US Immigration from Canada

Hi everyone,

They emailed me this morning that my visa packet is ready to pickup. I went at the designated location, 1002 sherbrooke R100 store montreal particularly and the guard said it was close due to pandemic. I m so worry, what will I do? Thank you so much!

So my fiance's income isn't gonna cut it for the income requirements. His dad has agreed to bo a joint sponsor. He's married and they file joint taxes.

1 - Do we list his wife as a dependant on his I-134?

2 - I was told I can only put his income in the 'income' field. Is this correct? If so, it would just be his social security checks.

3 - His wifes name is also listed on their bank accounts, and house deed. Does this affect anything?

Has anyone expedited visitor visa for USA during covid times. I am K1 visa beneficiary and my brother and sister-in-law had applied for B2 visa for US last year 2020. Every since then their interview keeps on getting canceled each time its due. Now the only available interview dates are in 2022 only. With things moving for K1 visa I am hoping to get approved around summer this year(NOA2 Oct 2020) and want my family to come to US for the marriage whenever it happens. Has anyone expedited visitor visa for family members in similar situation and if you can share experience and how long it takes.

On the N-400 form, they ask the following question:

"15. Were you EVER a member of, or did you EVER serve in, help, or participate in any of the following groups:

B. Paramilitary unit (a group of people who act like a military group but are not a part of the official military)?"

I was an Air Cadet (not military, but they do drill and survival stuff for kids under the age of 18,) in my teens for a short period of time. To me it probably doesn't meet the qualification because you would never be called on for war, but it's the part in the question that reads, "act like a military group" and they are very much structured like a military group with ranks and drill and they are technically associated with the Canadian Armed Forces. Should I just say yes and explain, or should I leave this for question 9a?

"9 A. Have you EVER been a member of, involved in, or in any way associated with, any organization, associate, fund, foundation, party, club, society, or similar group in the United States or in any other locations in the world?"

Or just put it in BOTH to be safe? Sounds so stupid. It's like a strict version of the boy scouts. lol.

Hi,

I wanted to get some information.

I petitioned for my parents IR-5(priority date 12/31/2018). I did the whole process myself using VJ guide.

Anyway, on the NVC CEAC status check website it says your case is currently at NVC. Seems it hasnt moved from there, the last notification I received was on 06/08/2020 saying all documents have been received and approved, since then we have heard nothing. All the fees are paid. The consulate assigned is Montreal. I presumed there was a backlog due to COVID-19, but its been almost 9 months now without any movement in the case.

Just wanted to know if Im missing something or if I should do anything additional? I hope I havent missed out on a step, but I imagine I would have received a communication by now.

Will appreciate your thoughts.

P.S Before this, about 8 years ago, my wife & I completed my VJ thanks entirely to guidance from the kind people on this website. It went super smooth.

Kind Regards,
