I-130 previously filed

[clairern 0]

Hi guys/Gals:

I am a lurker on this wonderful and informative site. I am planning to file my I-129F sometime next year. (I realize that tghe fees will be estra high, but due to certain circumstances, I have to do it next year April). My question is this.- My fiance lives in Jamaica, and his father had previously filed an I-130 for him in 2000. The petiton was approved and sent to the NVC to await a visa number. You all know that it takes years for a visa numbe to become available, especially for a beneficiary over 21 yo. I was wondering if filing my I-129f petition would send out any flags seeing that he is already in the system. Or should I wait to see what is gonna happen with the previously filed I-130? I do not want this to affect or delay my petition. You have all been through this journey and know how fraustrating and overwhelming the whole process is. Any advice would be greatly and highly appreciated. Thanks

Hey, I don't think it will cause a problem, you just have to be truthful about being filed for by his dad...when you send in the i-129f t will get ur fiance here quicker and when approved his fathers application will be void..I think

Thanks for the reaasurance Kimmy. I also thought that one wouldn't have any effect on the other, but you never know with the USCIS and their weird beauracracy
