Got questions?

We have answers to the most popular questions from our customers. If you can't find an answer to your question, please contact us.

What is the current wait time for I-130?

The average processing time for Form I-130 is currently 12 months, as of March 2025.

What is the difference between I-130 and I-130 a?

The primary difference between Form I-130 and Form I-130A lies in their application purpose and the supplemental details they collect. Form I-130 establishes a qualifying relationship, whereas Form I-130A gathers additional background information about spouse beneficiaries.

Can I visit the US if my I-130 form has been approved?

Generally, an approved I-130 petition indicates an intention to immigrate to the U.S., which conflicts with the temporary nature of a visitor visa. Therefore, those with an approved I-130 must wait abroad until their immigrant visa or green card is granted.

What does it mean if I-130 is approved?

We will generally approve your Form I-130 if you can establish a qualifying relationship between you and your relative that allows them to immigrate to the United States. Generally, after we approve the petition, your relative may apply for a Green Card.
