hey, i am new to this .. and i think that its better you got your i-130 approved..you wont have to deal with more paperowrk in the future.plus k3 and i-130's are taking approx same time, give or take 2 months...

even i feel that will happen to me also.. as i filed my i-130 in beginning of oct.. and i -129f filed in january..

if there is anyone out there to explain the step after the i-130 approval.. please do post it.. and what exactly does it say on our receipt notice??

May be a blessing, K-3 involves Adjustment of status later, cost $1010, and K-3 is not work auth, so has to wait 90 days or more to get work permit.

CR-1 (I-130) is the better visa, it results in green-card upon entry to the USA, allowing work, and other things like getting SSN.

OUR TIME LINE Please do a timeline it helps us all, thanks.

Is now a US Citizen immigration completed Jan 12, 2012.

sorry for multiple post,wi-fi connection bad sides.

On our NOA2 states that case was forwarded to nvc, what I've seen on VJ to those who got I-129 also approved usually their data indicate that beneficiary is in usa and will apply for aos even is not.

As next step after approval: call to nvc if they're received petition 603 334 0700( best time 8a.m to talk to operator or 24/7 system).also I would recommend to learn James shortcut on vj viki. seems that's really time saver. good luck
