US Immigration from Mexico

My wife received her EAD march 18th, started working mid July. We decided mid August we want to see options on buying a house and talked to the top loan officer in our state.

We informed them of my wifes pending adjustment of status, EAD, SSN and asked if thats fine. She looked into it and stated all she needs is the EAD, SSN, and enough evidence from USCIS she plans to renew the EAD of which the pending AOS does that.

I was curious and also looked into it, direct quote from FHA guidelines states:

"FHA insures mortgages made to non-permanent resident aliens provided that
the property will be the borrower s principal residence borrower has a valid Social Security Number (SSN), and borrower is eligible to work in the United States, as evidenced by an Employment Authorization Document (EAD) issued by the USCIS. Note: The Social Security card cannot be used as evidence of work status."

Great! We see how much we were pre-approved for, 280k. We start shopping for a home, found a home, made an offer and pay a $1500 earnest payment, and about $1200 on inspection.

Were supposed to close October 28th.

Our loan goes to underwriting and I later have an email forwarded to by by my loan officers assistant asking for proof of approved greencard. The emails she forwarded stated

"We are unable to approve the exception request. Borrowers currently in the process of changing their status. Their current status is pending (C-09P). To proceed, the borrower s case status must be in approved status."

Called the loan officer and she stated she's aware of what happened and is working on it. Stated she was going to forward the application to the state since technically we are getting lending from.the state, just applying through her company. State it is fine as long as FHA approves it.

Exact text from my officer:

"Minnesota housing said they are just fine with it as long as FHA is fine with it. I have an email in the FHA unfortunately there are 36 to 48 hours for turn times on responses I should have something by end of business Monday"

Im curious if anyone ever got FHA lending while had you AOS pending?

As well, by sounds of it, FHA/HUD handbook states only an EAD and SSN if required for non-permament residents. Technically my wife would qualify.

Hi everyone,

I want to know if I could expedite my case. My case was closed at the NVC in April. Due to covid it hasn't left to the consulate. I'm currently in Mexico staying with my husband. I found out I was pregnant 6 weeks in, however we discovered last week I had an ectopic pregnancy. I had surgery this week to remove my fallopian tube and the egg Tuesday. I have all the paperwork however it is all in spanish. I know I need to translate. But I was wandering if I could use this information to help my husbands case. I currently cannot move . He has been helping me the whole time.

Hey guys! So I finally had an update in my case from the consulate in Juarez on September 22nd. They told me they received my waiver which was approved June 16th and asked me to update my DS260. Can any of you guys explain to me how that is done please. I tried from the CEAC website but it doesn't allow me to make any changes to it.

Are B2 visa holders from Mexico allowed to currently enter the US?

Hello

Thanks!!
