US Immigration from United Arab Emirates

Hi,

Has anyone received any communication from the NVC regarding case processing / reviewing during these unprecedented times?

I noticed that the NVC did not update the processing time today (23 Mar) so was wondering if anyone got communication just to see if they are still processing and/or reviewing documents that have been submitted.

I am currently in the process putting all the docs for I-130 such as Copy of my naturalization, passport copy and copy birth certificate. Do I need to include my mother s copy of birth cert and passport copy? Any input will be much appreciated! Thank you

Hi ppeople,

We paid the AOS and IV fee on Monday and Thursday the CEAC showed payment status "PAID".

The AOS form is now available. My wife currently has a job in the US and earns well above the minimum limit. But this is her first year there and she will just file her 1st return. Prior to that she was living with me in Dubai and unemployed. So for the other 2 years should she write a letter explaining why there wont be returns?

Is there a need to look at joint sponsors to make the case stronger? Is it even possible? Strangely cant seem to find a lot of material on this.

Hello - we just received our K1 visa and my fianc is planning to move to the states next month (April). Before he moves, he needs to give a 30 day notice at work, in which they will cancel his current work Visa (he s from the Philippines but works in Dubai).

He has not given his notice yet because we re concerned that the US may close it s borders if this pandemic continues. If he gives his notice and after 30days the borders close, he will be without a job and a Dubai work Visa and possibly have to fly back to the Philippines. We re not sure what to do at this point, if He should take the chance and resign and hopefully be let in the country or wait till this pandemic dies down (but God knows how long this will last!)

If the US borders close, do you think they will allow K1 visa holders?

So interview was Sunday in Abu Dhabi. It went great, my fianc did get a blue 221g requesting my sons medical file. I was there with him so he told my fianc to have me email him the papers requested as he was there for 2 more hours. He said if he had the papers he would have approved him on the spot. They kept his passport. Told him within 10 days he should have it. My fianc s passport expires on March 19 for UAE and he has to exit the country by April 15. The officer knew this. Last night he gets an email to pick up mail at empost from the visa department. It was his passport back with a white 221g that has the passport box checked and handwritten the embassy will contact you. That s it. Could this be because the embassy closed and they didn t want to hold his passport with it expiring and will wait until it opens again ? We are so confused. We had tons of proof and even the interview went good. Thoughts ?
