Hi to all,

My USC wife and me married for over 14 months and we didnt file I-130 application, In that time my wife lived with me in pakistan and travel once to usa for a month. Now she will be leaving in one month for USA for next four month for child birth. before leaving can we file application from Pakistan to chicago lockbox or she may go to states and file from her usa adress. Can anybody please tell me what is best in our case. And yes my wife will join me after four month in Pakistan,

Thanks

For starters, the I-130 is a petition form, not an application form.

The I-130 can be filed before she leaves Pakistan.

Is your intention with filing the I-130 for you to eventually immigrate to the US with your wife and child? There are so many gray areas with filing this form in general so you really need to study the instructions for completing the form. Also study everything you can find on I-130 processing on the USCIS website

http://travel.state.gov/visa/immigrants/immigrants_5254.html

There is a great deal of documentation that must accompany the I-130, including copies of legal (notarized) documents for both of you, so make sure you have all of that prepared whether you file from inside or outside the US.

The wait time for just the I-130 to process appears to be 8-9mths. After that is approved, there is a lot of documentation that you will have to provide, so make sure you have that plan organized so that she can gather what she needs while in the US to return to Pakistan.

If ur wife is a residing in pakistan best option is to fill it from pakistan for quick approval! Good luck!
