Yes upload the extension letter bcuz u don't have 2023 tax return so at least show them extension letter but if u filed this year tax later and think before interview u get the transcript then only wait. Good luck

Yes we’re in the process of filing it 

it will take 1 to 2 months I think

Hi there 

I have submitted the documents to NVC and they are asking for 2023 tax returns we don’t have it yet but we do have the extension from IRS 

what should I do 

should I send them the extension letter or wait for the 2023 tax returns and how much do we have to send them the documents once they asked?

thanks

I'd think pretty soon maybe within the month. Unless they start to slow down around Eid, in that case the week after Eid is probably when you could get the IL email.

 IR1 and IR5 interviews are in the same category? 
my father’s DQ is February 2023 I can’t find any IR5 group here so that’s why asking in this group!!

Time from DQ to IL varies hugely by consulate, most people on here will have had theirs by now but if yours is Islamabad then unfortunately it's one of the worst - 18-24 months wait or even longer. When was your parent DQ'ed?

 

 

February 2023

Does anyone receive their interview missive?

Letter**

In DS260 there is a question 

is your immigrating to the US with you? 
and next is 

is your spouse immigrating to the Us at a later date to join you? 
what should be the answer yes or no 

I’m filling out this for my mom and my dad’s case is already in the NVC and approved

See Boiler's post above - his guess was 12-15 years. 

 

It will depend on the kids exact ages though i.e. is the 17 year old only just 17 or about to turn 18? It will also depend on when your parents actually move and petition for them - you expect your Dad to get an interview soon, but as a Pakistani male he may well be put in AP and that will delay things, so by the time he gets his visa the kids could be another year older. Etc, etc. Too many variables to know for sure, I guess all you can do is talk to your parents and make sure they're ok with the potential delay in your siblings being able to move. It's worth having a full and frank conversation with them before they move IMO, it would be awful if they moved and then regretted it.

 

Good luck. 

They age out when they turning d 18 or 21?

4 ish

And what about if the age out?

No, as advised above they can apply immediately. But it'll be a long wait for them to get visas though. Your parents need to carefully consider if they are happy to live apart from them for that long I guess? Particularly as they're not likely to get visitor visas either. 

Is it 2-3 years wait  for children under 21?

So can not the oldest also stay with them?

Yes she can 

I’m just getting all the ideas 

I know this questions should belong to IR5 category but if during the interview officer asks my father who’s gonna take care of his kids can he say that my oldest daughter hopefully he’ll get his interview in 2 months 

and my mom’s case just started at NVC so she’ll also be in the country

They can petition them as soon as they arrive and get their Passport Stamp.

 

So what is the plan for the younger ones?

They’re studying and they will stay with the uncle and grandma 

Do they have to wait (my parents IR5) to apply for their kids they have 2 kids 15 and 17 and one 20 my sister 

I mean like 3 year wait

So you own a physiotherapy business? 

 

Your parents can sponsor her once they have GC's. 

No we have a completely different business I don’t think so it’s gonna work for her 

but thank you so much I really appreciate all of your help 

if parents sponsor her how long it will take? 

1 hour ago, Boiler said:

As long as she is not married they can sponsor her.

 

Depends, what are her qualifications?

She’s becoming a physiotherapist 

4 minutes ago, Rabia Ahsan said:

Yes my parents will be here in US 

 

My parents won’t be able to sponsor her because she’ll be definitely over 21 by the time 

me and my husband we own a business should we try to apply a employment visa for her? 

37 minutes ago, appleblossom said:

Will she have other family members there when applying though? Parents etc? If so, that reduces her chances of a student visa even further. 
 

Is her plan to try to move permanently? 

Yes my parents will be here in US

How is she funding this?

With the help of dad

It’s clear from your other post that you are petitioning your entire family, so I’d be surprised if the consulate would believe your sister would return to Pakistan.   

I’m not gonna petition her she’s gonna apply herself

To add to the above, VJ has a guide - 

 

 

She has to be accepted in to the school first, so that's the first step, she needs to apply to colleges. 

 

Note that if she's from Pakistan, and has her sister living in the US, her chances of a visa being granted are lower, so do bear that in mind. 

The chances are lower because I’m here in US or they aren’t giving student visas to Pakistanis? 

Hi there, 

I want to help my sister to apply for a student visa in US I’m a US citizen 

she’s 20 years old and becoming a physiotherapist 

I don’t know much about the student visa and the process 

Any help would be greatly appreciated! 
thanks 🙏

I have filled for my father in February of 2023 and now I’m filling forms for my mother 

I was comparing the i864 A form and I think I made a mistake I’m using a household member (my husband) 

on part 5 where it says

I, the sponsor, I wrote my husband’s name and I think I should have wrote my own name 

and in part 6 where it says 

I, The household member…. I wrote my husbands name which is I think right 

help me what should I do did I messed it up? 

FYI 

everything has already been approved by NVC and it’s in interview line

Hello everyone 

please share what documents should parents (IR5) take with them to the interview?

I see. So your mother will wait to join with the siblings? You want to slow things down as much as possible then, you don't want her interview for several years yet. 

No once she’s done with the interview she’ll come and grandparents will take care of the siblings and when siblings got their visas then can come
