    Yeah, just vaccination history won't be enough. You also need medical history, any medications etc - all of that (along with the vaccination records) will be on your SCR. Have you booked your medical yet? As the confirmation should tell you what you need to bring.

    Can your GP write a letter about your diagnosis and treatment? We had to get that for my daughter who was on anti-depressants and had a history of anxiety and self harm. The all important wording that's needed is that you are 'not a danger to yourself or others'.

    Usually the end of the month, but they can be anytime, particularly at this time of year when they have additional NIV interviews and DV interviews to schedule. So just keep an eye on your email (including junk folder). Good luck.

    Hopefully it will be this month, but if you only became current yesterday then just to set expectations, it could arrive next month. Fingers crossed for July for you though…….🤞

    Only if the PD is current - and it hasn't been for @dabursot2. So PD and category is very relevant as well as the DQ date.

    Top tip: hit the 'Timeline' on somebody's posts to see their details - if they've completed them of course. Please fill yours in as well, the more EB timelines we have the better, thank you.

    So no grounds to expedite. But as above, the parent with their green card can file for a re-entry permit then return to wait with their spouse so they don’t need to be apart. Good luck.

    Melbourne doesn’t do IV’s, Sydney is your only option. And there’s no limit on the number of immediate relative visas (spouse, parents etc) that can be issued each year. Sydney isn’t one of the worst consulates though, so hopefully it won’t be too long. Good luck.

    For the medical you need your 'Summary Care Record', is that what you've got? Should be fine if so, mine did have my surgery name on the top right hand corner but I can't imagine it would matter if yours didn't have that on.

    Unfortunately I think it's unlikely you'll get an IL this month, so it'll depend on how much EB3 retrogresses in August's bulletin (or if it becomes unavailable), you may find you're out of the running again once that happens.

    OK, so NVC should respond to their public enquiry with the Welcome Letter hopefully - then they can start filing. But I wouldn't worry about the delay, as it's going to be a long time until there is a visa available anyway, so don't stress about that. Good luck.

    It is different every month, no way of knowing. They'd been following a pattern of the end of every month when I was waiting for mine, then I got mine much earlier. Just keep an eye on your emails, and junk folder too. Good luck.

    You don’t do anything, you just wait for an interview letter. Which consulate? The wait varies hugely depending on that. It can be as little as 2-3 months, or as long as 2-3 years.
  14. appleblossom
    Varies hugely depending on consulate - can be as little as 2 months, or as much as 3 years. So where will you be interviewing? Sydney or are you living/working somewhere else?
  15. appleblossom
    They will vary depending on consulate - you’ll be sent a list with your interview letter. But the NVC website has them, so start there (look at the country specific guidelines for specifics). HTH.

    It's both. You need 3 years of being a LPR, and 3 years of marriage. So in your case, it would be April of next year, and yes, she can apply 90 days before that. https://www.uscis.gov/forms/uscis-early-filing-calculator

    OK, so presumably she entered just to activate her visa, then has returned home to finish sorting things, but is now moving to the US permanently? I still think she'll be fine as that's pretty common, but any evidence you can give would be helpful just in case i.e. add her name to the lease, get her a mobile phone number/bill, etc.
  18. appleblossom
    Not sure where you're reading that, but I'd imagine she'll be waved through with no issues at all if she's only been out for 4 months. Just make sure she takes proof of her ties to the US just in case she's asked (i.e. car, home, bank account, tax returns filed as resident etc). And then make sure she stays in the US and makes it her home, I can't see it being an issue at all. Good luck.

    You need your passport as well. https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/visit-canada/entry-requirements-country.html#lawful-pr-us

    'It should be September 2003' - should be or definitely is?? Please look up the exact PD on your paperwork.
  21. appleblossom
    OK, that's good - at least you're not at risk of aging out. When is your spouse eligible to naturalise? The Visa Bulletin is what tells you if there is a visa available to you or not. Your Priority Date must be before the date on Table A (your PD being 'current') for you to be eligible for a visa. If it's not current, then there is no visa available to you. Your date only became current on 1st February, so before that there was nothing you were waiting for, as there was no visa for you. You can see the current Visa Bulletin, and all previous ones here - https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/legal/visa-law0/visa-bulletin.html
  22. appleblossom
    Yes, because there was no visa available to you before February. Are you familiar with the Visa Bulletin? Are you the spouse or child of a LPR?
  23. appleblossom
    Yes, lots of people have, see the thread below yours. It's utterly useless so don't pay any attention to it or worry about it at all, best to just ignore it. Good luck.

    Age wouldn't usually be a valid reason to expedite, are there medical issues? If so provide evidence of that (doctors letters) and that may work. You may also need to show proof that the USC can't move to the beneficiary's country and that's why they are apart. Edit: just looked and realised this is a IR5 case? With presumably one parent that has been granted a visa and one that is waiting for the waiver? So that wouldn't be valid grounds IMO as it's not showing hardship to a USC. The parent that has been granted the visa could apply for a re-entry permit to return to the home country and wait with their spouse.
  25. appleblossom
    Yes. What’s your reason for an expedite?
