US Immigration from Ivory Coast

My husband went to the interview and they gave him a paper that said to bring police clearance and birth certificate. The person that interviewed him kept his passport. We submitted all the evidence on the 01/19/2021. Until today we haven t heard back front the US consulate. I sent them an email on the 01/20/2021 to let them know that I have submitted the required documents. Until today I haven t heard back from them. How long should I wait to contact them about the status of the visa ?

So when your expedite gets approved and sent to the us consulate in your home country . Can you do your medical exam before you scheduled an interview? Or do you need to schedule the interview first before doing medical exam ? And how do you scheduled your own interview ?

Hi VJ,

My wife and stepchildren received visas not long after our 2nd marriage anniversary. As expected, my wife received an IR-1 GC, and my younger stepson received IR-2 GC. Unexpectedly, my older stepson received an IR-2. (Both are minors, but the older will be 18 next year).

We filed I-90 in October 2019 requesting the CR-2 GC be corrected to an IR-2 GC, and finally last week received a response, which was a "request for original" GC.

Two questions I have:

1. Should we expect it will take another year for USCIS to respond to the request for original?

2. Regardless how long USCIS takes to respond, he'll obviously be without a GC for the duration. Should he need to travel, how can he do so? Do we simply file I-131A?

Thanks!
