I'm sorry to hear about ur nephew... Thanks for adding my info to the database. I did not keep a track of all info but I do remember that my I-130 was approved end of Sep 08.

I'm hoping we all get the March interview so life can go on. I feel so stuck :)

So, I get the impression that IR-1/CR-1 interviews are only done in Montreal, Is that correct? If so, it's too bad, as I live one hour from Vancouver consulate. Since both 130 and 129 are approved, I now face the choice of IR1/CR1 verses K3, as It appears that neither of my daughters (17 and 20) want to move down with me to US. The GC and SSN immediately are certainly appealing, but not necessary, as I will continue to work in Canada (bordertown). So I save 500-600 dollars in costs to US govt and spend it on airfare and hotel to Mntrl. Is that a fair comparison?

What are your thought fellow VJers?

Thanks again.
