I'm going to do another purge of "final" statuses next week. The current list is composed of about 25% of those, so it will free up slots to add more Dec. cases since we are starting to see a good chunk of them towards the end of the list. So much so that I likely missed a few in the totals today.

Not a bad day at all!! as long as its 100+ approvals, im super happy!!  Finally they even approved 2 from 12th Dec!! Geooooooo!!! Jio! (This in hindi language means long live Geo! )

I completely understand what she must be feeling.. im in d same boat... 
Hope its all good and speedy for all of us here

Oh sad to hear that.. wish you the best of health always.. 
I have read that there's a test called Sputum test they may order of they are doubtful your hepB is communicable/active. These results take 6 weeks to come. Other than that if you can convince them you're fine with your lab reports n xrays, they should have no problem. 
Still read up on it and take care of urself...

Well, the optimal solution would be to try to hold on to the current job at least until the visa is issued. For AOS, a joint sponsor and/or assets are definitely available. If that's not possible, then I would suggest proceeding with the process normally while he tries to find another job (and provide assets with the I-134 in case it will be accepted). If the CO still doesn't like that but is otherwise fine with issuing the K-1, then it will be put into AP pending a new I-134. As long as it doesn't expire (and you can request that they keep it active), it will just sit in AP until he can prove that he meets the financial support requirements. Once they get a new I-134, they can review it and then issue the visa (assuming it's good). It'll delay the process, but it's better than a denial and having to refile.
 
Edit: Note that the medical expires, so a new one might be requested if that time period has passed by the time a new I-134 is submitted.

it might be worth having a co-sponsor. 

I'm sorry to hear about his situation.
 
Yes, you can use assets instead of income. He will need 3x the federal poverty level (100%) for the I-134, and 125% of it for the I-864 (during AOS). In some circumstances, they may only use the difference between the necessary income and what he makes, then 3x that for assets. Assets can only be included if they can be converted to cash within 1 year without harm to the sponsor (i.e. he can't count his primary residence - even w/o a mortgage - since he still needs a place to live). He will need to provide the last 3 years of tax transcripts (not just returns) as well.
 
It would not be a bad idea to have a joint sponsor lined up in case they do request it. Even if he does meet the minimums, they look at the totality of his circumstances to determine the risk of not being able to recover funds if you became a public charge, and could request a joint sponsor. Hopefully it's not needed, but having one lined up just in case would be beneficial.

Lots of work today. Most of the "Others" are Response to RFE received.

I have a question related to K1 beneficiaries in India. (or if anyone else knows about this ) 
Can anyone please confirm if we can schedule the medical exam or interview at embassy in India after we receive the NVC case number by calling the center, or beneficiary needs to wait till the file reaches the embassy? 
 
Thanks  
 
P.S. 73 days and counting 
 

This is what most of the forums say but i dont think the concept of workday is correct. For me that number is 901. 
I wonder how there are 901 computer workdays excluding weekends and holidays, in a year of 365 days?! 
Unless, it means the number of central computer day for all computers in a centre go sequentially (different series for CSC, TSC, VSC etc) . But this number can max be 999. 
Its a lil confusing. any thoughts @geowrian? 

Awesome Geo You rock! 
Atleast they did work! Im so happy
m just wondering that no. Of cases worked in ur sheet are 3467... can you not add more to make it 5000 total tracked? This way more of dec can come within the mix. What say? 
 

Hey all.
 
The last i-129F November filing thread went past 200 pages and was closed by the admin.
 
I am creating a new thread, so the community can still be in touch and help out each other  

seems about right... So then for sure we'll have 60+ approvals tomorrow! yayyy    

They do this sometime...people work overtime or just put in hours over the weekend. There's rarely approvals on those types of events. I would expect the approvals to go through later today. My guess is they can't just approve and somebody has to sign off first?

HI , I waited two weeks before calling NVC, have been told that my petition was send to embassy, I tracked it ( someone here posted link to youtube how can be done ) and  show that next day embassy was receiving it.At this point she is ready to fill DS160 and hopefully in a month have appointment in embassy.

It doesn't really matter tbh. You can't sponsor a tourist visa so having your own visa doesn't have an impact on the process. Also, invite letters usually don't help the process (again, because you can't sponsor a tourist visa)...and sometimes they backfire as they show ties to the US. CBP generally doesn't care why somebody is coming to the US. They care about why somebody is compelled to leave the US, which means proving ties to return home.

You got it. Best wishes.

Thanks Geo this helps.. i guess my family would wait till the time i get my k1, give my wedding of course a reason to visit US, and show ties back to india so of course they r cming back
