K-3 Spouse Visa Process & ProceduresNEW PROCESSING TIMES

Check the National Center for the K-3's. I'm assuming that shows what they think they are processing as far as when you are allowed to complain about being outside of processing time.

Anyway, the times don't show anything meaningful. The timelines on this site are much more relevant.


They have posted new processing time at USIS. This time California moves backwards with K-1 visas (from May 2 to April 18 !!!). They have not posted K-3 visa in California nor in Vermont!!!
What is going on??????????



Thanks! I touhgt we shoul be in VSC or CSC, depending on transfer. I gues I have got it all wrong. I was really woried about this

K-3 Spouse Visa Process & ProceduresNeed Help-I-797E notice of action
[ The issue is that I submitted my marriage certificate which is certified as being an international marriage certificate with translation of it on the last page.




Same thing happened to us with our I-130 petition. We have also send "international marriage certificate" but it seams that one is not valid for them. They need translation in english only. We have also decided to translate it and we are now waiting notice of RFE recipient. I hope that everything is going to be OK this time....

It is difficult to tell. Some cases gets their aproval very fast. I have received my NOA1 two and a half months ago and still no NOA2. But I have seen some people getting them within 60 days. You can chek situation here: http://www.visajourney.com/timeline/ . It would be good to post your timeline there. That way you can track your case and let us all know what is going on with it.

Well it took me and my wife some time but we sent out the I-129F last week and to my knowledge I recieved the second notice it's the I-797c and well it says Chicago recieved it and does Chicago actually do the process of the forms and if so what has been the average time with them. Well I guess thats one less thing to worry about now :D




I think you talk about you NOA1 not NOA2. Am I right????


Well to be honest with you I am not quite to sure if its the NOA1 when do you recive the NOA2?



NOA1 is the first notice of action. You receive it when they frist get your case. NOA2 is second notice of action. That is the one you get when they aprove your petition. I think that you have got you NOA1 and that your petition will be forwarded to VSC or CSC. That is the way they do that right now...

Well, the point is that it should be faster then CR1/IR1. I still think you can send e-mails as proof of your relationship and I think that has to do something with new regulations. They now require proofs of relationships even for those who are married. I still cannot help you about translations. I think you can see that in the topic I have send you, it does not matter the topic is about K1. It is the same as far as translations of e-mails is what we are talking about.
What does it say in instructions for K3? I think new instructions are to send proof of relationship with your petition even though if you are married.

Well, it seems like it is all up to person who is dealing with your file. Our marriage certificate was international too and it contains filelds in english, but we have received RFE about it...
It looks like it is all different from case to case, or schould I say that it depends on people who are working with our cases.
Anyway, it is better to be safe then sorry

You will have to translate international marriage certificate.
We have received an RFE because of that. They want documents in english only. My husband took our marriage certificate to some sort of agency and it was translated next day.
It would be better for you to do it now, because you will eventualy receive an RFE and you will have to do it anyway...
Good luck!

Congratulatons to everyone who already have thier approvals, and good luck to all of us for the rest of our journey...



Congrats!! What was the RFE for (if you don't mind me asking)?




We have sent international marriage certificat and they need only translation in english. That was strange to me. On international m.c. you can find translation to english and other languages, but they wanted english only. Luckly it all tourned out well, and it was done very fast after it. :thumbs:

Congratulations!!!!!


we have send I-824 together with I-130. We have originally filed those forms for DCF, but we did not have time to wait for appointment at the cosulat, so my husband took those forms with him in USA. So we have send I-824 together with I-130. Will we have to fill it again? I am not sure will they ask the same form again. Anyone done something like this???

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & ProceduresTracking Recently Approved I130 Petitions
Our I-130 was forwarded to NVC and they have received it on December 12. They have also gave us case number. It starts with CDJ- I guess that means Croatia. Is there any way I can find out does CDJ really stands for Croatia? (this is kind a problem form me-in my country I cannot get immigrant visa, so I assume they will send it to Croatia)
And, unfortunatlly, nothing new with K-3.... Hope to be soon, I find all this things at NVC for I-130 really complicated and very, very slow....

It was completed on March 14, but we have found out about it yesterday (thru automated phone message).
I am not sure what to do now. I will have an interview for K-3 probably next week and I am not sure how long will I have to wait for CR-1 interview.
I will probably take K-3 because I do not want to wait couple more months to be with my husband.
Good luck to all of you!!!!!!
