K3 & I-130 Approved

[unknown001 0]

My wife's I-130 & K3 both are approved and infact we didn’t send the choice of agent for I-130 when we find out that K3 has arrived the Embassy in Islamabad-Pakistan after approval by USCIS. We filled the forms and send all the required doc's to the embassy and K3 interview is now scheduled for Nov-02. We still have not send the choice of agent for I-130 thinking that she will get her K3 visa on Nov-02nd and then she will comes here in USA and we will file the adjustment of status.

Question: Is that the right thing to do or should I still send the choice of agent for I-130…if I do then I have to send the $ 400.00 fee for DS230. I was thinking that she will come to USA on K3 and we will file adjustment of status and this way we don’t have to sent the 400.00 fee for DS230. Please guide me if I am doing the right thing or either way I have to pay that $400.00….i mean either she do the adjustment of status or send the DS230 fee. Please help.

Thanks,

hey go for cr1 and pay $400 and $70 for the i 864 and ds230 bcz that is cheaper than k3 visa, if u trying to save the $470 now but in the end when she comes here u will have to pay more to get green card issued, that is my opinion but wait for others to give u better options. good luck. abby n sheryl

I agree and that is more than $470 . and the $1010 is due within 90 days of arrival.
