Doctor did not give me the medical exam result in a sealed envelope.

Hi all,

I'm a K1 visa applicant from Canada.

I have my K1 Visa interview next week in Montreal!

I did my medical examination last month in Maple, Ontario with Dr. Ian Zatzman.

Everything seemed to be okay but, the doctor did not give me the medical exam result in a sealed envelope.

He said it was emailed to the US consulate instead.

What should I do?

Has anyone experienced this?

Is this how it is being processed now because of COVID?

I just want to make sure that I will be okay when I go to the interview.

Which visa? Petitioner and beneficiary both living in Canada

I'm an American citizen (by birth) and have been in Canada since 2013 (I have dual citizenship as of 2019). I met my Canadian fiance here in Toronto. We are looking to move to the States and reside there permanently.

I have pored over the information on the different spousal visas, but they all seem to be missing the information of what do I do if I, the petitioner, am not residing in the States, and have not for quite some time? Do I *have* to move back alone first before applying? I guess the main question I am asking here is which visa, if any, will allow me to apply from Canada and stay with my fiance until we move to the States together. From what I have gathered, DCF is not really a thing anymore, so that option is out. (I am willing to get married in Canada beforehand, if K1 is not the best option for my situation).


I'd also like some guidance on establishing domicile (if this is even necessary depending on which visa I choose). My life has of course been in Canada for the last 8 years and I don't have any family ties in the States. We would be starting over completely together in a new state. My job is fairly easily transferrable and I don't think finding an offer would be too hard. My fiance has a job in Canada that he could potentially work from home in the States until he finds a job in America- is this even allowed?

Thanks so much for any help provided. I appreciate it.

My wife just got her 2 year green card! YAY!

When we applied for the card we checked the box to get a SSN number with the AOS. One didn't arrive with the card and I don't see any reference to one coming in any of the documentation.

Do we go to the Social security office and follow up? We don't want to accidently apply twice.

IR1 - DS 260 supporting civil docs for Quebec expats - NVC made a mistake ! (?)

I thought I'd share my experience for the Quebec-born visa seekers, as I found very little info on the matter -

I completed my NVC doc for IR1 visa on Sept 25th and got a reply at the end of December; my birth certificate and marriage certificate were rejected with the following somehwat imprecise message:

Please replace this with an acceptable marriage certificate from a correct issuing authority. Please use our Document Finder at https://nvc.state.gov/find for acceptable documents guidelines.

As per the link, Quebec folks need to submit a "Certified copy of an act" from the Directeur de l' tat Civil, which is what I had provided. Because the NVC msg is so imprecise, there's no way to know what was the issue with the docs, or if it's a NVC mistake.

I called the NVC line and after two hours of hold, the gentleman said he could not see any issue with the docs, and that I needed to resubmit the exact same docs with a explanatory note.

The docs are then put at the back of the NVC queue, which means that they will not be reviewed for another 3 months.

I escalated to his superior and sent an email using "Ask NVC", but the response delays are about 6 weeks for both.

All that to say, if NVC makes an error on those QC docs - which seems to be the case here - applicants seem to have no recourse. Applicants just go back to the end of the line. Especially frustrating if there is indeed something wrong with the docs, which would mean I'd have to wait 3 months to get that feedback and another 3 months to correct, for a total of *drumroll* 9 months in the NVC queue.

Seems extremely unproductive for both NVC and applicants, but hey, wouldn't be the first odd process in all this madness.

I-130 for 20 year old son filed 2020

good morning yall.

april 2020 we filed a CR1 for my husbands (at the time) 20 year old son. Other than receiving the NOA1, we have had no notifications/communication regarding it. Which was fine as he was finishing University and we didn't expect it to go through until around when he was to graduate (obviously we wanted him to finish school before coming) and to get the application in before he turned 21. He turns 22 in April of this year.

I wouldnt really put much thought into the length of time it has been, other than I notice the date on the case history says 'invalid date'. We have received no notifications or communications regarding the petition, so I am just wondering if that is normal, or if I (or hubby since he filed the petition for his son), need to make a call to see what is going on.

pics to show exactly what I am looking at.
