  1. @ appleblossom Yes - I am fully aware of "visa availability" @ NVC - I am good with that WAIT - I was simply responding to the person who was suggesting "call the congressman" - Just wanted to tell him that it's a mute point at this time, until NVC Priority date has passed and or "Visas are available". Luckily my child is in Canada - Thankfully, there is no big issue with me we go back & forth whenever we want. -s
  2. Depending on your situation & your category - if your receipt (Priority) date is past the date from the one NVC is posting in your category (for visa availability) only then your Congressman and or Senator might take some interest. If your priority date is not 'current' - they will 'punt' your request and will say "talk to us when your priority date is passed". For example - NVC priority date for F2B is showing May 1, 2016 - my receipt date is Sept 11, 2017 - I called my congressman - they said - "We can't do anything until visa's are available in that category" - end of story, sorry. -s
  3. If you arrive in the United States and haven't yet paid USCIS Immigrant Fee, USCIS will send you a payment notice with instructions on paying your fee. You will not receive your Green Card until you have paid the USCIS Immigrant Fee. (As of April 1, 2024, this fee is $235 as listed @ USCIS site) Good Luck & welcome to the United State of America sam
  4. In my opinion - they are 'punting' the blame to each other - I hope there are some KPIs for them, yet there are none - nothing we can do - just wait & wait. -sam
  5. I don't know if you noticed - I was being equally sarcastic to prove a point to "sarcastic audience" - In my career, I am a senior IT person I am aware I can't sue anyone on information provided on Ai. I have proven my point moving forward - it's all good - Thx s
  6. Normally, I don't do these things however, I don't want to "misguide" folks additionally, there is my own 'vested interest' in USCIS delay situation due to my own Canadian child - So, I decided go a bit granular on this "USCIS Fiscal Year" issue i.e. when it starts when it ends for F2B & this is what this humble ignorant found. See attached - So if Google is wrong should I sue them??? Thanks S
  7. I was going to go mute on this "personal attack" calling someone "ignorant" however, I thought I'll respond - I would STOP personal attacks - I' m not a lawyer or a "client" as you mentioned, I may have mistaken with the wrong category, no one is mistake free. Hold on to your attitude seems like you have applied for a STUDENT VISA to the USA and definitely have to learn many things such as respect of for other and BTW lose the attitude. Thanks & chill S
  8. I was reading a note from an Immigration Lawyer who I know personally - I quote: "USCIS Fiscal year starts OCT 1 - I am expecting things will move forward after October 1st" - I will take this on face value & see what goes on after that date. Hopefully, there will be some movement in priority dates. It's really frustrating but nothing we can do - just wait. Sam
  9. Yes - I noticed that there was no movement however, sometimes they move a bunch together, I remember it moved more than a month last time it moved. I know it's highly frustrating, Nothing we can do - just wait. sam
  10. Pls have patience – it may sound like a broken record however, I have the same issue as my priority date is Sept 2017 – it’s been 7 Yrs & 7 Months- Visa bulletin shows F2B category date of May, 2016. So my petition still is 1 Yr 4 months away. Some times, I get frustrated too. It seems like they haven’t recovered from the delays due to the pandemic of Yr 2020 or whatever their excuse is – it is what it is- have patience. God Bless you.
  11. Any updates from NVC on your case ?

      Hi - you did the right thing - however, this market is going to get better in few months. Meanwhile, no movement in "Visa Bulletin Priority dates" - still stuck in mud, spinning their wheels - nothing no one can do - but wait & that is all

      Hi,

      Yes, we need to wait until the date becomes current. I hope you're doing well, and I wish you the best of luck!
       

      P.S. If you hear any news about the IT market, please let me know. If the market improves, California is likely to be the first place where we'd notice changes.

      Thanks,
      David

      I think - we have to wait until election & the new year hopefully we will have some traction in stalled IT job requisitions. At this point it's all quite.

      Hope for the best.

  12. Reading thru the whole thread - In my opinion, the problem is stemming from you guys "changing the phone #" - you said it yourself that "(USCIS) -"it automatically sends a verification code to my old phone number". Now your focus must be to change the phone number from "old to New". Until then this problem will prevail going around in the same cycle again and again. Find a way to change the phone in USCIS record - write a certified mail to them with a receipt. If you don't receive a response - In my opinion, it will be a time to discuss this with a lawyer, sorry. Problem is the new & old phone number. Good luck sam
  13. Like one of the comment says "why do you have login to your USCIS acct?" - I agree, if you want to check the status of your USCIS petition please go to <<https://egov.uscis.gov/>> put your Receipt number in the field provided for it - you will get the latest update on your petition. You don't need to login anywhere for just checking status of your petition - unless there is something else you have you didn't mention in your concern here. Good luck -sam
  14. Depending on urgency/priority level of your travel outside USA - I would suggest you keep your interview date. Very few USCIS field offices offer same day (interview & oath taking ceremony) - Usually, it's interview first and a two/three/four weeks later Oath taking ceremony. I just had gone thru the process, my Interview was in mid June 2023 & oath taking was in first week of August 2023. It's your call (to change the interview date). Thanks & good luck -sam
