Hi,

 

I have my final interview in London next week.

 

I have eye issues - multiple retinal detachments that left me with 5% vision in one eye - due to the many surgeries I have had, in my 'good' eye, I have a cataract.

 

I am going to nee surgery on that within the next 6-9 months. Because it is a high risk procedure (not for a normal person, but with my history, it is) I have a private specialist in London that will be performing the procedure.

 

Is there a way to get the expedited advanced parole due to this? And does anyone know if there is a way I can guarantee this? Book the surgery? note form surgeon etc?

 

Thank you

Sadly the K1 has many issues.

 

There are things you can do to help your situation, get married as soon as you arrive and file.

 

Expedites are not guaranteed by and stretch, and due to the number of applications in can take a couple of months just to review.

 

You do have 6 months from the date of your medical to use the K1, or maybe you could postpone the interview or see if the Consulate would revalidate it?

Option 1.
Book the surgery and get note from surgeon…

After you enter the US get married and file AOS packet w I-131 ( include medical records of scheduled surgery and diagnosis). 
As soon as you have receipts/ NOA in hand call in for expedite and or InfoPass and or have your spouse contact Congressman for help.

 

While there is no guarantee, your circumstances meet all criteria for expedite. 

 

Option 2.

Book the surgery, have proof of date and ask to reschedule 2 months AFTER surgery date ( or medical recommendation).  As long as you get to your interview within one year , you will be fine.

try this trick, might or might not work, but worth to try. file AOS without i131 application. after u got the receipt for all by mail, file i-131 and attach i-485 so u dont have to pay. i was in removal proceeding so i cant apply 131. after my case is terminated, i immediately applied i-131. 

 

the day i saw my biometric reused on i-131, i called and asked for expedited request. they approved without extra evidence

total = 8 days from the day i filed.
