  1. Try not to stress. Just give them what they want. One day, in the near future, you will be rid of USCIS. I looked at FY to date statistics today. By my calculations, only about 1% of I-751s are actually denied. That tells me they need to just get rid of them altogether. Good luck.

  3. I agree with @OldUser. It time to throw in everything including the kitchen sink. You won't get another chance.
  4. Sadly, there is no visa which allows you to live in the US while waiting for the I-130 process. K-3 visas are just not issued much at all. Right now, there are almost 2,000,000 petitions (I-130s) waiting in line to be reviewed. See the report I linked below. Every one of them has to be evaluated by a human. In total, It will take about 18-24 months for the entire process to be complete for a spousal visa. There is no guaranteed Green card for anyone. Welcome to Visa Journey, and good luck. The immigration process is quite a ride. Number of Service-wide Forms Fiscal Year To Date (uscis.gov)
  5. We did screenshots for consulate interview, too.
  6. Apply, yes. But, it might be difficult to obtain due to immigrant intent.
  7. Then upload, and ask her to take a copy, too. Uploading will not delay the interview scheduling.
  8. It will be either Adjustment of Status inside the US (I-485, etc) or Consulare Processing (DS-260, etc).....

  10. Unfortunately, you'll have to wait to see if the visa is inside the passport. Please keep us updated as this is not common. @Boiler what are your thoughts?
  11. You are free to do so, but I don't think you would benefit. Usually, people wait for NVC to schedule. Unfortunately waiting is the hard part of immigration.
  12. One more note: Before Covid, the standard wait was up to 3 months. The system just hasn't fully recovered yet.
  13. What NVC told you is correct. Once your case has been DQ'd, it goes to the back of the line of the queue for your consulate at NVC. This is the process: 1. Case is DQ'd by NVC. 2. Case then enters NVC queue for your consulate and waits at NVC. 3. Consulate informs NVC of available interview date for upcoming month. 4. NVC schedules interviews for cases at the front of the line. 5. NVC schedules your interview when your case reaches the front of the queue for that consulate. 6. NVC notifies person of interview date via email. 7. NVC then sends case to consulate. After the interview is scheduled, it can take several days to several weeks for the consulate to receive the case.
  14. Is this a medically complicated pregnancy?
  15. Please refer to this topic:
  16. You can make short visits to the US during the process.
  17. Welcome to Visa Journey. Unfortunately, you are misinformed. Your only route is a CR-1 spousal visa. You can forget about a K-3 visa. They just don't issue them anymore. You cannot live in the US during the I-130 process. The process for you will take 18 months or so from filing to interview. Read, study, and learn the process below. Ask questions. The good folks here are eager to help. The immigration process requires a great deal of knowledge, planning, time, patience, and a significant amount of money. Good luck. Immigration is quite a ride!
  18. That attorney was wrong. You were not legally married when you filed the I-130. The proper order would have been "Meet and file"
  19. No. That I-130 and fee are gone.
  20. @jatutt Another way to explain this situation is that you were not legally married in the eyes of USCIS when you filed the original I-130, so no relationship existed to approve the I-130. Thus, a new I-130 must be filed after you consummate (meet).
  21. Agree with the others. You must consummate the marriage BEFORE filing the I-130. The I-130 you filed prior to meeting after the online marriage will be denied. The proper order should be: 1. Marry online. 2. Meet in person (no minimum time together). 3. File the I-130. It must be done in that order for USCIS to recognize the marriage. In your case, you should immediately contact USCIS to withdraw the original I-130. Refile a new I-130 after your trip to consummate the marriage. That will restart the clock. Good luck on your journey.

  23. You pay 2 fees at NVC for each visa beneficiary. Then you pay for medical exams, etc. Lastly, you pay $220 for each Green card after the visas are issued. Fees never stop until after applying for a US passport.....years later.
