Hello guys!

I just want to ask for those who know what's next once I129f gets approved and then I130 gets approved after.

Do we still go for the I129f or this is now automatically converted to CR1?

We were very happy that I129f got approved first but then I130 got approved after a week too so now we're a bit confused.

Thank you in advance! =)

you'll have to wait for casefile intake at NVC , for any further determination.

CR1 is a better bet. You probably will not get a choice anyway.

waiting time? wait - have you read stuff about NVC Doc Intake for CR-1 visa, or no? If no, why no?

you are using wrong language.

you have dual paths for 2 visa types.

No conversion possible.

Actually. I just read this from travel.state.gov - If the NVC receives the approved I-129F petition before it receives the I-130 petition, the NVC will process the I-129F petition.

Crossing fingers still... =)


Thank you for your help =)

Good morning. I believe I am also in the same boat as the starter of this thread. Both of our applications (I-129F and I-130) were approved December 2013. I received both Notices first week of January. We have not received any letter or notice from anybody, US Embassy in Manila, NVC or USCIS saying that our I-129F has been cancelled or what. I checked the status of our applications with ceac.state.gov a couple of weeks ago and is said, I-130 is at NVC while I-129F says "call the consulate where we think our application is being process" (US Embassy in Manila). I called the embassy hotline in Manila and they said that our I-129F is still active and valid. So, we scheduled for an interview (Sept. 5).

My wife just got back from Dubai, where she was working since May of last year, that is why she was only able to start processing her paperworks now. Last notice we received from NVC was telling us to send support documents (Marriage cert, police and NBI clearances, affidavit of support, etc.) I don't care if we have to spend more to adjust her status here. I just want to have her here as soon as possible.

You wait until you can call the NVC to see which file will be processed first. If can go the K3 route, and choose to, you follow the guides for that route (which will be very similar to the K1 route for your country.) If you must or choose to go the CR1/IR1 route, you will follow this wiki: http://www.visajourney.com/wiki/index.php/NVC_Process
