    I’m also confused. Why do you think you need a letter from your doctor? To say what?
  2. appleblossom
    Things must have changed, it’s pretty quick now! Only 4 months or so from DQ to IL, other consulates are 1-2+ years. And all consulates can take months to review things that need to be sent in after an interview or complete AP (or years even). That’s not Manila specific. But yes, I agree that having a joint sponsor just in case would be the most sensible solution. Fingers crossed it won’t be needed but better to be prepared if the OP has a willing family member/friend.

    She won’t be sent anything in the mail by NVC. Her welcome letter and interview letter both come via email - see the link I gave you on your other thread that gives you info on each step of the process.

    Oh, ok - best to stick to the March thread then, rather than derail this one, but you've still got a while to go. Good luck.

    It shouldn't be in Missouri at all, it's just that your receipt notice came from there. But check your online status. Charlotte is 8 months processing time on average so if you only applied in May, still a little while to go. Good luck.
  6. appleblossom
    Yes, which just does all the admin. It has no relevance to your field office.

    Receipt letter from (Lee's Summit) Missouri is normal, they're all sent from there for paper filings, lots of admin is done there. That shouldn't be the Field Office processing your case if you live in NC. Can you check your online status, if so what does that say?
  8. appleblossom
    It should just be your local field office, are you saying your receipt notice says Missouri but you live elsewhere?
  9. appleblossom
    No idea, but hopefully somebody else can help! Good luck with the visa process.

    You were banned on here? It won't have been adding a timeline that got you banned, but no idea why then - it's usually those suspected of spamming etc. Maybe site admin can take a look for you if you give your previous username.

    Glad you sorted it. It would be super helpful if you could add the info to your timeline, as most people don't look at signatures but the timelines are incredibly helpful and all add to the body of knowledge on VJ. Thanks and good luck.

    If it was only produced yesterday, it'll take a few days to be packaged and put in the mail usually. So just keep an eye on Informed Delivery and I'm sure it will show up there soon. Good luck.

    It would depend on the category. You can check current timescales here though - https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/visa-information-resources/iv-wait-times.html

    It seems far too wordy and emotional to me - I realise that of course it's mainly emotion based for you, but that won't get you a waiver. You need to give facts about the hardship and evidence to support that. So shorten it down, focus on the financial/medical hardship to the USC etc, and provide evidence of that to support your claim. If you can get a lawyer to help you with the application, I would. Best of luck.

    Sorry, not sure which information you mean? If it’s the interview wait then it’s here - https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/visa-information-resources/iv-wait-times.html

    That's still really, really quick. Most people don't get married after such a short time together, who's pushing for marriage so early in the relationship? Can I suggest you go back and read your previous thread again, and remember how you were scammed before and nearly lost your house and church over it? It would be awful to make the same mistake again - not saying that's definitely what's happening, but it's worth looking at with that mindset. Best of luck to you.
  17. appleblossom
    You did say you wanted candour, so I'm afraid I'm going to be a bit blunt. You got sucked in before by somebody that clearly wasn't legit, and this is ringing alarm bells and sounds like exactly the same thing is happening again. I'm not saying it's definitely fake on her side, but she's several decades younger than you and desperately needs a way to be able to stay in the US. How did you meet this woman?
  18. appleblossom
    Social security and property tax don’t prove you were physically in the US, plenty of people pay them whilst living/working elsewhere. Bank statements showing (in store) transactions maybe? Medical records? Employment records?
  19. appleblossom
    2024 or 2025? Your first post says May 2024 but assume that was a typo? Timing tool is spot on if 2025. https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/visa-information-resources/iv-wait-times.html And pretty quick tbh, some other consulates are 1-2+ years wait for an interview.
  20. appleblossom
    Yes, that's a different thing entirely.
  21. appleblossom
    I edited my response to make it clearer - if the PD is current then there's no aging out in to F2B anyway.
  22. appleblossom
    An expedite is only possible if a visa is available, so if the PD isn't current on the Visa Bulletin then there's nothing that can be done. And if the PD is current on the VB, then the applicant would stay F2A at that point anyway under CPSA.
  23. appleblossom
    Also, what Priority Date and what's the country of birth of the applicant?
  24. appleblossom
    What's the reason for the expedite? Just aging out wouldn't qualify.
  25. appleblossom
    OK, so get her DQ'ed asap (it's a long wait for an interview). Good luck.
