Petition my daughter

[Glenish 2]

Hi I'm newbie here, and I hope somebody can help me. Does anyone here already petitioned their 8year old child... How long was the process of her visa? I am GC holder and my husband is U.S citizen. 

 

Thank you very much!

have your usc spouse petition for her it will be a lot faster. as for how long it is the same time as a cr1 so you ca look at the tracker.

Agreed. The USC can petition for her as an IR-2/CR-2. It will take 10-12 months or so on average.

 Thank you for your responds.  So, we go with the CR1 and not I-824?

It's the I-130 still.

I think a follow to join,I-824, request for action on an approved petition may be quicker than I-130. Anyway, that's what we have done. Filed in December and paperwork already sent to Texas service center. Now the wait ! Texas is very slow, but you are in California,yours should move more quickly. Good Luck !!

PS, You and not your husband would file on your approved I-129f petition. Hope this helps !

  If you came on a K1 or K3  follow to join is an option assuming you named the child on your paperwork.

I could be mistaken, but i believe the child does not have to be listed on the I-129 petition to follow. We will see.

All children should be named on the 129F whether they are follow to join or staying in their country.
