It’s illegal in Mexico too.

Ah, ok. It was just that you’ve only ever said ´my visa/interview/medical’ etc (singular) - so assumed only you had applied for a visa and not your daughter too. Not sure there’s a lot you can do on the flight then, I sympathise as I had the same last year (waited for my children to finish their GCSE’s & A Levels before moving). We moved in July as my children didn’t want to rush off straight after exams, they wanted to relax a bit with friends first. But the only thing I can suggest is that you search using a tool like Skyscanner, using their whole month search, to find the cheapest date. And don’t look for one way flights, which are always more expensive - get a return on the cheapest possible date then just cancel it. Good luck.

You can't divorce her if you're not married to her.

I assume your daughter isn't moving (just as you mention 'my visa' rather than 'our visas')? So she's just visiting with you - could she maybe visit another time so you could travel before flights increase in price? Have a look at MoveCube, that may work for you. Good luck.

As you've been told above, it will be a problem. She's not your wife so can't get a derivative visa from you.

Yes, of course you're single - your second marriage wasn't legal. Which is why you need to remarry her if you want her to become your legal spouse.

'Brother' is quite presumptuous! Lots of us are female. Your current wife isn't your wife, so you'd need to remarry her if you wanted her to become your legal spouse. I've no idea if there would be any issue with the bigamy you committed though. Where were you born, Mexico or Morocco? Or somewhere else?

Also, just to mention in case you're not aware - your son cannot get married before getting a visa, otherwise he becomes ineligible as there is no category for married children of LPR's. He could get married if you become a citizen, but probably still doesn't want to as it would make his wait even longer. So you might want to advise him to remain unmarried until he's in the US.

Follow the official guide - https://www.uscis.gov/family/bring-children-to-live-in-the-US And the VJ guide as well - https://www.visajourney.com/guides/ Good luck.

Even the quickest consulates are 1-2 months after DQ, and some have a 2+ year wait for an interview. I’ve no idea where Havana sits in the scale though and a forum search didn’t find any other timelines for that consulate either. Good luck to both of you, if you could fill in your timelines then it would be incredibly helpful for other Cuban applicants that follow.

All you can do is wait and see and do the opposite of what most people on VJ do - hope you don’t get a speedy approval! Good luck.

The trouble is you can’t calculate it until you know how long the I-130 takes to be approved. It can be much quicker than the quoted processing times - example below where another forum member had one in the same category approved in 5 months at the end of last year. Or of course it could take even longer.

Ditto on both counts! My only concern is my mother-in-law…..maybe we'll hold off on citizenship even if we do stay long enough to be eligible. 😂😂 Seems the OP has asked this question before and had some good answers.

Even if the sister was adopted by another family? And more like 30+ years if it's the Philippines I'd guess.

You couldn't do that anyway. Personally I wouldn't cancel the I-130 unless you know for sure you can get a job offer/employer/TN visa.

Oh I've no idea then I'm afraid. @Captain Ewok may be able to help.

The doctor has nothing to do with the waiver. You'd need to apply for it separately (I-601), adds about a year to the process.

That sounds like it may be your SCR anyway. As long as it's not pages and pages of info (I vaguely recall it was 6 pages that Visa Medicals said was the max) then that should be fine.

It may just be enough - fingers crossed! Hope June's VB brings the date you're hoping for.

Lots of countries have huge backlogs and the wait for an interview can be 1-2 years+ from being DQ'ed, even if the PD is current. Utterly frustrating that after a lengthy wait for a PD to become current there's another line to wait in, particularly when some consulates are only a couple of months from DQ to interview date.

You need your Summary Care Record, not your full medical history - Visa Medicals will tell you that if you have more than a certain number of pages they'll charge you extra for reviewing them. You should be able to download that on the app as well though. Good luck.

People have, but only spousal visas that I know of. Once you become current then you should get an IL in a month or so. Unfortunately I don't see the VB moving much anytime soon, DoS did say there would be 'very little to no forward movement' for employment based categories in the coming months. Hopefully it will move 'very little' but just enough for you though! Good luck.

@dabursot2´s PD isn’t current yet. You can click on a persons username to see their timeline. HTH.

It does seem odd that none of the immigration officials seem to be familiar with their own policies. https://uk.usembassy.gov/visas/after-the-interview/entry-on-an-immigrant-visa/#:~:text=You may not enter the,of the U.S. Citizen petitioner.

That just means that one of those forms need to have been filed to qualify for CPSA in the first place, but then the actual conditions for CPSA are laid out further down the page for each specific category, as it varies for each. Read the section on family preference categories for more info.
