K3 approved 30 mins after I130

What was approved was your I-129F petition for spouse. K3 is a visa. The two petitions were approved together by the same person at the same time. The emails arrived 30 minutes apart.

Wow... a little harsh don't you think? This is a website where people from all over the world come and learn about the US immigration process. Not all speak perfect english, like in your case, but I am not judging. Learn some tolerance and respect, life may be a little brighter if you take off the blinders.

Does your brain hurt when you think? This is a K-3 forum. The OPs petition for a K-3 (I129F) was approved. A quick glance tells you everything you need to know. The OP is petitioning his or her spouse from Nigeria. Do you know the people posting on this site to the point that you care that it is Jim or Bob or Peter or Sue? K-3 is even mentioned so its not someone in the wrong forum.
