CR1- CAN I REQUEST FOR AN INTERVIEW DATE? (MILITARY CASE)

[jennynguyen1404 0]

Hello everyone,

My case is in NVC now. It will be completed around September 20th if without checklist.

After it is completed, I'm gonna request an expedite interview date with the reason that my husband is in U.S military.

I'm not sure that I can request or not so anyone knows or has a case same as mine then please let me know some information about:

- Can I request an expedite interview?

- If yes then how to request an expedite interview and is there any requirement about this?

Thank you so much!

It is my understanding that you can only expedite if your husband received orders to PCS overseas or deploy, however, here is some information off of USCIS.gov: http://www.uscis.gov/archive/archive-news/frequently-asked-questions-immigration-information-members-us-armed-forces-and-their-families

This may apply:

Q. How can I expedite my Petition for Alien Relative (Form I-130) to bring my spouse to the United States? Is there any way she/he can enter the United States while the petition is being processed?

A. Citizens of the United States, who are serving in the military and have a pending Petition for Alien Relative (Form I-130) on behalf of their spouse, may e-mail or telephone the USCIS military assistance team and ask for expedited processing of that petition. During that time, your spouse may enter the United States on a K-3 nonimmigrant visa. To get a K-3 visa, you must file a Petition for Alien Fiancé(é) (Form I-129F) on behalf of your spouse. An approved Form I-129F will allow your spouse to enter the United States. If USCIS approves the I-130 petition while your spouse is in the United States on a K-3 visa, she/he can file an Application to Register Permanent Residence or Adjust Status (Form I-485) to become a legal permanent resident.

Thank you for your help. I checked out the link you post above and read your post carefully already. I'm confused that my case is now in NVC so is it right if I call or email to USCIS?

Your husband needs to email or call USCIS, there might be documentation he needs to send to USCIS.
