    Am in F2a visa category and my priority date is 22nd August 2016 , I last got an email from NVC in march stating that all my documents had been received and that am in queue awaiting a visa interview appointment. Anytime I check my visa status it reads "AT NVC" want to when it's likely I will receive an email for my interview appointment and when my status at NVC will change ?

    Hello, my PD was 6 June 2016 - received IL on 1st May 2018, Interview was 21 June 2018. You should receive your IL anytime from now. Your visa status will change once you receive your IL and documents are received by the local consular.

    All the best.

    You have a "common law marriage" to the man in your home country. USCIS does recognize common law marriage, so you are indeed "officially married". So you really don't have a problem there. Your problem is you will have to officially divorce this man before you can move forward. If he is willing to cooperate, then you may be able to accomplish a divorce easily without returning to your home country. If he is not willing to cooperate, it will be more difficult.

    Well said indeed... Get a notarized affidavit - signed by both of you - that you had a common law marriage which was not legally binding.  Then get a letter from the AG stating that your marriage was not legally recognized and no records exists.  As she says, he must be willing to cooperate.  What about your kids?

    Finally, I thank God, am through with the procedure.  Its long and nerve wrecking.  Any questions are welcome.

     

     

    Finally, I thank God, am through with the procedure.  Its long and nerve wrecking.  Any questions are welcome.

    Case complete at NVC 24/02/2018 - after a checklist.  PD June 6 2016.  Interview notification rcd on 30 April 2018. 

    Interview date 21/06/2018. 

     

    After receipt of IL - I waited till 1st week of June to do the medicals - reason being they can expire if you do them too early.  Did medicals at IOM Nrb on 4th & 6th June.

    It is a two days process.  I did obtain some vaccines beforehand to save on costs.  Medicals turned out fine.

    My time for interview was 6.30am. Got there around 6am and there was already a queue outside. There was no order outside and some people who had their interviews at 7am.. were in the queue before me but it doesnt really matter.

    after security check, you get inside and pick your number and wait for your turn.  First screening by a local lady - checking if docs are okay, few questions - who petitioned? previous marital status, your petitioners taxes  - she also checks if all docs are in order - and collects the passports and takes finger printing. ( I did not have his 2017 taxes - but I submitted w44 which she accepted)

    Then, you go out again and wait for your turn to the consular.  Waited for about 20 minutes and I was called.

     

    She was very friendly, Questions: Who has petitioned? was he married before? when did you meet for the first time? when did he last come home? how many kids do you have? where does he stay? Then a thorough look at the documents - too many - then a look at some charts on her wall - as she types - Then she says everything looks fine. am relieved.
