Ok .. I'm pretty sure once they have reviewed the additional documents they asked you guys to submit, someone from the Embassy will email with the next step, rather that's to schedule a second interview or drop his passport off at DHL

said we should schedule second appointment

My husband and I had a second interview last month but we received the interview date via email. Did you have to schedule your first interview?

No I didn’t have to book the first appointment. Got a email with appointment date. 

Has anyone been asked to submit documentation via DHL then asked to schedule a second interview? When i try to get the interview it says no appointments available at this time. Anyone know when they schedule interviews for Accra for 221g?

I'm also on adminstrative processing but with embassy accra ghana. Was told to submit documentation with passport to dhl sent it. 2 weeks later received email stating they want us to book a second appointment. Have been checking to book keeps saying no appointment available anyone had this happen or advice?

We where asked to book a interview but everytime we go to book it says no appointments available. Anyone know when appointments are usually available for Accra?

a year, But wouldn't advise that long.

im guessing it looks sketchy to them if you take that long like what where you waiting on? 

For the AP is there a time period you have to submit the items they are asking for after the interview?

Was asked to bring a Letter from my sponsers explaining specific plans to support my husband. Any idea what exactly that want in the letter? The sponsers are my parents.

Was your receipt# by chance a IOE#?

 

The sent is when you mailed it. NOA1 is that received received noted on your NOA1 letter (I-797).

 

So whenever you mailed it that day is your sent date. The date USCIS received it noted on the letter you received is the NOA1 date. Or PD date.

It says my recieved date on the paper work as 07/13/2018 and it says my notice date is 07/05/2019 so not sure which one to use as the sent date and the noa1 date or am i suppose to try and remember back to when i put the paperwork in the mail to send it to USCIS.

Just a little tip. When spouse arrives. Live your life have fun. But also keep a folder for your Removal of Conditions evidence. So adding to bank statements,tax filed together,  bills, health care, life insurance, lease, mortgage, the trips taken, pictures taken, letters sent to you bot, license showing same address.

Keep in folder then when time to file you have everything at your finger tips.

But most of all have fun and enjoy and for at least 21 months forget about Immigration and enjoy your spouse.

You are so right. I miss him like crazy and will be more then happy to be done with immigration stuff for awhile. We have it in our plans to move states would you recommend to do that after the ROC or we can do it in the 2 year time frame. 

Also i was trying to file out my timeline and for some reason keeps saying the dates i put in i think contradict. I think it was the question asking when you filed your I130 i was putting in the date i sent it to uscis but then the date that i got my noa1 is to far off or something idk.

You getting way aheda of yourself but forst no the spouse you has to be a citizen also.

 

General Eligibility Requirements

Have been living in marital union with the U.S. citizen spouse, who has been a U.S. citizen during all of such period, during the 3 years immediately preceding the date of filing the application and up until examination on the application

 

1. is there a reason why it takes so long. Yes they are busy. Plus remember I have also a Citizenship in the works so my petitions were combined so I am now in the Naturalization line and well for Houston it's very backlogged. There are other places takes 3 to 4 months from filing to oath. Not here.

Plus the majority that filed when I did already have there 10 year green card now they are filing for citizenship. That's their choice.

 

2. Who cares if it gives them the upper hand. If you arrive in US after 2 year anniversary and many citizens also arrive after you get 10 year green cad pure and simple. If people want the 10 year green card all they have to do is delay and make sure they arrive after the 2 year wedding anniversary. Everyone has that choice to do so.

You are deff right. Will deal with that hurdle when we get there. Thank you for the insight. 

Has anyone from ghana gone to an interview recently and do they need the healthcare thing i thought it didn't pass. I believe you are 100% good on your evidence. Pray and everything will go well in Jesus Name. We are also waiting on my spouses interview. All the best.

Well the 2 years green card is a green card. But i get your question. We are going through this now and citizenship filing.

90 days from the day you become LPR (Legal Permanent Resident) you can file within that 90 day window your I-751 to remove conditions to get 10 year green card.

 

Then 1 year later 90 days from your 3 year anniversary as a LPR you are eligible to file for citizenship. As longg as you are still married to your US citizen spouse.

 

We filed ROC (Removal of Conditions) 19 months ago. And filed for Citizenship 8 months ago.

Thank you for the info. I'm trying to find all this out now so i have an idea going forward when my spouse is here. Is there a reason the condition removal takes so long? So from your reply you can start filing for your spouse to become a citizen even when you are waiting for the removal of conditions ( as long as it's been 3 years of your LPR status)? 

Is this all the same for a spouse that isn't a citizen and they are also just a LPR if after 3 years of their spouses LPR the spouse can file for citizenship even if the person that filed for them isn't a citizen themselves? I was told that if you are a permanent resident filing for your spouse the whole process takes about 3 years start to finish so doesn't that give them an upper hand cuz there spouse is always going to be issued a 10 year green card and don't have to go though any process of getting conditions removed. 

(sorry about so many questions just wanna be informed about everything)

Does anyone know how long it takes to take the conditions off the CR1 visa? Also is there a certain wait period your spouse will have to wait before they can file to become a citizen?

Same rule applies married 2 years or more on entry 10 year green will be issued. Before 2 years married 2 yer green card will be issued.

after you remove the conditions on the 2 year green card do you then get issued a normal green card there after? Also is 10 years a standard years issued on every person green card? Also in that 10 years can you then prepare yourself to fill to be a united states citizen?
