US Immigration from Dominican Republic

Any comments about your expedite requests experiences appreciated here!

I have submitted numerous expedite requests. About (6) so far. The last two have been send and responded with an answer on the same day. They have came back the same day advising they sent my case to consulate and my case cannot be expedited.

Are these automated messages? How can they possibly send my case to consulate and determine it cannot be expedited on the same exact date I send the request?

Recently my husband's birth certificate was rejected. I realize the scan looked more like a copy than an original. I don't know if that's the only issue or if they want the "long" version instead. We submitted the "short version." Can someone who has had their documents accepted by NVC please weigh in, did you submit the long or short version and what was the result??

Hello!

our k1 visa is now ready. As per the directions on ustraveldocs.com, we paid the DS 160. The next day we received the email to schedule VAC and interview. However, there are VAC apts but no embassy interview apt. It did not allow us to advance and kept saying go back and select new dates. Eventually it locked us out for to many views. I called and they said tomorrow it should open. They recommend checking no more than twice a day as interview days are released at the discretion of the embassy.

has anyone recently had this problem for Dominican Republic embassy? Any suggestions? Or have things changed and now they will schedule interview?

thanks

He has been waiting for a decision from USCIS regarding his N-400. He is thinking of sending a letter to his state representative or senator can someone help me with what should be the context of the letter?. Or how should i word it since im helping him with the letter. His case is pending in San Diego California.

Welcome and Congratulations on your approval!

NVC sends petitions every two weeks on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. Someone very helpful has created a chart for 2023 that you can use to track when the next shipment date will be. It seems to line up with all the dates I ve seen so far so I think it s accurate and will include it below.
