Hi everyone, firstly we're grateful finding this community. We've used many resources on this site so far and figured it best to share and join in the forums. We only just submitted the I-129F last week and are waiting for the first NOA.

 

Hoping to ask a few questions that are particular to our situation in case others have had experiences with the same:

1. Can we continue to have her travel to NYC from Shanghai on her R Tourist visa? She's been to the US many times already and we would like to see more of each other in between this long process. Will travelling frequently between the approval process affect our chances in any negative way?

2. Her father is also from Shanghai and is in the process of waiting for his Green Card. He's married to a US Citizen. Could we possible leverage this fact at all, or even go about a more expeditious, alternative path?

 

Thank you all in advanced.

Just to share my story:
