US Immigration from Iraq

Hello, my wife (CR-1) just arrived about 3 weeks ago and applied for college. I been in my current state for more then 25 year, can she claim residency in state while applying for college?

Thanks

Hello everyone,

I am trying to connect with fellow members who have applied for CR1 and have been transferred from Baghdad to Abu Dhabi, my case was documentary qualified in july 2020 but my case is still at NVC, while reading posts on here I have found out that many applications have been scheduled for interviews that were DQ'ed after my case but it seems all these applications were not transferred to Abu Dhabi like mine.

I just need to know if that is normal for transferred applications and if I need to take action, it has been almost 2 years since I sent my i-30 (priority date oct 2019) and its getting really hard to wait and my wife has been crazy lonely in Baghdad, just looking for some hope on this site.

good luck everyone

Hi everyone

I filed for VISA beginning of 2018

was DQ'd on September 2020

file currently at NVC waiting for ANKARA US embassy to reopen which it will takes forever

denied expedite request twice

The stress was unreal to the point I left my studies ( Radiology student at RIT)

I went insane and couldn't handle the stress and depression anymore so I booked a flight two weeks ago to go back to Iraq and live with my wife until they schedule her an Interview appointment

I just can't leave her alone anymore, not in this country ruined by Iranian militia.

We're mentally and emotionally better now since we're together but too afraid of the situation ( too dangers living here)

my question is, will that effect the process of her VISA?

since I, the petitioner living outside of U.S ?

I'll stay here with her until they grand her VISA to go back together, will that be a problem?

Thank you all.

Hello,

My wife has her interview soon in the Abu Dhabi embassy for immigration. I know they offer Arabic/Farsi/Urdu/Hindi, but none of these language work for her can we bring our own? An interpreter over the phone, video conferencing, in-person or can I join here while she dose her interview so I can translate?

Thanks

Hello, my wife is an Iraqi citizen currently residing in Iraq. Our IR-1 case has been DQ since 10/29/2020 and we are waiting for an interview at the US embassy in Abu Dhabi. How everyone else is doing with their case and if you got an interview scheduled in Abu Dhabi what was your DQ date?
