Hi everybody I'm new here. I am a US CITIZEN got married overseas in Yemen in January 2014. I filed an I-130 in April 2014. I have been searching all over the web for information about process and time frame when my case will get approved. The more I searched the more confused and helpless I became. Ive seen people say it took them years before there are able to bring there wife to America. Is there anyone here that has went through the process. What can i expect? whats the next step any info will be great.

I have already recieved the receipt for my I-130. But I guess that doesn't matter cause everybody receives that quick anyways

No one can really tell you when only estimates based on others experience. Its a case by case but here is some info that might help a little. I am sure others will chime in after me. Scroll down until you see the petition you filed ie. I-130 https://egov.uscis.gov/cris/processingTimesDisplay.do Or this one for TSC's processing times for I-130's https://egov.uscis.gov/cris/Dashboard/ProcTimes.do

The warmth of true friendship and the love that binds the hearts of husband and wife are a foretaste of heaven. God has ordained that there should be perfect love and perfect harmony between those who enter into the marriage relation. Let bride and bridegroom in the presence of the heavenly universe pledge themselves to love one another as God has ordained they should. {LYL}
