There are countless examples where NVC has informed applicants that they must contact them once a year.....not that they must complete the visa within a year. There are also examples where couple held their cases at NVC for years....by contacting NVC once a year.

I would contact NVC and inform them that you want to hold the case. In theory, they can hold the case there indefinitely as long as you contact them once a year. There are cases in which this has been done. Note: Had this been a K-1, it could NOT be stopped at NVC.

Some do....like Montreal. You can always ask other consulates when asking if they will accept the case.

Time to COMPLETELY cut ties, and seek happiness for yourself. I see nothing positive for having met with her.

Yes. Patience is the key for the US immigration process. You can ask other consulates to accept the case, but I think legal entry would be required.

Secondary evidence......not really an issue.

Timeline shows US entry via spousal visa in September 2020.

The number of non-immediate relative family based visas is capped every year....and there are thousands of people already in line.

He could just file under the general provision option (5 year rule)....not as spouse of a US citizen (3 year rule). That eliminates having to provide all the marriage evidence. Looks like he will be able to file in September.

There is another option: Uganda -OR- 2. Submit a written request to the Director of Interpol, located at Plot 12 Mabua Road Kololo, PO BOX 43003, Kampala. The request must contain an explanation as to the need for the certificate, photocopies of the biodata pages of the passport for non-citizens and National ID for citizens, and fingerprints must be taken from Interpol Kololo. Processing time is approximately two (2) weeks. Certified Copies: There are no certified copies Alternate Documents: There are no alternate documents. Exceptions: There are no exceptions. Comments: Although Certificates of Good Conduct are valid for only 6 months according to Interpol, they are valid for two years for U.S. immigrant visa purposes.

The "expert" on MSNBC is ranting about how this is going to raise prices....even after both Canada and Mexico have announced they are bolstering their borders and delaying tariffs. Even I can see that, at this point, this is not a trade war with Canada and Mexico. It is a war against illegal entry and illegal drugs.

@Ottox CURRENT annual income is king....not what was reported in past years. Current annual income is calculated as follows for an employee: Gross income from most recent pay stub multiplied by the number of pay periods per 12 months. Example: If his gross income from January pay stub is $4000, then, right now, current annual income is $48,000. As stated by @Edward and Jaycel, that information will be needed at the NVC stage.

A DS-260 would have been filed, by you, at the NVC stage. Sounds like it never got that far. An I-485 would have been done by you inside the US. Sounds like you never did that, either.

If you have ever submitted a DS-260, #1 is "Yes". If you have ever submitted an I-485, #2 is "Yes". Otherwise, the answers are "No".

Another vote for both.

So, Mexican President is sending 10,000 troops to the border to stop illegals and drugs.....Looks like Trump's tariffs work after all.

Wife never changed her name. No issues. In fact, it has made things much easier.

If he was required to file taxes, yet didn't, there will be issues. If he was not REQUIRED to file taxes, he can explain that.

The OP is not at the N-400 stage. OP is at I-485 stage.....where the marriage certificate is a legal name change document.

There is something seriously amiss here......time for someone to come clean.
