US Immigration from Egypt

I applied for CRBA for my new born babe in Egypt but i dont see no appointment available at all in 2024 or 2025

what should i do

Hello,

I was waiting for my interview at the embassy in Cairo for CR1 marriage visa and green card (Have approved I130 and DQ since June 2023), however my company transferred me inside the US with L1A visa.

They have filed for me the AOS and asked for the I130 approval notice and I received the receipt notice for I-485 yesterday with biometrics scheduled next week.

Questions:

1- Will have an already approved I130 notice make the process much easier? I have a priority date in the notice of March 15 2022 when we started our immigration journey, would that make it faster than the normal processing times I'm seeing of 12-18 months?

2- If the answer for number one is no, If I get a lawyer or attorney to support with that would it make a difference?

3- We had a baby 3 months ago when I entered the U.S! would that be a strong evidence where I can send the birth certificate and email them to move my case faster?

4- What is the normal timeline and events? I know it's receipt notice then biometrics then an interview, is there anything I'm missing?

5- I received the receipt notice with national benefits center in the bottom, is that my service center? Because I can't see any processing time for this service center.

Thank you and sorry for the long post!!

I will transfer money from my homeland to USA to start my immigration journey.
I am wondering whether this money will be taxable or not.

How to prove that this money were my savings before getting the green card?

Hi All,

My wife was DQ'd last month and wanting to see if expediting my case for one of the following reasons would be appropriate. I know it's hard to tell but any info can help.

1) my newborn son is currently with his mom. He was born in Egypt and is a US Citizen who has his CRBA certificate and passport. He is currently getting sick a lot due and has a weakened immune system due to the poor hygiene in the country. I'd like for him to come to America to get treated but he obviously can't be here without his mom.

2) I have a major shoulder issue that requires surgery. I have no one to support me so I'd like to see if my wife can have an expedited interview to come support me.

Thank you!

Hello filing taxes has been a pain. Spouse doesn t have an Itin number and it s impossible to get it unless he mails his passport to me or I take it with me to us which lawyer is advising against both. Accountant said he can file a paper return and write Non Resident Alien in place of the Ss#. He said these are taking about 5 months to get processed. If the i130 gets approved soon I m gonna be screwed waiting for that return. Anyone dealing with this? Filing single instead of married?
