How can you get a second job when you don’t even have an EAD for a first one? 

I am USC

You did also apply for EAD and AP along with AOS, right?

Yes.

Umm I knew all about the cr1 visa but I didn’t want to marry in Mexico.... how do u know I didn’t research? I did all this on my own no lawyer... I did plenty of research. 

Way back when we began this the wait time was like 3 months. 

Why leave condescending comments that offer no value? At least geowrians comment offers information for others who may see this....

Can’t even get a NY drivers license until we have EAD 😞 

Came here legally. Want to work legally. Pay all their fees and give them everything they want and then wait half a year with no money. I guess I’ll get a second job 😞

Our AOS application was received 7/27 

its really 6 months until the EAD ? I thought was 90 days 😞

Our ASC appointment is scheduled for 8/15.... how long after this date will we have EAD?? 

Gracias 

I ended up calling the help line number on the US customs website where I retrieved my fiancé’s I 194. after using the automated call directory I was instructed to call the US customs where our I 194 was processed, for us that was Detroit. 

I called the customs at the Detroit airport and they said that sometimes when the visas are scanned that they “pick up extra letters” 🙄

we went today and successfuly filed for a US SSN so it all worked out. Still annoying 

my fiance printed his I 194 document from the website but it shows him name incorrect..

his name is Arturo Sandoval Arechiga however the I 194 lists his name as Arturo Z Sandoval Arechiga

we tried the retrieval process on the website several times, each time the document appearing with the Z following his first name. 

what is this? is this normal?  please help

My fiancé was approved in Juarez on October 23 and the CEAC site says approved. However we have no DHL tracking number.... how long will this take to be posted ?

Do not book anything until you have it in your hands! I went to Sinaloa after my interview and waited there. Took 1 week

Thanks for your reply ! 😊 It's looking like the wait time is under three weeks for most 

In the Mexico portal is says 3 weeks to receive your visa in Mexico City via DHL following approval at interview...

anyone from Mexico City , does it really take this long ? We are just trying to get an accurate timeline so that we can book flights. Thank you 

Thank you for answering my dumb question! I realized it was in the directions soon after posting 🙄 Lol 

muchas gracias ! 

Sorry if this makes me seem very dumb... pero.... 

my fiance scheduled ASC appointment to be preformed in Mexico City. Does he have to also schedule a medical exam or does the ASC include the medical.... my understanding is that the ASC is just finger prints and photo, and that he needs to schedule a medical exam 

please help! Confused 😞

If you did your ASC and biometrics appointments in DF please be so kind and give us some info about how it went....

u pay there for the medical exam? Or has to be paid ahead of time? You brought vaccination documentation? 

Please help 🙏🏻 

Muchas gracias xo 

Felicidades! Me and my fiancé have our interview scheduled for October 23rd 😱 

Your interview will go smooth and you will soon have that visa in your hands! 😊

When you are nervous or stressed remember God is always with you ❤️

Buena suerte 👍🏻

Thank you guys so much! We started using safari and couldn't understand what was going on hahaha. Firefox worked beautifully! Muchas gracias 😊 

Trying to fill out DS 160... can only get through the first page. We click on the button to advance to page two and we are taken to a page that says "session timed out". Page one is only taking us 2-3 minutes to fill out. We have tried over and over what's going on? 

135 days of waiting.... 😞 there are people in this thread with similar timelines to me and they are almost finished. Wth?

I joked about buying my fiancee a ticket to Mexico and then we could take a run for it, but she didn't think that was funny. Something about spiders, scorpions, dirty etc.

Ummm you should fill her in that Mexico really isn't that "dirty"..... 

I feel your pain! I got my NOA1 on March 27 and still have heard nothing. My visa journey timeline keeps getting pushed back over and over :/ But i have faith we will hear our good news very soon 

god bless

Though you are one of the lucky ones that doesn't have to mail them anything, so never mind  Just tend to clarify that because for countries like mine where you have to send documents ahead, that means you need them ready at least a month earlier than other people.

Could one of you guys link me to or explain where you find if you need to mail in or not? Sorry for my nievaty I'm just trying to figure this all out
