Visa Class IR1 by mistake.

[Mazlyn 15]

So I noticed my visa class says ir1 and not cr1. I am married less that 2 years. So how can I fix that mistake and was that a mistake i did when applying for the i130? My husband didn’t have his interview yet. Will this mess up things?

File I-90 immediately. Don't sit with that card because it'll come bit you later

Should We wait until my husband has a visa interview? We didn’t finish uploading documents or the application on ceac yet so should we wait until he is issued a visa?

This is independent of your husband's

So he should file that I-90 form at his interview or when he comes to america? He currently is not living in america.

The i-90 only comes into play when he is issued green card that is incorrect,  as you have to return the wrong green card at that time.

There’s no I-90 to file. Husband didn’t even interview - yet to finish NVC and get interview. 
 

I wouldn’t worry until visa in passport and even then it can be fixed at POE.

Oooo I don't know what I'm smoking. 

I thought she had a GC already. 

 

Thanks for rectifying this. @Mazlyn follow the advice of the above two. I do apologize. It's been a hectic day.

My husband’s case is at nvc our i130 petition  was approved.

We married last September in 2021.

November we applied for the i130 petition 2021.

 September 1 2022 our petition was approved then about September 3 or 5 it was sent to nvc and we got email from nvc with our case number, which was fast.

 the nvc site I noticed it that it said visa class ir1

That "IR1" message doesn't have much meaning.  You do not need to specify it as IR1 or CR1 at this point.  At the interview the CO will check the marriage date and issue a CR1 visa or IR1 visa accordingly.

The visa, when issued, is typically  valid  for 6 months. 
 

You were married September 2021. If the visa is issued March 2023 or later then he should wait until your 2 year wedding anniversary to enter the USA. This way a 10 year green card is the correct process, and he avoids I-751.  
 

If the visa is issued before March 2023, then no point waiting, and he should enter the USA immediately. If he is issued  a 10 year gc, this is a mistake, and he can deal with that then by filing I-90. I would not file I-90 until I had a REAL ID state ID and an unrestricted social security card in hand.  Regardless he will have to file I-751 when it is time to do so.

Yeah everyone says he can get it fixed once he is here but maybe at interview they will give him the right visa class. Im sure these mistakes happen alot and some interview officers notice the mistake so he will be okay regardless.

Nothing to fix because no visa has been issued yet
