I know you are feeling lost. But trust me, you can do this. Find something to keep you busy, a hobby. And use this time to talk with him everyday through messages and FaceTime or Skype. It will make your relationship stronger. You just have to work at it. It's going to be the hardest thing you ever do. But nothing worth it is ever easy. Any relationship can make it under normal conditions, but it takes two very special people who know what their worth is to make it through this. You will learn more about each other with every day and be so much stronger. And when all else fails, remember that the alternative is to give up. And at least with me and my husband, that was never an option. We have been married since September 20, 2013 and I haven't seen him in 7 months. It's torture. But we know that we just don't have a choice. You are strong enough for this. Appreciate that you are given the opportunity to have a special relationship, and not an ordinary one. Best of luck to you and be strong.

I am filing an I 129F for my wife. We already have our receipt of application from the I 130. We are just slightly confused as the form is all based on a fiancé and the instruction form is all related to a fiancé too. So confused as to what info we actually have to include in the pack

Back ground info

Both live in UK now, I am a US citizen from birth, been married for almost 6 years, have 2 children who already have their US passports. We are wanting to move to the US permanently and ASAP

Many thanks for any help / advice in advance

It is okay to file the 129f, despite being married. You'll see on the form that there is a place for the date of marriage. It's confusing, but it's acceptable. I've already filed everything. Let me know if you have any questions. I'm NOT an expert at all, but experience is a little help. Good luck!!

I'm sorry, but the information that you gave here are very confusing. Your relative is already married and filed for I-129F. This petition only for a couple who plan marries in the US a.k.a K-1 visa (fiance(e) visa). But also you said about a K-3 visa and actually is correct for a married couple but most of times on VJ, people always mentioned this specific visa is obsolete and they will en-route your application to a spousal visa.

If your relative's husband wants his wife pursues a K-3 visa, besides I-129F he also has to file I-130 altogether (someone can stand corrected me if I'm wrong). To answer your another questions, for I-129F processing time they only give an estimate about 5 months which means you are still in "normal timeframe".

The big concern is that if your relative's husband IS really filed for I-129F in fact they both are already married and if USCIS or the US embassy in Islamabad found out about the wedding, the chance will get denied is very likely.

I was told by USCIS that is acceptable to file the I-129f despite already being married. There is actually a place on the form to list if you've already gotten married. Hopefully, this won't be an issue.

Hi everyone....I am in the process of filing for a visa for my husband in Morocco. We married in September 2013. When I returned, I was advised to file the I-130 first, then once the I-130 was accepted and I received the 797 (Notice of Receipt), to then file the I-129f/K3 form. The I-129f/K3 is for unmarried couples, however the form actually has a space to list if you are married. It's confusing, but it's correct. The I-130 must be filed first, but there are significant delays in getting this one approved, usually a year or more. However, the I-129f/K3 form only takes approximately 5 months to process. You only pay for the filing fee for the I-130. Whichever gets processed first, the other is simply revoked. It's possible, I'm told, but VERY rare that the I-130 would get approved first. I'm about 2 weeks shy of 5 months and hope to get the approval soon. I hope this helps you. Best of luck to you all!
