Visa K1 now (October) or Wait?
Silva Francine posted a topic in What Visa Do I Need - Family Based Immigration,
Hi everyone, do you think it's a good idea to file my K1 petition now in October? I am totally confused! I'm afraid of being late and having things take forever to get into the USA. Do you believe that processing will take more than 9 months now?-

I129F denied due to 2 year meeting requirement, next steps for person with flying phobia? (merged)
devusr posted a topic in IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & Procedures,
I have severe flying phobia and even with medical evidence and the financial support, USCIS denied my I-129F application. The beneficiary's family are long time friends and lives in Sri Lanka. I will now file a CR1 but I cannot fly, especially since going to Sri Lanka from USA requires minimum 16+ hours and 3 flight changes. Only a person with flying phobia can understand. Help?-

24 RepliesHello everyone,
I need your advice. Thank you for taking your time in reading my post! So my younger brother has an expired greencard, he is scared to get it re-new because he has a felony and is afraid of getting deported & getting the application rejected. Here is another curveball both of our parents became America citizens before we were 18, but didn t bring us along with their citizenship, Who are both divorce at the time of citizenship. Can he still renew his greencard & still have the process go through?? Many thanks for taking your time writing your advice!

Hi· 0 replies
Hope you're doing well. I wanted to ask you if you've heard anything about new scheduled interviews. The embassy started with IR1/CR1 & 2 & K1 visas on October 3rd apparently. Do you know of anyone that has had an interview scheduled?

Hi,· 6 replies
Have the Embassy in Jakarta scheduled you for an interview yet? we've been calling the Embassy but they kept telling us that the consular workers are still working from home.
My wife and daughter received NOA2 back in July 2020.
Thank you

Hello Mates,· 0 replies
I have submitted my online N400 during last week of June. Got receipt and confirmation letter.
However, I haven’t heard anything about fingerprints.
Online portal initially showed 14 days process and since then it is showing “We are taking longer than expected to process your case. You do not need to do anything at this time.”.
I live in Torrance, CA. I was wondering if it is uniquely happening with me.
Many thanks,
Dr. Hassan
