Thank you so much for replying 🙏🏻 One past question did you mean that first my case will get approval and then it will get converted to CR1?

Oh, I see. Okay, thanks!

Maybe another year before IL at least.

PD and service center is irrelevant it's all about DQ once your case is at NVC.

Maybe 6 to 7 months until IL.

That is true Amrit. PD and service center is irrelevant once the case is NVC. Another 6-7 months you say? Why do you think so? I have been waiting for 5 years, maybe another 6-7 months more. Thanks for your reply.

Hi,

I am a green card holder and residing in the US. I got my visa through the EB1 category. My husband is in India. He was documentarily qualified from NVC on January 29th, 2021. I know things are very backlogged. However, is anyone in the same boat? Does anyone know where we can check which immigrant visa interviews are being scheduled at the US consulate in Mumbai? I just want to get an estimate of the wait time. I will appreciate your response.

Thank you! 

What will they say? My interview is over too. I didn't get the green card because the visa bulletin was backlogged. It became current in the October visa bulletin. 

Hi,

My priority date became current in the October Visa bulletin. I had applied on March 29th, 2018 in the EB1-B category. My interview was over on January 2019. Is anyone in the same boat? Has your case been updated on the USCIS website? Have you received any notification? Please share your experience if you have. Thanks!

Hi dxb,

Thanks for your response. Yes, interview was over in local USCIS office. So, you say it is in Texas Service Center. Good to know!

Thanks much,

Tilottama

Thanks Arken. Not blaming anyone other than my fate   Yes, nothing more tod other than wait. Just would get some comfort in talking to someone in the same boat.

Thanks,

Tilottama

Well, True. It does not really matter. Jut feel bad about the whole thing - having to wait for a very long time even after my interview is done...bad luck I must say - increased demand in this category and then going into retrogression

Thanks!

Hi Boilder,

Thanks for your response. Yes, I am checking that. However, can you say which service center it will be stored at?

Hi,

I am an EB1 b applicant from India. My interview was over on Jan 31st but because the EB1 is in retrogression and has in fact gone back to Jan 1 2012 in the latest bulletin I am wondering how long it will take to get approved. Which service center does my case go to after the interview is done? I can check the processing times on the basis of that information. 

Is anyone else in the same boat? Feel so disappointed and helpless.

Thanks and good luck,

Tilottama 

Thank you!

Hi Boiler,

Thanks for your reply. So, that something can be done to quicken the backlog processing. The thing is my daughter, and I are in the US. My husband is in India. His consular processing will start only when ours is processed. I thought being an EB1B applicant I will be able to hasten the process, and we can be together as a family. However, now EB1B for India seems to have been slowed down soooo much!

Thanks,

Tilo

Hi,

My PD is March 29, 2018. My interview got over on Jan 31st, 2019. I am still waiting for the green card because of the back log of EB1 in Visa Bulletin. Is it worthwhile to write to the local Congressman? Has anyone done this? Please share your views on this.

Thanks,

Tilottama

Hi ColoradoBeauty,

Thanks so much for your reply. All the best for your interview on October 25th! 

It took 11 months for you. I guess I just have to wait patiently

Good luck to you!

Best,

Tilottama

Hello!

I am waiting for my interview call from the Denver Field office. My priority date for joint I-140 and I-485 application is March 29, 2018, and I applied in the EB1 B category. I-140 got approved on April 9th and I received the EAD combo card on June 29th. Then the last update I received was that my case has been transferred to the National Benefits Center in Missouri. And, then just waiting.

Did any of you get interview call from the Denver field office? If yes, after how long? When was your priority date? Please share! It will give me some comfort.

Thanks and Good luck!

Tilo
