My wife was admitted on a K3 visa in Feb 2003. The I - 130 I submitted to the Texas service center has a receipt date of Sep 6, 2001. The Texas service center is currently processing I - 130s for spouse of a U.S. citizen dated June 8, 2001. Since Sep 2001, the Texas service center has only processed about 3 months worth of I - 130s.
I called the INS and was told I have to wait for the original I - 130 to be approved. At the current pace, my wifes K3 visa will expire before the Texas service center gets to my petition.
I thought I was supposed to try to adjust her status as soon as possible to show "good faith", according to one immigration web site.
Iwould appreciate any advice or references in regards to my question.
