  1. "Medical examination results from other physicians will not be accepted." https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/Supplements/Supplements_by_Post/DBL-Dublin.html#Med_exam_instructions And from the NVC website "You (and each family member or “derivative applicant” applying for a visa with you) are required to schedule a medical appointment with an authorized physician in the country where you will be interviewed". https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/immigrate/the-immigrant-visa-process/step-10-prepare-for-the-interview.html#:~:text=You (and each family member,to as the Panel Physician. HTH.
  2. You'll get info from the consulate on how to schedule the medical exam in your interview letter. There is no average for interview dates as it's very dependent on the consulate - some are only a couple of months after being DQ'ed, others are a couple of years. So it will depend on which consulate your mother will interview at, you can look at threads in the relevant forum for more info on how long it's taking there. Good luck.
  3. Ah, ok. Probably won't help then unfortunately, but if your husband doesn't have his visa by then it would be with getting everything ready and applying as soon as you're eligible to. Good luck.
  4. But if they're already USC's then they're not immigrating - only you are. So amend that to 'no' and hopefully you should be good to go. Good luck.
  5. It will depend on the category and your country of birth - assuming you're a 'normal' EB3 (not 'other workers') and were born in Canada, then yes, you'd be current. https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/legal/visa-law0/visa-bulletin/2024/visa-bulletin-for-may-2024.html
  6. It means there's no visa available to you until your Priority Date is before that date. So, what is your Priority Date? It would be super helpful if you could fill in your timeline on your profile.
  7. It will take longer for Montreal. Have a read of the thread above, lots of timelines in there. This is the most recent post (March) from somebody that was given an IL to give you an idea - Good luck.
  8. Sounds like you completed the DS-260 wrongly, what did you put in the 'is this child immigrating to the US with you' question? And what was wrong with the police checks, were they in accordance with the below? https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/Visa-Reciprocity-and-Civil-Documents-by-Country/australia.html https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/Visa-Reciprocity-and-Civil-Documents-by-Country/NewZealand.html
  9. The 10 years the I-130 has taken is good though, she may just scrape through under the CPSA, depending on when the I-130 is finally processed - they need to hope it's still a long way away from approval. Fingers crossed for them.
  10. How old is the child? 10 years is good, means they're at much less risk of aging out. I'm sure you already know this, but even if the I-130 is approved soon, they've still got a long wait ahead of them for a visa to become available. The I-130 is only the petition and first step. Assuming they're from the Philippines, then those that applied in August 2002 are only just now becoming eligible for visas - nearly a 22 year wait. https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/legal/visa-law0/visa-bulletin/2024/visa-bulletin-for-may-2024.html
  11. Cases are transferred to balance out workload all the time, it may make things a bit quicker than if it had stayed in whichever service centre it was at but doubtful it will be by much. Does the son/daughter that is married have children? If so you want the I-130 to take as long as possible anyway.
  12. That's the date for filing i.e. submitting supporting documents to NVC and completing the DS-260. Those people still aren't eligible for a visa yet, until their PD is current on Table A. Either way it's still a long wait though, unfortunately it's not linear (F1 category has only moved 9 months in the past 3 years), so who knows how fast it will move in the future. I'd guess at maybe 5 years to go, but it really is just a guess. All you can do is check it occasionally and hope it moves faster - and don't get married! Good luck.
  13. Currently those who applied in July 2015 have just become eligible for visas, so 3 years ahead of you. But there's no way of knowing what the future wait is, all you can do is keep an eye on the Visa Bulletin and see how it's moving, once your PD is current then you'll be added to the queue for an interview. Good luck.
