    Make sure your brother/sister (whoever petitioned you) is also checking as it may well go to them. Your email addresses haven't changed since you submitted back in 2006?

    You should have had it by now - https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/immigrate/nvc-timeframes.html Obviously there's no real urgency as you're still a while away from a visa, but I'd give it another couple of months and then if you still haven't heard anything, contact NVC and chase it up. Do keep checking your junk/spam folder on your emails as well, in case it goes in to there.

    That's weird. If it doesn't work then I would also upload the info from the reciprocal page showing that it is exactly as they have requested. Good luck!

    Yes, either of them can, or even both of them (possibly a good idea so you have a second petition as back up, just in case - as awful as it is to think about - something happens to the petitioning parent). Just get it filed asap, so you're in the line and the clock starts ticking. Good luck.

    There’s no submitting docs, just taking them to the interview. But I agree, OP needs to get them ready and be really careful making sure they are the right ones as per the country specific instructions - it would be awful to get a 221g that delays things and miss out because of that.

    And to add to @Dashinka’s questions, when you say she ‘shuttled between’ the two places, how much time did she spend in the US in total since getting her GC? And what did she go to the embassy for?
  7. appleblossom
    Still seems to say it's a waiver for misrepresentation that you needed? So I-601, not I-601a? What exactly have you filed?
  8. appleblossom
    I think Boiler's point is that I-601a is for overstayers, not inadmissibility. So just to confirm, did you mean you'd applied for I-601?

    I don't have the app, but I do have GE. I use the scanning machine then pass straight through, normally just get a 'anything to declare' question and waived straight through without showing my passport/GC etc. So have never bothered getting the app!

    Yes, it can take however long. But as above, there's no way to speed it up, you just need to wait your turn and keep your fingers crossed that you get an interview in time. Good luck.

    Which consulate? You can’t ask to jump the line of people ahead of you, nobody will be able to help you do that. It’s just a case of waiting and hoping.
  12. appleblossom
    Oh that’s good, it’s a quick consulate. Good luck.
  13. appleblossom
    That’s quite recent, I think I’d leave it a lot longer before trying again, as said above it looks a bit desperate if there are too many applications in a short period of time so is likely to be another quick refusal. When were her previous refusals?
  14. appleblossom
    Congrats! Glad you got it sorted. Hope it’s not too long until you get an interview now. Which consulate?
  15. appleblossom
    There will be people who applied in 2007 who will be getting green cards now but they won’t be F4’s from India, Mexico or the Philippines. I suspect you’re hearing about people from other countries, who are current. It seems you are in India? So your PD is NOT current, you need to read the VB correctly. My guess is you’ve got another 5-8 years to go. The VB isn’t useless or a vague guideline as to timings, it’s the legal basis for visa availability. Not current on there = no visa available to you by law.
  16. appleblossom
    Which consulate and how long has it been?
  17. appleblossom
    Can you tell us what you've got and also how old it is? Then people might be able to advise if there is an issue with it. Does it definitely say "This certificate is issued solely for the information of the U.S.A. Consular authorities" on it?
  18. appleblossom
    Ours arrived within a week but I thought they’d stopped sending them now? It was a change this year, now you have to go to an office and apply in person.
  19. appleblossom
    I’d say that’s feasible. Good luck!
  20. appleblossom
    Where are you physically present? Presumably Vienna. And where would you want any mail from USCIS to be sent to? Also presumably Vienna. So I’d put your Vienna address.
  21. appleblossom
    Just too soon probably. Give it time and they’ll be in touch.
  22. appleblossom
    I’d assumed as much. It’s approved now though so you just need to wait for new medical/interview/document instructions from the consulate.
  23. appleblossom
    Oh that’s good, it’s not a consulate with a super long wait for interview. 👍
  24. appleblossom
    Ok, that’s good, top of the list for interview scheduling then.
  25. appleblossom
    Congrats! Which visa category? Usually you’ll need to resubmit docs/go for another interview/medical before visa issuance, so it will depend on what is required. Mumbai will be in touch to tell you. AP is also still possible, so that could add time too. As a very rough guess, anywhere between 3 months and a year.
