Usually they do that when there is a manpower issue, and another office is less busy. As they indicated, they are sending you a notice that explains the reason.

Your cousin will need to submit an I-130 petition on his behalf to get the process started after they have been married. If he enters the US legally, he can also apply for adjustment of status on form I-485.

Sponsoring foreign spouse for K-3 and her dependent child for K-4

Brian Lincoln Aust
Answered by attorney Brian Lincoln Aust (Unclaimed Profile)
Immigration lawyer at Aust Schmiechen, P.A.
While I am unable to render an opinion that the custody decree will ultimately prove sufficient for USCIS to approve the I-130 and for your stepchild to immigrate to the United States without reviewing the actual decree, I would recommend submitting it with the I-130. Your stepchild's actual ability to immigrate to immigrate  (vis a vis whether the mother has primary custody) is an issue that will be considered in the adjudication of the I-130. However, if your wife is also able to get a statement stating that he has given his consent for the child to relocate to the U.S. and live with your wife and you, that would be a good additional piece of evidence to submit in addition to the decree. As an aside, in my practice I do not bother with filing the I-129F to further applying for K-3/K-4 visas. It is a waste of time and ultimately will not likely be approved before the I-130 is approved. Moreover, even if your family were able to obtain the K-3/K-4 visas, the cost of filing an I-485 is MUCH more expensive than applying for the immigrant visas. State Department lowered immigrant visa fees from $404 to $230. The fee for I-485's is $1,070 for an adult and $635 for a minor. My own professional opinion is to skip the I-129F for K-3/K-4 and just wait for immigrant visa processing after the I-130 is approved. It is ultimately cheaper and perhaps even shorter to just to immigrant visa processing. The I-485 would involve an interview with USCIS.
