US Immigration from Ukraine

Hi have question ?

As the year roles around again do I have to reapply for the EAD card . Are is their a new rule out that the card is good for 2 years ?????

Thanks

PSA, the USCIS has instructions on how to expedite your I-131 in the instructions pdf file on their webpage but we followed those instructions exactly and when I got off the phone with the customer service representative just now, they said that they had no record that the application had requested expediting service and the customer service rep said they weren't aware of the instructions to write "EXPEDITE" in the top right corner of the application even after spending about 10 minutes searching for those instructions while I was on hold. So my advice is follow the instructions but realize that following the instructions is not going to get your request made. After you get your NOA, call and make sure to request expediting through a customer service rep.

Regards,

Stephen and Antonina

Our interview is scheduled. I did everything myself up until here. There is no instructions how to sign up on the site. Can someone help me?

Has anyone gotten an interview and tried to extend it one month? How do I do this? Or will they put me back in the queue and it will again be an unknown wait?

Hi all.

After 11 months of silence, NVC has sent an email for each pending IR5 case with a topic "Immigration appointment cancelled".

"We previously notified you of the date and time of your immigrant visa interview at the US Embassy/Consulate General in Kyiv, UKR.

Due to unforeseen circumstances, we have to cancel this interview. We will schedule a new interview appointment as soon as possible and notify you of the date and time.

There is no need for you to take action at this time."

What got me puzzled is that the last time we heard from NVC was when both cases got DQ'ed in July 2020 and that's it. IR5 was under ban for almost a year, and we most definitely have never had our interview scheduled.

After looking through Visa Journey I found that last year for some people this same email was sent out in cases of approved expedited request.

However we have never formally requested that.

Does know what that could mean? Case status in CEAC shows "at NVC".

Should I send an inquiry to NVC?

Or maybe an inquiry to the consulate in Ukraine? (but then the case seems to be at NVC...)

Any feedback is greatly appreciated.
