    Thinking of switching employment! (Kind of)

    in IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & Procedures

    Posted

    Hey Guys,

    My file is almost close to its end at NVC and will be moving on pretty soon to India for the final step (interview). My question is would there be problems if I was to switch employement? I am planning on quitting my current job and am thinking of starting my own venture. Now I am going to India on Nov 19th to visit my wife as it has already been close to a year and will be there for a month with her. I am being hopeful that she will get her interview in that same time frame while I am there and both of us can come back together. So would there be a problem if I was to quit my current job and start my own venture? I have already read a few posts on VJ about this on how I may have to go about redoing the I864 and giving it to my wife so she can it along with her for her interview but those threads were in regards to a job switch, here I am not really switching a job I am quitting my existing one and starting my own company. So what are my options, should I just wait it out until she has had her interview and then quit or would it be okay for me to do it?

    Thanks. :)

    It really doesn't matter if you quit or start new one.. Check with NVC abt AOS (approved or not) ... it should be fine if your 2013 Tax Returns have sufficient income ... They only ask financial questions to applicant with border line income..

    Question:

    did you guys mail the package with ATT: CMR OR ATT:DR?

    Just sending AOS then Attn:CMR AOS.. both AOS & IV .. you should send to Attn:DR.. with the new process all documents should send after completing DS-260 to Attn:DR

    Also, on the i-184ez, on question 16, your house hold size: for count that are zero do you put in zero or leave blank?

    Either is fine...

    and question 9, "place of resident if different from mailing list" if it is the same do you leave blank or put same address again?

    put Same Address

    lastly, in part 7, information on Preparer, I am the preparer as well as the petitioner. what do i do here? leave blank, write n/a on each line, giant n/a, or fill in my information?

    You can leave it blank.. but send all 9 pages

    Moving to the US – Applying for Spousal VISA

    Thanks for your suggestion. But as it states on the IR-1 Visa requirements, I must be living in the US to apply for the I-130. Is there a problem submitting the form from here (or likewise, from there - with my "permanent residence" in California), but living in Colombia?

    Also, your first comment could have simply been reduced to "The first option is Visa fraud" and that would have been enough. I'm asking the question out of ignorance, not because I want to trick the system.

    Are you PR/Citizen ? .. You in Columbia due to any work related reason ? ...

    As of sept 12, 2014 you MUST submit AOS and IV Package together In ONE package.

    Visit NVC website....or read Saylin's wiki (link on the 1st post of this thread)!!!!

    If you wanna get delayed in this process(Which I am pretty sure you don't) send them seperately!!If you do so you will have 2scan dates...and your docs will be reviewed 60 days from your last scan date...ak more waiting!

    I will advise you to send aos and IV together..you can put each package in an enveloppe and write down AOS/IV and put both enveloppes in another enveloppe with the address

    This is my opinion....

    It didn't work out for me.... they misplaced my documents.. so better send both with IV coversheet.

    Also you should wait for BOTH fees to be paid to mail your package to the NVC to prevent anything from being lost or misplaced by them. As per NVC website. I don't give a hoot if the operator says it's okay, they don't actually work on your case. A supervisor can and does so that is different.

    Yes... they misplaced my civil documents... only send IV to Attn: DR with barcode cover sheet

    When is your "received date?"

    I labeled everything with bright pink printed adhesive labels with the Case # and IIN.

    It seems to reason to me, reading from past posts before the process change that paperwork was lost then too. I don't think losing paperwork is new and as a result of the new process.

    For your sake, I hope they find it quickly.

    Scan date 8/27... Received IV checklist on 10/23... reviewer comments civil documents are missing.. looks like he reviewed based on case file received from USCIS.. Waiting for Sup review.. .also at the same time preparing certified documents ..

    After my AOS fee showed as paid, I used the Document Cover Sheet to send both the AOS and IV packages together as instructed by an NVC operator.

    A few days later I received the email stating my documents were received and to wait 60 days for review. That was 32 days ago.

    I haven't received any checklists as of yet.

    I don't anticipate receiving the archaic "false" checklists since both packages were sent and received together.

    I know someone else here who did the same thing about a month before me and has received his case complete with no issues.

    I don't know what to say on this... Hope it won't get lost while in transit from one unit to another... I did send both together with AOS cover sheet.. now IV documents are missing... waiting for them to retrieve it :clock:

    I called NVC yesterday after 7… after 20 tries got it … was on hold for 35 minutes.. Initially I was really scared because thought they lost my documents… these AOS reviewers sometimes separates the IV documents.. since handling 1,000’s of cases they might get lost in transit to another unit..

    The rep checked my case… AOS is approved and DS-260 is fine… but few notes from case reviewer that’s why it landed in check list…

    Marriage Certificate – Reviewer notes it’s a duplicate.. Need Original one… My marriage certificate from India is in black and white... with original color signature and blue seal of the county. They use low quality paper not like US certificates… Also India has two kinds of Marriage certificates… one for special marriage act in color stamp duty paper but without photographs.. and another one for marriage registered after religious ceremony black and white with copy of your photographs .. and the format is different for each state… I told them I send the original with AOS… it is the original and if I go to get another certified copy you will get the same black and white with original seal and signature because thats the format they use from 2011.

    Applicant Birth Certificate – Reviewer noted inappropriate … Actually she was born in 90 and certificate was obtained in 99… state government implemented computer records for this birth and death certificates in the mid 2000’s… before that they type or write with pen on a color stamp Duty paper with seal and signatures… She was one of the few who had her certificates from 90's. I think after mid 2000’s they introduced a new format.. now most with people without original certificates can obtain the new one.. this is also printed on a color stamp duty paper… I mention the original was send with AOS…

    PCC- Missing… I already submitted 2 PCC’s (Passport Office, District police office). District police report only needed for immigration to middle east countries..

    The rep name was Jack.. he said he doesn’t know which documents they reviewed… but He will putting a request for supervisor review…He said time frame depends on sup workload… but told me to call back after a week.. I didn’t get much energy to explain because I was distracted after hearing this.. I will call back again discuss the case status… The certificates are genuine…also in English… and I know few who already immigrated this year with these certificates.. I believe it depends on some reviewers or he/she reviewed something else L ….

    My spouse will get another copy of Marriage certificate and birth certificate in new format… but it will take 1-7 days plus mailing and reviewing time… I wish to get CC in October … I am believing for a miracle…

    Is the checklist for AOS or IV? Those documents are supposed to go with IV. If you sent both AOS and IV together, they should have them already and you can give them a call to resolve the issue.

    Need advise!

    Saturday will be 60 days for me. My scan date is 8/27. Only today and tmw working days is left. Still dont have a CC. Should i call NVC and speak to a supervisor? Or just wait it out hoping eventually to get a CC.

    Also, can someone have CC although AOS fee hasnt changed to N/A? Im afraid to call bc i dont think i can take any bad news :(

    Mine too.. Aug 27 Original scan date for AOS & IV.... so far no checklist :)

    I recommend to wait until Monday.... official 60th day

    Hi guys I am new to this and its very helpful. I seen ppl getting responses before the 60 days and I wish that will happen to me.

    My husband is in DR and I want to get this over with I started everything in Jan 2014.

    Affidavit Doc received 9.3.14 (which the 60 days are almost up)

    IV application 10.6.14

    I am hoping and crossing my finger that when they review the affidavit they review everything and complete my case.

    Please let me know if that's happened to any of you. :jest:

    You send AOS & IV together... ?? .. you should have a response before 11/3.
