TJL reacted to Chancy in Stimulus Checks for non US Citizen Spouse
Not true. The stimulus check is a tax credit, something that eligible taxpayers are entitled to. It is not a publicly-funded benefit like food stamps that casts doubt on someone's financial capacity. Stop with the fearmongering.

SO EXCITED!
Wifey was approved in MNL on a surprise Expedited Appointment for her CR-1 today.
Counsul told her FOUR weeks until delivery (possibly due to COVID,) but I'm sure we'll see it sooner than that.
SUPER STOKED!

I've already answered this question on my other posts. All you have to do is look at my profile and read the other post. Good luck!
(I have a personal policy of not responding to questions that I've already answered in other posts, because it's very easy to just review the answers by looking at my other posts. Not trying to be rude, but don't want to repeat myself. You're probably the 80th person to ask me how we did it.)

TJL got a reaction from Troy B in MNL CR-1 Expedite Approved During Embassy Closure
See timeline (and all heavy notes listed there) for context.
6/29 I submitted an e-mail inquiry to the Embassy asking about potential reopening dates and if spouse/family visas would be prioritized in light of the Presidential Proclamations, etc.
6/29 10AM Received form letter email back from Embassy saying they were still closed, reopening unknown, etc. - But to provide case information for "quick resolution" when they *DID* reopen
6/29 8:37PM Responded and provided requested info.
6/29 8:46PM Wife (Beneficiary) called me to tell me that the Embassy had just called her and set her up for an interview on 7/02. (!!!!!!!!!!)
6/29 (Later) Received written email confirmation indicating that our "request for an expedited interview" had been approved with the date and time. (We didn't ask for this, but are certainly glad.)
Of note, one of the questions they asked in the auto response was the date of her medical, which was in February (therefore expiring in August.) Perhaps the upcoming expiration of that medical prompted them to consider an expedite.
Either way, we're excited, nervous, but ready. We've been ready. I'll update as the situation warrants.
We owe a great debt of gratitude to many folks in this forum who have provided guidance and insight - albeit sometimes more comical than useful. Thank you.

Thank you! I was not there for the interview as they literally gave us 48 hrs notice. From what I understand, they're not allowing spouses in for the interviews. I believe they used to do this before, because when I was there to get my affidavit to get married, I saw spouses. But, both the correspondence they sent to us pre covid and for this one indicated that the only person they would allow in was the applicant.
