Hello, my wife filed a I-130 petition and on Dec. 13 2012 it was approved, due to the fact that it was some how lost in the mail and never recieved. I had to work and get a extra 405 to pay a dupllicate copy of the approval notice. Now im ready to file for my duplicate and I would like to know if I could also file the I-212 to reenter the U.S because previously before my wife submitted the I-130 I was order voluntary departure twice by Immigration Judge. And I feel somehow the I-212 applies to me if theirs anyone out there that could help me with this matter. I would appreciate it very much thank you! you could also contact me at galindojose_23@hotmail.com thanks once again!

sorry mame how do you post a topic?

It sounds very wicked to be made to pay such an amount of money for a notice that may never have left their office. Its not like they arr doing anything else but to just print out another noticie and mail it to you.

OP I would advice you research well as there has to be a way to go around that fee.

Best wishes.

thank you. do you have any idea of where i can start my research?

so on 12/13/12 my I-130 petition was approved and untile this day I have not received the approval notice...today my wife went to an immigration appoiment to talk with a immigration officer about the matter and the problems are the following:

1. uscis say they sent the notice via US mail

2. we never recevied the approved notice

3. uscis say there is nothing they can do about it and the only way to get a copy of the approved notice is to file an I-824 (approved application)the fee is $405 USD.

my question to anybody out there that can help me out is:

1. can i send an I-912 fee waiver along with I-824(approved application)

I think its not right to pay and extra 405 USD. when I already Paied $420..is there anybody out there that can help me in this matter.

Thank you.

Hello ppl..well my wife is about to sumite the I-130 form and we'er doing it with out any lawyer help this is our fist time sumiting immigration forms...anyway before we sumite the I-130 we would like to clear any doubt..

1. after gathering all the the requierd documents, is there a paticuler way they have to be organized?

2. are 7 affidavits sufficint?

3. can I prepare the affidavits and just have the third partys sign it?

so why is it not a good Idea to file an I-129F is it because I am from Mexico (acording the USCIS website I understan that an I-129F is for a fiance visa but that it could be used as a Spouse visa also called K-3. the spouse then enters the US with a K-3 visa and waits for the I-130 to be aproved)

My wife is going to file and I-130 for me and then file and the I-129f so i could enter the US with a k-3 visa. My question is

1. do we have to include in the I-130 on question 21 that we will file an I-129f

2. can we just advise the service on the cover letter of the I-130 package that we will be looking forward to file an I-129f once we recive the NOA

thank you.
