Priority dates don't mean anything for CR-1 visas so just ignore that. The NOA1 date is the only one to care about at this stage.

PS: you said you got NOA1 in March but sent it in april ... So something is off with your dates

Now you're at Nebraska it's just a case of waiting about 5 months with us all.

[Mr T 1]

Sorry I misspelled I meant sent March got noa1 in April and what the next step like what's docs I need from my wife for visa process and will they send any letter to me in India for what to do next how much is the fee is pending still for visa ? Or the next process?

[Mr T 1]

And what they basically do with the petition what do they check and why to they take that long like 5 months

[NikLR 13,231]

Because there's a stack of papers and people can only work so fast.

The USCIS has an adjudication manual online somewhere. You could google it I'm sure.

As for the rest, read the guides in the wikis.

All the information you need is there.

Just takes that long to get to yours in the pile and check everything is there to pass it onto NVC. And send RFEs for missing info.

That's why it's literally just a waiting game

Yes, I know. What I mean is if you want to be together very quickly did you not consider a K1 visa before you married? I hate the wait just as much as everyone else but it doesn't make much sense to complain about the length of separation if you had the K1 option before you got married.

We looked into K1 and although it had the advantage of being able to live together sooner, it wasn't right for us because we can't afford for me not to work as I make a lot more than my husband. He makes minimum wage. Also I wasn't happy to have no real status in the country for several months. So although we are stuck with this awful wait, I take comfort in the fact that it's a superior visa which is better for us and my status on arrival will be LPR, with full employment and travel rights.

I understand your point however he wasn't trying to move here because he's financially stable and got a lot going for him there. The main aim was me to finish school and see where I can secure a better job and see what's next but life is unpredictable and as much as we plan it, it has surprises for us. Now we're looking to start a family and other things so by weighing all options for right now, it's better at least he can come in the country anytime he want. I swear if they will grant him just an ordinary visa, our lives will be much easier. Ghana embassy keeps getting tougher and tougher.

My husband was revoke cause I didn't know top keep all evidence. So want bonefish evidence like insurance policies taxes done together. I didn't bring in chat enough chats phone logs I only visited once which is a huge mistake for ghana. I have learned so much from some ladies in my group who have gotten approved
