    Ah, I didn't realise they'd only just arrived. You can track the green card by putting the receipt number from when they paid the GC fee in to here - https://egov.uscis.gov But as @milimelo has said, their endorsed visas act as temporary green cards for a year anyway so they don't need the physical card yet. They should file I-130's for the children asap, there's a chance the older one will age out in to F2B category which will add many more years on to his/her wait. Good luck.

    It's exactly the same process as when you filed for them. https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/immigrate/the-immigrant-visa-process/step-1-submit-a-petition.html But will just take much longer as they're green card holders and so the children aren't immediate relatives of citizens. When can your parents apply for citizenship?

    Afraid I have no idea, I don't understand why you were interviewed in November tbh. Normally any DV applications that haven't had a visa issued by 30th September are dead in the water.

    The election is over now - naturalisation applications are no longer a priority. One month was super quick even with cases being sped up, but you can check processing times here to give you an idea of how long it's likely to take now. https://egov.uscis.gov/processing-times/ Good luck.

    Yes, you need to leave section 1 empty if you're filing a motion rather than an appeal. And presumably should have been 2C rather than 2B? But hard to know for sure without knowing details, I'm not sure what you're filing for. Good luck.

    Normal timeline is up to 90 days, there's no way to expedite it but no need to either, their stamped visas act as green cards for a year anyway, as said above. When did your parents actually enter the US?
  7. appleblossom
    The date you received your green card isn't relevant. As you were advised back in 2019 it's the marriage length at the date of entry (i.e. the day you become a LPR) that matters. Lots of people delay their entries in to the US for that very reason. You needed to submit a I-90 and then remove conditions. As suggested by others, I'd get it sorted asap before your naturalisation interview. Good luck.

    P.S. For the immigrant classification, here is the list. I'm not sure what you're filing for but hopefully it helps if you do refile the I-290B. https://ohss.dhs.gov/topics/immigration/lawful-permanent-residents/immigrant-classes-admission

    No, 2C is for a motion to reopen and a motion to reconsider, not for a motion and an appeal. Section 1 is for appeals, section 2 is for motions, you've selected one from each so they don't know what you're asking for - and as the instructions say, will result in a rejection. I'm really sorry but this isn't USCIS's error from what you've said. Don't give up, it's absolutely fixable but I agree with the above, I think I'd get a lawyer to check it all over and see if filing another correct I-290B is the right thing to do, or if there was an error with your first filing so you need to resubmit that instead. Best of luck.

    That's why it's been rejected. You should have filled out either 1 (for an appeal) or 2 (for a motion), not both. As it says at the top of that section: "Please indicate whether you are filing an appeal to the Administrative Appeals Office (AAO) or a motion. You cannot file both an appeal and a motion on a single form. If you select both an appeal and a motion, we may dismiss or reject your filing."
  11. appleblossom
    No, Part 2 - which is the ‘Information About The Appeal or Motion’ section they have said is incomplete. As above, if you can provide a redacted version then people can help work out where the error is.
  12. appleblossom
    There is, I think they mean Part 2. Which boxes did you complete in that section?
  13. appleblossom
    Seems you were issued a 10 year GC in error then. Not sure why the lawyer thinks that isn't an issue?
  14. appleblossom
    7 months. https://egov.uscis.gov/processing-times/ I don't think there's any way to look it up, do you have a copy or scan of it?
  15. appleblossom
    What do you mean he was 'on F2A category'? You mean that was how he got his green card? But you married after he got it? How long had you been married for when you got your green card?

    They shouldn't have any issues in Delhi, the airline just need to check they have valid documents to travel to the US, which they do. It's the other end where they'll probably be questioned. Have they been filing US tax returns each year? Make sure they take evidence of that if so, and proof of any ties to the US i.e. if they've maintained an address there etc.
  17. appleblossom
    AP can't be expedited in any way unfortunately, even by a congressman.
  18. appleblossom
    Your first post in this thread says 'my question is if I can apply for a non-immigrant visa to go see her at least or in the best case scenario get an immigrant visa based on our valid marriage'. So you raised the question about an immigrant visa, people are only responding to the info you've given.
  19. appleblossom
    Perfectly normal. It’s just a case of waiting it out whilst the background checks are conducted. Good luck.
  20. appleblossom
    No need to buy a condo to prove domicile - and definitely not recommended until the visa is in hand! Have a look around the forum to see how others have done it without owning property. Good luck.

    Not that I’m aware of, but it’s the same process for all countries with the only variation being the wait time for the final (interview) stage, so feel free to ask any questions and one of us EB1A’ers will try and help. I got mine last year. Good luck with it.

    Actually, I've just realised - if you're on a skilled worker visa in the UK and resign from your job, then your visa will be cancelled. So where are you planning on going to after your trip to the US? Do note that it's immigration fraud if your plan is to try and marry your boyfriend and stay in the US.
  23. appleblossom
    Is this for a B visa application rather than the VWP? What is your home country? If you don't have strong ties to the UK and you have a US based boyfriend, there's a good chance your B visa will be refused.

    The checklist does say original or certified copy. https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/Supplements/Supplements_by_Post/LND-London.html#pre_interview_checklist
  25. appleblossom
    Yes, as above, that's what I did. 1hr 45mins each way in to London, very common where I lived. Most people who work in London can't afford to live there! But if you want to live apart then make sure it's only during the week (go home every weekend) and make sure you have LOTS of proof of a genuine relationship and co-mingling all of your affairs. Joint bank account, health insurance, taxes, wills, insurances, shared vacations, phone calls, etc, etc. You should also keep evidence of your job hunt in the town where you wife lives, to show you couldn't find any work there. Good luck.
