DCF- New Delhi still process I-130?
Guys,
Anyone with experience of DCF at New Delhi for I-130?
This option is certainly tempting but how safe it is? Is it worth risking K1 route?
Here is my situation-
1. I am Indian national by birth and recently acquired US citizenship through
Naturalization.
2. Ready to file K1 Visa (I-129F) with USCIS in US for my fiancee.
3. Planning to go and stay in India for 4/5 months on Entry Visa.
My question is-
1. Whether I would be eligible to file for I-130 if I got married in India?
2. What is the residency requirement? How many days?
3. If I am eligible, how the residency period is calculated?
(from date of marriage or my date of arrival in India or date of registration with
Foreigner’s Regional Registration Office (FRRO) in India?)
4. Do I need to be employed in India to be eligible?
5. If I am eligible, when do I apply- at the end of my residency period?
6. How long is the processing time at consulate?
I really appreciate to hear back your feedback......
Thanks in advance.
