US Immigration from Ukraine

Suppose someone is in removal proceedings with multiple grounds for removal and no "defenses to deportation" apply. If one of the grounds, e.g. a domestic violence conviction, cannot be overcome by fact or legal argument, would the IJ schedule a merits hearing for the other grounds to be contested, if the alien cannot avoid deportation due to the DV ? From what I read, it seems there would be no need for a contested hearing because it would not change the outcome, but I wondered if someone more certain could respond.

Good afternoon. I ask for advice. This is the situation. In January of this year, my husband filed 130i petition for me and my two children. in March, a letter was received to provide additional information. The immigration agency my husband contacted did not send a passport size photo. and in the end, the children's petitions were approved, and my petition was rejected. in June, the immigration agency filed an appeal. but as it turned out to the wrong address. the appeal was returned. the agency manager resubmits the appeal, but to a different address, and there is no information. Where can I find out the correct address for filing an appeal? and how can you find out the result of the acceptance of the appeal? if someone had a situation with an appeal, please write.

who has nvc time ??

I filed an I-130 for my wife and her daughter in late-April 2021. They were independent applications and were filed and paid the same day. My wife s was assigned to NSC and my step-daughter s to PSC. Given the approval estimates I m seeing, there will be a big difference in the approval dates.

Our marriage occurred prior to the daughter s 18th birthday. She is currently 18. Our consulate will be Kyiv Ukraine if that matters to you.

1. Is it normal for two related I-130s to be assigned to different service centers?

2. Is the 21 year old limit for the daughter related to the I-130 file date or it s approval date?

Thanks,

David

how long did you wait for the approval of the NVC documents?
