Time frames are longer now .. but yes it is as accurate as a general guide can be. Each consulate has its own format for doing things once they receive your case .. how to contact, when how to schedule the medical , how to pay , how to schedule the interview etc .. so the directions really can’t be as detailed as you would like them to be. Read through the guide , follow the link, lurk on and search the Phillipines subforum , come back with specific questions as you have then.

You cant take what you don’t have It wasnt an issue at my interview

The link was on the us govt State dept site .. in the section discussing overstaying a tourist visa in India and what to do in order to be able to leave

Laws of india regarding overstay Here is the link to the govt office that must release the traveller https://indianfrro.gov.in/eservices/home.jsp

Received is not the same as complete or Documentary Qualified. So we are not sure that you are in line for the interview yet For a sense of recent waiting times, search this site for Canadian applicants for CR/IR1 visas and look at their timeline

Sorry. Amended my reply !

As per Neonred timeline .. less than 2 years.. around 1 yr if i recall correctly But this was in 2006 .. wow , I’m up for 20 yr anniversary in 2025!! 😀 congrats

As you stated it is a non household relative, they will complete an I864 with all stated documents, including documentation to show their USC or LPR status

You cannot expedite this. The GC takes 4 weeks to 12 months for no rhyme or reason. The stamped visa ( that the CBP stamped on entry ) is all that is needed until the GC comes. It can be used for b everything that the plastic GC can Im assuming they have also entered the US as well as you paying the fee .. ** Moved to Moving to the US and your new life in America “ as the question relates to life after having already entered the US.

Correct. And that was our situation exactly. Our petitioning son’s income was over the level needed but not by a whole lot, so we had our daughter’s paperwork as cosponsor all lined up and with us .. but the IO was happy with our petitioners I864, so we were able to shred the joint sponsors paperwork.

Having a joint sponsor lined up and their paper work in hand is always preferable to being told at the interview that you need a joint sponsor .. and working through a scramble to get the paperwork done and sent to the Consulate. So yes, if you have someone who clearly greatly exceeds the financial requirements then go ahead and add it to your CEAC folio. The interviewing officer will decide and nothing is lost if the joint sponsor isn’t needed.

Good news. Good to be breathing again !!

The usual recourse is to submit an I90 as soon as you get the incorrect card .. then file for I751 when that windows opens and then file for N400 when that window opens. As you have missed the first and hence second step, this is now more complex. I think you need GOOD SOLID immigration legal advice on how to step through those 3 steps, given that you are now way late on filing the I751. Better you start the ball rolling than wait for the N400 to fall over …. Not sure what else will be refused as a consequence of your whole file review. Without the I90, the system will tell you that you don’t need to file I751. But, when the case gets reviewed in person, this will be identified and will need to be sorted out. Not a simple or quick process but essential if you want to naturalise and /or know that your immigration record is clear.

Mmmm. Sounds fishy No slam dunk huh?

Major errors in interpretation occur when a statement is lifted out of a longer official statement/explanation. Context. Context. Context. K1 90 day period is not to “try and see”. It is in order to give time for each couple .. who have already signed affidavits that they are intending to marry .. note there are no caveats ,” if I like her.. If i find i really want to marry her” listed.. to complete all the arrangements they may want have in place for their ceremony

Yes he can. It is recommended that he does as much as possible to establish residency before leaving .. SSN, drivers licence, bank accounts etc as this is evidence of the overseas travel being temporary only. He can use the stamped visa as his LPR documentation to do all of this and to reenter the US. Make sure he returns within 6 months .. hopefully they will make the trip together by then.

I will say “glitch”.

Individual circumstances aren’t relevant to USCIS. Meeting the stated requirements are.

Sign what you want to. It’s not an option for this process.

Your alternate suggestion is not an option. Joint sponsor .. friend or relative who is a USC or LPR.. or she gets a better paying job or gets second job to bring her above the threshold

It means that a moderator moved your post to the forum where it best fits. Nothing to worry about .. Just an admin process that goes on all the time. It’s easier to get good answers if it’s in the “ best fit “ forum

I went through NVC stage 9 years ago and things have changed since then .. Hopefully someone more recent will respond .. https://travel.state.gov/content/dam/visas/PDF-other/NVC_role_in_IVs_for_applicants_November_2016.pdf not sure of this number is still current

They may be scheduled together by the NVC.. But if one goes ahead of the other, contact the consulate by email and give both application numbers , and ask for the two to be scheduled at the same time If you don’t yet have the first interview date letter, try calling NVC and ask them to link the two together.

I would add it as unsolicited extra documentation yes. No it wont expedite it.

Sorry to hear. Despite some statements that it would be a “slam dunk”, unfortunately most are not. Reapply for sure .. but she will have to overcome the concerns that resulted in the IO denying her .. not likely to be an easy task
