I have to travel to india asap but didn't renounce/surrender indian passport. can i apply for evisa and travel using usa passport

hello

my wife has visa interview next month.NVC added FNU (first name unknown) infront of her name.When I asked they said they go by name on passport provided in which surname was blank.How can I avoid this FNU on green card without changing passport.

Note: even my family had same issue when we were immigrating to USA NVC added FNU in front of our name because of no surname. But visa was issued without FNU. EX nvc documents states FNU john smith but visa was issued as given name John surname smith.

I dont know at what stage I should bring this up at interview?? or at CBP or while paying green card fee.

Thanks

hi vj members

NVC started scheduling for sep month

my wife"s interview is on sep 1 at mumbai consulate.we were waiting for my citizenship. I got my citizenship on july 22

10 months after filing. My case is finally in line for interview today!.

when is ur interview

18% INCREASE ON I-751, THATS CRAZY

same here,

i applied 10 months ago, , today my status changed to "we started the interview scheduling process ".

i hope it wont go back to previous state, I recently heard quiet few stories where the status went back

My wife got her passport before marriage,we applied for immigrant visa F2a . she may receive interview (mumbai consulate India) letter.till now we have used her old passport for all documents for I130, NVC etc (which is still valid).She has not changed her name after marriage.Is it mandatory to update passport after marriage to get immigrant visa to USA

can i walkin in my local fbi office to inquire about my pending background checks

Yes, we are stuck in the name check too. 8 months since fingerprints.

I AM IN THE SAME BOAT, ITS STRESSFULL

Yes, we are stuck in the name check too. 8 months since fingerprints.

I AM IN THE SAME BOAT, ITS STRESSFULL

The whole process is a painful waiting game, if it helps any, I waited 9 months to get an interview letter. Whereas others who filed after me in same local field office were all done by the end of summer. Every case is different, I know all too well how much it sucks to be left in the dark, waiting without any updates, but I am sure you will hear something soon. The excitement will hit you and then the stress of the interview will creep up on you shortly before the date and then you will be buying hair dye to cover up all the grey hair this process has caused you. Then one day it will all be over and you will never have to worry about dealing with immigration again

thank you

I AM STILL WAITING,NO PROGRESS AT ALL

I did a small research by looking at the status of 1000 cases around my case number. looks like 10 to 12 percent have the similar status as ours, Case received on xxxxx. I am thinking all these cases were hold because of name check or some further checks. I think it might take about 6 months to see any movements. I tried contacting my local senator and he said the same thing, my case is 3 month old and local field office is taking more than 5 months and I have to wait few more months to put an enquiry, I think we just have to wait couple more months and see what happens. .

thanks

Yes it really sucks, what's your online status show. looks like you have 3 cases, all three are with same status. mine shows "Case received" but finger prints were done 2 and half month ago..

i am in the same boat. just waiting for interview

which month did you apply

my case was received on july 29

has anyone preponeded citizenship interview.if you have postponeded your interview, after how long will USCIS schedule for next interview

Same thing with me, my FP done on 9/3 and case status still shows as "Case received". How do you know your case is stuck in background check. Did you call USCIS or just a guess ?

made info pass and the officer told me waiting for security clearence

i am one of those who is still waiting for interview letter. stuck in background check. Had my fingerprint on aug 26

thanks for the reply.

my uncle and his family applied in april in same field office and they were done with citizenship in july. my status online has not changed since beginning.where can i se the information what you mentioned about processing for month of feb??

thanks

zak

but i am still waiting for interview

If the background checks takes too long than the normal processing time what can I do. I have to bring my wife to USA and F2A waiting time is too long,that's I am becoming impatient. what action can I take and after what period of time?.Is there any law where it prohibits USCIS to keep the case pending after certain period of time.

congrats

did you mention about traffic tickets in n-400
