US Immigration from India

Good morning all where would I put THE VA Non-taxable income on my I864 Form.

Thanks you.

I am having a hard time finding information on this topic online so I decided to try to get answers here, but I apologize if this is not the correct place to post this.

I am a USC petitioning for a spouse visa for my husband of 3 years, who is living abroad. We are currently awaiting to be DQ'd at NVC.

I'm living with my parents in the US since I am pregnant and will need their hands-on support once my baby is born, which will be soon! Less than 8 weeks!

The problem is, my parents are landlords and have recently started an eviction against a problem-tenant. In an effort to stall or gain favor from the court, the tenant in turn has filed restraining orders on all three of us for violence and harassment against him.

My question is will having a restraining order against me affect my husband's visa process in any way? Will they be doing a background check on me at NVC, DOS (consulate), or CBP (port of entry)? If so, can this be held against my husband? Could he be rejected or can I get my petitioning privileges taken away from me?

I suppose I also want to know the same if this order ends up escalating and he is able to get some charges on us from the court. Don't know if it's possible or if he even will try that but hypothetically if there were charges that went thru, I want to know the effects of that too.

Thank you in advance for any information and insights on the matter!

Hi fellow applicants,

My wife (U.S. citizen) and I (formerly F-1 student) applied for my adjustment of status (plus I-130 and I-765, but no I-131) to permanent residency way back in May 2020 (;_;) and we're still waiting for it to be granted... Timeline is below.

Latest update from the USCIS is that our interview is "ready to be scheduled", but that was back in March 2022 with no interview scheduled yet.

My sister's getting married abroad in February 2023 - so in March we had thought surely the green card will come by February, but no sign of it yet...

We had also reached out to our Congressperson last month for any update on our case, and received a reply yesterday:

Our records indicate that the case is under further review by the Chicago Field Officer. All evidence submitted in support of the application for the immigration benefit being sought is being examined.

Cases may require additional review for a variety of reasons. While the processing steps for most applications are completed quickly, a small percentage of cases involve unresolved issues that may result in adjudication delays. It is difficult to predict with accuracy when this review will be completed. As soon as a decision or notice of action is made, your constituent will be sent a notice.

If the interview is ready to be scheduled since March, but the case is still in Chicago, does this mean they're considering waiving the interview? Otherwise, wouldn't the case be handled in the San Antonio field office (our closest)?

So now I'm facing a choice:

1. Wait for the green card and hope I can travel in February (which would be 11 months after "interview ready to be scheduled")
2. File I-131 for travel authorization (at an additional cost of $575 to this already-expensive process) which we may or may not get by February...

Hello fellow VJers,

I filed i130 for both my parents last year September. My PD is September 18, 2021 for both the cases. Today I received an RFE to submit my foreign language birth certificate. I have an Indian birth certificate and as the official language of India is English I have a birth certificate in English. And that s my only birth certificate. I submitted that during both my applications. Nowhere in my application did I mention that that was my translated birth certificate.
The RFE that I got today asked me to submit a foreign language original birth certificate because apparently I submitted translated birth certificate as per USCIS.

Have anyone faced a similar situation? How can I provide USCIS with something that does not exist?
