I-90 is not needed. N-400 receipt extends her gc by 24 months. She can travel with that.
 
i-90 is a waste of money in her situation

Thread is moved from General Immigration Discussion to the Working & Traveling forum -- topic is travel.

Oh wow. Congrats!!!!!

My husband joined a group of people who were having their interview and almost all got the yellow missing document paper. The missing document is usually 2022 tax transcripts. Just a warning to anyone who sees this. I am going to need to submit a tax extension form and hope for the best since i haven’t filed yet.

On your timeline I see they gave you an interview in July. So a 5-1/2 month wait from DQ to interview? No updates yet from those with DQ in Feb? I'm looking at transferring my case to Cairo since my wife and I are now in Egypt, but I'm not too excited about a 5 or 6 month wait. And we'll need to prove residence here too, but we can get that if we register the kids in school here. 

Hi i just got my IL  on 5/31
my interview will be on june 30 
good luck for eveyone

They did Feb 1st a few hours ago!!!!!!

Congratulations!! And good luck on the interview.
 
I hope they get on February soon. Good luck to us
 

Yeah I just got it a while ago.

Does anybody have any information what date of Documentary qualified cases that they’re looking at right now for CR-1 in Cairo? Last thing I’ve seen about dates is that a Dec 8th DQ got their interview scheduled on March 17th. Please let me know if you have ANY information about CR1 cases in cairo. our DQ was feb 6th, we are so close I think but who knows 

Hi guys!
My visa finally was issued today! 

FINALLY DQ'd today.  11 Apr 2023.  After 9 RFE's.  5 of them were for Petitioner's Birth Certificate.  Birth Certificate was not in RENIEC in LIMA. We had to go to the Province the she was born to get the BC.  This took us a while because that Province was still under water due to the flooding in Peru.  We kept submitting the original stamped copy from birth registry  in that province, whenever we received a rejection, because we didn't know if we might get a person who was reviewing, who would accept this one, but unfortunately they kept rejecting and continued to ask for the birth certificate to be stamped by RENIEC.  The water finally receded enough last week, and we were able to get an appointment RENIEC in the Province.   Received RENIEC STAMP on 3 Apr 2023.  Uploaded stamped copy of birth certificate  in CEAC on 10 Apr 2023 and received DQ email today.
 
Problem:  Received two emails. Email time and date identical. One email entitled "Notice regarding your immigrant Visa Case becoming Documentarily Qualified". The second with the general RFE info.  I went to CEAC and the only message stated "All required documents have been received and approved. Below that message in the Large Box :DOCUMENTARILY QUALIFIED
My question is why two emails, but only one stating Documentarily Qualified.  What is the purpose of the other email?

Tomorrow’s the interview pray for us.

it looks like the new "norm" is 5 month wait for IR1/CR1 immediate relative category across the Board.  There were about a dozen or people that I know of in a whatsapp group (for those waiting for Dominican Republic) that received their IL for end of April thru end of May (they were DQ'd Sept/Oct 2022).  This is good!  I hope to hear something next April/May, but you never know if sooner.  Congrats to those that received their IL already and continued prayers for us that are still waiting <3.
