notice of transfer,I-130>I-129F

[j_oolet 0]

Hi all..

I think I already know the answer to this.. I have read that the NOA is the notice of transfer.. But i have also read that it is indicated on the NOA>. Technically it is not.. It is listed on the address on the envelope e.g. uscis vermont service center.. So a copy of NOA is all that is required?

Is the transfer of notice a seperate document?, Is it located in the NOA? and i somehow dont see it? or is it the NOA itself and the notice of transfer is implied in the address on the envelope//

tnks.

NOA1 is Receipt, NOA2 is Approval and transfer to NVC of the petition.

Forget the K-3 and consider the CR-1, you will be happier for it.

For PI CR-1 takes about same time to get, COMPARE timelines.

CR-1 has the big benefit of GREEN-CARD upon entry, NO ADJUSTMENT OF STATUS. K-3 CANNOT get SSN, WORK, or Get driver's license until they have EAD or Green-card, EAD can take 90 days or MORE to get.

K-3:

I-130: $355

I-129F: NONE

Consulate: $131

AOS: $1010

($1496)

CR-1

I-130: $355

NVC I-864: $70

NVC Visa fee: $400 ($355+$45)

($825)

I see many posts from K-3 holders stating, "Wow this sucks, I an stuck at home because I don't have EAD, DL, etc, or I am having hard time getting added to bank accounts because of NO SSN." K-3 has a 90 day or longer period of limbo while waiting for EAD or Green-card.

K-3 was developed at a time when CR-1 was taking much longer that today, NVC has greatly streamlined the CR-1 process to the point where K-3 becomes irrelevant.
