Hello everyone!

 

I am completely new to this. I tried reading many forums as I could in regards to this subject, but noticed it's not the most talked about subject on here. When trying to look on USCIS' website, I felt I couldn't enough information as to how to write the letter or even a specific mailing address to send to withdraw my application. 

 

The thing is my fiancé and I plan to simply get married in Japan and skip the long processing times so that I can petition for a spouse visa instead. We thought it would be better dealing with it together rather than dealing with long distance :) 

But now I'm concerned if it would affect him in any way since I previously petitioned for a K1 visa? 

 

And I'm not sure if I even sent it the correct address?? Which is also frustrating us :(

I had

P.O BOX 30111

Laguna Niguel, CA 92607-0111 

as the address on the Notice of Action I last received by mail. Would this have been correct?  

 

It's been 2 weeks since I sent it (priority mail, usps) and our case on the website is still the same. Should I be worried? 

 

Any help will be greatly appreciated! :)

I think it will be fine.  In addition, once you marry, the petition will be voided anyway.  I'm sure you know the spousal visa processing time is pretty long, too.  Good luck.  It will not affect a spousal visa case.

There is no drawback to doing that, but it will not measurably change the time it takes for him to get a visa.
