Hello, Would it be too early for my dad to apply for visitor B visa in December/January, if planned trip to USA (if approved) is somewhere around July? Would that be a red flag or something, given that the wait time for Serbia seems to be short (week or so)? Reason i asked him to apply sooner is that i like to plan my holidays in advance and book hotels/tickets asap, so i want to know if he is approved or not. If he gets approved, My husband and I would come to Serbia next year in June, hang out for 2 weeks and all of us go back together and spend another 3 weeks in USA, depending on how much vacation my parents can get from work. My mother has ESTA so she doesn’t have to apply for interview. If he gets denied, we will end up going to Greece instead, and maybe try again in 2025 =).

Yea i was born in Serbia and i put Serbia as cob and even sent them updated birth certificate that states Serbia as i totally forgot about Yugoslavia lol. But yeah i was born in the time of Yugoslavia, country changed name to Serbia and Montenegro and then to Serbia (Republic of Serbia). Thanks for replying, i just feel way better now~when i googled about error on gc i found one old post with same issue (he put serbia as cob, but also got gc with unkown, same as me as he was born in Yugoslavia~, so it’s something about that)

omg thats great news~ you guys know more than uscis ppl. i figured i didn’t need stamp unless they requested my gc back and i sent it away, but first person said i need and second really didn’t question much, just asked for some basic info and case i90 number. thanks 🥲 i literally spent whole night crying.

My conditional greencard arrived (january 26) with an error (country of birth was written as unknown)..So i filled for replacement in february. I was planning on traveling home this september, so back in march i called uscis to schedule infopass app to get the 551 stamp and to ask if i even need the stamp, or if i can travel with my gc and paperwork proof that i filled i90 for replacement and my birth certificate, and agent said that i will need the stamp just that is too soon and to call 1 month before i plan to travel. Yesterday marked 1 month prior to planned travel(bought the tickets and all), and there answers this lady saying that i will be getting email or call within 30 BUSINESS DAYS. I was in shock, thats like 6 weeks from now, way after my travel. She replied that’s the wait time and if i got any other questions..She did ask me about type of travel and date of travel. I did little bit of searching through forum and found one post from2023where person says that they have been waiting 30 days just to get email that there are not available appointments. My GC is not expired, i still have it (they didnt request it yet) and everything is good besides the wrong cob. I’m not even sure anymore if i need the stamp, as the first agent mayb didn’t receive enough of training. i’m really heartbroken i really want to visit home, but i am stuck due to their errors and missinformations. IS there anything i can do? 😔 edit: hope i receive date soon :<
