I got NOA 2 in july for both I-129 and I-130.

In August I paid $470 fee to the NVC. I got NVC letter to send them $470.

In september I filed DS230 for my wife.

After that NVC asked me to send couple of things and I-864 which I sent back earlier this month.

Now my lawyer didn't say anything what she got in the mail from the NVC. I requested to call me and let me know what is going on. She didn't bother to call or email to me to explain things to me. I'm bit frustrated here so I thought I might ask on this forum and find out what is going on with my K3 visa processing.

Any help will be greatly appreciated here

I'm very confused right now. I thought DS230 and I-864 required for IR1/I-130 processing not for K3 processing. My lawyer and her assistant kept telling me that both required for K3 processing. I wanted to go with the K3 and thats why I paid $470 and send them DS230 and I-864. I kept questioning them about that. I hired lawyer so I won't make any mistake and it seems like my lawyer is screwing me or something.

I did some research and it seems like im going for IR1/I-130 not K3...because I filed DS230 and I-864....is that right?

Today she told me that I need to file k3 petition again. I don't get that. Please help me to understand the K3 and IR1 processing so I can tell her what to do on this Tuesday when I meet her.

Please tell me what is my best option right now.

Thanks in advance

Please tell me what is my best option right now. Can I still go for either one or just IR1/I-130? I don't want to file my petition again. I'm missing her very much and to be away from her few more months is not something i want at this point.

Thanks in advance
