US Immigration from Ethiopia

Hello,

Thank you in advance for any help and info. Does anyone have the P3 or Packet 3 to send me for theUS Embassy in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia? I would like to get a head start on gathering my documents as the petitioner and also let my fianc in Ethiopia know what to expect as well. Her application has just been sent to the embassy in Addis Ababa. I know they will be sending out Packet 3 of instructions of what needs to be done next for both of us as well as which documents we will also need to submit. Thanx

Can an immigrant visa holder return back from US to home country after he/she pays USCIS but before he/she receives a green card?

Meanwhile, would USCIS still count the waiting time for receiving the green card whille he/ she still in home country?

I am a U.S citizen petitioning for my spouse and child who are leaving overseas. The wait time to get Interview Letter (for CR/IR visa applicants) after DQ is between 20 & 24 months for the embassy in the country they reside (Ethiopia). According to the resent Monthly Immigrant Visa Issuance Statistics, the embassy issued 125 and 134 CR/IR visas in March and February, respectively. Thus numbers are really disappointing; considering the 24 months backlog the embassy has. But that is not what caught me by surprise...

I have friends who filed V92 (Asylee) visas for their spouse and children. In their case, they are able to schedule their interview within few weeks after NVC receives their application. This is because, unlike CR/IR cases, NVC doesn't handle the scheduling of V92 visas. Rather, NVC forwards the application to the embassy effectively allowing applicants to schedule appointments. Whereas for CR/IR applicants, NVC is holding the cases for 2 years, denying applicants the opportunity to book appointment when available.

In addition, USCIS is terminating K-3 cases during I-130 approval; effectively denying the opportunity to reunite with our families using K visa. To me, it looks like USCIS, NVC and Embassies are penalizing CR/IR applicants. I just wish there was a legal path to sue NVC and Embassies for this is a clear bias.

Hello

I was wondering the list major risks of transferring a case from home country Embassy to another country Embassy?

I just got an RFE for the Affidavit of support. I'm really confused because I sent my sponsors 1040(2021). My sponsor has a wife and child (6years). Does his wife need to fill out a 1-864A form?

Also, I tried to update my address few months ago. I filled the AR11 online and it got rejected. Can I update my online profile or send proof with the RFE? What documents do I need to get from my sponsor? Thanks for taking your time to respond
