Hey Everyone,

Wondered what the turnaround for people who had to mail the Civil Documents to DOC Visa is. Feels like mine is taking an absolute lifetime is all.

It has been 5 weeks since UPS delivered them so I was expecting to be DQ'd by now honestly.

All I needed to send was Passport, Birthday Certificate and Police Check.

Anyone else had a long turnaround for DQ'd with the NVC?

Thanks in advance

Hello,

I applied my Wife AOS and now It's still in NBC. I can't even look at the Case Processing Times because I don't know where the Field Office is.

Any document we received from USCIS did not indicate a specific Field Office. I've also read that USCIS NBC delegates this to Field Office(s) for further processing. I wonder what is going on? I know this is a case to case basis but a friend of ours (petitioned his fiancee too) already got theirs after 1.5 months albeit they applied June 2024. They had the same situation as we have.

Here's our timeline:
December 30,2024 -> Received by USCIS, Receipt Notice Set

January 18, 2025 -> Biometrics Appointment
January 18, 2025 -> RFE Notice
January 26, 2025 -> Received Reponse from RFE
February 3, 2025 -> Case still being processed by USCIS

It has been a year and I was wondering if someone here has similar experience with their AOS application. At least I want to know if I can track it, get a glimpse of what we need to expect.

Thank you!

Hello,

We are citizens

Hi, story short , is there any december 2025 k1 applicants that was told accepted at the interview, but still waiting on that text/email to go collect the passport/visa off aramex casablanca ?

We had our interview in late december, they told my fiancee accepted and took her passport and told her everything is alright, now it's been 4 weeks and still haven't heard none from them, they still got her passport tho. I dont wanna hear that January ban thingy because it isn't about k1 and second is because out interview was way before that. Anyone from December still waiting to collect thier passport/visa .

Feels like it's taking forever.

I ll be eligible to file Form I-751 in two weeks.
I currently have a 2-year conditional green card based on my marriage to a U.S. citizen.

My court hearing for a legal name change is scheduled for mid-March, and my conditional green card expires in mid-May.

Can I file the I-751 first and update my name later once the name change is finalized?
Would I need to file Form I-90 in this case?
Or is it better to wait until the name change is completed before filing the I-751?
