Thank you so much.

Hi, I am US Citizen since 2010. Got married in India, Dec '11. Filed the I-130. Finally the visa, CR-1, was granted after 16 months. In these 16 months, the marriage has been a struggle. I've requested her to not come here asap till we figure out something but it looks like it may not happen...

Hi, Filed the I-130 in early Jan 2012. Filed the I-129 in late Jan. Seems like the I-130/CR1 process is coming along, albeit slowly. May be another 2-3 months left in the CR1. The 129f guys wanted some more stuff like G325A etc. Should I even bother with the 129F route? Or should I pursue both...

Thank you.

talking about India. Thanks.

Hi, Just wondering about the police certificate/clearance, and the format of it. Anyone know about it? Can I find it anywhere on the web? Who is supposed to issue it? The topmost police official in the small town or somebody commanding a district? Does it have to be notarized? Thank you. kaashi

Thank you. Didn't know of any official waiver but I did write an application and submitted the copies of the past correspondence with the USCIS. Hope that is sufficient. It's been 3 1/2 months since filing the I-130, and I 129f, just waiting for the approval for the case to go to the next stage...

Hi, I got married last month, Dec 2011, in India. Filed an I-130 ten days ago. Got the receipt, I-797C, from the USCIS. Now I am filing the I-129f. Seems pretty straightforward, except I had filed for a K-1 for someone else in 2010 which had got approved but then I had to retract it since the...

thanks Mr. Ghori. Just got back from India. Have another question for the forum which I will post in a new thread. kaashi

Hi, Just wondering which of the above mentioned forms are necessary for the spouse to have for the interview for the spousal visa. Or shall I just have both filled out and ready? akash

Yes, I do realize that the I-130 filing comes before the I-129F. Thank you for your response. Anyway, the marriage comes before all this and then these technical things come into play. We'll see whatever happens. Thanks again. kaashi

Thanks BigJoe for your 2 cents. I only want to tell them the truth and hope for some miracle on their part, that I had obtained a K-1 for a fiance last year, was approved, but the engagement fell apart so the K-1 was retracted; that is there any chance they might give me a break and process the...

Thank you Sir, as always. No harm in trying. Will get back to you if I need something. Thank you.

Hi, Getting married in Dec 2011. I am a US Citizen. Planning on applying for the K3 (I-130) while I am in India at the Embassy in Delhi. A friend pulled it off somehow and his wife was able to come over in just 3 months. I would probably not be allowed to file at the Consulate directly since I...

Thank you Sir. kaashi

Thanks Mr. Ghori, 1) I hope I get this right: So we file the I-130, 129f, G 325A etc to get the K3. The spouse comes here in 8-10 months or however long it takes. We don't file for Adjustment of Status once she comes here. K3 is valid for 2 years. When the IR1 call comes from Delhi, the...

Thank you guys for all your help. May I please ask TripleCitizen to explain the K3 and the CP route. A friend filed at the Embassy in Delhi and got lucky that they accepted his application without establishing residency and his wife came over in 4-5 months. One of his friends got lucky...

Hi, I have read some of the stuff and I feel silly in asking but what is the difference between IR1/CR1 and K3? I have read the different types of visa at the following link and still can't quite get a clear picture except about the basic stuff that one takes longer and costs less etc etc...

Thanks guys. Will ask he friend further and look into it. akash

Hi, A Citizen friend said that he went to India, got married, and filed all the necessary papers, in the US Embassy at Delhi instead of filing them here. So they cut the time it takes for all kinds of checks here, and the wife was able to come here within 4-5 months. True, in general...
