Does anyone have any insight on why an embassy would schedule appointments faster for Family Sponsored Perference Categories faster than Immediate Relatives Categories? I understood that Immediate Relative categores are priority in line but it appears this is not the case at the embassy in Tegucigalpa. Also, they have been stuck on Feb- 25 DQed for the last 3 months, while other appointments - Family Sponsored is moving forward with no problem-- screenshotes attached. I have looked at other embassies, and they are not scheduling Family Preference that quickly.

I have a friend whose husband had this problem when he first arrived. She warned me about this being a potential problem. It is because the SSN appears to belong to a "baby" because it is so new, and why would that "baby" need an account. She was part of a small regional bank, so they resolved it right at the bank. I would go to another branch of the bank, and find someone that is patient, knows what they are doing and can help you through the process.

You have to submit financial documents to USCIS. It's part of the process- no way around it, and your wife has to be involved in the documents. Unfornate that this has been kept secret from your family. As said above was a DNA test invovled? Sounds like you are confident he is your son. There is no way to go through this process "secretly".

No more stamps. My husband asked the same question when he entered on his visitor visa and it was all digital now.

How do I find my USCIS Online Account Number
KMG replied to RABBITDANCE's topic in General Immigration-Related Discussion
I could'nt find mine either and left it blank. My I 864 still got approved. -
Wow... That is they least they can do considering all the money we pay, glad to see they are making some progress.

This right here might have caused a red flag. Not including the form in the first packet and then sending it without a signature after the RFE might have triggered suspicion. This process can be stressful, but it is important to comb through all forms line by line to ensure everything is done properly. This administration is not playing. I would follow the others' advice and get a lawyer.

Hello Everyone! What a week!!! Earlier this week, I received a job offer for a teaching contract in the U.S. I had been teaching in Honduras for the last 7 years, and of course, my income did not count for the Sponsorship. Then today, my husband and I received notification from the NVC that we are documentarily qualified. We had a couple of hiccups when they could not open a couple of files we sent, but we made it. I will start employment on August 4th, and the email they sent says we can continue loading documents while we wait. I will load some contracts that I signed this coming week, as well as paycheck stubs I receive, when I start work in August. There is about a 3-4 month wait for an appointment in Tegucigalpa. My questions... Do I fill out a new I-864 when I begin my work? How do I remove the joint sponsor if we choose to do that before his appointment? I think there is a letter they can write? Thank you!

Excuses?! No, no, no... this is a huge ask of someone... no excuses there, it is their personal boundary. No one is obligated to help you with this. If the spouse doesn't want to sign the form, then she doesn't want to sign it, and probably not a wise idea to ask again. I had to find a joint sponsor for my husband and me, and I am planning to return to the U.S. this summer to start employment as a teacher- our plan is to wipe out our joint sponsor before he has his interview. My husband and I did not go in with the attitude that someone is obligated to help us with this. We prepared for a possible brief separation if we couldn't find someone to be a sponsor. That is the responsibility of the U.S. Citizen. This is you and your spouse's responsibility and yours alone.

Questions on NVC income
KMG replied to Silverback's topic in IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & Procedures
You will get a letter notifying you of DQ. I had to reload a document for them that could not be opened, so it seems like we are in the same place. From what I understand, after you replace the documents, they will review them again and send the letter. I rescanned and uploaded my document on Wednesday, so I expect to hear something soon. Make sure you click the "Submit" button again after loading all new documents. -
In total Panick!! Please Advice
KMG replied to WangJig's topic in Adjustment of Status Case Filing and Progress Reports
I would get an immigration attorney if you want to find a way to stay in the U.S. Above all, you need to file for divorce because undisclosed marriages are a huge moral red flag. -
I-130 Online vs. Paper Filing from Overseas
KMG replied to Asui's topic in IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & Procedures
I filed online from abroad with no problems. As you fill out the application, you will be prompted to upload supporting documents, including the I-130A. Bonus convenience is you can continue to add more evidence while you wait for your application to be approved. -
To expedite or not
KMG replied to Veronica S.'s topic in IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports
My husband and I are in the NVC stage right now, about to submit our paperwork this week. That takes about 2 weeks for approval, and then about a 2-3 month wait at the embassy. I have not seen any changes here in Honduras with the embassy. Rumor has it is not the interviewers jobs being cut, it is the people who work in other areas that have been labeled as unnecessary, for embassy function. I think it is rarely safe to measure how long it normally takes for the embassy. We have settled on the fact that we may be separated for about a month or two, but it is imperative I find work ASAP, and hopefully before is appointment. -

KMG replied to Veronica S.'s topic in IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports
You could be approved soon. The other thing is that in March 24 cases, close to, if not over, a million cases were filed because of the fee changes the following month. I imagine it will take them a while to make it through the whole month. Usually, when you see cases ahead of yours still waiting, it is because that case has a cause for further investigation. With that you can still try to expedite. -
Who logs in to the ceac website
KMG replied to RABBITDANCE's topic in IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & Procedures
There are options for all parties to log in. I, the petitioner, have been doing most of the work, as my husband does not understand US paperwork. His job was to find the Joint Sponsor.
