  1. What do those 2 months mean? It should say 10 years at least, right? It's just confusing so I want to make sure I understand what's going on.
  2. Greetings, A US citizen who I know filed I-130 for their married son 2 weeks ago. The beneficiary and his family are in the US legally. They came here with a parole under Uniting for Ukraine program. The receipt indicated their classification is 203 a3 which is correct. I just helped them create an account online and found that the system says the processing time is 2 months. The screenshot is attached. The petitioner has already filed I-130 for their son in 2014 (F2B preference) when she was an LPR. She became a USC in 2018 and the preference changed to F1 automatically. I-130 was approved in 2020. However, the petitioner's son got married before she became a USC. VJ members told me at that time that there was nothing that could be done because the petition was invalid the moment he got married and they had to file a new I-130 and wait for 10+ years. So, based on what I wrote, how is it possible that the system says the estimated time is 2 months? I know the estimated time is most often incorrect by several months, but it shouldn't be years.
  3. It was relatively quick. I don't remember how long because it was more than a year ago but I think it was just 2-3 weeks from the moment the Ukrainian citizen got it.
  4. Non-Ukrainian spouse I was taking about isn't Rissian. But anyway thanks for letting me know that someone with the same situation has successfully got through.
  5. Greetings Does anyone know cases when non-Ukrainian immediate relatives (e.g. spouses) of Ukrainian beneficiaries of U4U program got travel authorization from CBP? We've been waiting for a spouse to get the response while his entire family has already got approval 3 weeks ago.
  6. I'd like to provide an update for those who might be interested to know. When I filled out I-134 for a non-Ukrainian husband I provided explanation in the additional information section explaining that he's a spouse of a Ukrainian citizen. All forms for the family were approved in 2 days. Then we created one account on uscis.gov for Ukrainian wife where included her husband and their child. We confirmed information, testified for vaccination, and submitted it. In a couple of hours the wife and the child received travel authorization forms but the husband didn't. It has been almost 3 weeks and his case is still pending. Listening to an immigration lawyer I found that many families with non-Ukrainian immediate relatives are reporting the same problem. It looks like CBP approves travel authorization for Ukrainian citizens at this moment; all others have to wait. I called USCIS a couple of times. They don't have any updates and don't know what's going on in CBP.
  7. You may also want to include screenshots of your text messages between you and your spouse. My interviewer readily took them when I brought them to the interview; however, I think it's the least important.
