    Have you had your approval for your other I-130 yet? Once both cases are at NVC you can contact them to ask them to link them and schedule them for interview together. Good luck.

    How recently did you update it? I did ours a couple of weeks ago and didn’t get any kind of receipt, but it did say that it would take a few weeks for the change to reflect on the online account. So are you just expecting it too soon maybe? Or did you change it weeks ago? Either way, make sure you have change of address and Informed Delivery both set up with USPS.

    Current timescales are here, it’s updated once a week - https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/immigrate/nvc-timeframes.html Then once the NVC stage is done the wait for an interview will vary by consulate. Anywhere between a couple of months to a couple of years. If yours is London then luckily it’s one of the quickest. Good luck.

    Ok, so hopefully interview letter in early spring next year, interview usually a month or two later. Best of luck.

    What’s the PD? Assuming it was current when DQ’ed it’s about a 9 month wait for family preference categories.
  6. appleblossom
    What kind of case (F2A/F2B?) and which country is he a citizen of? It sounds like an error has been made as you only mention an I-130 being filed, and not an I-131? Is he adjusting status or applying via consular processing?
  7. appleblossom
    I asked which country they’re citizens of? Just that if it’s Yemen that may explain the extra checks - and prepare yourself for extended AP when they get to the visa stage.
  8. appleblossom
    For your parents I mean. Your profile says Yemen, but Riyadh consulate, which country are your parents citizens of?
  9. appleblossom
    When you say ‘nothing since’, you mean since the I-797? Just checking you have received that!

    We don’t even know what stage of the process you’re at as you haven’t filled in your timeline, please do. But assuming you’ve submitted the I-130 and it’s not been approved yet then next stage will either be approval, a RFE, or NOID.

    OK, and you can prove you were going back for a job or similar, with a leave of absence just for a vacation? You didn't give up your home or sell your car? Just that in the current climate and administration I'd make sure you have plenty of evidence that you didn't intend to stay when you entered, particularly as you entered together. It may be seen as suspicious that your fiancée was planning on leaving you to go and live in another country. As long as you've got evidence of your plan to return to overcome any doubts, and you're happy to not work for quite some time, then go for it. Follow the guide CrazyCat gave you above, and best of luck.

    Here you go - https://egov.uscis.gov/processing-times/ Good luck.
  13. appleblossom
    So did you both return together with the intention of staying in the US? Or she returned and then you visited her later on? Just wanted to clarify as it could be either from what you've written here.
  14. appleblossom
    Your timeline is the crucial thing to fill in - on your profile. Then you'll be contributing towards the body of knowledge on VJ, but also get more accurate info and answers too. Good luck.
  15. appleblossom
    Application for what?
  16. appleblossom
    Ooof. Well that's not good news for your visa application, but more importantly she's technically committed perjury by filing as single when she's actually married. https://www.irs.gov/filing/filing-status She needs to amend her returns asap.
  17. appleblossom
    Married filing separately? Or just single? One is really not good news, the other is fine.
  18. appleblossom
    It's a bad article, I read one yesterday that was much more comprehensive. She was on a visa I hadn't heard of before, I think it was from her employment in a youth detention centre, and applying for a GC via VAWA. Can't recall now but I'll see if I can find the article, it was probably the BBC as I tend not to read US new sources.
  19. appleblossom
    Sounds like you're just in AP and have to wait it out. Your wife can visit you in the interim though. Did you not take those documents to the interview? What does your case status say? Is there a big age gap between you and your wife?
  20. appleblossom
    Please start your own thread, it's not fair to hijack the OP's with your questions.
  21. appleblossom
    You've posted this on an unrelated thread - start your own new thread, and give more info about what kind of visa, what documents you had to send in, etc, then somebody will try and help.
  22. appleblossom
    And it will only be approved if you have a basis for adjustment. You don't at the moment. One idea is to try calling in to Jim Hacking -
  23. appleblossom
    That sounds like AI nonsense, again don't use it for immigration advice! It also sounds like it's asking about non-payment of child support, not paying it, which shows that you are separated. Only go to the official source or a proper lawyer, I'm guessing that the ones that screwed you over weren't legit. Make sure whoever you use is a member of AILA, and ask if they have experience in dealing with similar cases to yours. And as said above, you need to get your citizenship sorted urgently. Start that asap.

    Your employer will need to make a case for it to be expedited. NVC schedules your interview, as per the usual website - https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/immigrate/the-immigrant-visa-process/step-10-prepare-for-the-interview.html. If you have any other questions do start a new thread and somebody will be happy to help I'm sure. Good luck.

    Looks like OP has an interview scheduled at end of September, if you check his/her timeline. It probably would have been a bit quicker if the quota wasn't about to be reached, but they have presumably scheduled it for then as no visas will be able to be issued until the new fiscal year anyway. So probably no different to a non expedited case would have been. Edit: looks like you're EB3? So yours would be very different, you'd need the company to make a case for an expedite (versus the OP who's self petitioning). What's your PD and are you 'normal' EB3 or other workers? If you could fill your timeline in as well that would be super helpful, thanks.
