I-130 Process...and now it begins...

[Davntara 0]

Hello fellow VJ followers...i'm a newbie with this, and I think that this site is great for all of us!

Just needed to know if anyone has any info on timelines for I-130 Process, to the interview and finally thei green card.

We filed the I-130 on Novemebr 1st, 2011 and it wasw received on November 14th, 2011.

My question is, how long does it take to process the I-130, and what form is next, and what info is needed.

My wife is an american citizen, and I'm a Canadian citizen.

Any help would be greatly appreciated and many thanks!

Dave

Additional info. Typically speaking, depending on where you file your petition the timelines differ and can just subject to additional and further review however for the most part the I-130 can take on average 5-7 months. I have seen instances however of it taking 1 month or 9 months.

I already provided you with some links for timelines. Also if you visit your country's portal (the counrty of the beneficiary) there are additional timelines in there that you can tap into.

Here is some additional information and links that might be helpful to understanding the process, the forms you will need, the documents you will need, etc:

if i was anyone with a pending I 130 at the csc i strongly suggest u send in an expedite. i sent my I130 in january 6,2012 and received my approval on january 23 2012 very simple and easy.....i was desperate to have my husband here i just cut 6 months of waiting into 2 weeks.

my case is now being transferred to the nvc

ghanalover,

what was your reason for expedite that made it so easy? I have read that only a small amount of expedites get approval.

Was it

military

medical or

financial?

thanks

What was the reason that you gave to apply for expedited services?

My wife sent in an exprdite request to CSC on 8 March 2012, called USCIS and was told they do not do expedite requests before two months. How did you request go through so fast?
