US Immigration from Lebanon

Hello guys, I hope you are doing well all.

My mom got a DS 5535 paper at the embassy in Beirut, her appointment was at March 20th, i have sent the form on March 24th, the date started to update right after on the NVC status, however it is not updating anymore since April 8th (15 days ago), i know we cant do anything timewise but i contacted the embassy by email just to make sure they've received the form, i got no answers, is there anyone within the same boat ?

My fianc 's K1 fianc visa is currently undergoing administrative processing, his interview was in Beirut Lebanon on March 19th, 2024. I'm sure everyone knows the unfortunate conflict that is taking place in Lebanon currently and my fiance and his family had escaped and fled from southern Lebanon since beginning of October to find safety. We were obviously extremely upset once we found out the visa had to go through administrative processing because #1 we want to finally be with each other and start our lives together and 2 which is so important I want to get my fianc to safety and bring him over to me. He has been impacted heavily during this conflict with him fleeing from his home and his family's home getting damaged due to the bombardments around it. It has been such a traumatizing hard time recently and not knowing when we will hear back from them about his visa is absolutely heart shattering. I searched it up what reasons could possibly be counted to expediate his process or hear something back and I saw somewhere where they mentioned a humanitarian reason could be a good reason to have your case expedited. He is suffering from this conflict tremendously wouldn't this be considered a "humanitarian reason"?? I know it has only been a month but the conflict is still going on and were living with extreme anxiety and depression due to it and due to the wait.. Please any advice could help.

Hello all,

I am a legal permanent resident living in the US. My wife lives abroad (Lebanon) and recently (December 2023) got her I-130 approved, so now we are working on the next steps (Affidavit of Support and DS-260). I will be sole sponsor for her as my income in the most recent tax year (2022) is sufficient. In 2023, I worked most of the year as a W2 full time employee until around July, then in November of the same year I began working as a 1099 contractor (self-employed). My questions are as follows:

1. When filling out the Affidavit of Support, in the question related to total income (Part 6, question 24 a, b, and c) should I answer with the "Total income" value as presented in my 1040 forms? Or should I used "Adjusted Gross Income" instead?
2. Can I submit the Affidavit of Support and DS-260 in January as soon as possible without having to wait for the 2023 W2 and 2023 1099 to come out? The reason is I want to submit as soon as possible, and the new tax year might not start before the end of the month. I already provided documentation (Pay stubs, bank statements, employment letters) that prove that I have made more than enough in 2023 to cover sponsoring expenses. I can explain all that in Part 11 of the Affidavit of Support, but I just want to know what is the best course of action here

I appreciate all the help and feedback in advance!
