美国移民- 要多久呢?

First of all, I-130 is a general form, you need to be more specific about what is your appication. If it is husband - wife, parent - son/daughter, borther-sister. It makes a lot of difference. It also depend the person that sent in the petition for you, is he/she a US citizen or green card holder. I assume that it is your spouse. It would take about 3-5 years if he holds green card. about 2 years if he is a citizen. They should sent you a receive after they got your appication. After that, you will be ask to finger print and do all those fun stuff. However, if your I-130 is approve, you could go in and out of the US freely, you just cannot stay aboard too long. check the web site, it had all the info you need.

1 Year sounds more reasonable and close to the truth for US Citizen i-130 petition.

現時綠卡申請配偶排期需要5-6年, 現在做緊係2001年的case. 公民申請配偶係冇限額, 大概半年至9個月左右就可以往美國居住, 及取得有限制綠卡, 因為你們結婚不足2年, 當足兩年前3個月就可以向移民局申請轉永久居民綠卡. 資料可以係美國移民局內睇到, 上面果位的資料好唔update.
