Administrative Processing at the London Embassy
Moda25 replied to Moda25's topic in US Embassy and Consulate Discussion
@M S Khan Hahaha I went back to the records to give you the correct dates. The passport remaining with them won’t speed or delay the Admin Process. We received the same backlash from family and friends too for requesting my husband’s back but like you said she’ll need it for the medical. Hopefully, they issue the visa before it expires but if they don’t, then she’ll need it. The embassy actually waited for my husband to complete his 2nd medical before they asked us to submit the passport. Good luck to you guys. -
Administrative Processing at the London Embassy
Moda25 replied to Moda25's topic in US Embassy and Consulate Discussion
@M S Khan No, they did not. My husband is a UK resident and wasn’t on a visa but I don’t see it to become a problem even if your wife travels out and comes back when her visa is ready. My husband received the email for additional medical on April 26, he then called the clinic on April 30 and his appointment was scheduled for May 7. The embassy received his medical report and requested for his passport on May 16. After the passport was delivered on May 20, his visa was issued on May 2023 and he received his passport with the visa on May 30th. -
Administrative Processing at the London Embassy
Moda25 replied to Moda25's topic in US Embassy and Consulate Discussion
@M S Khan Sorry to hear your wife’s visa has still not been issued. I remember you mentioned she is on a visitor’s visa so it could be they’re doing a background check in her home country. Getting the passport back won’t affect whatever checks they’re doing. They’ll request for it back when they are convinced and ready to issue the visa. The same thing happened with my husband’s own. -
Green Card holder living overseas
Moda25 replied to Ali91's topic in General Immigration-Related Discussion
@Ali91 Then forget about naturalizing and continue with your job until you’re ready to move to the US. Entering the US every 6 months will still not make you eligible for naturalization. You need to prove continue residency before you can qualify. -
X-ray must be carried?
Moda25 replied to n.samuraibear's topic in IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports
I learned that K-1 visa applicants receive the X -Ray and carry them with them but all other visas do not. My husband was recently issued his CR1 and he wasn’t given anything in hand. His visa indicated everything is electronic. However, I have a friend who came in with a K-1 last year and she had to carry her X-Ray with her. -
I-130 approved but I-824 required
Moda25 replied to Xavier_'s topic in IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & Procedures
Wow I didn’t know this could be a problem. I’m even surprised they didn’t choose one for you based on your resident address. When I did my husband’s I-130, I chose a consulate in our home country where we were both born but the NVC picked a consulate in his country of residence for his interview which made the process even faster as his country of resident had no backlogs. -
I don’t know if things have changed since I did mine but the interview as I know is mostly about the civil questions and once you pass you’re good to go. When I did mine, I was asked if I wanted to take the oath the same day and I said yes so I waited and did it the same day. She should remember to go with her green card.

USCIS not accepting Expedite Request
Moda25 replied to Stanley1234's topic in IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & Procedures
@Gary RichYou mean your friend’s husband got approved for expedite at USCIS and went through NVC and consular processing all within 10 days? I am finding it difficult to believe this. -
I used to get called when I was a green card holder and I would always write them back that I’m not a citizen. However, I’ve been a citizen for 8 years and have never been called and I’ve never changed states. I wish it remains so though lol.

New I130 or CRBA for new born
Moda25 replied to yangshang0's topic in IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & Procedures
My brother in law used his social security in come statement as proof of physical presence and it worked for him. -
Ghana is known to have backlogs however, if the DQ was since June 2021, then it’s too long. My sister in law and her kids were DQ’d around the same time but they had their interviews last year October and are already here. Maybe the petitioner should try and contact the embassy or let their senator contact them on their behalf.

I-130 evidence when not living together
Moda25 replied to 1234567899's topic in IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & Procedures
You have enough. I only added our marriage certificate and a couple of pictures of us together and our wedding pictures and was approved. Some of these should be for when the beneficiary goes for the interview. The USCIS understands!- 6 replies

The envelopes with which they received their green cards and social security cards should work. Also, haven’t they ever received any mails from either their care giver or any other company before? For my mom’s state ID, I only used two first class mail envelopes, her green card and social security card to get it.

Interview - missing documents
Moda25 replied to marescarcha's topic in Bringing Family Members of US Citizens to America
@marescarcha Could possibly mean they received the document today and kept it in her file. There’s nothing to be worried about. -
Passport and Documents Delivery after Interview with DX Courier service

@SL2024Okay, great! -
Passport and Documents Delivery after Interview with DX Courier service
Moda25 replied to Moda25's topic in United Kingdom
@SL2024 That’s good to know. Congratulations to you. When was your visa issued? -
Unfortunately, no one can tell you how long it will take. Last November, my husband and I were in the same situation with the London embassy. They asked for the original divorce certificate from my previous marriage and I mailed it the same day. I even contacted my congressman after waiting for 3 months. It took 6 months before the visa was issued. I went through hell while waiting. He had to redo his medical exam. Good luck to you and your wife.

Passport and Documents Delivery after Interview with DX Courier service
Moda25 replied to Moda25's topic in United Kingdom
@SL2024 In London! I believe they have only one option to choose from for those in London. I know another person who’s got delayed for only one day. However, I believe everyone’s case is different depending on the delivery driver. They have very bad reviews online though. -
Passport and Documents Delivery after Interview with DX Courier service
Moda25 replied to Moda25's topic in United Kingdom
@SL2024 Trust me, you are lucky if they come on time and I can 99.99% assure you they won’t return with your package because you authorized your grandma to sign. Those delivery drivers don’t care that much. The one my husband had lied twice that he was at his house and there was no one home. Meanwhile, my husband called off from work for two days just to stay home and wait for the delivery guy. He would track the van to a place close to his home and when he thinks he’s finally here, he won’t show up. He finally had to call for them to change him. -
Passport and Documents Delivery after Interview with DX Courier service
Moda25 replied to Moda25's topic in United Kingdom
@SL2024 No, that wasn’t an option. You are not given the opportunity to make any changes. However, I can assure you the delivery company is not as strict as you may think. They don’t care much about who signs and receives the package. -
Passport and Documents Delivery after Interview with DX Courier service
Moda25 replied to Moda25's topic in United Kingdom
@SL2024You have the option to pick it up at the DX store. I won’t advise you take off and stay home to wait for it because most of the time, they don’t deliver it on the same day as the tracking says. If you can work at your grandmas, then do that. I remember after my husband waited for 2 days with no delivery, he had to call their customer service to arrange for the next day delivery. On the 3rd day, he gave his ID to his sister to receive it on his behalf. -
@JeanneAdil Your concerns are valid and I have the same concerns. The problem is that there’s a high chance the new woman will be told and she will still say she can handle it so she could get to the US. When reality finally sets in, she may then leave OP unfortunately. I’m not a prophet of doom but just being honest.

@bnayak Until they’re in the US, a green card won’t be produced regardless of whether you’ve paid the fee or not.
