hello there my neighbor is a green card holder and married she applied for i130 back in nov 2014, and was approved in february 2015. he entered illigal to the united states, can he file i601a nvc completed his case last week and no appointment has been scheduled, or how long does it take for him to receive appointment then file i601

I think that if he entered illegally there is NO WAY he can solve his situation, not even if the spouse is/becomes a citizen.

How did he enter the US, specifically?

Unfortunately, there's no waiver for spouses of GC holders.

I personally prefer the Dacabilly route, however that is currently not open to Green Card holders. I believe if Obamas extension currently held up goes thoughts then it will be open

Otherwise wait for Citizenship or do the old fashioned I 601 route.

All above assumes we are dealing with a simple overstay.

You have a couple of options depending on him having an otherwise clean record.
