US Immigration from Australia

Hi guys,

Today we received an email from NVC saying that our request for expedite has been approved and our case has been sent to the embassy. The thing is, we never applied for an expedite!

I have sent an email to NVC explaining the same and asking that our interview not be scheduled until May. My sister is getting married in October here in Australia and I'm worried about being able to make it back. Is it possible for them to delay our interview until then?

Has anyone else had this happen?

I was wondering if anyone from Australia has filed for the K1 visa using a co-sponsor? I am trying to find it on the U.S Consulate & Embassy in Australia although it's only stating information about a sponsor in general which would be my partner? i can't find any further info anywhere regarding the joint-sponsor. Is this even possible?

My partner is on a student visa at the moment, we are living together in Australia and we are planning on applying in <7 months and trying to gather as much info as possible now. Her mother has requested her to come back to the states to work there for her company as well as me but i understand that it will take months for me to be able to work, which is okay for both of us. If her mum was able to provide a letter of employment stating the amount my partner will earn would that suffice? She has earnt well below the tax threshold to submit any tax returns back in the states from here in Australia. Our plan is to go over to the states together. Has anyone ever done this?

If Australia offers the joint-sponsor for the K1, would it be easier for her Mother to apply than my partner?

Thanks!

Hey guys,

So my EAD/AP card combo is expiring in Dec, and I'm trying to search how to do it. From a website it says that I can only file within 180 of it expiring, and that it only grants a 180 day extension.

I'm currently on AOS and my field office is expected to take a very long time to schedule an interview to get a GC, so I want to know whether the 180 day extension is true because it doesn't seem very long at all.

I'm also confused as to which specific forms I need to get both an extension EAD and AP? Is it two separate forms that I just send in as one?

And from my understandings, since I filed for AOS, I do not need to pay as long as I submit the AOS notice and copy of current EAD and AP is that correct?

Lastly, do they just send in a new card with both combo'ed on like my current card?

Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks

Hello all,

I am wondering if others are in same situation as myself.

I have the re-entry permit (to keep the green-card). I am in Australia, we are unable to leave international boarders, due to Covid. It's unsure when these boarders will be opened. Will the deadline expiry date of re-entry permit, be strictly adhered to, if I can't return back to the US in time?

I fear that I may lose the GC. Cheers

Hi all - my mom's application was approved in March (bad timing with Covid). The Serbian embassy has been closed since then and we haven't received an interview request (but that's not that surprising).

My mom is about to come here (USA) for a few months. What if they schedule the interview during that time? Do I postpone or is there any way of transferring the remainder of the process to happen in USA?
