Success Story: Approval of a DCF Form I-130 from London 

Success Story: Approval of a DCF Form I-130 from London 

Our client, a US citizen serving in the air force, is stationed in the UK with her husband. Because her husband is not a US citizen, but our client is serving in the US military, their family is eligible for military Direct Consular Filing (DCF). The military DCF works as follows; Under certain conditions, the U.S. The Embassy in London may allow a person to file Form I 130, Petition for Alien Relative, directly with the embassy instead of through USCIS in the United States. This process can dramatically shorten the immigrant visa timeline, sometimes reducing it from several months to just a few weeks. Our firm communicated with the US embassy in London, requesting the DCF on the behalf of our clients. The embassy was able to approve the Form I-130 within just two weeks of filing, completing the first stage of the US immigrant visa process. This is a huge success for Blue Lake Law and our clients! We would like to extend our congrats to our client and her husband who is on the way to becoming a US citizen.
