  1. You applied for nothing in 2023. That was your spouse filing a petition in your behalf. You recently started the visa application process. Your application (DS 260) and all supporting documents have been accepted. You are now waiting to complete the application process. Expect to know your interview date within a few weeks, and to have a few weeks more to wait for that date. When your interview is complete is when you have "applied for a visa".
  2. A lot of these problems are caused by providing inadequate documentation with the passport application. It is most often successful without a Certificate of Citizenship, if you know what to provide instead and actually provide it. When you don't provide adequate evidence, then certainly the certificate of Citizenship will do the trick. To get it, you'll need to provide the same evidence left out of the passport application to begin with, You won't see a list of topics about how easy it was to successfully apply for a US passport without ever filing an N-600. It happens here in the Philippines very often. If the person, ever needs the certificate of citizenship for one of the valid reasons listed, they can file for it any time.
  3. The list of advantages is mostly valid, but there is also speculation posted. It's still "optional" and can be filed for later, if necessary.
  4. Opinions vary on that, but my answer is no. It is not a requirement. It's an option. Exercising that option is a belt and suspenders approach, in my opinion. As for USCIS not recognizing a US Passport as evidence of US Citizenship, one need only look at the list of applicable evidence in the I-130 instructions, where the passport is listed as an option.
  5. I'll add my advice to that of others and my own previous advice. Unless you understand the problem first, it could harm your eventual result, to file without addressing the issue. My advice is to wait for the NOIR. You could contact your US Senator's local office to inquire on why the NOIR is taking so long. I get that this is not what you want to hear, but it is still the correct advice.
  6. Correct. Wife get's green card after arrival, but daughter applies for US Passport after arriving.
  7. Medical is good for only six months. You'll need a new medical. Visas expire six months from the interview date.
  8. Just to be clear, there's lots of good help here, but we are here to help with homework assignments and with understanding the homework after you do it. We are not here to help you avoid the homework by spoon feeding you. Without the homework, you don't know what you don't know, so don't know what to ask.
  9. If you are not a do it yourself type, you can hire help here. https://www.visajourney.com/partners/
  10. You're jumping ahead by not studying the guide. Your initial answers are there.
  11. At worst, you will need confirmation that nothing more is available. You'll just have to wait and see, unless you can get that confirmation before the interview.
  12. There aren't any additional records to request.
  13. Unclear. Please quote exactly what you are seeing. Rejected or invalid, I get. That's a status, not a message. If you want reliable help, quote exactly.
  14. Minus the name, what is the exact wording of the notice?
  15. Yes, the wait for an interview in Cuidad Juarez is around a year or more.
  16. The US, all states, and Immigration related agencies will recognize the Utah County Online marriage and consider it consummated, if you are together in the Philippines during the marriage. The Philippine statistics authority does not recognize these marriages (same sex or not) anymore, but that's not particularly relevant, as they don't recognize same sex marriages anyway. No worries about your employment until a year or so from now, and no worries then, if you are still employed. I doubt Manila will accept DCF in this circumstance. It's not for marriages a week ago between people who haven't even been living together. Your job is not transferring you either. You're just voluntarily ending your stay in the Philippines to go take a new job.
  17. Correct. Parents of US Citizen get similar immigrant visas through almost identical process.
  18. If you are sure of that, no problem, but bring to medical AND the interview. Your photo will be printed as part of your actual visa.
  19. The most important and only actually important information in those sections is the petitioner's email. Make sure to include all the foreign spouse's contact information at the NVC stage though.
  20. Start by clicking on the word "Guides" at the top of any page here. No, you cannot complete the process with both of you in the USA. It's going to take a couple years or more going through Cuidad Juarez, but you have no other legal option. You will either need to go back to work in the USA to qualify as sponsor, or find a well qualified joint sponsor with a plausible motivation to support the two of you, if you are not supporting yourselves.
  21. London is not really known as sticklers for domicile issues. You will certainly need to qualify to sponsor your spouse. If you do not have US income or income that will continue from the same source once in the USA, you can use liquid assets to qualify. Study the instructions for the I-864. Become an A-Student of both the instructions and the form. It spells out what they consider liquid. A home outside the USA is not a liquid asset, just as your primary residence IN the USA would not be considered liquid.
  22. Do the best you can. If the what you have with you works, fine. If not, you'll have plenty of time to get the correct birth certificate.
  23. No. Like I already said, if you meet one and not the next, that's too close for comfort anyway.
  24. Needs to be more clear or higher resolution. Too blurry to read on laptop or phone
