K3 CR1

[orimai 2]

Hey everyone. My I-129F was just approved. From what I understand now it goes to NVC and then to the embassy which takes really very little time, maybe less than a month. We are also waiting for the DS-230 to arrive, it hasnt yet. Both CR1 and K3 processes are going on at once here. Is there anything I need to be concerned about? Is it possible they will generate 2 interview dates or how does that all work? I am thinking that the K3 paperwork (I-129F) will reach the embassy here before we receive and submit the DS-230. How does that affect our case?

I am also thinking that if we can can save at least a couple months time by the K3 finishing up quicker, we are just going to go for it because we really want to get back to the US.

I may have read the guide wrong, but it appears at even this stage in the game, the K3 will get done faster. Anyones input on all this would be great! Thanks all!

After I-129F approved, it will be stuck at NVC for about 2-4 weeks then sends it to US Embassy in Manila where it can be stuck there for 2-3 months just to schedule an interview date.

After you submitted the DS-230, it will take about a month for case to be completed then interview date 3-4 months later.

If you should have two interview dates, take the CR/IR interview.

If you are scheduled for the K3 interview first, and your CR1 file is at the embassy, you might be able to request the interview be for the CR1 instead of K3. smanam just did this at Chennai...
