US Immigration from Ghana

Does anyone know if I was first CR1 (less than 2 years married) and now I ve been married for 2 years now, how does it change in NVC system to IR1?

also what s the point of priority date if it doesn t pertain to CR1/IR1?

Thank you

i just made an account to ask this question since it's been on my mind a lot. my fianc e and I have been together since 2021. she's 31 and I'll be 29 this year. she is a citizen through naturalization, is divorced. i have never been married and we both have no kids. we have text and WhatsApp call logs and video call logs to back it up(though not from the time we met as I had to create a new fb account). she's staying by herself and is not a burden to the state in anyway and can sponsor me. i guess my only concern is face time together. we are both from Ghana, from the same tribe and have a lot in common however, she doesn't come down often. The last time she was in Ghana was some years ago.

we do however plan on her coming early this year. we plan on going to see her parents to introduce myself to the family and make it known that i am in her life. no form of traditional marriage whatsoever. we figured we can do that down the line. we might file for the i-129f after she leaves back to the states. she might be staying for 3 weeks to a month. if finances allow, maybe more than a month.

my question is, is the one visit to Ghana where we can provide passport stamps and hotel stay and pictures of face to face with both sides of the family enough for proof of a bone fide relationship?

do we have a good case? because I read on here how Ghana is a hard embassy and it's filling me with dread. stay safe out there guys.

my partner and i are currently in china working ,but we plan on leaving to the states to get married by June. Can we apply for a K1 visa whiles we are still in china for us to move together? also as foreigners here in china we cant get married here.

Hello everyone. Please, I stumbled upon this platform and it seems many people here have some great insight. I need some guidance about my fianc 's petition please. It has been finally submitted to the embassy in Ghana and the status says:

"Your case is ready for your interview when scheduled at the U.S. Consular section. If you have already scheduled an appointment for an interview, please prepare your documents as directed in your appointment letter and appear at the consulate on the appointed date and time. Otherwise, please wait until you have been notified of your interview appointment..." should we complete the DS 160 now and schedule the interview or the embassy will notify us first? Will they notify me or my fianc ..? And will this be email or mail? (We all know the mailing system in GH - sigh). It's been like this since the beginning of November...any tip is appreciated.

Thank you!

Hi everyone.

I need suggestions from anyone that has encountered this situation like mine. I attended my n-400 interview in August this year, passed all the civic questions, and at the end of the interview, the office gave me a paper that said decision could not be made at the moment. She told me that within 100 days, I would hear back from USCIS. Now, is more than 120 days, and I called them to know what's going on. Yesterday, I received the attached letter from them.

Does anyone know what I can do next? This is very frustrating.
