No ILs yet. Excited!

Just to add info:

1. You cannot get married before BF leaves for the US. He was petitioned as an unmarried son, so he has to maintain his unmarried status until he receives his green card.

2. BF cannot file for K1/Fiancee visa. Only US citizens are allowed to file for that type of visa. BF will not qualify to be a US citizen until after 5 YEARS of being an LPR/Green Card Holder.

3. After BF receives his green card, he can immediately return to the Philippines to marry you.

4. After getting married, BF returns to the US to file i-130 for you. You and your child will be under the F2A category (Spouse and Child of Lawful Permanent Residents). Waiting time is 2-3 YEARS. To date, its 2 years & 5 months, depending on the Visa Bulletin's movement.

You can refer to my signature.

Very well said apple21.

Point of advice: You should NEVER marry your BF before he goes US. His visa will be automatically lost once he got married to you before leaving.

Being away from your each other is a very big sacrifice that both of you have to give. I have Been there. Good luck to your journey kabayan!

My journey is about to end. PD is Sept 22, 2010. Hopefully we will get our IL this week.

God bless. Happy holidays!

Hope we will get our IL next week. PD is Sept 22, 2010.

I also paid $404, I cant believe that the i130 payment dropped tremendously! And now i have to pay $165 great! I guess thats nothing as long as they let me join my husband very soon!

You are so sweet dear. How I wish I am your husband. Lol. Keep praying. You will get your PD soon.

I wish, hope, pray, beg for them to send out IL next week!! :crying:

Yes dear i think they will send IL maybe dec 26-30 just like last month. Have faith. Btw, what is your PD again?

Really? Have you checked if your PD is really april 2011?! I mean you might have confused it with other dates (e.g. Case complete) maybe your PD is really earlier than april 2011.

Did your wife filed for US citizenship? Maybe it was upgraded to IR-1?

I think 2-3wks movt. So that would be oct 8-15.

It will help the GC holders.

But remember this bill does not pass in Senate because democrats favor a bill that includes illegals as well. Obama already opposed already because democrats playing vote bank politics. They wanted to include all illegals- you know what happened in recent elections.

So stay calm and dont hope for any positive news from Hill reg.immigration

Agree. This was passed by Republican-dominated House but will definitely be struck down by the Democrat-controlled Senate. This was opposed by President Obama as well because they think a comprehensive immigration reform is what they need.

My prediction for FEBRUARY 2013 is OCTOBER 1, 2010.

I think we are really done for January.

PD is sept 22. We are now next in line.

I think they are not yet finish sending out IL. There are still whose pd is earlier than sept 22 who still doesnt have their IL. So im still hoping. My PD is Sept 22. @,@

Guys you all are wrong! There is an applicant whose pd is 22 sep. and got his or her IL so Vb is surely beyond the 22 sep. isn't it?

I dont know how. I cant understand whats on the univision site u r saying. I just hope i get my IL. Been waiting for my life to begin. ?

Hope it will reach Oct 1. Please. PD is Sept 22. No IL yet. ?

Off topic: Can the one being petitioned cancel the petition? If yes, how? Thanks!

Waiting. PD is Sept 22,2010. Hope to get IL this december. What do u think guys?

Sept 22 -oct 1. Im hoping for oct 1. Pd is sept 22,2010. Expect for the worst, hope for the best. ☺

I think it will be Sept 1 2010 but I am praying for Oct 1.

Yes thats possible! 2 days after my case was upgraded, I decided to hve a advance medical. I am a nurse in PI exposed to different kinds of communicable diseases. Thats why I did it in advance just to be I won't undergo "sputum exam" I just brought a COPY OF NOA2,2X2 PIC,PASSPORT AND COPY , PAYMENT AND A PEN. And my medical went smooth

No problem po kabayan

whoa! i never thought that medical exam could be done in advance? so theoretically i could do it now? how long is the validity of the result? thanks kabayan!

Hello! after 2 weeks i received my INTERVIEW APPOINTMENT (packet 4). GOOD LUCK

Hi again. Im confused about your "advance medical exam".. Is that possible? I mean can you have your medical exam done even if you dont have the interview letter yet? Because as you said you received your interview letter 2 wks after it was upgraded to IR1 but seeing your timeline you had your medical exam the day after you upgraded? Thanks kabayan!

I'm going for September 1, 2010 as well. Then I'll be next in line. This is getting exciting! I just hope and pray that VB movement will keep its pace. No slowing down or stopping now! All fingers both in my hands and feet are crossed!

PD 22 Sept 2010

We will get our interview letter by december! Yahoo! PD Sept 22 2010 also.

Hello there. Same case tau. Hubby applied for citizenship February 2012 became USC June 27,2012 to be exact. He upgraded my case right after his oath on the June27th. By sending a Upgrading letter with a copy of his naturalization certificate to NVC. I was upgraded to IR/CR1 category on July 16,2012. So I waited 2weeks and 5 days (?)

Please refer to my journey below this message. Andyan lahat ng details =) just pm me if u have other questiions.

Hi there kabayan. How long did it take for your interview letter to be sent to you from the time you upgraded your case to IR1? Thanks!

when did ur spouse became a US citizen?

Hello kabayan. My wife just filed for her citizenship. Waiting for interview..

My question is: once she became a US citizen and then upgrade my F2a visa to ir1. how long would it take? I am already case complete in my f2a petition. (PD is Sept 22, 2010).
