What proof of unemployment/financial hardship do I need to submit when expediting case? 

Many embassies aren't opening up because of flight restrictions. Makes no sense issuing visas and people can't fly out. A club has nothing to do with if a Embassy should open.

Interview result - approved! Good luck everyone, my ride ends here

A Natural disaster is considered a reason to expedite??? 😁
 
This morning we just had a pretty nasty earthquake here in Mexico. There all kind of cracks on the walls. A piece of the wall fell off and broke the glass of a table. 

I don’t think that is a reason for expedite. Just kidding. I just need to laugh of all this. 

More news from Madrid, Spain! Embassy opened Monday June 22 & we received our interview CR1/IR1 date for July 7th! Very excited to be wrapping this chapter of our lives up!
 
Best of luck & our prayers for all those who are waiting for embassies to open up. 

Congrats!! 🎉🎊🍾 
We are so happy too 💃 😊 Also the interview schedule for July 17 at the US embassy in Serbia 🇷🇸 finally!!!!! Oooooooo yeaaah!! 😍 
Good luck!!! 🍀 

Latest from Madrid, Spain... We just got our visa appointment scheduled for July 28!!!

There are definitely visas that are more important than others.  Unfortunately, the world doesn't work in the way it appears you want it to.  Not every embassy will be opening next week, but some will.  I'm here to pass along the information about Romania processing IR1/CR1 again - this is incredible news, and it isn't even my embassy.

Direct from the embassy consular section. I spoke to a consular officer and they’re saying they’re monitoring the covid situation so they will be closed until further notice. My guess here is 22nd when the executive order expires of 1st July when most flights start flying out and states are almost fully opened. 

Romania is back in business - seems like quite a few embassies are taking the "mission critical" advice from DOS and moving forward with the IR1/CR1 and IR2/CR2 interviews.  Excellent news.

Yes, that is my biggest fear too. Let’s hope that doesn’t happen in case they start processing.

Only 5x a day?!? I had to stop counting so I wouldn't feel too crazy lol. 😂

Once your case file reaches the embassy, status changes to Ready
so no e-mail.
 
I do check CEAC like 5x a day., so i can catch the last updated dates..not that it does me any good, lol.
 
hang in there..
 
 

Hey guys! Quick Q - do you get an email from when your case leaves NVC and is headed to the Consulate or do I just need to check ceac regularly still?
 
I hate logging into their site lol

How annoying. Almost there.
Courage 💗

@NMHayek Yes, this is what the US embassy in Jamaica said yesterday. These categories are now mission critical and are not considered part of the routine visa services that are suspended. Good news!!! Thanks for sharing!!

Congrats to all who are starting to get interviews and thank you to everyone sharing updates. You are giving me some hope....finally....

Check the FB live video for Us Embassy in Jamaica. The immigrant visa officer says that although worldwide routine visa services still have not resumed, they have been given new guidance from DOS that IR1/IR2 and CR1/CR2 are now considered mission critical. So they are scheduling interviews! Please let this be for all embassies..Fingers crossed!

@NMHayek

Thank you Hilde
thanks Backtawar Gul
what a relief!
 
I have just checked on the US Paris Embassy and nop, nothing has changed, no news, nothing. The last announcement regarding Consular process is dated...March16th.
Which means, that probably a lot of US Embassies are right now boiling, working hard and they don't show it 😉
 

What’s the difference between CR1 and IR1? 
Congratulations 🥳

Congratulations to all that got interview date today. So happy for you all.♥️✨

If I understand right.
 
CR1 stands for Conditional Resident whose been married less than 2 years and after the 2 year mark in marriage you'll have to apply for the conditions on the green card removed and IR1 stands for Immediate Relative for people whose been married longer than 2 years those green cards are valid for 10 years and have no conditions. 
 
 

Hello,
 
My interview got scheduled today for the 20th of July at the Paris embassy!
 
I hope that will give you guys some hope 🙃
