I-129F vs I-130 Clash

[Tero 105]

Here's my story so far...

Nov 17, 2009 …..Priority date of my NOA 1 for I-129F

After about 4 ½ months, petition approved by USCIS

July 23, 2010 ….Fiancee was denied visa at the consulate, CO claimed we were already married. They said they’d return our petition to DHS for revocation.

Tried to appeal, got senators involved, they refused reconsideration.

Sept/Oct, 2010 ...Traveled to get a court marriage and obtained a marriage certificate

Oct 25, 2010 ...mailed my complete I-130 forms with applicable evidences

Oct 27, 2010 ...My priority date for NOA 1

Dec 17, 2010 …Dated letter stating that my I-129F was returned to USCIS due to CO’s report of our relationship being a suspect. They said the petition is closed as the original validity was expired.

Jan 14, 2011 …Dated letter stating my I-129F has been reopened to reconsider original decision.

I called USCIS today and was very polite, (which was reciprocated) asked why my forgotten/close K-1 petition was reopened and how it would affect my Spousal. I was told that when they got my I-130, they had to reopen my K-1 (on Dec 1, 2010) to see that we were wrongly denied visa by the consulate the first time. They said they would resend it back to the consulate to issue my wife a K-3 visa.
