Hi guys.

Well as you can see from my timeline I applied for my fiance (now my wife) for Fiance visa (I-129F) last Sept. (2011) and we received our NOA2 in Jan (2012). A few weeks later, the NVC sent the documents to the Turkish Embassy. They sent me an email to submit the documents. However, I let my NOA2 expire (Expired in May 2012) because we wanted to marry in Iran as is the native custom and file the CR-1 instead. We married a couple months ago in Iran.

Well now I will be filing for the CR-1, I was wondering if I have to notify the Turkish embassy that I am "OFFICIALLY" canceling my Fiance visa petition? I mean it has been almost a year since we received the NOA2 (around 11 months) and its been 6 months since the NOA2 expired. So the petition has expired (I ASSUME), but I thought maybe I have to "officially" tell them in order to file again for CR-1.

Do I have to tell them or will I be fine just submitting my I-130?

Ok, so should I email the US embassy or NVC? or USCIS?

The referenced application for an immigrant visa went through the

termination process and was destroyed in accordance with INA 203(g). An

alien's registration for an immigrant visa shall be terminated if,

within one year after notification of the availability of an immigrant

visa, the applicant fails to apply for an immigrant visa.

If the beneficiary wishes to immigrate, the petitioner must file a new

petition with U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (CIS -formerly

known as INS). You may contact them at 1 (800) 375-5283 or visit the

CIS web site for additional information at www.uscis.gov.

The problem is I never got such an email. Either from the NVC or the Embassy. Again mine was a K1 visa so I wouldn't expect the NVC to email me.

Should I call the NVC?
