  1. You may want to try writing to your state senator, house representative, or even the Secretary of State and explain all the delays. Lawyers don’t want to sue USCIS or DoS for family based categories.
  2. Rationalizing as in “Stop taking new applications until all existing applications are processed and visa issued”?
  3. Thanks for pouring cold water! In FY 2020, priority dates moved by 13 months 7 days.
  4. https://travel.state.gov/content/dam/visas/Statistics/Immigrant-Statistics/MonthlyIVIssuances/SEPTEMBER 2024 - IV Issuances by FSC or Place of Birth and Visa Class.pdf Fiscal year 2024 ended with total F2B issued:- 26.3k which is right on target. What is NOT on target is the movement of Priority dates. 7 months 10 days in a one year period? So let’s say if my PD is 3 years away I actually have to wait 3x (12/7.33)= 5 years? I hope Mr. Openheim will be able to help out here…
  5. Finger pointing has already started, in case State Department fails to reach 226k visas for family categories!! But realistically, I think they are taking about adjustment of status data not being provided by USCIS, for different categories.
  6. It shows how immigration lawyers treat their clients as ignorant followers of instructions. New fiscal year has already started with a bang ‼️ complete and absolute zero movement.
  7. Last year F2A moved in September. Do you think NVC will be able to reach the target of total number for each family category this year?
  8. Is it because we’re so used to seeing no movement that any movement will be unusual? For the record not a single family category moved.
  9. Following up: did the visa office really listen to the advice above regarding F2B? They needed to issue 2,800 F2B visas monthly. May: 1,554, June: 2,824. Catching up but slowly. July - September they have to issue 3,300 F2B’s per month. To do that PD need to move quickly. The other interesting part is, of course, Dominican Republic. May to June F2B increased by 1,270. May to June F2B for DR increased by 1,212 (349 jump to 1,561 for DR). Fair to say all the increased visas went to one country.
  10. F2B moved up by 30 days last month: while it was a good news, DoS need to do better than that going forward. They are behind by 3,000 F2B visas to meet this year’s quota.
  11. Good for you! Back in June, 2017, if you could show your work skills in your application, and if your skills allowed your application to be placed in a some sort of expedited category, would it have been better for you? Skilled people have higher chances of getting a job in the USA, and if they are being sponsored by their parents so they don’t have to depend on their employers, isn’t that a good idea…
  12. There’s a general feeling that people coming to the US on family reunification visas (e.g. F2B) are those lucky vagabonds, with no educational qualifications or practical skills/useful work experience. Basically bottom feeders. Because there’s no such requirements for those visas. But are they all useless people?
