Did you have to upload the documents? How long did it take you till you were able to upload them from the moment you paid the fees?

 

We actually had to sent them by snailmail, so I'm afraid I cannot help with this. Hope it's soon for you!

Thats normal until they review it. It will say at NVC

Great, thank you for calming my mind !

Hi there and congrats to everybody who got a case closed .

Our package was delivered to the NVC on 5 Feb, but I am somewhat confused. On the website it still says that we have to submit the documents. We called and they said that they did receive them, but I just want to make sure that this is normal and the next change would be "At NVC"?

Thanks very much and fingers crossed for quick processing for everybody!

Hello :)!

I would like to ask for your help.

We, both students, applied for a CR-1 last month (waiting for NOA2) and we hope for it to be approved so that I can move to the US in the second quarter of 2018 after finishing my studies.

I have the opportunity for an exchange on a J-1 this fall. The exchange would be over by the end of the year and I would leave the US again to wrap up my studies. There is no immigration intent for the J-1 period.

We have a couple of concerns.

1. How likely is it to get a J-1 approved during an ongoing CR-1 application given that there is no immigration intent?
2. If I apply and the J-1 is denied, would this
   1. impact the CR-1 application 
   2. make it harder for me to visit (no problems at all so far on WVP)
3. I may be subject to the two-year rule (indirect funding through the government is up for interpretation).
   1. If this would be the case, is there any chance to have a waiver processed by Q2 2018?
   2. Could I somehow ensure that I would not be granted the J-1 if the two-year rule applied? So apply conditionally in a sense?

Thanks so much for your help :)!

Hi there,

We recently filed a CR-1 application and just got the NOA1. The application was sent to the Potomac service center. As of April 30, 2017, the USCIS page says this:

Note that this says 2015. Can anyone confirm that this is a mistake (maybe someone has called them)?

Thanks a lot
