    No guaranteed timeframe, unfortunately. Just have to wait until CEAC case status turns to "Issued". Typically takes around 2 weeks, assuming zero issues with background checks and other admin processing.

    At the visa interview, no problem with previous long stays in the US, as long as it is not overstay. Make sure to check I-94 online. Canadians are not guaranteed 6 months stay. CBP always has discretion. Sometimes CBP gives less than 6 months duration on the I-94, if they suspect you might violate the terms of your B2 status but not enough to deny you entry.

    Your thread title says birth certificate, but your post talks about marriage certificate. Anyway, the Colombian civil documents acceptable for US immigration are detailed here -- https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/Visa-Reciprocity-and-Civil-Documents-by-Country/Colombia.html "Summarized marriage certificates are not acceptable. The embassy requires the "copia del folio" since it is a copy of the book itself and has all the information needed to verify applicant's relationship to petitioner and helps to detect possible fraud."

    No action required from you. The consulate staff will see from your marriage certificate that your 2nd wedding anniversary has passed, and issue IR1 visa. In the off chance that they make a mistake and issue a CR1 visa instead, you will still be entitled to a 10-year green card after entering the US with your spouse visa.

    You cannot have a visa interview inside the US, as only US consulates conduct visa interviews. Filing I-485 is the only way you can interview for a green card (not a visa) inside the US.

    That would be F2B. Until your PD becomes current, you may not file I-485 in the US, nor will you be scheduled for visa interview in Poland or any other US consulate.

    Sputum test result will be negative if the applicant has NO active TB. In that case, the applicant will clear the medical. Latent TB only is not a hindrance to US immigration.

    *** Moved from US Embassy/Consulate Discussion to the RUB regional forum, to be among other threads about options for beneficiaries of the U4U program *** What is your visa case category? F2A or F2B? If F2B, what is your case Priority Date (PD)? If your case is F2A, then you may be able to file I-485 to adjust status in the US now. U4U parolee may file I-485, assuming a visa number is immediately available. You may need to check your I-94 status, though. If your case is F2B, it depends on your case PD. As for getting a GC through your sister, that is not an option for you in the near future. F4 (sibling of USC) cases take 15+ years, counting from petition filing date.

    Exactly what it says. Your father's visa case will be canceled. Did you not contact the embassy at all within the past year to keep your father's case active?

    Assuming your case is at NVC, send your expedite request to NVCExpedite@state.gov, or send it via the public inquiry form -- https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/visa-information-resources/ask-nvc.html

    From https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/Visa-Reciprocity-and-Civil-Documents-by-Country/Peru.html -- "[...] for immigrant visa processing, the Consular Section in Lima requires 1) Certificado de Antecedentes Policiales, 2) Certificado Judicial de Antecedentes Penales, and 3) Certificado de Antecedentes Judiciales a Nivel Nacional."

    No, you don't. US immigration agencies have access to US government databases, so they'll do your US background check themselves. "Present and former residents of the United States do NOT need to submit any U.S. police certificates." -- from https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/immigrate/the-immigrant-visa-process/step-5-collect-financial-evidence-and-other-supporting-documents/step-7-collect-civil-documents.html

    When/where was it required? Did the consul officer tell you to provide it after the interview? Did you get a 221g letter and/or DS-5535 questions?

    As mentioned above, download the official I-130A form and fill it out. Then upload the completed I-130A PDF file under the additional evidence section of the I-130 web form in your USCIS account, not your spouse beneficiary's account. Same section where you upload the bona fide relationship evidence.

    *** Moved from IR1/CR1 Progress Reports to IR1/CR1 Process & Procedures *** No -- your spouse beneficiary's birth certificate and passport copy are not required with the I-130 petition. They will be required at NVC stage after the petition has been approved.

    Who is the beneficiary? Your spouse? Child? Parent?
