Im sure everyone can relate how stressful it is going thru the Visa process and getting all the paperwork done.

Well, i read a thread where one individual who submitter there i-130 on the same date already got there NOA1. Im also freaked cause i dodnt send in an original of my divorce papers.

Anyone have an opinion if i should be worried.

TRANQUILO! TRANQUILO!

First off, get used to it because there really is no logic as to who gets approved before who. The folks who get their NOA2 in a few weeks are usually active military--which make all of us jealous but they really do deserve to be expedited. Just calm down and det ready for the long haul.

Regarding not sending originals of your divorce decree, do not worry. I sent in a copy and I was approved. BUT you will need an original certified copy of your divorce decree for the interview.

Good luck & GOD BLESS YOU BOTH!

Thanks man...

i needed the good words of encouragement. I know what you mean about the military. I actually met my wife while i was stationed at the Embassy...but i wasnt ready to marry her then...we had to make sure it was the real thing and thank God it was more than i could have hoped for. Now im out and of course have to do it the "regular" way. I appreciate the kind words and again thank you.

There's no rhyme or reason to who gets approved first and who doesn't. USCIS says they approve/deny by first come first serve, but we all know that isn't true.

Never ever send originals to USCIS, you'll never see them again. They want copies, as long as you put a copy of your divorce decree/certificate in the package you're ok.

Well first off, thank you for your service. Truly. I have the utmost respect for you and the danger you volunteered to put yourself in. Thank you.

Second, you certainly chose the better route with the K3. Looking back, I wish I had gone that route because it would have been easier to get the green card.

Wishes for a blessed and wonderful future.
