Hi,

I'm currently in the U.S. on a K3 visa. We have already adjusted status, and everything has gone smoothly.

A few days ago, we received a letter in the foreign country titled "Notice of termination of registration". This letter indicated that our immigrant visa has been canceled.

Is this something we should be worried about? I think this is for the I-130 immigrant visa, but I've been living here in the U.S. for almost two years now (came over on a non-immigrant visa), and have a green card.

Thanks.

Not quite sure what that means. If you've already adjusted status I wouldn't worry about it.

(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)

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.)

Welcome to the USA!!!

If you've already adjusted status, why would you need an immigrant visa?

I wouldn't worry about it as long as you have the green card

Good luck

The I-130 was not cancelled. The Immigrant Visa process was. No problem. You already immigrated and adjusted status based on the approved I-130.

Okay thanks to all for your responses. I won't worry about it. I've tried calling the visa center for some time now #(603-334-0700), but i continue to get a busy signal. I emailed them a while back but no response yet. I'm guessing they are busy lately.

So my 2 years are coming up soon. Do you guys know what forms I need to fill out for the 2 year mark? The interviewer mentioned some forms I needed to fill out after living here for two years. Any info on that would be helpful. Thanks again.

K-3 visa holders are required to file the Adjustment of Status 'package' within 2 years of arrival,

not

'at 2 years'.

You can delay filing this for 2 years, max.

AOS info is in the guides here - please have a look? (Train yer eyes upward, click on the word 'Guides' then pick the one you need)

Good Luck !

Sometimes my language usage seems confusing - please feel free to 'read it twice', just in case !

** moved from "Adjustment of Status (Green Card) from Family Based Visas" to General Immigration Related Discussion as this isn't a question about the AOS process specifically, more a general Immigration "question"/need for definition**

Thanks for the responses.

I've already did AOS. I'm just confused about this part:

"*If your interview (and specifically the approval) occurs within 2 years of your marriage you will be granted a conditional permanent residency (2 year validity). If this happens you will have to apply to lift conditions 90 days prior to your 2 year green card expiring. If you are 'adjusted' greater than 2 years after you were married you should receive a normal 10 year green card."

So I think we were granted a conditional permanent residency. My question is, what steps do I need to take now? Our green card is getting close to the expire date (within 90 days). Thanks again.
