    It does not hurt to try it. We did it back in 2021: sent the I-130 in 23 August 2021 and as soon as we received the NOA1 (same day since we filed electronic), we filed a paper I-129F and sent it in right away (like two weeks after). Our I-130 was approved in two months, Approval was 01-NOv-2021. Did the I-129F help? may be, may be not

    Visa has a validity (issue date and expiry date). As long as visa is not expired, you are good

    The requirement is to have the vaccination (2 shots) and the doctors will not schedule a medical without the vaccine sheet. The website where people used to download the certificates for the vaccine have been deactivated a while ago. Covid cases are picking up in Morocco, and they are tracking it again. They should find scans of the certificate of the small cards they made for the vaccine at some point when they required them for travel. Need to look harder to find it. Worst case scenario is to contact the consulate and try to get a waiver

    They have been very slow in the last year scheduling appointments. Check at the Morocco portal for similar cases waiting for appointment scheduling from Casablanca consulate.

    Some chat applications don’t have the possibility to export chat. Also, whatsup does not allow to export media with the chat. anyway, the screenshots worked for us perfectly.

    We were asked for chat history during the interview. We submitted screenshots dating from when we first met, and then 6 month after that, and 6 months after that until we covered all the two years. we submitted 160 pages of screenshots, each page had 6 pictures of iphone pro max screenshots of chat. i hope this helps

    Our experience: after 16 months under AP after CR1 interview, status was changed to IR1 when they (Casablanca US consulate) called to ask for an updated medical. visa was issued two weeks after they received the medical. Good luck

    SSN card received in the mail one week after POE. The process is working. Now only waiting for the Green Card: status still shows "Immigrant Visa Fee Payment Received".

    It should be anytime now. is there any courier service in the process? you can also track the passport through ustraveldocs.com

    Changing consulates is not a given: the interviewee must have legal residency in the country of interview. my thoughts to you is to just wait it out and prepare for the interview as much as possible. I know the wait game is tough, but it is easier than complicating the case with unneeded changes. My wife was on AP for 16 months after the interview, and we just got her visa last month. Just be patient and wait it out. You are almost there.

    Congratulations. We had the same thing happen to us last September: The consulate in Casablanca called my wife asking for a new medical. The medical was completed on 21-Sep. Visa was issues two weeks later on 04-Oct. But again, all cases are different.

    There will be. most likely, no questions asked if enters the US before one year of his departure. But this will create a gap in his stay in the US if he plans to apply for Naturalization with 3 years

    The answer is very simple: we asked an immigration officer to update the address at POE. The address was updated in the system right away. No forms needed.

    POE at JFK airport, NY about two hrs ago. Everything went perfect. Change of Address was handled by immigration officers at the immigration office, not even 10 minutes wait time. This update marks the end of the I-130 / CR1 turned IR1 journey. Thank you VJ for all the support and advice.

All docs are sent online. Only DV lottery visa have that envelope with their visa. planed POE at JFK, NY on 28-October.
