    Is she a Pakistani citizen only? It may be that they’re only interviewing those with dual citizenships (who can get visas) at the consulate, which is why the backlog (which used to be huge at Islamabad) has reduced so quickly. But even if that is the case, your mother’s case should still be there. Have you submitted an enquiry to NVC? It should have been transferred months ago.

    She won’t get her GC straight away, it takes 6-12 weeks (ish) to arrive after she enters the US on her immigrant visa, so she’ll need insurance before that. I’d suggest you get some quotes for her now, just to give you an idea of price and make sure it’s feasible for her before you submit the I-130. Good luck.

    This could go on for many more months, is there nobody that could have him in their home instead of just visiting occasionally? It would be much better for him, and reassuring for you too.

    He is supposed to have the medical at least a week before the interview, as it can take that long for the consulate to receive the results. So Alberta may be a better choice unless he's happy to wait in Montreal for longer. Full info on the usual website - https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/immigrate/the-immigrant-visa-process/step-10-prepare-for-the-interview.html https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/Supplements/Supplements_by_Post/MTL-Montreal.html Good luck.

    I'd say you're just expecting things too soon. You only became eligible for a visa today, now you'll be added to the line and you'll get the Welcome Letter soon, but it's not usually immediate. Good luck.

    You need to look at the Visa Bulletin - https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/legal/visa-law0/visa-bulletin/2026/visa-bulletin-for-april-2026.html It's released monthly. Currently those who applied under F1 in May 2017 are just now becoming eligible for visas, and those who applied under F3 in Dec 2011 are too. You can't really guess your wait based on that, as it can speed up or slow down in either category, but it'll give you a rough idea at least. If you are asking about divorce to try and skip the F3 line and move to F1, remember that will only work if you do actually want to divorce your spouse. You can't divorce them, get a visa, and then re-marry them. Also bear in mind that Nigerians can't get visas now anyway.

    Any that show you were spending time together, so that would include trips when you travelled alone to see her.

    She may have more chance than most then, make sure you take plenty of evidence of her medical issues and why she can’t have the procedure done in Ghana. And evidence of the cost and how you’ll pay for it. And as @Boiler said, do come back and let us know how it goes. Best of luck.

    Then that's misrepresentation, and a potential problem. Did she also lie on the DS-160? I'd consult a lawyer before filing anything personally.
  29. appleblossom
    When she had the B visa interview, was that before you met, or were you living somewhere else at the time? Or did she lie in that interview?

    I'd adjust your expectations somewhat - most B visas from Ghana are refused, so be prepared for your wife's to be too, and then if it's granted it'll be a nice surprise. Are you a US citizen?
