If in the interview letter it says "Preference category: IR1", it means my visa will be IR1 or at the POE the officer decides if IR1 or CR1? (we will have 2 years of marriage in July 2007 but I intend to fly to the States in June)

IR1 is the visa category. Yes the POE officer will decide if you receive 2 year or 10 year.

Adriana,
The same thing happened with Daniel's visa. It says Category IR-1, but he will get a CR-1 since we will have been married for less than two years when he enters the States with the visa. If you enter in June, you'll get the CR-1, and then you'll have to file the application to remove conditions as soon as you get there.

Too bad...because your two year anniversary is so close.

But at least you'll be back with your sweetheart. good.gif

Thank you all! I prefer to remove conditions later than to wait another month far away from my love. whistling.gif
Mary G.
Adriana,
Just reread my post--I gave you false information. You won't have to file to remove conditions until ninety days before your two year anniversary of entering the states with your CR-1 visa. Geez...sometimes I respond too quickly and then realize I've given wrong information. Maybe you knew this already, though.

Ah well...it's good you won't have to file any more applications for almost two years! smile.gif

Sorry for the misinformation. unsure.gif

Mary
