Congrats, doodlebug!

My I-130 was approved, but the I-129 has not been approved yet, so I guess it doesn't necessary come at the same time.

Good luck :)

no they won't come at the same time. They are 2 different visas you applied for. Congrats :dance: :dance: I believe the CR1 visa is the best route too. :dance: :dance: :dance: :dance:
