why not just do I-824 I mean I don’t know why you are not doing it but if you do it then they will send it to NVC

menuka because it takes from 3 months to 22 month instead of that just refile i-130 is easier and probably gonna be faster

omg you can’t do anything like call uscis and tell them you wanna do outside of USA in embassy or consulate

What makes you think filing I-130 would be faster? Some service centers are taking as long as 3 years to approve a case.

i think when you request(824) uscis to send your approval (-130) to nvc it takes between 2 to 4 months

other reason takes longer between 3-17 months so file another I-130 it’s not necessary

menuka we called 3 times

jasmin because i-824 may take up to 22 months Instead of that i-130 take max 17 months in the worst case

jerry p yea i read that but we aren’t sure

my case approved after 25 months citizens filed for spouse

i-130 ? was it in the pendamic?

yes i130 after I have to file I-824

evey case is different I-130 can take ,7,8 months or 22,23 months

this people are just evil..they could request ans RFE for that i-824 just like they request if you leave something out, but they rather wait to approve it then make you file again so you wait even longer

I wouldn’t advise you to refile i130 a friend of mine waited 5 years for i130 approval ; her wife petitioned him and she is also a USC just do the 824 and wait
