  1.    Dxstat reacted to a post in a topic: EB1A interview wait time in London, UK

    Yep, a couple of others. I believe that @Dxstat only became current at the start of the month, so their DQ date being from 2024 isn't as relevant as it would be for you as an EB1 that's been current since being DQ'ed. IL's are usually only sent on one day (although not all at the same time), so anybody that doesn't get an IL today would usually have to wait until next month. But as I've mentioned before, they do sometimes chuck in an extra set of IL's on another day just to confuse us all! So we can't assume that will be the case.

    Just FYI, the person you've asked hasn't been on the forum for several months, not sure they're still active on here.
  4. appleblossom
    Oh, yes that could well be it.
  5. appleblossom
    Yep, perfectly normal. Refused is another way of saying Admin Processing, so sounds like they're doing more checks.

    Refused isn't the same as denied. Just sounds like they're doing more checks. Nothing has changed, it's just a case of waiting.

    It's nothing to worry about. If it said issued then that means the visa has been printed, are you collecting your passport or is it being couriered back to you?

    Training and then not signing up doesn’t sound like foreign service to me? You were never on active service from what you’ve said. So I’m not sure a boot camp would meet that definition anyway but what does your lawyer say?
  16. appleblossom
    I’m guessing he ticked no on the ‘have you ever been arrested’ question on ESTA.

    Once filed she's protected, but she's now out of status and subject to deportation. So you need to get it filed urgently, particularly with the current administration. And I would suggest she just stays home and under the radar until you've done that. Best of luck.

    You can ask for an expedite for the petition, but it would serve no purpose. Even if granted, there is no visa available by law until the PD becomes current so no way of getting her there any sooner or saving any time.

    So you have two different divorce certs with different dates on for the same marriage? I don't know how divorce works in Pakistan but I can see why they want to verify things, if they think he was not yet divorced when he married you, it would mean there would be no basis for him to petition you.
  29. appleblossom
    OK, so looking at the country specific guideline it says "For immigration purposes, a Muslim divorce in Pakistan is only considered valid upon the completion of a 90-day period after the notice of divorce is delivered to the Union Council. The Divorce Registration Certificate will indicate if the divorce was a Talaq (initiated by the husband) or Khula (initiated by the wife). " So what does the DRC say, does that say Talaq?

    As @OldUser said, why? Processing times are far longer than 120 days, you can check them here - https://egov.uscis.gov/processing-times/ F-1 isn't a dual intent visa, so you'd need to prove you have no immigrant intent to get it, obviously that's not going to happen with a pending AoS case. As asked above, who has petitioned you?
  34. appleblossom
    You submit what they've asked for and then wait. It sounds like they have doubts that you are your daughter's father, hopefully the evidence you provide will overcome that but if not you may be asked to take a DNA test. Good luck.

    It's amazing to me that siblings can get visas (can't think of any other country that offers that), never mind their kids as well! 😂
