Even though the number I posted is a Virginia number, it is the USEM's call center for US callers/petitioners.

Keep us updated! Would like to know what happens. Good luck to you and your wife!

Sooo, here is an update....

My wife had her interview at the earlier date that I had scheduled for her BUUUUT........

She was put on AP....Just Great!! More waiting and who knows for how long. From what I have read it will be a while....

AP is normal. Relax. More patience is needed. You could see your file in and out of AP or you'll see the date change as people touch your record as it's getting prepared for shipping.

I'm sorry I should have explain more / better.... Wasn't thinking!

They did not say she was approved and are requiring her to re submit her Cenormar and NBI Clearance.

Her name was miss spelled on her birth cert. when she was born (both first and last). Later as an adult she had it corrected.

The CO said she has to re submit both using the miss spelled name.... Really???

[Greenbaum 12,259]

Every document must match. Fix one, then you have to fix all.

[CelKranak 0]

Well they all did match, and now with this request they will not match.

Great news!!

AP is normal, everyone has their moment in AP.. some for an hour, some for much longer.

Thanks for the update! That's why I haven't changed my last name to my husband's yet because I don't want to complicate things.

Look at it this way, better to get AP now than an AP on your original date. I hope everything gets easier, a little but more struggle until VISA ON HAND!

Don't know of any benefit to not changing to your married name for the I-130 petition and visa process.

Not changing everything to your married name WILL complicate things. You will still have to get your NBI in your maiden and married name.

Your visa will be in your maiden name.

Later - your green card will be in your maiden name, not your married name.
