I can't really believe this kicking.gif My wife I-130 got approved today. Now, I am wondering how fast things will proceed from now on. I need your feedback for how long things should take from this point. By the way my I-129F which I have just filed less than month ago is still sleepin'. Any ideas here guys? Thanks!

We're in the same boat, I was approved on Monday and have read everything I could get my hands on since then! One thing I would suggest looking into is see how long it takes to get a CR1 interview (usually) in Morocco compared to how long it takes to get a K3 interview. There may be no difference but for me there was a HUGE difference. Also you may want to read CR1 guides the James Shortcut threads

Indeed, many thanks to all of you guys who took the time to respond to my inquiry. I am not sure whether I would still have the opportunity to proceed still with I-129F if ever it gets approved these days? I am wondering what will happen to my I-129F at this point. Any thoughts on this regard?I will definitely take your advice guys and keep you informed.

your I-129F will keep being in the system unless you tell them to abandon it. I'm planning on keeping both going for a while to see what happens. I will keep the I-130 going slower because it's not good for us to have the I-130 make it to the embassy first.. the interview wait is much shorter for the K3. The best outcome is for the K3 to get to the embassy shortly followed by the CR1 which will replace the interview date and time and once approved it will be a much better visa. It's a risk however, if the CR1 gets there first sad.gif If the K3 gets there I'll ask the NVC to return the I-130 to the USCIS so we can continue with the crap we have to do once he enters on a K3 visa. Does this make any sense? I'm so tired and rambling.. feel free to pm me.
