My husband attended his IR1 visa interview in Guatemala and the consular officer told him his visa was approved. However after a month of waiting no passport yet.
he does have two approved waivers. The I-212 and the 601-A waivers.
What is the Wait time frame to receive passport back after consular interview with and I212 and 601-A waivers. Any one here that went through same process?

I have no idea what is going on at the USCIS offices but its clear to me they are completely inefficient workers.

We filed i290b after USCIS claimed missing information related to i864-untrue.

My husband spend around 2hrs+ on putting together evidence and explanation of their error along with i290b

Guess what they done? Returned the entire package stating-"one or more of the following fields were not completed"

-information about the appeal or motion

1.There is no such field

2.The form was filled out in its entirety

3.98 pages of supporting documents was also sent

What is the script at this totally inept government institution?

I think its time they hired monkeys.

Hello everyone,

We are getting ready for the interview. I have 2 questions and need some help. Also my apologies if these questions have already been asked and answered before.

1) We recently had a baby. The original birth certificate was sent away as part of the passport application. Is a child s original birth certificate required or will a photocopy be accepted?

2) Does the i864 form for a joint sponsor need to be filled out again and uploaded before the interview?

thank you!

Hello! My fianc is to have his interview next week. All our paperwork is ready but I have a few questions.

1. for the affidavit of support if I am taking full responsibility in supporting him financially does he have to sign the beneficiary part?

2. Has anyone gone through the interview process and if so how was it?

3. Do they tell you that day that you got approved?

4. How long does it take to get your passport back with the visa?

Thank you!

Hello,

My fianc is from the Philippines, but is currently working in Thailand as a teacher and will be returning to the Philippines late February or early March of next year when her contract is finished. Should I make her current address the Thailand address and the address in the Philippines a previous address? My only concern is her address will change while the package is with USCIS and this might raise a red flag. How do I document or express future plans for her to move back to the Philippines?
