Thank you! And thanks to everyone for their help.

Thank you so much, really appreciate it! Just one last question: I didn’t see an option on the form to upload supporting documents, such as job offers. Is that available at a later step, or is there another way to submit them?

Hello, Thank you so much for your helpful replies. We haven’t submitted anything yet and have reached out to the embassy via email to ask whether we qualify. Would you recommend sending a follow-up email with the job offer attached? Also, is there a specific way to request DCF? When we spoke with the embassy, they seemed a bit uncertain and shared an email address and a code, but we weren’t sure if that was the correct information. Thank you again for your help!

My wife is a U.S. citizen, and I am a U.K. citizen. We have been married for four years (married in the U.K.) and have a two-year-old child together. Due to a recent and urgent family matter, my mother-in-law has been diagnosed with an aggressive form of cancer, we are planning to relocate to the United States as soon as possible to be closer to her. My wife has recently received a job offer in the U.S., and we were hoping to explore the possibility of filing through the Direct Consular Filing (DCF) process with the U.S. Embassy in London, given the circumstances. However, we've had difficulty finding clear guidance on the eligibility and steps for filing. When we contacted the embassy, we were referred to USCIS but were unsure of how to proceed specifically with DCF from the U.K. We would greatly appreciate any guidance or assistance you can provide on whether DCF is an option for us and how we might begin the process if so.
