congrats!

Here is my story. I've lived problem free life, payed my taxes. One day I decided to marry this girl. But to do so would require her to come to US of A, and so it started. My problem free live turned in to free problems from USCIS! Sure things turned to unsure, certain dates turned to aproximation within months. All logical thinking was out the door, as I filed my papers withing famous Vermont Centre!

Congrats!!! Finally we see some activity at VSC

Thanks to you all :) It certainly has been a long wait :) Originally we had attorny that filed K3 ( i was not keen on K3) for us but it was never moving and i was not comfortable with not filing an I-130 for my son so we told attorney we were going to file I-130 for my son he was not too charmed about it but thats okay cause we are so glad we did. We stopped his services and carried on ourselves.

My I-130 and I-129F was filed 19th Oct 2007 in April 22nd we filed I-130 for my son along with a cancellation letter for the I-129F ( which we did ourselves) so now we went CR1 route which is better in the log run and the fact K3 was taking forever... so it has worked out for us. there was no delay in getting approved because of the late filing of my sons I-130 ( he is 12yrs of age and a minor)

Just so every one knows it can be done if anyone changes there plans from K3 to I-130 I know for a fact both I-130's are together as i have e-mail proof and will be on there way to NVC where i hope the process to go faster :)

I hope to be with my hubby by Sept :)

I was getting very depressed waiting, Now the news of approval has lifted my spirits , I havent seen my hubby in over 10 months a couple more wont hurt.

Michelle :)
