    If it's only been a week since your I-140 was approved then it's too soon to be expecting the Welcome Letter. See the NVC timelines, currently about 6 weeks for case creation - https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/immigrate/nvc-timeframes.html How long it takes before you get your IL will depend largely on you and how quickly you submit your civil docs etc. Good luck.

    Sounds like you're using the wrong case number - you need to use the receipt number from when the green card fee was paid (will start with IOE). It'll be on the email receipt. Edit: also sounds like you're using CEAC, but you need to use the USCIS case status site - https://egov.uscis.gov Put the receipt number in there and it should tell you what's happening with the GC.

    Now I can see you're UK and spousal visa - you won't get an envelope, and you should have your passport back within a week. I had my interview in London on the Monday afternoon, it turned to issued almost instantly, and passport was back with visa in it by the Thursday so 4 days in total.
  4. appleblossom
    It depends on the visa type. Employment based get an envelope, family based don't as it's done electronically. As for passport return, that will depend on the consulate but usually within a week. If you can fill in your profile then people will be able to see your visa type and consulate when you post.

    Flagged for what? Telling the truth and then leaving the US on time? You didn't do anything wrong. You are seriously overthinking all of this.
  6. appleblossom
    They may well know about it but so what? Again, what you did isn't an issue at all, you didn't do anything wrong.
  7. appleblossom
    Everything you've queried on your threads. Your visa application history, your salary, your funds etc etc - but basically whatever you're asked about. Just apply and go to the interview and be honest if asked about anything, that's it.
  8. appleblossom
    On what? You've been told several times to just apply, and tell the truth. There's nothing else anybody can add to that.
  9. appleblossom
    You can search timelines on the forum, here's the most recent case I can find (approx 5 months to get an interview). https://www.visajourney.com/timeline/profile.php?id=428330 Please fill in your own timeline to help those that come after you, thanks. Good luck.

    A lot of people don't understand that though, so it's a double check. But even if it is current, without knowing your PD we don't know *when* it became current. If it became current a year ago, then you've been in the queue for an interview for a year. If it only become current at the start of May, then your time in the queue has only just started. And we don't know if it's retrogressed since becoming current either. So without that info it's hard to say, but my very vague guess is that you may get an IL next year. Don't worry if your timeline is complicated, just put the pertinent dates in, you can use other EB applicants profiles (i.e. mine) as a guide. Good luck.

    OK, so definitely that will have cleared by now (I don't think the DS-260 would be available to you until they have anyway). But you need to do the DS-260 next, then the civil docs option should 'unlock' for you. Good luck.
  12. appleblossom
    They definitely need civil docs uploaded, but you may well need to do the DS-260 before that becomes available to you, that's the next step. https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/immigrate/the-immigrant-visa-process/step-5-collect-financial-evidence-and-other-supporting-documents/step-6-complete-online-visa-application.html When did you pay the fee?
  13. appleblossom
    I don't know if there is one, I don't recall which it is if so (there is a help button for most fields). But everybody's DQ will take a different amount of time depending on how quickly they submit their docs etc, so it's maybe not so useful for those looking at timelines anyway. If you can complete the other fields that are USCIS/NVC/consulate dependent, those are the most important. Many thanks.

    Please take the time to fill in your timelines - there are so few of us EB applicants around, so we need every one we can get! It's so helpful for others going though the same process, the more data we have the better. Thanks.

    Last paragraph on this page - https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/immigrate/the-immigrant-visa-process/step-1-submit-a-petition/step-2-begin-nvc-processing/helpful-hints-iv-processing.html HTH.

    It can be delayed indefinitely at the NVC stage if needed.

    Ok, so your PD became current this month. So you have only just been added to the queue for an interview. Are you the spouse of a LPR? Or the child of one?
  18. appleblossom
    Unless you have valid reasons for an expedite (https://www.uscis.gov/forms/filing-guidance/expedite-requests) you have to wait your turn just like everybody else. Once she has her immigrant visa, then she'll be able to move to the US and get her green card on arrival. I'd take the advice of everybody on this thread and meet her first, particularly if she's younger than you, to make sure she genuinely loves you and wants to be with you for you, not just for a green card and/or financial benefits. The whole process will cost a fair amount and take quite a long time before she can move to the US, so best to be 100% sure before you start it. Good luck.

    If you are the US citizen then you are the petitioner, and your fiancee is the beneficiary.
  20. appleblossom
    Sounds like they've been to the wrong address, hopefully it's sorted now and will be with you tomorrow. But they just post it through the letterbox, he doesn't have to wait in! Mad as it seems when they're sending a passport and important docs, but no signature is required.
  21. appleblossom
    Ah, ok, I thought you meant it showed as delivered and hadn't been. If it was only ready on Friday, I'd think today would have been the earliest day it would have been delivered given the weekend/holiday, so I'd give it until the end of the week. Good luck.
  22. appleblossom
    Are you saying the tracking says it was delivered on Monday? Or just that it has an estimated delivery date of Monday but still shows as in progress?
  23. appleblossom
    So you are just seeking an exemption for the vaccine requirement, not the whole medical? You'll need to file for a waiver. Form I-601 is what you need, lots of info about it on the relevant section of VJ - https://www.visajourney.com/forums/forum/113-waivers-i-601-and-i-212-and-administrative-processes-221g/ Good luck.
  24. appleblossom
    London's usually pretty quick, but what is your Priority Date and what date were you DQ'ed? Please fill in your timeline.
  25. appleblossom
    Says above they got approved on 11th May 2023 and if you look at their timeline (on their profile, just click on 'timeline' by their posts) you can see they had their interview in January. Are you saying you filed for a spouse over 2 years ago and haven't had your I-130 approved yet? Are you a US citizen or green card holder?
