Looking at One Heart's timeline and their comment, it seems they finally decided to try the K3 route and it was just in time to be paired with the I130 that was sent way back in April. Seems like the luck of good timing :thumbs:

However, considering the USCIS have a backlog of petititions (enough to apparently fill a semi's trailer) and are very late with even cashing cheques... for your petition to have been processed into their system and also to have reached the hands of someone who could approve it within 6 weeks seems more like a USCIS-miracle at this point. You should thank whoever is looking out for you :)

Congratulations! You have to be very happy :thumbs: It is a big luck with USCIS. For me seems unbelievable.

By the way - according to me it must become a practice for USCIS to approve family based petitions in two weeks or in a month.

Yes, it is hard to believe. What exactly did you see that gave you this impression? If you received any kind of notice, what did it say exactly?

On September 13, 2007, we mailed you a notice that we have approved this I130 IMMIGRANT PETITION FOR RELATIVE, FIANCE(E), OR ORPHAN. Please follow any instructions on the notice. If you move before you receive the notice, call customer service.

On September 13, 2007, we mailed you a notice that we have approved this I129F PETITION FOR FIANCE(E). Please follow any instructions on the notice. If you move before you receive the notice, call customer service.

Cool. Evidently the I-129F got joined to your I-130 just in time to be approved together. This should mean only the I-129F gets forwarded to NVC however. Does your I-130 approval notice address that with a statement about your wife adjusting status in the US?

I think your very lucky to escape the black hole so fast. I think they probably misplace a box with your file in at and it was processed so fast by mistake. Lucky you, congrats!!!!!!!
