I’m so sad to hear that- my parents case was documentarily qualified on May 28th. So looks like I’ll be waiting a lot longer than you

will you be going for your parents interview to Mumbai ? What have you heard about interview experiences at Mumbai particularity for parents ?

I'm super sad as well. It's been a waiting, waiting, waiting game. I called NVC a few weeks ago; there's an expedite process but I didn't feel  i had a good enough case to make for the possible reasons to request an expedite (https://www.uscis.gov/forms/how-make-expedite-request). We started this whole process over a year ago and there's been so much waiting at each step of the process.

I have not read / heard anything. Would love any perspective from you or others on this forum.

It’s been 2 years for me since I stayed this process- but part of it has been due to delay on my side. I will let you know if I hear anything about interview experience at the Mumbai consulate. 

When your parents go get an interview date- will you be going with them to India for their interview ?

Guys I have a question.

 

Im about to sponser my parents, they currently live in South Africa but they're about to leave the country soon to another. 

 

How does it work with USCIS and the NVC when they've relocated?

The best I have seen so far (via this forum) is an IR* case DQ on 4/26 that got an IL in Mumbai on 7/19. I don't know of anyone in IR* who is DQ after 4/26 who got an IL yet. Please let me know if you do.

To all guys whose parents were approved, please tell how did you guys clear public charge condition? News are that majority of parents are being rejected on this basis
