hello
For k3 visas (I-130 & I-129F) do they both need to get approved inorder to get the visa or only one approved is enough to get the visa.

Any comments will be higly appreciate
thanks

K-3

No. For K-3, all you need is the approval of the I-129F. Otherwise, if you want to follow on the CR1/IR1 visa then you must wait for the I-130 approval. GOOD LUCK!

You need the I-130 to get an immigrant visa

or

You need the I-129f to get the K-3

if I am not mistaken, eventually you will need the I-130 approved so you can adjust status if arrived on K-3

Out of curiosity, does anyone know if an I-130 approval is needed before one can apply for adjustment of status? Or is a pending I-130 enough?

(Regardless of that, I hope we all have a good week with plenty of VJ members approvals!)

Pending I-130 is enough but it must be approved before the AOS process can complete.

That makes sense.
Thanks for the reply, Pushbrk.
