Sent in the AOS & IV forms - now what?

[saracita 0]

OK so last week we sent the AOS and IV forms for my husband's IR-1 visa. What will happen next?

If I get a RFE how long is it likely to take after they received our packet?

I read about a biometrics appointment, is that for IR-1 visas or is that something else?

Thanks!

You should hear something 1-2 weeks after the receive it. You will either get an RFE or case closed notification and then depending upon country they will they schedule the interview.

The IR-1 will need a medical exam and biometric appt. Each country is different on how to schedule those and you will need to check the NVC website for your consulate you will be working with.
