Did anyone went thru this experience??

My I-130 went to CSC, according to the state I reside, my I-129F for K3 went to VSC (but according to the info on USCIS it should go to the service center where the underlying I-130 us currently pending).

Is this normal??, I tired calling the customer service, but all they do is tell me what I already know, not answering my question. :whistle:

Any advise??

I've never heard of that. I dont think its normal. try escalating your call to get to an officer at VSC. They may just forward it to CSC or send it back to you and advise youto send it to CSC.

Good Luck

Timeline: 13 month long journey from filing to visa in hand

If you were lucky and got an approval and reunion with your loved one rather quickly; Please refrain from telling people who waited 6+ months just to get out of a service center to "chill out" or to "stop whining" It's insensitive,and unecessary. Once you walk a mile in their shoes you will understand and be heard.

Thanks!

I remember this happening to a couple of VJers a couple years back, but so much has changed since then. Back then, the I129F was eventually forwarded on to the correct service center from the incorrect one when they realized that they did not have an underlying I130 to match it with.

If this happened, consider it a blessing. By the time the I-129F gets to California where it belongs, the I-130 will be approved and the I-129F will be dead on arrival. Why people are still trying the K3 route these days is beyond me. Do they never read anything in the forums first. K3 is obsolete. This is the third time I've typed that now in the last few minutes.

Hopefully there's no children involved.

(I'm going for the IR-1 and blowing off the K-3. Even if it takes an extra couple months, it's worth it to not have to deal with USCIS again)

"Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, the wretched refuse of your teeming shore. Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me, I lift my lamp beside the golden door!"

Note:

Please fill out I-130, wait 6 months for approval, then 3 more months for an interview. (Unless of course we've bombed your country into the stone age, then you qualify for expedited processing.)
