Waiting another month?  For what?   My CPA sends me a copy of my return immediately. 

For the CPA to file it to Begin with.... They still need to file the business taxes first and they don't have all the files yet. ..

That doesn't change my opinion.  Your NVC documents will NOT be processed before April 18th.  NVC can ask for the 2021 tax documents. The consulate will definitely do so. 

By law, they must be filed by April 18th.

Yeah they will file by the 18th but waiting another month is worth it you reckon??

I meant be prepared if NVC asks for the 2021 taxes later...which they could do.......yes, it will extend your NVC processing.  Personally, I would seriously consider filing the 202 taxes now, and uploading a copy. 

Thing is my joint sponsor has their CPA prepare their taxes , Wich is not any time soon they are in queue

I would upload 2020 alone in the required docs and 2018 , 2019 under additional documents....and be prepared to upload your 2021 taxes later.

Wouldn't that set me to the back of the line in NVC processing???

I chose to upload 2018 2019 2020 tax transcripts on ceac . Am I supposed to combine all of them into one pdf and upload it in the required docs ? or upload 2020 alone in the required docs and 2018 , 2019 under additional documents?? Thanks

No.  After a case is document qualified by NVC, it enters a queue for said consulate.  Once a case reaches the front of the queue, NVC then schedules the interview, and sends the case to the consulate.

Aight. Thank you and sorry for the headache

Based on your logic, almost every single case would qualify for an expedite.  

BTW, please fill in your time line.

The whole deal is i thought NVC expedites are decided by the embassy and was wondering if an embassy is not overloaded maybe they can push an appointment upfront anyway . That's all. Thanks . Will do

read the reasons that USCIS says are "reasons to expedite"

But I'm at NVC stage , but yeah guess not enough

I am a big believer in expedites, however would suggest you go for something better than my Boss is mean to me.

Going for the fact that I'm getting a good paying job (an opportunity I might miss if no expedite) close to my wife's parents, where we are going to be living and where she will be working for them part time too ... So no Rent , 2 full time jobs ... Plus the whole my current employment situation . Not worth trying?

USCIS and DOS (NVC & Consulate) are 2 separate entities.  You must expedite for both.  

Okay my i-130 is approved , i am at NVC stage . So same rules for NVC expedite?

I never said that.  However, there are more than a million I-30s pending in the pipeline right now.  Your justification must show why you should jump in front of all those people who have been waiting. Here is what USCIS says about expedites:

 

Because granting an expedite request means that USCIS would adjudicate the requestor's benefit ahead of others who filed earlier, we carefully weigh the urgency and merit of each expedite request. We may consider an expedite request if it meets one or more of the following criteria or circumstances:

• Severe financial loss to a company or person, provided that the need for urgent action is not the result of the petitioner’s or applicant’s failure to:
  • Timely file the benefit request, or
  • Timely respond to any requests for additional evidence;

• Emergencies and urgent humanitarian reasons;

• Nonprofit organization (as designated by the Internal Revenue Service) whose request is in furtherance of the cultural or social interests of the United States;
• U.S. government interests (such cases identified as urgent by federal agencies such as the U.S. Department of Defense, U.S. Department of Labor, National Labor Relations Board, Equal Opportunity Commission, U.S. Department of Justice, U.S. Department of State, U.S. Department of Homeland Security, or other public safety or national security interests); or
• Clear USCIS error.

Not every circumstance that fits in one of these categories will result in expedited processing.

But isn't it embassy bound too? I thought at NVC stage, the embassy decides to grant the expedite or not. Am I wrong? If so , well there is barely 10 people in line in my country xD

1.  No

2.  No, imho.

Could you please point me to where it states that the expedite requests are only depending on the USC's circumstances and not the beneficiary? Thanks

The case for an expedited request has to be hardship for  the USC 

 

https://www.uscis.gov/forms/filing-guidance/how-to-make-an-expedite-request

just a little advice

sorry,  seems like boss is a bit jealous that u could come to the US

when u go for the interview,  don't tell people

if it is approved and u get your visa,  don't let everyone know

just say your goodbys to family

I'm sorry , can you point me to where it says the expedites are only related to the USC's condition/hardship ?? I read the expedite section on uscis and can't find it. Thanks alot

Have you considered changing your photo?

That's gonna be even more suspicious considering I haven't touched my profile picture since 2015 nor my Facebook since 2018

Why would you do that? That looks very odd. When you go for the interview they will have red flag raised. Just accept that delays are part of the process and do not jeopardize your case like that by volunteering information that has not been asked. 
 

No, you can’t expedite in this case. There is no hardship on a US citizen. She is free to leave Tunisia at any time and come back to the US 

Cuz I'm paranoid simple xD thanks anyway

I didn't tell anyone , he knows cuz I had to take leave from work to get married ....  Well she is in hardship since she is in Tunisia xD

One more question before starting its own thread .  Can I ask to expedite NVC based on discrimination? Ever since I got married , my boss (been here for 7years) is treating me badly because he assumes I'm not staying in the company, he refused to give me my annual raise , he never yelled at me before or anything , quite the contrary . Now he yells whenever I talk to him about my salary and keeps saying you are leaving anyway.... I missed a promotion that was supposed to be mine because of it...  Finances are kind of tough cuz of that cuz I have to pay rent and afford a living for me and my wife ( my American wife lives here with me) .... Long story short if I get a job offer in the us , and say the stuff my boss is subjecting me to. Is it likely to be expedited?

I am a project manager in aerospace engineering ( he assumes I'm leaving cuz I'm leaving the country cuz I married an American)

Auto-correct does that sometimes xD all I needed now is saying attack

if u haven;'t used facebook since 2018 probably not an issue

 

Yeah but how would they know if it's my last post from 2018 or i deleted everything back to 2018?

Thanks everyone, sorry about my daily dose of Paranoia xD something else, was it wise or stupid to attack visajourney to the social media accounts on the ds-260? XD

Just now, Kor2USA said:

I think you should wait. 

Have you been DQed yet? 

Nope not yet . But the whole concern is a stupid profile picture and the fact that there was a terrorist attack on the us embassy in my country 3 years ago...

2 minutes ago, Kor2USA said:

I wouldn't give them the DS-5535 before they ask for it. But, I would get all the information together so if they do ask for it you can send if they do request it. 

 

So I shouldn't contact the embassy now and explain my concerns? (I don't have an interview date yet)

So we are waiting for our interview in Tunisia (north Africa) and I'm (male beneficiary) worried about getting a ds-5355 because it is a Muslim country and my Facebook profile picture is me holding a paintball guns Wich looks like real guns.... It's stupid but I have pots about guns but they are all from 2015 and it's all just video games but I don't know if they embassy will get it (haven't used Facebook since 2018)  . My question is, can I contact the embassy in advance and ask em if I can file the 5355 in advance to avoid delays after the interview??

Calculate total income from Oct 15-Feb 15 and divide by 4. Then multiply by 12, that's the annual income. 

Wouldn't they think that's fishy? Like how is it guarantee for them to not request evidence to prove she will make highs and lows instead of all lows? Since it's variable part time not fixed time

My wife and sponsor is living with me abroad, and works for her parent's US based company , online and part time (we already have them as joint sponsor too) . her income on her pay stubs is not fixed and goes from 500 to 2500 dollars , and we only have pay-stubs from october since thats when she strated working for them . how do we answer the question about her CURRENT INCOME.
