US Immigration from Canada

I just received a request for initial evidence for the affidative of support portion and I am very confused. All the information they are asking for I have submitted, and had an immigration consultant help me fill out the forms. I have attached the letter below. so frustrating .. also at the bottom are they requesting the I-944 at this time too?

thanks so much!

My wife has been documentarily qualified for about 3 months now. How long does it take until she gets an interview date? We are doing the Spousal visa by the way.

I'm a Canadian citizen awaiting my interview letter from the Montreal embassy. We are in the F3 category and DQ. My passport expires in end of February 2021. Just curious what the best course of action would be? I spoke with the passport office and they told me once I get my interview letter and date, I could expedite my renewal for my passport. Is this fine? Should I bring the new and old passport to the interview, and will I need to inform NVC before I renew it?

FYI - case is not current yet. 2021's visa bulletin says July 8th 2008 for January, and our PD is end of July, 2008.

Thank you in advance

Hi! So we received an RFE as apparently we are missing pages 3-6 & 5-6 on our I-130A. I was thinking they were saying I m missing the 3rd & 5th pages from the I-130A (which is super strange..) but not 100% certain if that s how it s interpreted. RFEs apparently have the ability mess your confidence and have you overthink!

Also, on topic of the I-130A, I am having troubles organizing my additional info on my 5 year employment history. I was told that I should do it chronological so I don t show any gaps of time. However I ve been in university for the past five years, and have had seasonal work to fill up the rest of my time - for example, I ve returned to work for a employer 3 for 5 winters and another employer for 2 summers. Do I repeat the info of employer 3 five times then? Or do I just put the info required for employer 3 once and list all the months employed? I also at the end of listing all my employers put:

reason for sporadic and non full time work:

Studied full-time from September 2015-April 2020 for my Bachelors of Science in Nursing degree at the _______university________ in ____city____, _____province______

would this be helpful or am I overthinking? Thank you in advance!

Hello all,

I am helping my sister in-law that filed a petition for her mother that lives overseas.

Here is the background, the petition was filed in May 2019 and was approved in August 2020.

My sister in law was trying to use an attorney but the fees are too expensive so she asked for my help and I have a few questions please, this process is new to me.

She received the welcome email from NVC, titled "Notice of Immigrant Visa Case Creation" in August 2020 telling her to log on in CEAC, and follow the 12 steps.

So normally the next steps should be to pay the fees.

But when she gets to the website, there is a message that says: "Due to the numerical limitations on immigrant visa issuance prescribed by law, this petition is not eligible for further processing at this time. The National Visa Center (NVC) will retain the petition until an immigrant visa becomes available. The NVC will notify the petitioner, principal applicant, or attorney of record when this petition is eligible for further processing. The principal applicant should not make any firm plans such as disposing of property, giving up jobs, or making travel arrangements at this time."

Please correct me if I am wrong: I thought for parents of US citizens visas were available at all times? Or does it have anything to do with the presidential order from April 2020?

But when I am looking on the forum I see that other people that got petitions approved after August 2020 were able to pay for the fees at NVC and move forward with their application.

Can somebody please help me and shed some light for me please?

Please see a screenshot of the CEAC session attached. I am also surprised that the name of the applicant is not even visible in the CEAC session.

Should she contact NVC and see why she is not able to pay the fees yet, 4 months after the petition was approved?

FYI the consulate will be in Burkina Faso

Thank you for your help
