Filed I-130 But Don't Think I Should Have

[Melissa and Keith 4]

My husband moved here,and we got married in February 2022. He got his green card last October. I had forgotten that I had also filed the I-130 form until I got an email update saying it was being worked on. I had filed it over a year ago when we started working on his change of status. I don't know why I thought at the time that I had to send in that form. All the paperwork was so confusing, as everyone knows. Now I'm freaking out because I'm afraid they will think we were trying to play the system or something and that he'll end up having to go back to England. I tried many times to get a live agent by calling the USCIS phone number, but nothing works. 

 

Looking to the group here to see if anyone else may have some experience or advice. Thanks in advance.

Apart from mistakenly filing the I-130, what other forms did you file as part of your husband's AOS package?

 

No one's coming to deport your husband. Mistakenly filing the I-130 was more of a waste of time, money and energy.

I had forgotten that I had also filed the I-130 form ( what do u mean by this)

just to be clear are u saying husband came to the US with K1 and then you did AOS but u file i-130 even though u he didnt need to because he already got i-129f approved?

Relax....Not an issue....other than you paid for an I-130 you didn't need.

Correct, I did the I-130 first I think before I realized it was a change of status form that we needed. He had already come over on the K-1 visa.

Thanks. I think I remember saying I think we paid that for nothing, but so much water has gone under the bridge since then that I literally forgot all about the I-130.
