For the London folks: is there an option for the passport to be mailed rather than have to pick it up in London?

I think that another flight to London would give my poor parents financial heart failure!

You can do home delivery or depot pickup, no need to go back to London thank goodness!

Hi Dimple,

Yes you are correct - I have just got back from collecting my Document Pack - and just like London buses - you wait forever and then two come along!!! Yes I have two visas printed in my Passport!! Although one has "cancelled without prejudice" stamped across it. they are identical apart from the serial number!! I can only assume that some over zealous admin person printed and stuck it in my passport twice!! The package had the famous Brown Envelope inside it also - although mine is a big white one - LOL!! Now I need to log in and pay the final $165 to get my Green Card processed!!

I must say that the speed mine has been processed was fantastic, and I'm sure you will soon get good news.

Hang in there it will happen,

Best Wishes,

Chris & Silvia.

Congrats!!! Wow, I see you got a magical early date and already have your visa in hand!!! YAYs!!! My husband also had his interview today and is APPROVED :) I was hyperventilating since he is originally from Pakistan (in England on a student visa), that he would get put into the dreaded AP... however, the heavens showed mercy on us :) Wish you a great fishing trip with your stepson and a lovely journey over to the US!

All the best!!!

Just to add to that -

Immigrant and K visa applicants are required to register with the Consular Section's Visa Information and Appointment Services' contractor for the return of their documents. The documents will be returned by courier at no extra cost to one of the courier's 31 depots in the United Kingdom. Home delivery is available at additional charge of $30.00 per applicant. Please visit https://usvisa-info.com for further information.

Moreover, one of the VJ member also got the information from NVC agent that they are done with scheduling interviews for June with Mumbai consulate. So i was bit worried to get one in June.

That's what I was told by the agent. I am still unable to accept that. However I did do some digging and found that they have scheduled people up until the 12,13,14,15 and sometimes even a few days after. And the Mumbai consulate had even posted the Interview Schedule on the 15th of April as they normally do, and then on May 1st they updated it. I had counted the number of CR1 appointments in the original schedule which was 143 or so, and after they updated it it was 168 CR1 appointments. All this makes me think that we might still have hope.

If it does happen ( which i dont think will ), it should happen before May 15 because on May 15th, the consulate publishes the final interview list.

I agree, and I hope it does. There are too many of us who have waited way to long to have to wait any longer.

Some guy from Mumbai with a CCD of 04/28 got 06/03.

I dont see how anybody with a CCD before 04/30 DOESNT get a june interview.

What ludacris !

Maybe.

If you are an F2A, there is no chance. IR1/CR1, probably. Also keep in mind PD matters. They first look at PD and then CCD as far as i know.

I dont see you have a timeline or a signature with some info.

Hi Hunnymoon,

That's great news - congratulations to you both, so will your hubby POE before the big day now???

Yes we got an earlier medical date - in fact very early, but we didn't pursue it after they told us to let them now when I had had my medical. As we had booked our trip to Spain as we didn't hear from the embassy we were doubly surprised to just get two letters in the post saying my medical had been rescheduled to the 2nd. It all turned out well in the end though and I now have my passport in hand, with the visa, and can go and enjoy the fishing trip, and then we fly back together on the 29th - what a wonderful day that will be and I also get to attend his Graduation on th 30th!! Whoo Hoo!!

Best Wishes and good luck with the big day!

Hi Collie,

As far as I'm aware you cannot go to the embassy to collect the Passports, so they definitely do not need to fly back to the UK! In fact you need to make sure they have registered on the web site, Link here: https://ais.usvisa-info.com/en-gb/iv , and choose your return method - as BOS_LHR stated you can collect from the nearest DX Secure depot (They have one at Belfast Airport) or have it delivered to a private or business address! They need to print out the confirmation form and add it to the package they take to the embassy as it is required when your parents are called to the window for the first time - which is ID and Document checking phase.

Hope this clarifies the process a little.

Best of Luck to them,

Chris & Silvia

I had my medical today :) (and another step closer.)

I'm the beneficiary.

Don't have a timeline? Don't know how to get started with it? Do it for the statistics sake: VJ video guide

Filing for a USC spouse visa (IR-1/CR-1) and not sure what comes next? Check out the VJ IR-1/CR-1 guide

Want to know what's happening with your case? Here's the USCIS tracking page (get an account and see if the case's been 'touched'!). Don't get your hopes up though, some cases never even appear there despite being successfully processed.

Hi Dimple,

Yes you are correct - I have just got back from collecting my Document Pack - and just like London buses - you wait forever and then two come along!!! Yes I have two visas printed in my Passport!! Although one has "cancelled without prejudice" stamped across it. they are identical apart from the serial number!! I can only assume that some over zealous admin person printed and stuck it in my passport twice!! The package had the famous Brown Envelope inside it also - although mine is a big white one - LOL!! Now I need to log in and pay the final $165 to get my Green Card processed!!

I must say that the speed mine has been processed was fantastic, and I'm sure you will soon get good news.

Hang in there it will happen,

Best Wishes,

Chris & Silvia.

It happened!!!!!

My visa status shows as ISSUED on the CEAC website!!! Wohoooo!!

I am such a happy bunny right now.

Hoping I will get my visa in time for 17th now :)
