canceling I130 to file DCF

[marlaandalex 0]

We are planning to cancel our I130 filed with USCIS to file through DCF. We meet the criteria. It seems like there are other people who have done this.

For those who have, on your I130 when you refiled, C.16 asks if you have been though immigration proceedings before. Did you put yes or no?

I am not sure - but I would recommend you contact the consulate that would process your DCF and ask them directly- they will be the best source of info. Though I'm sure one of our wiser members will have more to say.

Good luck and welcome to DCF!!!! L.

Ireland sends the I130 on to London and the woman I spoke to there didnt know the answer. We cant call the London embassy because their visa line can only be called from within the UK. USCIS told us they caouldnt give us an answer on how to fill out the form and to seek legal advise.

If I understand correctly, you're asking whether or not filing the I-130 is considered "immigration proceedings", right? Proceedings are things like Removal, Exclusion/Deportation, Rescission, or other Judicial Proceedings, not filing a petition.

EDIT - So if he has been through anything like that, then you put "yes", if he hasn't you put "no". But I'm guessing you're not asking whether or not it's okay to omit something like that.

In question D part 2, you will put "yes" and give the details of the first I-130.

And again Margot beats me to the punch!!!! kidding.

Indeed, those are "immigration proceedings", what you are doing is filing petitions (though my knowledge is limited and I will not pretend to be a know-it-all). i do have a question: how come you're applying in Ireland while you live in Germany? Maybe I got it all wrong - gimme a break, it's monday

Good luck, L.

Sorry

They're filing in London actually and they're currently living in Ireland. It's just that he's German. She hasn't said why they're in Ireland, but as you probably know it's easy for EU citizens to move around to different EU countries.

Did I mention we met in Spain? And i speak neither spanish nor german? That's why we are in Ireland. Between english and beer, we speak the same language.

Thank you so much for those posts! That answers the questions perfectly. I was getting stuck because of the recission option, wondering if that was what i had done with the withdrawal. But you have all cleared it up and we will be able to send it out on Monday. YaaaY!

No kidding! Happens a lot in VJ - I was born in Mexico, my husband is a USC, we both came to Canada for graduate schooling (which was not a first choice for either of us but our professors got transferred here), met online, and got married. Talk about international relations at its best!!!

Good luck marla and alex!!!!

Yeah, we thought we had a pretty amazing history together when around our regular old friends. But just looking at this website, you realize there are so many extraordinary love stories out there. (btw, hope you both are enjoying canada) Its great to be a part of the group. I do think we have our own unique bit- we lived in a two person tent in an orange grove for 3 months after we met. The orange grove part was pretty cool. As for the tent, we know after that challenge we can survive marriage.
