Hello, I am filing CR1 after my K1 refusal. On K1 The reason of denial was CO thought our eligibility was not clearly made in k1. we had our wedding ceremony.May be thats why that thought that. K1 Case is return to USCIS. I now married legally in court and sent k1 withdrawal letter to USCIS.

Now my question is which date should i put in Marriage date in I-130. wedding ceremony date or court marriage date?

What document should I need to load with I-130:

 I am thinking of adding - wedding ceremony pictures , 401 k beneficiary added, bank POD, money sent receipt to my spouse, and marriage certificate and copy of K1 withdrawal letter? 130 + 130A. anything that i need to know.

Thank you

If you have a marriage certificate, I would use that date.

In summary, it took 13 months for approval of the CR-1.  It took 44 months for approval of the I-751.  It took 4 months for approval of the N-400.   It took 172 days from N-400 application to Oath Ceremony.   It took 6 weeks for Passport, then 7 additional weeks for return of wife's Naturalization Certificate..

Follow the instructions as written on USCIS:

https://www.uscis.gov/sites/default/files/files/form/i-130instr.pdf

 

Wedding ceremony date can go in under additional information page as an optional choice. 

 

What’s the money sent receipt? 

For me, I didn’t add anything else they didn’t ask for. I just followed the direction accordingly to the link above.
