Super psyched to see how fast London processes visas! Congratulations guys :D

I wanted to be out of the UK by the Saturday after my interview (four days after) but not only is that cutting it a bit fine, that's the only date all my friends are off work so we can go out and say goodbye :dead:

ROC from CR-1 visa (Green Card expiration date was Nov 24th 2016)

 

Link to the evidence I submitted. Be sure to send evidence spanning your entire marriage (especially for K-1) or as far back as you can. Just one or two bank statements will not cut it. I primarily focused on the two years of living here since I came in on a CR-1. If you don't have the fundamentals (i.e. joint accounts/policies), you can explain why in the covering letter. E.g. "While we do not have joint utilities, we both contribute to them from our joint bank account".

 

September 26th 2016: I-751 package sent to CSC

September 28th 2016: Package delivered
September 30th 2016: Check cashed
October 3rd 2016: NOA1 received with receipt date of 09/28/16
November 3rd 2016: Biometrics received with appointment date of 11/14/16.
November 14th 2016: Attended biometrics appointment
October 30th 2017: Infopass appointment to get I-551 stamp
February 26th 2018: I-751 case number (aka the NOA1 receipt number) becomes trackable
March 14th 2018: Submitted service request due to being outside of processing time.

March 15th 2018: ROC approved. 535 days (1 year, 5 months and 17 days)

March 29th 2018: Card being produced

April 4th 2018: Card mailed out

April 6th 2018: Card in hand. Has incorrect "resident since" date. Submitted service request on I-751 case (typographical error on permanent resident card) and an I-90 online.

April 2018 - August 7th 2018: Tons of service requests, emails and now senator involvement to get my corrected green card back because what the heck, USCIS. Also some time in May I sent a letter to Potomac telling them I want to withdraw my I-90 since CSC were handling it.

August 8th 2018: Card in production thanks to the direct involvement of Senator Sherrod Brown's team

August 13th 2018: Card mailed

October 31st 2018: Potomac sends out a notice stating they have closed out my I-90 per my request. Yay for no duplicate card drama.

Hello make sure you take your 2012 and 2013 w2 forms when you go for the interview. I had submitted the IRS tax transcript at NVC and my wife had a copy of it with her. But they asked for the W2 forms. That's how I got 221g.

thanks for quick reply but can you explain what this update is about pls ?

No one can tell you what we don;r know what they are doing. As I said earlier its an update they are preparing for your interview just like you are. Remember background checking. if they need to look at emails, whatever every time they touch your case they is an update. Nothing to be concerned about.

Hello make sure you take your 2012 and 2013 w2 forms when you go for the interview. I had submitted the IRS tax transcript at NVC and my wife had a copy of it with her. But they asked for the W2 forms. That's how I got 221g.

What is this 221g for? They dont give you visa right away? Or you have saw proof and then you fine?

Good morning everyone!!!! I got my interview date on 10/3014 for 12/15/14 do you guys know about how long does it takes for the embassy to received all documents, I would like to request an earlier interview.

Also am I going to get all the original papers before the interview??

thanks in advance!!!

All you can do is call NVC usually after a week. You were scheduled last week call like Friday and see. Once they tell you when they sent you can track with DHL. Or better yet just follow your status on the ceac site.

Every embassy sends out differently.

I have noticed that some embassy hold a while.

Yes you get originals back at interview.
