Hi there!!

I had interview yesterday at Frankfurt.My husband is American Citizen and we live here in Germany.

He is stationed here.Anyways we forgot to put on I-130 our address in States because we don't know where we gonna live.

What should we do??Should we go again and bring new I -130?? My husband leaves in April and I hope we can go together.

Please help.

Thank you Ryan for your reply!

I just hope that they will approve my I-130 without that information.

It's so difficult to contact anyone in Frankfurt Consulate.

Maybe you can try contacting the USCIS office in Frankfurt. Not sure if you have already tried this contact information:

Tel: 069-7535-2233

Email: uscis.frankfurt@dhs.gov

Good luck with the process. We filed the I-130 on October 12, 2012 and I have my interview on January 16, 2013. So keep your fingers crossed that you will be able to go with your husband.

It's so hard to reach them.It's crazy!!

I asked few things in email but they only answered one question.I am gonna keep trying!!

Wow!! So happy for you,that is not long at all.

Are you in Air force as well??

Sorry, I can imagine it being a headache trying to reach them. I did read in other forums that it is better not to send in or file a corrected I-130 as that may delay the process. I would imagine it is probably a good idea if you can reach them on the phone or e-mail though. Good luck!!

No, not Air force, just my American husband when we both were living in Munich (I am South American). I think filing in person in Frankfurt definitely helps with times. And make sure to start collection all the documents the visa section will require as soon as possible. If you have everything ready, once the I-130 gets approved, the process goes really fast.

We never received an NOA1 or an NOA2 but directly the third package. I think it is normal not to receive the NOA1 if you file in person, so don't worry if you don't get it.

Will keep my fingers crossed for you!

Thank you so much.You helped me so much.

I called them today and said I won't receive any case number till next step.

Do you know what kind of documents I need for a second part??

I know D-230 part I and II and Criminal records ( I need 3 of them lol.One from Poland - I am Polish Citizen and second from Spain,I have lived there 4 years and now from Germany)

Gracias para todo.Tengas un buen día:)

I'm glad you were able to talk to them. You will need to gather all the documents you can found on the german embassy web page. (go to visas, immigrant visas, how to apply, step 4, and then the link that says: IV Document checklist). Sorry, I can't post links here because I am too new :-) .

Be sure to get all of those ready as soon as you can.

Igual para ti!

ya, ds-230 and I-864 is next.

Don't sweat the address on the I-130, but do sweat it for the ds-230 - have an address sussed out by then, even if a po box in the usa -

as that's where the green card will be mailed.

Sometimes my language usage seems confusing - please feel free to 'read it twice', just in case !
Ya know, you can find the answer to your question with the advanced search tool, when using a PC? Ditch the handphone, come back later on a PC, and try again.

You all guys have been very helpful.

Does anybody know what happens after I-130 gets approved.

We field in Frankfurt so not sure if it's different.

Does USCIS sends our papers to NVC in States???

I have a quick question....

MY husband filed for me I-130 last week and I would like to know if I need to wait till my case is approved before sending DS-230 and Affidavit of Support.

I would love to speed up the process because My husband has orders and he leaves in April.

Thank you for any information:)

Yes, you have to wait for approval then you have to be billed for them.

That's a whole other part of the process.

I'd say whole other half, but I think in some cases it's less than the I-130 part =]

You say he has orders as in military orders?

I think maybe you can apply for an expedite?

Then you'd get approval much faster than like 4-5 months.

No guarantee, but can't hurt to try.

Ok, Thank you for reply.

Yes military orders but I think you can expedite process if my husband is gonna deploy that's the only exception:(

We filed in person and we informed the officer that my husband will leave in April he told out we should be ok to leave together.

I think it's quicker if you do in in person.

Do you know when should I do my medical exam some people do it way before interview.

It's all so confusing:)
