US Immigration from Philippines

Hello! I m scheduled for naturalization interview on May 1st. I have a pending petition for my minor children (priority date Oct 2021). Can anyone please guide me on how I can update their status once I become a USC?

My parents got DQ d last May of 2023 until now I haven t receive any still saying at NVC. Is there anyone that already have their parents get interview?

Hi all, I've been around these forums for years but finally just about a month ago I got a 2nd job and I finally meet the income requirements for my wife's IR-1 visa for the Philippines. Currently her case is at the NVC and just waiting for my updated paperwork to be submitted. Her priority date is July 3, 2019.

I got my 1st job in Jan 2024 and the 2nd in Mar 2024, before that I never met the income requirements for years. (I did have various jobs before this, but nothing consistent or that got close to meeting income requirements.

My Question is: How long should I wait (if at all), to submit my income information? I just want to make sure I waited long enough and have enough paystubs to have the best chances of being approved.

Thank you so much all!

Good Morning Everyone,

My wife and I submitted our I-130 in August 2023 with a reception date of August 9, 2023. Earlier this week, it showed only 1 week of processing time until a decision would be reached. About 13 minutes ago, it went from 1 week to now 8 months. My wife and I are in shock and do not know what to do or even what to ask.

Could you please provide guidance? Is a change from 1 week to 8 months standard? What does it mean?

Please let us know if you have any questions. Thank you very much for your time and consideration. Have a lovely day.

-Ray.

Hello Everyone,

I am married to a Filipina and our two year wedding anniversary will be April 18th. USCIS started processing our case early July of 2022. We are still at the USCIS stage. My lawyer wants to just file a Mandamus in July of this year. I don't want to spend the 6 grand. I will if I have to though.

He has told me, reaching out to a senator will do nothing, contacting a local lawmaker will do nothing, and contacting USCIS is a "colossal waste of time". I feel like he just wants the 6k for filing the writ. He explained to me that if he files it, his "contact" at USCIS will email him and ask what can be done to avoid going to court.

Does any anyone have any ideas to prevent me from spending another 6 thousand dollars? My lawyer seems confident in his plan, but I just want this petition approved. It's been nearly two years now. Read my other, threads that should answer any questions..
