How do I cancel or withdraw our K3 and CR1 apps?

[Married_my_love 0]

Is this just a letter writing thing? Should I wait until the app gets to the NVC to cancel the k3?

(our I130 is just sitting in CSC, so I know that one isn't going anywhere fast)

I am concerned as we are now applying for me to get a Canada visa. At first we thought we'd just let them dangle out there and leave our options open, but I am thinking this might not be very smart.

As I've posted, I'm moving to michigan to be closer to him in August and I want him to have NO PROBLEMS entering the US (via land) to help me move. (I would think that would look rather fishy if they looked him up, after he tells them he's help me go that way).

If it is a letter writing thing, do they send you anything *official* to show you withdrew the app? (for future proof if he has trouble at a border?)

I am so happy for you guys but I am also a bit envious as well It's just sort of ironic that you guys have your I-129F NOA2 and you don't need it, and all of us poor slobs who are waiting with baited breath can't seem to get a break from the INS Giants. May I have the "rabbits foot" that you guys have

Good Luck Guys

I know I almost felt stupid posting this question, knowing I'm holding something everyone wants. Wish I could cross out the names and put yours in

sorry to bump this,

but does anybody have an answer to my original question? how do I cancel our petitions/apps?

For the K3 I would contact the embassy to let them know you won't need the visa anymore. You can probably call and ask them what exactly to do.

For the I-130 you can call the USCIS and ask but you know how unhelpful they are. I'd write a letter explaining the situation and that should be good.

Where is your K3 right now? At NVC or embassy? If at NVC just call them and let them know. They are pretty squared away.

I'm sorry not to be able to give you any concrete advice.

Good luck and I'm happy you guys made your decision and are going to be happy campers in Canada

I would do all of the above, plus send emails to the NVC and the Embassy/Consulate in Canada.........you want to stop this thing in it's tracks..........I've read accounts where applicants try to stop what they believe to be a fraudulent spouse and the visa is issued anyway, because It's just one letter in a sea of paperwork. Attack it from all angles. Good Luck.

We just got the NOA2, so it is heading to the NVC. I will give it a little time to get there and then call.

How are you getting on with this?

I got an email from NVC say to mail them a formal request to withdraw, including copy of NOA2

I realized last night that since I only mailed our Solemnization Record (canada non-legal marriage cert) in with both our apps that I'll be getting an RFE for both, so they can't go too far in to the system without my response with our real marriage certificate. I was told by another poster that NVC wouldn't send it to the embassy until they receive the marriage certificate -

Excellent, you now have a dialogue with NVC and assurance that you're doing it correctly. NOA2 with missing information! How did you achieve that?

I was told by another here doing canadian/u.s. that I could submit the "souvenier" certificate you get the day you get married and get the app all the way to the NVC, then I'd get RFE'd at that point... because it takes 12+ weeks to get your real marriage cert. when you get married in Canada, you can file to get the ball rolling knowing you'll be RFE'd.
