K-3 Spouse Visa Process & Procedures	need help	QUOTE (RoxcieJoe @ May 19 2009, 06:37 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Hello, we need more information to be able to help you. I am going to assume your wife and stepson is in JA. Are you presently, living here in the USA? If your wife and step-son is here in the USA too, then you would be doing an AOS, if not then you should procedd with the CR1. Don't worry about doing the K3, because it takes the same amount of time that a CR1 does. Once your CR1 is sent to NVC, it can take as little as a month to be approved, then about a month after that to get an interview. The CR1 is better for your family, because they will enter the USA with a CG if all is approved. Thanks for the reply! Yes I am her in the states yeah the k3 was denied still waiting on why? probably cause you don't need it since the I-130 were approved just lost some time with even dealing with the k3 soo I think but I dont know much	conch33036	Male	Jamaica	2009-05-19 17:43:00

A K3 visa can only be denied by a Consulate. A petition can be denied by USCIS, which is what sounds like has happened. If your I-130 was approved only 5 days after you mailed your I-129F, the I-129F would have been denied simply because there was no longer a "pending" I-130. Count this as a blessing. K3 is an obsolete visa category waiting to be buried. Follow the CR1 path your I-130 is on. Please note that nobody has applied for a visa yet. You filed a petition. NVC doesn't deny visas. yes it was the ucis that denied it but denied it as a k1 visa going for th Cr1 but waiting for the funds! I am in the construction business and haven't worked in 3months my lawyer resubmitted the k3 again explaining what they did wrong thanks for the input I hope you didn't pay the lawyer to do that, because USCIS did nothing wrong. They cannot approve an I-129F for a beneficiary spouse unless the I-130 petition is still pending. Since your I-130 is approved, the best you'll get back from them is another denial perhaps stating the correct reason or perhaps not. It sounds like somebody simply checked the wrong box resulting in the wrong reason for denial appearing on the form letter. With an approved I-130 your I-129F will not be approved. Forget about the K3 and follow the CR1 path. That's your only remaining option. If you don't have the fees and your I-864 won't look good, NVC will hold the I-130 up to a year. thanks again going for the CR next month when things are better here! anyone have a general idea of the timeline on that? just going to lose sometime	conch33036	Male	Jamaica	2009-05-28 12:06:00
