Expedite Case Pregnancy complications NVC

Recommended Posts

We filed my husbands visa in 2017 and got an email saying they have all our documents November 2019 and it would be 60-90 days until my husbands interview in Ciudad Juarez. Then the pandemic hit and all embassy’s stopped interviews. Recently We’ve found ourselves pregnant and I’ve been diagnosed with severe morning sickness a condition called Hyperemesis Gravidarum. Basically I cannot keep anything down and throw up all day every day and get IV treatments at hospital. Would this be a reason for Expediting my husbands interview as we have another child who is 4 and needs attention also. I have also not been able to work because of my condition and am really struggling without my husband here.

You can try...on humanitarian or financial grounds....it has become the norm for everyone to request an expedite.

Be aware that if you were to do so on a financial hardship basis, it may or may not raise questions about your ability to support him so he does not become a public charge. It's a bit of a double edged sword unless you have a joint sponsor ready.

I think it’s more about having help with our daughter and him taking care of me than it is about finance. We’ve been waiting so long for all this and now that I’m pregnant and so sick we are just trying to find any way to get him here. I can provide a doctors note and everything. I need more physical support than financial. At this point I wouldn’t even have anyone to take me to the hospital when I go into labor.

That is when you have to patent the super expedites, faster than regular expedites.  

 

OP, best of luck.  You can reach to your local community clinic to find assistance with transport, if needed.  Some doulas in your areas might also be able to help you.  

Best of luck in reuniting with your husband soon.
