We have contacted USCIS and requested out case be expedited due to overseas orders. We sent them a copy of our orders and a letter explaining the situation. This was a few days ago and we have not received a response. I am unsure how long I should wait before calling again.

Hello all,

So my Australian wife is pregnant and stressing and I am just stressing to say the least. We submitted our petition for the i-485 and it was accepted in April. My wife has not recieved her green card and her status is "Adjustment of Status". I was unexpectedly and with little notice selected for orders to Naples, Italy and will be departing Nov 9th.

Firstly, I have called USCIS and requested for an expedition of her green card to due overseas pcs orders. Upon request I faxed a cover sheet, letter explaining the situation and my orders with her name on them. Was this the right thing to do?

Secondly, we are having troubles figuring out what is required of my wife for Italy to give her the Mission visa required to stay in Italy for the entirity of my orders (She is on my orders). I am assuming she is applying for a visa as an Australian citizen? I am still learning the ropes of international travel. It's very different from arriving on an aircraft carrier, any kind of help or advice would really be appreciate. I really don't want to seperate from my wife or miss the birth of my first child.

Thanks in advance for any help or advice.
