Hello,

Please advise about the I-129f revision I used. The form said (Rev. 05/23/2006) and Expires 12/31/2006.

I mailed it to the Nebraska Service Center Friday AM, January 19th. I viewed this from the USPS tracking facility:

"Your item was delivered at 12:51 AM on January 22, 2007 in LINCOLN, NE 68501."

Now I see the new I-129 posted that expires 1/2010. I've seen other references that the old form(expires 12/31/2006) can be submitted up to 30 days after it's expiration date. Did I send an outdated I-129f? Am I misconstruing the 30 day "grace period?"

Also, following the USPS notice of my I-129 being received on Monday, January 22 12:51 AM:

1) When I can expect my $170 check to clear?

2) the NOA1, or

3) RFE?

Thanks again!

George

Thanks Fwaguy,

I'm a bit eager to get the ball rolling with my fiancee visa. :)

Is it too late after filing from Michigan to move to Vermont and re-file? :)

I have no experience in this, but I did read one poster did this and VSC saw the other filing in the system and simply sat on it.
