Hi everyone!

After 2 years of deciding which visa to get we finally put in the paperwork for CR-1.

My husband (petitioner) was so proud of himself that he sent it last week and that they had received it. But I just looked over the copied package at home and realised he left out his g-325a. So my question is - do we wait for them to send us a RFE or should we send it now with a letter explaining his dumbness?!

:wacko:

11-05-06 Sent I-130 to California

06-01-07 INTERVIEW

06-04-07 Received VISA in the mail. Silly Consulate issued me CR-1 instead of IR-1, no time to change it in Australia, will try to change it once in California.

06-10-07 POE SFO

06-21-07 Receive SSN#

07-12-07 Receive Green Card in the mail STILL HAD CR1 INSTEAD OF IR1

12-10-07 Finally sent I-90 asking for a new green card with correct info.

06-17-08 INFOPASS - Was told USCIS sent new green card to old address back in Jan. Will resend it but may not be able to correct error as it was made by Consulate not USCIS.

What to do now??

Wait for the RFE. Sending it beforehand doe snot guarentee it will get matched to your file. Have it ready to go so the turn around will be quick and it should not cause you too much of a delay. Good Luck!

Hi everyone!

After 2 years of deciding which visa to get we finally put in the paperwork for CR-1.

My husband (petitioner) was so proud of himself that he sent it last week and that they had received it. But I just looked over the copied package at home and realised he left out his g-325a. So my question is - do we wait for them to send us a RFE or should we send it now with a letter explaining his dumbness?!

Well, it is hard to say. I had sent my own G-325A again to give them a more appropriate answer and they accepted it. But they would not have issued an RFE for me. For your case, they will definitely issue an RFE. The choice is yours. I would make two G-325A copies right away, send one to Califirnia USCIS explaining why you are sending it and save the other to send with the RFE.

I-130 Timeline with USCIS:

It took 92 days for I-130 to get approved from the filing date

NVC Process of I-130:

It took 78 days to complete the NVC process

Interview Process at The U.S. Embassy

Interview took 223 days from the I-130 filing date. Immigrant Visa was issued right after the interview
