CR2 visa for daughter. When to fly to US?

[pot121 1]

Hi guys,

Last November my daughter got her CR2 visa. And it will expire on April 2013.

My question is, does it matter when she flies to US as long as she gets here before it expires?

Or she needs to be here as soon as possible? Im still saving money for her plane ticket thats why shes not here yet.

Your daughter can come to US anytime before the expiration date of her visa.

May I ask -

1.Did you file the I-130 separately for yourself and your daughter which means that you also paid 2x the amount of I130 ?

2. Did you file the I130 both at the same time ?

3. Did you get the CR1/ and CR2 visa approval at the same time , if 2) was applied at the same time ?

Thanks a lot

Each I-130 requires a separate fee if they are filed at the same time or different times. Each person immigrating needs an I-130. All children unless they are USC require their own I-130 petition even if their parent is immigrating. It is best to send them at the same time so that they are married (joined) at the USCIS and NVC stages.
