Hi, are the VJ processing times accurate? Meaning are people who filed IR1 in late December actually being approved at California/Vermont now?

I recall in the past years they mail you a package of prep materials and a CD. Will they still do so?

Hi everyone!

I'm filing Adjustment of Status soon and last thing I need done is translating my birth certificate. I came across a post from some time ago saying that you can actually do your own translation and attach a statement certifying that you're fluent in both languages and that the translation is accurate, sign and date and that's it. Is this still the case?

The documents I'm translating are super easy and took me 10 mins to finish but I'm just wondering if this is actually allowed or is it going to be flagged as conflict of interest, or is there any other formatting requirements I'm missing?

Thanks in advance for your time to help!

My husband had his interview today at Islamabad embassy. They approved all the documents and at the end gave him the 221G white slip that had AP checked off and passport to be sent via courier. He said the interview officer asked for his travel dates to other countries which he gave and then asked for PCC report which he didn t have because he had already left the country and the country doesn t provide non citizens pcc if they have already left the country (listed on the state website as well) Officer didn t give him a chance to explain or ask for other information. He asked if he needs to provide something and reason for refusal, they said they need more time on their end and didn t ask for anything else. They didn t send him any form or ask him to fill out anything to give more information. I know AP has no time frame but in standard cases how long does it typically take or has taken people in their experience?

After report of marriage, what document is required to change my wife's passport into her married name. Where do we get that?Thanks
