Our Timeline - an Immigrant Visa holder, Class IR-1
Hello Everyone,

So here goes -
August 10th 2005 - Posted I-130 and G-325A to the California Service Center.
January 23rd 2006 - Recieved notice that I-130 was successful, and our application has now been passed to the NVC.
March 5th 2006 - My wife and I both recieved Choice of Agent forms (DS-3032).
March 6th 2006 - Recieved request for Affidavit of Support fee.
March 13th 2006 - Mailed fee for the Affidavit of Support (I-864).
March 21st 2006 - Mailed back Choice of Agent form (DS-3032).
April 17th 2006 - Recieved request for Filing fees (Fee for DS-230 = $380).
April 20th 2006 - Recieved Affidavit of Support form (I-864).
May 3rd 2006 - Mailed Affidavit of Support form (I-864).
July 22nd 2006 - Mailed Fee for DS-230 to the NVC.

October 3rd 2006 - Police records recieved.
October 10th 2006 - Mailed DS-230 part 1 form.
March 4th 2007 - Recieved interview date from US Embassy, London, UK.
March 26th 2007 - Completed medical examination prior to Immigration interview.
April 2nd 2007 - Completed Immigration interview, and Visa is granted!

Re: Our Timeline - an IR1 Visa holder
Congrats again, C_B!
I'll just nitpick that you actually were an Immigrant Visa holder.. class IR-1, but people have been confused by looking to try and find info for an "IR" or "CR" visa & coming up short at travel.state.gov etc
