in this process. I'm depressed too. I was away from my husband when he was in the Army and now USA makes me be apart from him even longer. some days I think they hate me..

Wait is killing me. Almost 100 days from filing for me and not even a single touch after check was cashed.

I want interest on that. 9.0 %.

I didn't have a single touch yet and i'm waiting for +210days. but you got lucky. I'm stuck at Vermont. CSC is a lot faster.
