Hello everyone, I was DQ on 28 Aug 25, any idea when I can expect the IL? Appreciate its a bit pie in the sky, finger in the air type thing, but any recent indications would be great. The scheduling tool on DoS seems to be all over the place. Thanks in advance! AB

Thank you @appleblossom, confirms my thoughts. I'm not sure if this was a way of pushing for more business via AoS or something. You are right, I am outside of the US right now, in Europe. They have said that if I return (for business) before the via is issued, it's likely I'd be denied entry for immigrant intent. I honestly can't see why that would be the case, with a return ticket and processing underway for consular route. I will try my luck. Thank you for the advice, I'll keep the forum updated with progress as I go along.

Hello everyone, Just after a bit of advice, finding something quite confusing. I have just been approved today for an EB1A [PD 9 June 2025, Nebraska] and my attorney is saying I have the choice of consular or trying for the AOS route. He has said that consular can take over a year to clear through NVC before it reaches London Embassy. Alternatively, AOS will be 8-10 months. Having read this forum, I query this as it seems like the NVC process takes a lot less time, then luckily London is fast to process. I think the Attorney has not handled many UK cases before, but I could well be wrong. If someone could give me a clear answer on what the expected timeline to receiving the immigrant visa in my passport, via consular in London, I would greatly appreciate it. Happy to answer any questions on my journey so far! Thank you Andrew B
