I-129f question in regards to the CR-1

[jonesg111 0]

I was reading one of the guides to speeding up the CR-1 visa, and it mentioned in there the I-129f. With this visa do you have to file that one?

What we have been doing is just following the VJ Cr-1 guide as its written out on the website and I've seen nothing on there in regards to that paper, should I look into it? thanks

For a spouse, the I-129F is only required if you might want to seek a K-3.

In other words, if you file I-130 and then I-129f, you will be put in the process for a K3 visa.

If you file the I-130 alone, you stay in the normal process for a CR1/IR1 visa.

Some people choose to pursue the K3 visa because with certain consulates, the process is faster. However, it really depends on the consulate. For example, for us, Mexico goes the same speed for both, or possibly faster for the CR1/IR1 lately. You would want to find out from other Canada filers how long it's taking for each visa and decide from there...

Go with the CR-1 all the way as they are MUCH better visas than K3s.

Yes, the CR-1 is the way we're going, I just saw some information about that and wanted to confirm that its not necessary. Thanks
