Hello -

I am a USC. My husband is a UKC, currently serving in the British military. I filed the I-130 petition in September 2014. We are still waiting for approval. It is likely that the petition will move to the NVC (and consulate) before my husband is discharged. (He has an official discharge date, which can be confirmed by the military.)

My understanding is that the NVC (and London Consulate) will require a copy of his military records, which includes his discharge certificate. However, as previously stated, he will not yet be discharged.

Has anyone run across this situation before, and if so, what the impact is on the visa process and issuance where the beneficiary currently serves in a foreign military? All the documentation requirements speak with the presumption that the beneficiary has had prior military service.

Thanks.
