Congratulations!!!!! :dance: :dance: :dance:

xcs: which one are u going to take? what's next to do? geeee im still confused about this processing things...

Right now I have no choice than taking route K because my stepson's I130 is still pending. If his I130 gets approved, I will see how CIS (or NVC? not sure which one) handles my I130s, retain or forward. Forwarding?-great! Retain? Hmmm $400, not a small amount , got to think about it. I'm still waiting for the paper notice for I130.
