Rahul,
You have to file the I-130 regardless. Then if you want to apply for the K3, you file the I-129F after you have a NOA from your filed I-130.
If you go through DCF, you only file the I-130 locally. There is no need to file the I-129F.
P.S. - I just got my Passport yesterday. It...
Rahul,
I will be gettin my US Passport first
Then I will be going to the Indian Embassy to return my Indian Passport and get my US Passport stamped with the Indian Visa.
I have to do all this in the next 2 weeks, 'cos I leave for India on Dec 10th.
Hi Rahul,
Called the Delhi Embassy. They said that the DCF is very much offered as an option. :)
So, I'll be going through that process next month. They also said, that I should not file the I-130 over here if I'm going to use DCF.
BTW, what other documents besides my IRS tax files, Cert...
Will surely keep you posted Rahul.
As far as the status is concerned... Its kinda weird. I got civilly married in India a couple of months ago. But we are going to have the religious ceremony in December. So I am officially married but not technically... if that makes any sense.
I wasn't...
Yep. I will be going to India in Dec. I need to get my passport first. Will be kicking off that process tomorrow.

Hi Kiran,
I'm in the same boat as u are. I have my Interview/Oath in Newark the day after tomorrow. And I have travel plans early Dec. I will be trying to get my Passport as soon as I get my Naturalization Cert.
I believe that you can expedite your Passport process. The general timeline for...
Thanks Dude. I'll have to figure out which process I have to go by. Rahul on the other thread seems to have more details about this DCF. Lets see how it goes. Besides, when did u file for the N400?
Rahul,
Can they refuse to interview you for the DCF process at the embassy in Delhi? Do you or any of the friends you spoke to have any experience with this process?
I need to file the petition for my wife and am not sure if I should file for the K3 visa or go through this DCF process. What...
DCF details
Dude,
I heard about this DCF through this forum only today. Is DCF a conditional process. Why is it easier to get it?
WHat are its advantages/disadvantages of both?
When did u apply?
So u r waiting on your Naturalization process. Wow!!! We are exactly in the same boat. Are you married, or planning on it? I sent in my N400 last year. I have my final interview next week. Hopefully all goes well.
I intend on filing the I-130 immediately after.

Can you choose which consulate you'd like your application to go to?
Please let me know. Any info. will be helpful. Thanks in advance.
