  1. The CEAC status will change to "At NVC".....and you will receive NVC instructions via an email.
  2. Yes....except that the IL email comes from NVC. This is the process after DQ: 1. Case is DQ'd by NVC. 2. Case then enters NVC queue for your consulate and waits at NVC. 3. Consulate informs NVC of available interview date for upcoming month. 4. NVC schedules interviews for cases at the front of the line. 5. NVC schedules your interview when your case reaches the front of the queue for that consulate. 6. NVC notifies person of interview date via email. 7. NVC then sends case to consulate. After the interview is scheduled, it can take several days to several weeks for the consulate to receive the case.
  3. Here are the I-130 instructions: You might get an RFE. You might an approval. Form I-130, Petition for Alien Relative, and Form I-130A, Supplemental Information for Spouse Beneficiary (uscis.gov) Here is the VJ spousal visa guide which might help:
  4. CURRENT income is king...not what was earned in the past.
  5. Oh, we know immigration law is complex....and there is a lot of knowledge here. We see every situation you could possibly imagine...and more. Your situation is not unique. It is more common than you might think because those agencies keep helping people lie, yet they face none of the consequences. Please keep us in the loop. Your experience is a valuable addition to our database of knowledge. I fear the lack of feedback we see after this type of case is directly related to the success rate of those cases. BTW, you might be surprised at how much bad attorney advice we see here on a regular basis. Good luck. I wish you well.
  6. Interesting concept.....set up state controlled area inside the national border.
  7. ***Two similar threads merged***
  8. Agree. As @boiler said, a Mea Culpa might be the only solution since it is impossible to prove a negative.
  9. He must first file an I-751 package to remove conditions. He can then file for citizenship about a year after filing the I-751 (sometime in 2025).
  10. That can probably be overcome with a waiver.....the hard part would be proving that she was never married....imho.
  11. If you can recover from this, it will be the first I have seen. I hope you will continue to keep us updated. We see this issue a few times a year, but we don't ever hear back.
  12. That's great. Next step- INTERVIEW and citizenship!!!! There is light at the end of the tunnel......and it isn't an oncoming train......it's freedom from USCIS.
  13. I sincerely hope your I-824 is processed soon. The immigration process takes way too long.....
  14. If I remember correctly, you marked the I-130 for both consular processing and adjustment of status. When USCIS receives an I-130, they either hold it if Adjustment of Status is marked, or the send it to NVC if consular processing is marked. In your case, both options were marked, so they need the I-824 to move it to NVC. Unfortunately, immigration isn't cheap. There will be more money to pay.
  15. I think that means only that they have the I-824...not that they have processed it.
  16. Issue 1:The financial support requirement can be met by having a qualified joint sponsor (US citizen or Green Card holder living in the US). A joint sponsor has the same I-864 requirements as the primary sponsor/petitioner. Issue 2: Your wife will have to show evidence of US domicile or the intent to re-establish domicile in the US. She will either have to move to the US ahead of you or she will have to show evidence of concrete steps taken toward re-locating to the US. You can show in-laws address as intended initial location.
  17. Yep. Philippines is still the world-wide leader in number of K-1s issued per year, I believe...by far.
  18. Any rescheduling will have to be done by the consulate. You should contact them and explain if you want to reschedule.
  19. ***Moved to Effects of Major Family Changes To Immigration Benefits***
  20. Is this correct? More info, anyone? I can't find anything official from USCIS....just a couple reports about it buried in employment-based visa information. USCIS Filing Fee Increase Deferred to Early 2024 | Latest Updates (iiusa.org)
