This Has Been A Worry To Me

[Kyle 0]

Please give me some information on this situation. I am married and I filed two petitions, an I-130 petition and a I-129f petition. The I-130 was approved and is completed by the National Visa Center and now we are waiting for our interview at the embassy. But the I-129f was denied and what is so strange is that it was denied because we were already married and it was denied for that fact. They said that the petition was filed and they throught that we were filing because I wanted to bring my wife to the united states and get married, but when I filed the I-129f I was married and I sent them the married papers with the paperwork, so I do not know what they are trying to say there. My attorney stated that we do not need the I-129f petition since the I-130 has been approved. Will I run into any problems about the I-129f at the interview or what to you all think of this.

What should have happened was for you to file the I-130, when you got the receipt for the I-130, that should have gone with your marriage certificate, with the I-129F. Sounds like DHS approved a married person for a fiance Visa, glad the consulate caught it. Bunch of morons 4 sure working there.

I do not know if this will give you any problelm. However, the I-130 and I-12F has different steps in processing. I-130 is being processed in the NVC and gets approved before it is forwarded to your embassy/consulate but, the I-129F will take only a few days at the NVC and the processing is continued at the embassy/consulate.

Filing for I-129F for a married person must have filed an I-130 first. I do not know if you did the protocol with regards to I-129F.

Kyle,

Just out of curiosity - when did you submit the I-129f petition? And where?

In any event a K3 visa, for which the I-129f is a prerequisite, is intended to allow an alien wife to enter the USA as a non-immigrant while an I-130 petition is being processed. Your I-130 petition has been processed to completion, so there's no longer any point to the I-129f - as your attorney has explained to you.

Just a guess here, BUT did you send your marriage certificate & NOA from your I-130 with your I-129F?
