i-130 approved before i-129f

[Asif 0]

Hi all,

I have a question My i-130 is already approved but I am still waiting for i-129f to get approve. I called USCIS one rep said that once i-130 is approved they do not continue with i-129f. I called again next day, rep lady said you have to wait for i-129f to get approve. I am kind of confuse which rep is right.

The first one has it backwards. The second one is essentially correct. There is nothing you can do to speed up your I-129F but the I-130 will continue as long as you respond to requests from NVC or use the NVC Shortcuts.

Since your two petitions didn't get approved together, you have two horses in the race. You can keep them both running or abandon the I-130 and wait for the I-129F to pursue the K3 visa.

If you're married to your home country then wait for your I-130. If your're engaged then take your fiancee visa I-129F. Forget the other's that don't apply to you.

Good luck

Pugnacious,

Asif already correctly filed both an I-130 AND an I-129F for his spouse. The I-129F is also used to petition for a K3 visa for a spouse. It is not just for K1 fiance visas.
