US Immigration from Switzerland

In 2017 I overstayed my ESTA for about 2 Weeks because of some personal reasons. beggining of 2019 I applied for an B1/B2 (touristvisa) and got it. since then I already traveled 3 times to the US. Could it affect my I-130 petition or could take longer than usually for an approval? I'm a lil worried.

My Husband file for I-130 by the beginning of february this year. Now we're waiting almost 6 months now to get approved. I hear some people saying they got approved faster then their timeline and they assume it's because of Covid-19 and because they don't process anymore all immigrant visas for as right now. My timeline says about 6-8 Months and I'm waiting and hopeing everyday we get approved. Do they process a little faster now because of the circumstances?

Hey Guys. My husband filed for the I-130 petition for me and my daughter at the beginning of this year. Now we're waiting a little bit over 5 Months to get approved. As I check from time to time my case status I realize that something came up new that didn't stay before. Is this setence: "
It is being processed at our E-Filed Case Processing Section location." 2 Weeks ago this setence wasn't there. Does this mean something about our process is coming forward slowly?

Hi there,

We are currently in the AOS process following my K-1 visa.

A couple of days ago, I have received a I-693 deficiency note, saying that I did not submit the I-693 form (Report of Medical Examination and Vaccination Records).

Since I arrived on a K-1 visa, I did not have to submit the I-693 Form because I had my medical check done previously.

I also called the USCIS Rep Hotline but they were not really able to help us out either.

I'm pretty sure that I don't have to do the medical check again (since again, it had been done already) but we obviously just want to make sure.

Has anybody else had a similar situation and if so, what did you do?

Has anyone of you seen anything similar on their embassy's website?

The embassy in Switzerland obviously only processes emergency visa cases right now and only for the people excluded from the most recent presidential proclamation - so e.g. spouse and children of US Citizens.

When checking their visa section's website for news today, I noticed that they added a comment four days ago stating the following about people excempt from the Presidential Proclamation 9984 travelling to the US:

"Please note you cannot travel using the Visa Waiver Program (ESTA) at this time. Individuals who meet one of the categorial exemptions under the Presidential Proclamation 9984 (i.e. spouse of U.S. citizen/LPR, parent of U.S. citizen/LPR child, etc.) need to apply for a B1/B2 visa in order to document that they meet the exemption."

So does this mean that one would need a B2 visa to fly to the US in order to immigrate?! Or is this a general note that was just added at a weird place on their website?

Wouldn't the IV visa be enough to travel to the US to immigrate? Or is this B2 visa only needed when one wants to travel to the US before actually immigrating?

Also wouldn't the clear immigration intent be a major conflict with a B2 visa? This seems weird to me.
