Edward and Jaycel

Yes me too and I am running out of ways to connect so if I go dark on the site, that is why. I cannot even connect with cellular data anymore That connection I had with no VPN above lasted about 10 minutes and then the site was timing out again for me

I second this... If it qualifies, just use income and don't bother with assets. That's what we did for Jaycel's interview in Manila.

Now I can get on with no VPN 🤷‍♂️

Their biometrics were taken at the embassy interview stage and do not need to be repeated unless and until they file for another immigration benefit (I.e.: naturalization) and USCIS schedules them for a new biometrics appointment. The biometrics they did in support of their immigrant visa application satisfies the Alien Registration Requirements now being enforced.

Congratulations!! 🎉🎉

Interviews are not easy to come by… I would do anything and everything in your power to make the one that got scheduled. You could be looking at months of delay in rescheduling a new one. Good luck

While waiting on action for Jaycel’s I-485, we have been uploading joint bank account statements, joint credit card statements, joint utility bills, pictures of us at social events with friends, pics and boarding passes of a trip we took together, our joint Costco membership details, now that she has her driver license we included the updated car insurance policy with her as an “operator” on the policy and the proof of insurance card with her name on it

I cannot reach it from my Spectrum direct connection or any of Spectrum’s internal VPNs now… I have cycled through all 9 of them and it eventually failed on all of them. I can only get to the site from my mobile phone now

I can get to it now without VPN

Yeah it seems to be all over the place...

Oh let me get off the VPN here at the office and see if I can connect

Yes Spectrum mobile (which is what I have as well since I get the employee discount LOL) is pretty good. We are a MVNO which means that your connection rides on Verizon Wireless' network since we don't own the underlying cellular network. I have never had an issue anywhere in the country that I've been with the service.

Yes, once it hit my XFinity connection that's where my mind went too but I do not know enough about modern internet routing to have any confidence in my theory. LOL

Full disclosure - I'm an engineering manager at Spectrum - but in Telephony, not High Speed Internet. I'm on the Spectrum network here in the office and I can't get to it here unless I use one of our 8 VPNs. That keeps me on the Spectrum network but from an Internet Drain somewhere else in the country. Like you, it's fine for a while and then dies and I have to switch to a different VPN. I really thought it was a Spectrum issue until it started failing from my home XFinity connection. Neither do I or the other VJ member I know has the same issue

I thought so at first... but now it's affecting me at home and there I have XFinity

OMG that's how I felt That's why I felt like I was going crazy LOL

Ok so first? Thank you now that me and one of the other members having an issue know we're not going crazy I have the same thing, I get on a VPN and its good for a while then starts timing out again until I change VPN locations and I can't ping the site either when it happens

Myself and a few other VJ members have been experiencing issues getting to the VJ site for the last week or so. It seemed to start with Spectrum Broadband as that is the service in my office and another member's home service. We could not connect from that service, but when switching to another internet provider (Going home and getting on XFinity Broadband in my case - Using mobile hotspot to connect for the other VJ member) It seemed to resolve for a day or so earlier in the week and then it started timing out again but this time it was not only Spectrum Broadband but had now spread to XFinity Broadband. I can still reach the site via my browser on Verizon Network Mobile phone. Don't know if this is a wider internet routing issue or site related but wanted to make sure the admins here were aware. Tagging some folks that I know are Mods/Organizers @Ontarkie @Ban Hammer @Crazy Cat

Fantastic news!! 🎉🎉

WOW.... They just started allowing this recently and they're changing it already. Thanks for catching that!

Yes proof of current income should be included with any sponsor. You can respond through the portal if the RFE states that you can. A friend of mine got an RFE and it said this on it: You must either mail the requested information to the address shown below or scan and upload your response using your USCIS online account (if applicable).
