Hi all!

My I-130 case finally approved!  Took 124 days in total :)  Now we just need to get the interview over here sorted!


Thanks for all the help from everyone! :)

Congrats !!!!!!! Feels good, yes?

It took 2 weeks for our I-130 to be approved... My fiancee was here in NY when we applied. He had to wait until he got back home to England to fill out the next set of papers. He also filed for a police report and it took 6 weeks for it to arrive. We just got our American Embassy in London appointment for Feb 8>>> took about 6 weeks from the time he filed the paperwork in the UK to get the appointment. Now more waiting... Our wedding date is July 28- when is yours????

Im so happy for you; this whole process is unreal and I feel for anyone who has to go thru it.  :-*

Wow!  2 weeks to be I-130 approved?!?  How on Earth did you get such a fast processing time??  And I thought you only filed an I-130 *after* being married?  Before being married you normally file an I-129F for K1 or K2 visa status, don't you??

Thanks!
