We got our NOA on our I-130

[sowens 0]

We got our NOA for our I-130. The form says recieved 4-3-06 and notice date is 4-5-06. So my question is now can I file for the I-129f? And if and when that is approved whats the next step? Will my husband be able to join me here in the States? So many questions, my appologies, I just dont want to mess anything up! Thank you to those who have been responding to my questions and thanks in advance to those who respond to this one.

Hi, Congratulations

I am a few days behind you I sent my packet on 4-3-06 they received it 4-5-06 but I am still waiting for the NAO1.

Inregards to your question:

Yes you can now file the I-129F, when it is approved it will be left to you spouse and the foreign embassy to complete the proces for the K3 visa (the infamous interview process-police certificate medical etc...) Follow the guides in assembyling your I129F send it out and wait until the second NAO on it before you send you husband the required things for the interveiw.

Your husband will be able to join you here in the States after the interveiw-but only if he was approved for the visa.

If I am wrong someone will be along to add or correct me.

Good luck on your journey and congrats again.

Thanks Meddy and Desperate, I appreciate the help, also on the bottom of the form it says that additional info needs to be sent to Cali service center, are they changing my service location?

I-130's sent to Nebraska & Texas are forwarded to California to be processed!!......as only Vermont & California are now the only 2 service centers that process the I-130

Hi sowens, I too am in the same place, having sent the I-130 at the end of March and gotten the first NOA. I'm now assembling the I-129F and waiting for my husband in Toronto to sign and date his G325a bios. It's a bit overwhelming, but if you've already done the I-130, the next round is fairly similar and less stressful. So just do the paperwork and stay calm, because it will be awhile before he can join you.

My question to more experienced people is this: where's the information on what my husband (and sowen's) will need for the U.S. Consolate interview? How can we prepare in advance, especially if he never had vaccinations except for travel? He was born in the Azores Islands and kids were not routinely vaccinated there. What about health and police records? Many thanks.

My husband is from Russia, I just went to the US Embassy in Russia web page, they have all that information in detail in both languages, pretty convenient. I even emailed them a few times when I had a Q.

I hope they are as helpful in other countries:))

Best of luck

Hi jersey girl, thanks, we will be sending off our I-129f, my husband sent his G325a's in the post and I am currently waiting on them, as soon as I get them its round 2 for us. I know its gonna be some time, I'm just very impatient, LOL. Anyways, I have found alot of useful inof on the guides tab on this page, and yer wan was right about the embassy websites, you can find some info there. Since we are at the same stage in this process good luck to you and your husband!
