My US senator asked that they review our case thoroughly. Maybe getting the second interview is just a result of them doing their due diligence at the senators request. I sure hope it changes things. We also submitted his court files translated into English hoping they misunderstood things that were lost in their incorrect interpretation that he “could have been involved in drug trafficking.” He was asked by his boss to pay an employee who later bought cocaine and was caught. A corrupt district attorney arrested him and tried to extort money from him and his family. When they refused to pay he was jailed. and he was eventually exonerated and completely cleared. We’re trying to present that as much as we can since there’s of course no concrete proof of his innocence. He’s golden by the Mexican government but apparently that wasn’t enough for the US Consulate. I am praying that being in the right and being good people will conquer in the end. Processing Estimates/Stats : Your I-130 was approved in 223 days from your NOA1 date. Your interview took 675 days from your I-130 NOA1 date.

Port of Entry Review Event Date Port of Entry : Charlotte POE Date : 2019-12-13 Got EAD Stamp : Biometrics Taken : Harassment Level : 0 Comments : Don’t forget to take care of your green card payment stuff before entry. You can pay it after of course, but for some reason they had my old address from more than two years before and had to send his green card there even though I had changed my address well before the interview on everything. I didn’t see the thing at the bottom of the page that they gave him, and was waiting to receive instructions. Have I gotten on the website when I should have I would’ve caught the address problem and not spent two days on the phone trying to get to someone just to change my address.
