I'm generally not a patient person but if there's one lesson this process teaches, it's patience. Started in Jan and my interview is next week, you DO get there in the end! ;)

Ouch! This is really outside of the general spirit of this thread. Let me first say that this process isn't exactly linear. I'm speaking as someone who filed back in January and have seen many people...

I didn't realise they did criminal checks on the foreign spouse at this stage, surely that would eliminate the point of the police certificate at the second stage? No wonder it all takes so long.

Well, any criminal record will show on the police certificate. But there are other "hits" or lists that you don't want to appear on.

You'll def get an approval or denial letter...though thankfully I don't know what an I-130 denial looks like! He means not everyone gets a notice that the I-130 has been accepted and is being...

Welcome. Don't freak out, though I know that is much easier said than done when it's something so important to you. Not everyone receives a letter notifying of the I-130 acceptance but your...

I think the reference might be to case numbers always being available for the spouse of US Citizens but other people (siblings etc) might have to wait for a case number to become available. That's...

Re: Emotional support... no specific question.

It took 150 days for our I-130 approval. No RFEs. But we were part of a batch sent to Rome for processing.

Yep, I'm a Jan filer who went to Rome. I did delay 1-2 weeks sending back the applicant readiness. Who would have thought after 6 months the husband wouldn't be ready to send me the forms! xx

Re: Emotional support... no specific question.

I agree, when my husband and I first met back in 2004 we sent emails (of course), postcards and letters. And whilst emails can be printed or kept electronically, I do tresure the letters. Inlcuding...

Re: Emotional support... no specific question.

Hi Nica, I feel like I can relate to your post. The best I can say is that it is a process and as time goes by you adjust. Of course, you never stop missing the person you love but eventually you...
