    Could you go and live with her instead? Did you not get a formal denial notice/letter?

    I was hoping it would have more info than that. Did you get a proper letter specifying the misrepresentation/fraud after the interview? It still seems odd that it's only due to wedding photos. Unless as Boiler said, it's to do with the K1? But your lawyers should know more details and hopefully have put a really good case together for your waiver.

    I wonder if somebody reported you. They wouldn’t usually give you a 5 year ban just based on a suspicion. Might be worth submitting a FOIA to get your case notes.

    Did they have evidence of that? Emails/text messages etc? Which country are you from?
  12. appleblossom
    You can apply but it’s not likely to be granted, why the 5 year ban?
  13. appleblossom
    Can you post the denial notice (taking out any personal info)? It really doesn’t seem right that they haven’t just asked for more proof of a bonafide marriage.

    It’s just an enquiry at this stage, you’ll submit all docs/proof later on. Your wife will need the written job offer with start date on it, to show they need her urgently. And ideally evidence of how she got the job (just to show it’s legit i.e. not a family member giving her a ‘job’). So job advert/emails about an internal transfer/contact from headhunter etc. Best of luck.

    I agree, something isn’t adding up. Were you at the interview?
  29. appleblossom
    Yes, this form, is this what you've already submitted? https://uk.usembassy.gov/family-immigration-i-130-exceptional-circumstances-request-form/

    Because there is no visa available anyway they don't rush to approve I-130's - most people want them to take as long as possible if there are dependents to consider. Even immediate relatives that filed in March 2024 are only just getting their approvals now, you are likely to still have a way to go. Good luck.

    For processing times look at the USCIS website, that's usually pretty accurate. As you say it's currently 34 months for 80% of cases, so you aren't likely to hear anything until 2027 ish. If the waiver is granted, they'll then issue the visa. What was the issue with the wedding photos and what other evidence of it being a legitimate marriage did you provide?

    You can filter by EB applicants only. By consulate. By country. Etc, etc. Sounds like you've not been utilising it correctly. There aren't enough EB timelines on the forum, but that's because people don't bother to complete theirs, despite me asking at every opportunity! If everybody took 5 minutes to fill their VJ timelines in, it would be an even better resource, and it's a great way to 'pay it forward' and give help back to the community that has helped us. Google sheets are only as good as the person hosting them, which means they are often out of date or forgotten about. If everybody that contributed their data to the Google sheet did the VJ timeline instead, that data would be useful forever.

    That doesn't mean those with 2 year GC's can't file an I-90 if they lose it, it is just telling people they can't use that form to remove conditions (some people may think that's all they need to do to get the 10 year green card). But if you've removed conditions (I assume, as you say you're no longer a conditional PR?) and are about to get a 10 year GC then you'd don't need to replace your 2 year one.

    On the monthly issuance page. https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/legal/visa-law0/visa-statistics/immigrant-visa-statistics/monthly-immigrant-visa-issuances.html They should always give immediate family priority over family preference and employment based, but if (for example) they have 5 times as many IR's in the line waiting for an interview, it will just take longer for them to get through them.

    If you only applied in Feb 2024 then you've still got a long way to go. You may find others with similar cases, but you'd need to give more info - what were the reasons a waiver is needed?
