    Filing I-129F without NOA1...?

    in K-3 Spouse Visa Process & Procedures

    Posted

    Thanks for your advice, I really Appreciated.. Good luck to you...

    Hi PlatanoKIng.

    You need to attach either a photocopy of the Transfer Notice of your I-130 OR the NOA1 of your I-130 (which is also the I-797C) before you file the I-129F. You can't send the I-129F in with just proof that they cashed your check...the Transfer Notice or the I-130 NOA1 are more significant forms of proof.

    The VJ Guides on filing a K3 application is pretty straightforward. My husband and I found it very useful while preparing the I-130 petition. :)

    The Federal instruction guides on an I-129F (the one you download from the USCIS website) tell you how to use that form when you are using it for a K3/K4 application...but not quite...we still relied on the VJ Guides for help.

    Hello everyone!

    Maybe one of you can enlighten me with the following questions:

    1. Is it possible to file the I-129F without receiving the 1st NOA?

    2. What constitute evidence that I have filed form I-130 (IE... Notice of Action Form I-797C, cashed check)

    Read form I 129F Instruction and I can not find clear guidance within the form (Why Am I Not Surprised?).

    Thanks all in advance!

    Jen,

    Thanks for quick response, I found the link that you provided very useful!. I am thinking of letting the I-130 run its course, once again thanks for the advice.

    If I was you, I'd follow the flowchart: http://www.visajourney.com/forums/index.ph...amp;page=k3flow. If you don't, who knows what could happen to your petition but if you're willing to take that chance & have the process take EVEN LONGER, then go ahead and submit the I-129 paperwork. I don't think there is any real instructions as it is used for K3 and K1 petitions. From what I read:

    "USCIS has been administratively closing the I-129F upon approval of the I-130. USCIS, however, is currently reviewing the I-129F/K-3 process."

    If I was to do it all over again, I wouldn't have gone the K3 route. That 6 month window starts the day of your NOA1 from your I-130...if you submit the I-129F, the process basically starts all over again. It is your choice though. Good luck!

    NOA1 not received yet

    This kind of defeat the Legal Immigration Family Equity (LIFE) Act, when you are filing a K3 right after you have file I 130…If you have to wait 1 to 3 month for the NOA1 in order to file the 129F.

    This is very common (lately) - some folks getting NOA1 a week later while others getting them a month (or more) later (doesn't mean you're not being processed in the order your case was received though). :thumbs:

    Thanks everyone for your responses, As of today (June 30) I have not received NOA1....getting kind of nervous.

    Thanks for your prompt response!,

    I went and got a copy (image) of the cashed check on the back of check, I use the number that start with "WCA" but when I try to track it, I get the following message: Your case can not be found at this time in Case Status Online. Please check your receipt number and try again. If you need further assistance please call the National Customer Service Center at 1.800.375.5283.

    Please advice

    Yep, thats standard procedure. If you have access to an image of that check, you can get your receipt number off the back and start tracking it online. :)

    I 130 question

    in Bringing Family Members of US Citizens to America

    Posted

    Hello everyone,

    I am currently in the process of bringing my wife to the US, I am kind of confuse with question # 11 of Form I 130 (Name of of prior husband/wife)...The problem is that I have been marrier twice already.

    My question is as follows:

    Do I enter both of my ex-wife names? or do I enter my last divorce?

    What do I send in with the I 130? The certificate of divorce or the Decreed of divorce or both?

    Thanks, for any assistance.
