Unless Sweden is different, the USC does not need to be there for the interview.

Just from reading about this case, I think that USCs should not attend interviews so the COs can't pull this stunt

With no acknowledgement of receipt of your response after about 5 weeks I would contact USCIS via phone or online inquiry.

Someone might be able to get you an answer.

If they claim your response was not received you will be able to remedy it 'again'

Check the status of your application online, you might see an indication that the documents have been received.

After that you just have to wait.

I think you have to give them about 90 days. 

I-94 has gone digital

Try https://i94.cbp.dhs.gov/I94/#/home to get that info

Mention and correct it at every step in the process where you see comes up again and document it.

By the time you guys get to the embassy stage it will be corrected.

Mistakes like this should be corrected sooner than later

TSA does not check stamps. Just looking for a valid acceptable ID. A US ID gets you through without much of a glance.

You stated you have a Mildep ID. Have her use that as her primary ID.

While the TSA may not have authority/need to get her status, you guys will be at an airport and CBP is right there.

Just the W7 and its supporting document(s) needed.

IRS does not really care about you immigrant status.

You just have to meet the requirements to apply for an ITIN.

My spouse is outside the country and we filed and got her an ITIN last year.

Took a long time to get her original documents back so certifying your passport is a smart move.

Did you click submit after uploading all the documents?

If you did then I would say call NVC for assistance.

If you did not get the option to click submit then you are missing some documents that needs to be uploaded

If you were instructed to mail documents then that's what the message is referring to thought NVC has done their best to reduce/eliminate documents mailed in

if you are trying to fill out the pdf form and it does not print, you might have one or more issues with you computer, or pdf reader. Rebooting, downloading a fresh copy of the application, trying a different computer or different pdf software are the options I see available to you.

Another option which I think is better is to fill out the application online. I presume you are trying to file the I-130

The form has provision for mailing and residential address.

I would fill out multiple copies, explain the situation and submit the one that makes the most sense to the immigration officer.

I think you will end up submitting the one that has your future home as your residential address.

Just be prepared on the off chance you need the other one.

also yes have the contract just in case too.

Good luck

They earlier you update your address, the better.

Your case will be sent to an office that has jurisdiction over your home address.

I don't see a problem.

FYI On some of the USCIS documentation (if I remember clearly), you are supposed to update your address when you move.

Life happens, people move. USCIS understands that

Contact SSA to get that straightened out.

Keep a copy of all documents just in case.

You don't want to end up with your records tied to multiple SSN.

File Form AR-11, Alien’s Change of Address Card, or online at www.uscis.gov/addresschange, file out address change with USPS, check online status weekly. With that I think you should have everything covered.

Also if you have your email on file, you will get an email if there is an RFE

We got an RFE and received both email and mail notification

The 3rd stimulus is a credit on your 2021 tax. So if you have not or will not get it based on previous tax filing, you will have to claim it when you file your tax next year. 2021 taxes

On the I-130, I think there is provision to list siblings.

Then at the NVC stage, can't the sister be added as a derivative beneficiary?

Not sure how that works in a parent sibling relationship

Stop stressing. They clerks at the county almost certainly gave you the correct info about your marriage certificate.

I think that if you are still in doubt, request for certified copy of your marriage certificate as if you lost the original or just want a additional copy.

like my birth certificate, they copy I requested recently was certified and valid like what was give to my parents 30 years ago

For LPR, it is not immediate but if she files now, the case would be processed and pending at NVC for an available visa.

Once she naturalizes, contact NVC to change her status from LPR to citizen and his case will become immediate.

I don't know what the timeline is but I think trying to calculate the timeline is not the best way to go about this.

File now so that by the time she naturalizes about early 2023 his case would have already completed the USCIS and likely NVC stage ready for the embassy interview.

Hello,

 

My spouse who is a USC petitioned my son to come here. We got the approval April 2020. I didn't really bother much on processing it yet coz plans changed due to the pandemic. It will expire next month, the 16th if I won't start processing for the immig fees. So I paid it last week. My only concern is, my son's passport is expired already. My mom back home wasn't able to renew it due to the lockdown in our city and senior citizens and kids weren't allowed to go out. They lifted it this month already so my mom was able to get an appt to passport renewal. 

 

My son's passport won't be release before April 16. So that means I wont be able to upload his new passport info in the CEAC portal. 

 

Are they gonna reject or deny the application if I won't be able to provide it by April 16 or the i-130 approval is extended since I already paid the fees. 

 

I'm just on a panic mode right now coz i don't want to go back to zero on processing again.

 

Any advice will be appreciated. 

 

Thanks bunch

 

 

Paying the fee, restarts the one year clock. It shows that there was contact. That will buy you the time you need.

You can call NVC to confirm.
