I'm not that lucky either.

I have now heard of 2 VJ I-1751s that were filed in February that have been approved without interview. Anyone else? Probably just a lucky few outliers to decrease the average time, but it makes me wonder if the wait time will be going down.

@stag There is also a thread for Feb 2022 filers

Congratulations! Best of luck.

Thanks, @Crazy Cat! Overall, I realize we have been lucky in our journey compared to others. Just need to find a little energy to get through this next step.

Also filing towards the end of the month. Anyone else feeling immigration journey burnout? A couple of questions: 1. The application fee and biometric fee are paid together, correct? 2. For bank accounts, are people using bank statements? If so, should we use older bank statements so that it shows a joint bank account wasn't recently created? Best of luck to everyone!

Hello, I (petitioner) received a termination letter from the NVC today. Saying I hadn't completed the immigrant visa application, paid feed or submitted required documents. When I contacted the NVC last year (March 2020) they said there was nothing to do until the application was sent to the embassy in Ghana. I having been checking on the application periodically, and it hadn't moved from NVC, but figured the hold up was due to COVID and there wasn't anything else for me to do. Did I miss something? Any advice? Thanks, KateD After U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services approved the immigrant visa petition filed on your behalf, the U.S. Department of State's National Visa Center (NVC) sent you instructions for: · Completing your immigrant visa application, · Paying fees, and · Submitting required documents. Our records show that you did not submit these items and you have not contacted NVC in more than one year. Immigrant visa applicants must apply for an immigrant visa within one year after they are notified that a visa number is available for them.

This letter serves as notice that a visa number is available for you. If you do not pursue your immigrant visa application at NVC within one year of the date of this letter, the U.S. Department of State will begin the process of terminating your visa application.

No, I do not want to pursue my immigrant visa application because I have received an immigrant visa through another petition and am now a permanent reside. (Please attach a copy of both sides of your alien registration card.) No, I do not want to pursue my immigrant visa application because I am no longer interested in immigrating to the United States. Please attach a statement in writing directing that the petition be withdrawn. An authorized representative (the petitioner or attorney of record) must sign it.
