I-130 while in immigration court
currently in removal proceedings and recently married a U.S. citizen. I’m going to file the I-130 soon, and I have a master calendar hearing coming up. For anyone who has been in a similar situation, how long did the entire process take for you? I mean from filing the I-130, getting it approved, dealing with the immigration court, and finally getting your green card. Did everything take 1–2 years, or was it faster/slower? Also, if you went through Chicago Immigration Court, I’d really like to hear how long your case took. Just looking for people’s real experiences.
Thanks!!
