US Immigration from Ukraine

Hello,

I had my interview on October 19ht. Next day, I saw my case status updated as Oat ceremony is scheduled.

I can review letter on the portal. The ceremony is scheduled on November 3rd.

This Monday the official letter/invite should have came by mail but it did not arrive. It could be lost in mail or something. Even it was in my preview email form USPS.

So what should I do now? Should I just print a letter from portal and go to ceremony next week?

I have tried to file missing notice request on USCIS website, but they will not get back to me till Nov 18, which is way pass my ceremony day.

For me, the estimate a few weeks ago was April. Then it was May. Now it is July. My application shows at Nebraska with no action yet.

Is this stretching out a common experience now?

What is the current wait time after the DQ to the interview for the parents of US citizens (IR5) in Kiev/Kyiv consulate? Any insight anyone?

Apparently, DHS has paroled 31000 migrants into the USA since March from the southern border. This used to be very rare.

Is there any discussion of paroling all of us in the lengthening queue while DHS processes our paperwork. Does State really HAVE to be involved in this process?

Here is my question . Are these children now my adopted stepchildren now officially? I am the Petitioner and they are the beneficiaries. Looking this up on google says the CR2 visa is for adopted children in immigration. My wife and her two children received their Visas a few weeks ago. I had to file three petitions. Hers says CR1 and both of theirs, ages 7 and 11 say CR2. My work pays all fees for adoption of children including outside of the US. My boss just brought this to my attention. If they are I could get this money back and put it into their future savings. I could call a lawyer and ask but I did all this paperwork for all three on my own and feel lawyers try to just take our money and that would defeat the purpose.
