    Field offices aren’t relevant to you - it’s SCOPS you need to select.

    Off topic completely, but you can blame the Portuguese for that, not Brits! Ditto Bombay. Both anglicized versions of names the cities were given by Portuguese traders. https://amp.scmp.com/magazines/post-magazine/article/3103607/why-new-york-mumbai-and-guangzhou-were-once-known-other

    Dependent of the petitioner? Or dependent of a beneficiary? Is your parent being petitioned (i.e. by a USC spouse)? Or are you being petitioned by a USC parent? I assumed the former as you’ve put this in the spousal visa forum but please clarify. If you are the dependent of another beneficiary then which consulate have they been given for their interview? When is the interview? If you’ve given proof of your residency in Malaysia then it’s just a case of waiting for NVC to get back to you. How did you contact them?

    Not sure what case tracker you're referring to, but no that's not correct. Maybe 2 years in total (for the whole process) as a rough guess. Good luck.

    IR-2, so are you the dependent on a spousal visa application? If the parent that you're the dependent of is also in Malaysia, which consulate have they been given?
  9. appleblossom
    USCIS don’t expect you to have any of that when you’re living apart and doing consular processing. What they do expect is evidence of time spent together, so that’s what you need to focus on - boarding passes, travel bookings, photos etc. Photos of her with your family maybe (and vice versa if you’ve met them)? You’ll be a few years off an interview so keep gathering that too ready to show more recent time together at interview. Which country is she from and when will her studies end?

    (a) I wouldn't personally, I've not been through it myself, but seemingly it's the easiest thing to do yourself so unless you have complicated circumstances I can't see why you would. (b) Why? How are they relevant to you? (c) Why do you think it is? It's telling you you're not eligible *now*, which is correct. (e) potentially but it'll just be some extra checks (which may mean there's a bit of a delay, not sure I'd call it 'abnormal' though personally) Good luck.

    Might be worth having another read of the answers given in previous threads? The timeline has increased since you last asked though as the wait for an interview at Santo Domingo is now ~19 months. So I’d now estimate 2.5-3 years overall but of course that may change between now and your Mom getting to the interview letter stage, just check it once the I-130 is approved to see what the wait is then - https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/visa-information-resources/iv-wait-times.html Good luck.

    What kind of application, what Priority Date, and which country?

    You can search timelines on the forum at the top of the page - please fill yours in too to add to the body of knowledge on VJ (on your profile) once you’ve started. You’ve also got the wrong visa type of your profile so might want to correct that. Once you’ve done that and added your initial timeline in, I believe you get an estimate from the forum as to when your I-129f might be approved. https://www.visajourney.com/timeline/k1list.php?op1=3&op2=&op3=1&op4=1&op5=&op6=All Figure about a year as a (very) rough guide assuming no complicating factors. Good luck.

    Good, there’s definitely a visa available to you then. You can request an expedite following the instructions on the usual website - https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/immigrate/national-visa-center/immigrant-visas-processing-general-faqs.html#:~:text=To request a review for,or death medical emergency exists And contact Montreal too with the same documents, using the email here - https://ca.usembassy.gov/immigrant-visa-process/ Despite what it says, they do offer them for job related reasons too but the company will need to prove that any delay in you starting would cause them severe financial loss. So they’ll need to make a strong case for why they can’t wait another ~8 months ish for you to get a visa and why you should be allowed to jump the line. Good luck and thanks in advance for you completing your timeline.
  25. appleblossom
    No interview for the I-130, usually just one interview for the visa application.
  26. appleblossom
    They won’t keep it as nobody has any idea when the ban will end. So he’ll be refused for now pending that and then will be asked to send his passport in when a visa does become available to him. Good luck.

    You mean from petition approval to interview date? The visa isn't approved until after the interview. Not sure what an IVP process is? But yes, you can request an expedite - you'll need the company that wants to hire you to make a strong case for it. Which country were you born in and what's your PD? Have you been DQ'ed? Please do fill in your timeline - as well as helping other EB applicants and adding to the body of knowledge on the forum, it also means we can help you better as we then have all the info needed rather than having to ask all of these questions.
