Hey congratulations man. Was she asked about public charge questions? If you can help us out since she’s the recent one with issued visa. TIA

No, they didn't ask her any questions about the public charge nor about the healthcare coverage.

Hi guys, thank you so much for your help!  My wife had her interview on 7/7/2020, visa issued 7/9/2020. Hope it goes quick and smooth for all of you.

Email NVC. If they agree that your case should be expedited, they will. 

The expedition is solely up to the Embassy to accept or deny. NVC only transmit your request to the assigned Embassy.

Hi @Torabora

Which country u are from? Which country's embassy? 

And when your documents were qualified from NVC (when did u get DQ)? 

From the U.S. and wife is from Tunisia. DQ'd on 6/15/2020.

Guys, I can't believe it. NVC has sent the case to the Embassy last friday. We got a call today from the Embassy to schedule an interview date. They gave us 7/7/2020. NVC is en TGV mode.

but when did you submit to NVC? (so we can evaluate how fast they reviewed yours)

My first submission was 3/13/2020, they requested more documents on 4/18/2020, rejected my 864EZ and requested to submit just I-864 I submitted on 5/28/2020. DQ'd on 6/15/2020. They're going on a bi-weekly basis.

DQ'd today 6/15/2020 at 11:00 AM

What exactly was provided alongside the I-864 (in terms of the tax return(s) + evidence of current income)?

2019 tax return + W2's for 2019 and paystubs for the last 4 months

Hi, I received a message from NVC today saying:" ToraBora does not meet the minimum income requirement to sponsor the intending immigrants for this case. The consular officer will make a decision regarding this requirement at the time of the interview. For more information, please visit https://www.uscis.gov/i-864p. To avoid delays, an additional Affidavit of Support Form I-864 for a joint sponsor may be submitted. FINANCIAL SPONSORSHIP RESPONSIBILITIES: Financial sponsors, joint sponsors, and applicants should be aware of responsibilities when signing an I-864 and the consequences for a sponsored immigrant's acceptance of federal means-tested public benefits. For more information visit https://nvc.state.gov/aos"

I think this is an error as my income for this year should be around 38k, and 2019 tax return gross income is 24k which is highrer than the 125% of HHS Poverty ($21,550 for 2 household members)

Should I start looking for a sponsor or am I good, as I can provide more pay stubs to the CO? Thank you.

I originally submitted all the requested docs on 3/8. Everything was accepted today 5/15, they requested w2's for 2019 which I did submitted on the same day. Do you guys know how long it will take them to accept the w2?

Great, If you dont mind can you be specific what reason you gave on financial hardship. My expedite had been twice declined.😢

It's a lame excuse, just mentioned that I'm paying 2 rentals here in the u.s and abroad. That's all.

Is your case Cr-1?

IR-1.

I submitted all my documents and paid my fees on 2/26/2020 

2/27/2020 I submitted for expedite

3/17/2020 I received the same email but only stating they would contact me for the interview soon. You must submit and put all fees first 

The thing is all fees are paid, and docs submitted.

Hi, I just received an email from NVC that the embassy is willing to expedite my IR1 case.

" Dear Sir/Madam:

The U.S. Embassy or Consulate is willing to expedite this case when all required fees, forms, and documents have been received and reviewed.

Please log onto the Department of State’s Consular Electronic Application Center (CEAC) website, ceac.state.gov, to ensure you have paid all required fees and all documents have an ‘Accepted’ status. You will receive a ‘Documentarily Qualified’ notice indicating the NVC has completed all processing, at which point your case will be automatically forwarded to the U.S. Embassy or Consulate."

How's this even expedited if it's going to wait for NVC to review & accept the documents?? Thank you!

I am waiting for approval of I-130, I did an Inquiry and they answered this, what does it mean?

 

The status of this service request is:

On 10/22/2019, you contacted USCIS concerning your I-130 to notify us that you believe your case is outside of our normal processing time. Below is a summary of what we found and how the issue has been or may be resolved.

Your case is currently being adjudicated. You should receive a notice of action* within 90 days.

*A notice of action may be in a form of Approval Notice, Denial Notice, Transfer Notice , Request for Evidence, or Notice of Intent to Deny.

Did u taken any action or request for approval at USCIS ? Or normally approval ? Plz inform me.

Yes, I talked to my local congressman and senator's office to followup. Case was approved in 2 weeks after submitting the inquiries. Also as long as your PD is current they must approve your case.
