Hey everyone! We just got the confirmation of acceptance of the i134a. So now we've taken the next steps of creating the USCIS account for each individual, verifying biographic information, vaccination status, and attestations, and have sent the authorization request to CBP through the app. Does anyone know how long it typically takes to receive the authorization to travel? Just want to be sure i'm not missing anything that could lead to delays! Thanks for any help at all!

If you don't mind me asking, when did you submit the application? How long did it take you to get accepted? I filed for my wife about 2 weeks ago.

Yes, you and your wife can apply.

 

However, if you do and she is paroled into the US, you will need to start a new process - Adjustment of Status.  That will take up to 2 years.

 

I believe Haiti has backlogs for interview.  You may need to wait up to 6 months, perhaps longer.  But when you do get the interview and get approved for the CR1/IR1, she will immediately be an LPR when she enters the US.

Yes Haiti has extreme backlogs and interview dates are backed up for about 2 years so that’s why I was asking about the parole program. We will most likely be waiting 2 years anyway for an interview so why not wait for the adjustment of status. She will at least be here with me. She has health issues that we need to get her help for so waiting 2 years in Haiti could be serious for her. Sorry for the long response I just hoping to get to my wife as soon as I can. I appreciate your help 🙏🏻

Good afternoon everyone,

Does anyone have any knowledge on the Parole program in regards to CR-1 visa cases. My wife and I have been DQ'd back in February and are looking at a very long wait period for an interview. Is this parole program an option? I appreciate any information that you guys may have. Thank you so much! 

This is for spouses married to US citizens or green card holders? I am sorry for the ignorance on the topic but I have read that US citizen times are significantly faster due to the number of visas not being limited? Does this make a difference at all for the Embassy in Port au Prince? 

Yes, sorry i forgot to put that in the post. We were DQ'd 2/14/23. Exactly one month ago. 

Good morning to everyone,

My wife is currently in Port Au Prince waiting for our interview date for our CR-1 final interview. I am trying to find any information on current interview wait times but all I can find is wait times for non-immigrant visa interviews. Does anyone have any insight on what the current wait times for a CR-1 immigrant visa interview date is for someone who is married to a US Citizen? If it is going to be a significant wait time we have discussed moving to DR together until we receive our interview date. I appreciate any insight you guys may have and thank you so much!
