Hello all,

I just got the NOA2 for my wife who is an Iranian but living in India for the past 6 years - We have already been apart for well over 2 years (because I had a green card when we got married). I am really hoping the process goes fast. Is there any information about whether women have a faster AP then men from these countries?

I am not certain but I think (and also hope) that women have easier time going through the process! After all it's mostly men who are trouble makers! :lol::D

Seems that women do have an easier time, I don't really understand why. Do keep in mind that if she traveled to the EU this might cause some delay as they want to check if she has "terrorist ties". Pretty much it is a toss-up with various factors playing a part.

My wife has not been abroad even once in her life! Something helpful in the process?! Who would have thought?! :dance::lol:
