    No, it’s just administrative, the portal unlocks the DS260 and applicant has to review, update as required, sign off and submit. The file is at the embassy already so it doesn’t “start over.”

    Your application expires after one year. You will be asked to resubmit your DS260 when you clear.

    Iranian 221g takes at least 6 months in the best cases, often a year or more. Embassies with jurisdiction over Iranian applicants are explicit about this.

    You mean the defendants motioned or that the judge ruled?

    What’s the connection with your passport and staying at airbnb? Go home

    Maybe let’s not call it an “issue” 😅

    I’ve actually come across info that for IV the CO is likely seeing your info for the first time at the time of the interview.

    To torture us obviously

    Choice of venue isn’t so simple - many going through consular processing must file in DC as they have no ties to another state. If you file in a state you lack ties to, your case may be transferred (added delays) or at worst dismissed. This is the reason DC in particular is busy - because it’s the appropriate venue for DOS suits. Maryland is also busy because it’s where USCIS is HQ’d - but only a specific set of plaintiffs can file there - likely not any Montreal peeps as they need to sue DOS, not USCIS, unless they have existing ties to Maryland.

    Case last updated changes are not useful - it happens when your file is checked. Could be progress, could be routine admin stuff, could be an email inquiry. This is the way

    One country this is common for is Somalia - and is the norm for anyone with documents from there.

    This is not viable.

    CEAC had major system updates recently.

    I know plenty of people with successful WOM recently. Choose a good lawyer is my advice.

    It’s for everyone. A derivative can’t be issued without the principal anyway. They’re under no obligation to issue before the deadline but they usually make a good faith effort. This year is crazy though as the visa numbers are depleted.

    You’re in 221g.

    Yes, future filings through DOS are more likely to trigger another DS5535, but if you are coming on a K1 you don’t usually go through DOS again. Your adjustment later would be with USCIS, who don’t use that form.

    They can file for extensions, and sometimes they do. Also if you look at DV stats, you can glean a lot of information about 221g at Montreal. The DV sites are a goldmine for this kind of data.

    The new PCC definitely don’t have fingerprints and photos shown. It has to be run under the Privacy Act. RCMP is no good for this. Go to another Commissionaires, preferably in a big city - they know exactly what you need.

    This suit was dismissed because the claim became moot - the plaintiff’s visa was adjudicated. The other plaintiff in the suit can’t compel interview - it’s a different claim from the government’s duty to adjudicate an application, and extremely difficult to win on as there are too many factors involved.

    If a case is refused, it would have been refused anyway, with or without the WoM. The notion that a WoM will force a refusal because they can’t finish their checks is nonsense.

    Unfortunately, an oral approval at interview must be taken with a grain of salt. It’s common for a CO to recommend approval but the case is later sent into 221g when reviewed by a supervisor. CEAC status is your best reference - a visa will not be printed on a passport without the CEAC status changing to “Issued”
  23. throwitaway
    You’re misunderstanding - KCC doesn’t want any documents from you and that “documents” email is unmonitored.

    What’s the CN?

    DV2022 is over, Sept 30 2022 was the last day. DS-260 was submitted way too late.
