I130 & I 129F approved

[vicky_izzo 0]

hi,

we just got approval of both our I130 and I129F ( CR1 & K3). i just want to know what's the best thing to do. Proceed with the k3 so i can be in the US faster and just do the change of status there? or proceed with the CR1 and just wait for it here in Manila.

and if we choose to just proceed with 1 ( k3 or cr1) what will we do with the other one? just ignore it?

please help.

thank you

CR1 is the way to go. The processing times for both the K3 and CR1 are the same. With the CR1 you don't have to do any adjustments once you are in the US and you get your SS# and GC a few weeks after you arrive.

As far as the K3, yes, just ignore it.

Good Luck!

BTW, i had the same dilemma and went with the CR1.

I agree. USCIS even told us we made the right choice by dropping the K3

I'm starting to question the use of the K-3 when everyone I know of had both approved on the same day (me included).

Stupid VSC....

The K3 Process was taking only about 6 month when the CR1 was taking close to a year. It seems that this is not the case anymore.
