K-3/4 or I-130 - Husband in Dominican Republic

[els622 0]

Hi,

This is my first post. I got married to my husband, in the DR, on June 18, 2005. I filed the I-130 on July 27, 2005. I got the receipt 10 days later. I filed the I-1129F on 8-17-05. It was approved on 8-19-05. DR posted petition on waiting list 10-12-05. My husband has just moved up to about 14,000 on the waiting list as of February 28, 2006. On January 16, 2006, his I-130 petition was approved by USCIS and sent to NVC. Problem- He has a son. I did not file and I-130 for him as yet. We were planning on them coming to the U.S. on K3 and K4. I am guessing that I can delay action on the I-130 so that we don't have an even longer delay on them coming to the US. I am going to file the I-130 for my stepson right away. Is this ok to do?

Thanks.

Yeah filing the I-130 for your stepson is the right thing to do. It will save time later on for AOS.
