Is your mom's case already DQ?

 

Also, check the thread below for updates from other IR5 pending interview in Manila --

 

 

Yes my mom's case been DQ since July of 2020.

I tried to expedite it but they ask me for a medical reason and doctor's proof documents.

My mom's case is at NVC since 2020 July. Is there any news of any interview scheduled recently in US Embassy Manila Philippines for this category? Her priority date is June 24, 2019 my moms visa is IR5.

Is there anybody here the same case as my mom?

My Son 16yrs.old arrived July 31, 2021 last month... He received his Social Security Card in the mail 7days after he arrived in the U.S.

I wonder how long the Greencard arrived in the mail too? 

Is anybody here the same experienced like this? Any idea....

I will say we were nervous about it..we entered 5 days before the visa expired (cutting it that fine is absolutely not something I’d recommend in retrospect by the way), and that was about 2 months after the medical had expired. No problem at all.

I think I'm gonna have my son leave two months before the visa expired specially in this Pandemic we never know when is the next lockdown.I hope it won't happen again.

Confirming this. We had same and asked the embassy who issued it. They told us the date on the visa is the one that matters. 

Thank you all for the input..it really helps to make decision for my travel.

My son got his Medical exam expiration date June 31, 2021. And his visa expiration is end of Sept.2021. Which date should I follow? The date the medical expires or the date the visa expires?

He is 16yrs.old. 

My son had medical exam done in St Lukes Ermita today, but he did not got his xray film in the releasing, they gave him only the reciept that has barcode and the payment receipt also..is it normal? No xray film needed na ba?

How to expedite and how much you have to pay?

Depends on the beneficiary's age. Per the relevant proclamations, the beneficiary might be exempt.

My son is minor he is 15.

There is a Presidential Ban on immigrant visas until next year, you won’t hear anything until then.

Yeah Trumps mess...hope it will get reverse very sad.

Does anybody here from Philipines got scheduled for visa interview for I-130?

My son became Documentarily Qualified last August 17, 2020 but this is already Nov. 14 today but I haven't heard any email from NVC for the schedule interview date. Is it normal?

Thanks. This will be more easy to understand than your first post. You can try contact USCIS and request for Tier2 officer. They maybe busy, but it's possible to get a hold and talk with them first.

I did spoked to an Immigration officer and this is what she told me to do to follow what is on the Approval noticed sent. And in my case it should not be long to get it done she said. I just want to and post my experienced to let the other filers in the future to be aware of making a mistake in their form...because I didn't know it cost me money and now it is. Lesson learned.😢

K. Then unfortunately the confusion created by the information on filing has cost you money but is not going to be more of a problem  than that. 

Yes unfortunately! All my income tax went to this form😢😢😢

Let me clarify : you're the US citizen son file I-130 for your mom? . Your mom also have another son over 21 ?

Two different petition with different category. Your mom petition is IR category so the is no limit on the visa. However, you file second I-130 for the son over 21( your brother?), and the wait time is around 10-15 years.

Iam a U.S. Citizen.Iam the petioner.

I have a son in the Philippines he is 15yrs.old. 

And I have also my biological mother in Philippines.

Iam getting them an Immigrant Visa.

Um yep .. that’s the confusion. So which is it .. are they here and need to do AOS or are they overseas and going through the Consular processing. You need to sort this out with USCIS and get the petitions on the correct pathway   I do not know if the I 824 is the correct process. Have you spoken to a tier 2 operator at USCIS? 

I did spoked to a Immigration Officer and this is what she told me to do to file I-824 form..and she said in my case it should not take long, if I follow what is on the approval noticed sent.

11 minutes ago, H&T said:

USCIS will automatic send the approve I-130 to NVC, so I really don't know why you have to file I-824. Just call USCIS and ask them why your I-130 not send to NVC yet. Also, be aware that the son under 21 will not be able to follow the mom since IR visa does not allow derivative.

What happened is I filled out both part in the form I-130 that states my mom is in the united states and will adjust a status and also same as my son but then I also filled out the part that they will apply a visa outside the united states...so might be a confusion for them on how to understand my application form.  

What do you mean by my son cannot follow the mom? My mom is my biological mother my son Iam the mom they are two different benificiary that I petitioned.

Does anyone experienced this: Iam a U.S. Citizen, my I-130 Petition for Alien Relative for my mom and son under 21 was approved last Dec. 2, 2019. And I received I-797 Approval Notice that tells me what to do next, since my mom and son is outside the United States they want me to file I-824 in order for my case to be forwarded to NVC. And so I filed today I had a money order $465 each so had a total amount spent $930 to Dallas Texas Lockbox since that was the designated address according to my case. Does anyone experience the same as mine??? Give me an input or tell me anything your experienced. Thanks...

First let me congratulate you on your approval! Now you have to wait for NVC to contact you so you can continue with the process.

I filed I-130 form and got approved last Dec. 2 for my mom and this is my noticed I received.(My mom is in Philippines she is not yet in the U.S. yet.) Is anybody received a notice like this? And what did you do next? Coz Iam confused. Help me please...

 

It stated in the second paragraph that: If the beneficiary decided to apply for an immigrant visa outside the United States based on this petition, you should file form I-824, Application for Action on an Aprroved Application or Petition, to request that we send the petition to the U.S. Department of State National Visa Center (NVC).

Hundreds of people every day get a notice like this.  Once it reaches NVC,  they will open a case for you to submit the required documents 

But as it stated in the letter that if the beneficiary decided to apply for visa outside the United States I have to file a I-824 form in order for them to forward my approved petition to the NVC. For what I've known and heard other people who has experienced this kind of petition the case should be automatically forwarded to NVC after its approved. Why it stated that I have to file a form? I am very confused.
