    You need to chase it up then, published processing times for your office are 8 months so you’re well outside of that. https://egov.uscis.gov/e-request/displayONPTForm.do?entryPoint=init&sroPageType=onpt Good luck.

    Ah, ok so it doesn’t sound as though you’ve paid the GC fees. Once you’ve paid them, then the GC’s should be with you within 90 days, but you can track it using the receipt number (starting with IOE). They’re usually delivered within about 6 weeks. Good luck.
  3. appleblossom
    I understand that, but it doesn’t make any difference. The GC fee can only be paid online after the visa is received - see the link above. It’s $235, so check to see if you’ve paid it but if not then follow the payment link to do so.

    What fees did she pay? She wouldn’t have paid the GC fee at the consulate, it’s paid online after you receive the visa. https://www.uscis.gov/forms/filing-fees/uscis-immigrant-fee

    She can fly however she likes. If there is pre-clearance immigration (i.e. she was changing planes in Dublin) then make sure you allow longer for her to go through the process there, otherwise she’ll go through it when she arrives in the US. Please complete your VJ timeline to pay it forward and help others that follow on, thanks.

    Don’t forget that your consulate also has US holidays - so they’ll have been closed on 9th Jan for example. Not sure what Xmas/NY holidays you get in Oz, but for my consulate it’s only been 12 business days since the 20th Dec.

    I’ve not seen any that quick, are those Singapore specific? I just skimmed a couple of recent posts and they were about a week before hearing back so hopefully it won’t be too much longer for you. Good luck.

    You’ve not answered a couple of the questions, it’s really hard to help you without full details. Where were you born and what does your case status say? If you were born in the UK then your PD wasn’t current until 1st January, so no visa was available to you until then and it hasn’t been anywhere near 60 days. Please fill in your timeline on your profile, thx.
  9. appleblossom
    Remember that 9th was a holiday, so it’s really only been 3 working days since you sent everything. I’d just give it more time.

    There’s an official step by step guide here - https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/immigrate/the-immigrant-visa-process/step-1-submit-a-petition.html Also, there’s a great resource on this forum, check the Guides section at the top of this page. Good luck.

    As you say, it’s only been one working day since your interview. I’m sure it will change this week though, good luck.

    1. As said above your receipt number is from the fee, not your case. 2. This is the website you need to use - https://egov.uscis.gov/. Not sure if you saw my response on your previous thread? 3. If there is a delay (after 90 days of entry, or paying the fee, whichever came later) then you complete this form - https://egov.uscis.gov/e-request/displayNDCForm.do?sroPageType=ndc&entryPoint=init

    Ah, ok, so it’s just your petition that’s been approved, not your visa? Police cert validity is set out on the usual website - https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/immigrate/the-immigrant-visa-process/step-5-collect-financial-evidence-and-other-supporting-documents/step-7-collect-civil-documents.html Scroll to the bottom of the page.

    As @Crazy Cat said, we need more info to help you. You don’t normally schedule your own immigrant visa, it’s done for you, but if you can advise on the type of case etc, somebody can help.
  15. appleblossom
    Since your visa approval? If you’ve already been issued a visa then you don’t need any police certs.
  16. appleblossom
    What does your case status say?
  17. appleblossom
    Country says Ghana but consulate is Armenia, is that right?
  18. appleblossom
    Just checking, you are a USC? Not a LPR? Have either of your I-130’s been approved, or both of them still waiting?
  19. appleblossom
    It would depend on the answer to my question above which you’ve not answered. How did she enter the US, presumably as normal on her B2 i.e. through an airport POE? How long has she overstayed? Should mean she’ll be fine once it’s filed, but don’t wait any longer, get it filed urgently - with the incoming new administration next week, you really don’t want her to be in the US illegally.
  20. appleblossom
    It will depend on how long she’s lived in Germany, but you can check it yourself on the usual website, just jump ahead to step 7 - https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/immigrate/the-immigrant-visa-process/step-5-collect-financial-evidence-and-other-supporting-documents/step-7-collect-civil-documents.html Also check the country specific guidelines to see exactly what police certs will be required and how to obtain them - https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/Visa-Reciprocity-and-Civil-Documents-by-Country.html/ Good luck.
  21. appleblossom
    How did she enter the US and how long has she overstayed? Should be fine for you to petition her but just checking. Please don’t type all in caps, it’s considered ‘shouting’, thanks.
  22. appleblossom
    What’s her current status? You should be able to file concurrently.
  23. appleblossom
    As said above, that’s for the whole process. But it does depend on who you’re sponsoring and which consulate they’ll be applying at, it can take much longer depending on those things. If you can fill in your timeline then you’ll get a more accurate idea.
  24. appleblossom
    Afraid I don’t know, you’ll have to search and see if you can find relevant threads/timelines, but I’d imagine it will be quicker in SA so if you’re currently resident there it may be worth requesting a transfer. Good luck.

    The interview scheduling process hasn’t changed, just wait times are longer after Covid and the backlogs. It’s very odd that it’s taken 4 years to get to this point, if he’s an immediate relative it shouldn’t have been anywhere near that long. Just checking, but you petitioned him as a US citizen, not a green card holder? Not sure if there is a thread about DQ to IL timings for Kigali but you can check, it’s also worth searching timelines as well. Best of luck.
