I have a question about my NOA 2's

[MHS 0]

Hey everyone, I have a question I would love if someone can help clarify it for me. I have read here on the forums that when you submit the I129f and the I130 that the USCIS will hold the I130 until the spouse comes here to adjust status. I heard that on the I130 NOA 2 that it will say something about the spouse is already here and will adjust status while the I129f NOA 2 says it will be forwarded to NVC.

I looked at my NOA 2's for the I129f and the I130 and they both say they have been forwarded to the NVC on November 8th, 2007 and the I130 doesnt say anything about USCIS holding it until we do our AOS. What I'm asking is that have they both been sent to NVC since it has stated it and hopefully I can go with the CR1 instead of the K3 so when Hassan goes for his interview hopefully it will be the CR1 interview and he can come here on a greencard and we wont have to deal with the AOS and the new fees? Thanks for taking the time to read this and hopefully someone can respond that has some kind of knowledge about this. Take care.

I think, I-129F and I-130 are independent of each other. If CR-1 and K-3 go to the Embassy about at the same time, then Embassy cancels K-3 and goes with CR-1. If you don't want to pursue K-3 while it is in NVC, you can cancel it by writing.

I am sure, others will advise too.

If any way possible stick with the I-130. If NVC did receive it you should be receiving paperwork relating to it soon.

At the same time the I-129F will keep moving and will be sent to your embassy.

You are in a GOOD situation as you can choose which later on.

K3 interview will probably occur sooner.

At the same time a bit longer wait for the CR-1 will pay off in the long run.

Wish we'd have been more patient and stayed with the CR-1.

We went thru hell and cost us a LOT of money adjusting status for the K/3.

Very interesting Melissa. You can call NVC and use the automated system anytime to see if your I130 has been received. You should start trying and see if it was indeed sent or a mistake in the NOA2 for the I130. You can also call NVC and talk to an operator to see if the I129F made it to and out of NVC.

The public notice about forwarding only the I129Fs to NVC and holding the I130 for K3s can be found here.

They announced the change last year, but have had some trouble implementing it fully early on (especially with linking the petitions). Yours were sent together and approved together so this would be very strange if they can't follow their own policy here, but you never know. Good luck

Thanks for your responses everyone, I will definently pursue the CR1 if I'm able to, I don't want to have to hassle with the headaches of doing the AOS once Hassan gets here.
