I saw approvals from september filers USC. It only means the TSC is processing September now not june. 😊

Hey, could you please update your profile to say your visa is k-3 and not IR-1. It is throwing off the statistics. When I filtered to complete IR-1 and CR-1 visa petitions, your date in November (which is after my NOA1 date) came up. You might be confusing some people and inducing some unnsessecary false hope! Cheers.

I didn't ask for expedited or anything. In my cover letter for my K-3, I stated I was applying for it to reduce the time physically being apart. Basically I used the verbiage from the K-3 visa paperwork itself.

To be clear, my approval was for IR-1, not K-3. My K-3 was denied because my IR-1 was approved. My profile is accurate.

Hi guys,

 

Not sure if you're monitoring the September and October threads but a lot of the later September and early October applications are getting approved.

 

We are next!

Hi Everyone!

 

So I feel kind of dumb, but as a lot of time goes on, you start overthinking, then you get paranoid 😭. So one thing that confuses me on these forums and timelines is that some people seem to be divided into two groups: K3 or IR-1/CR-1. I just submitted the I-130 form and double-checked with a customer service agent from USCIS via phone and she said that was all I needed to submit was the I-130 and the I-130A as those have to be approved before a K-3 or the IR-1/CR-1 visa would be filled out??? I got my NOA1 for the I-130/I-130A dated as received on November 15th, 2017. Was that all I needed to send to USCIS? Just the I-130/I-130A? Or was I supposed to send another form in as well? I would prefer to just file for the IR-1/CR-1 only anyway. It would be nice if my husband could come by this year (wishful thinking) even though I know he probably won’t be here for the birth of our daughter (yes I’m pregnant 😆). Hopefully I filed everything correctly! Thanks in advance for the responses!
