    @Aanuoluwa, when did you submit your docs? If you could fill in your timeline it would be super helpful.
  2. appleblossom
    No, usually just a few days longer for those that mail their docs. You’re bang on time! https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/immigrate/nvc-timeframes.html

    Congrats!

    Only a proper expedite request will do it, so if you do have a valid reason to jump the queue ahead of everybody else then you can try that. If not then I’m afraid all you can do is wait your turn. As your spouse is from Iran you may have lengthier AP, and no way of expediting that so just be prepared in case that does happen.
  5. appleblossom
    There’s no way to push it unless you qualify for an expedite. You’re just in a queue with everybody else.

    You can add yourself - just copy & paste the table in to a post and add another row for you. HTH. Good luck, hope it’s not too long until your PD becomes current. 🤞🏻
  7. appleblossom
    It’s already linked to in the first post. HTH.

    It’s the applicants nationality I meant, (obviously all petitioners are American - or green card holders - or they wouldn’t be able to sponsor!). If your spouse isn’t Turkish then she may have a longer wait from what I’ve read on VJ. But that thread will give you more info. Good luck.

    The person you’re asking hasn’t been on the forum for nearly 3 years, this is a very old thread. But everybody’s AP will vary depending on the reasons for it and the checks being done. It can take weeks, months or even years. A senator isn’t likely to have any effect, you can sue for a decision if it’s been a long time.

    The siblings being Canadian citizens doesn't make any difference. As said above, once the brother is a US citizen he can sponsor him, but it's a very long wait. I guess all they can do is both try to find employers prepared to sponsor them. I personally think the EB2 NIW is a long shot for a teacher, but it's worth a consult with an immigration attorney.

    OP, what does her husband do? Is he more likely to qualify for a visa?
  12. appleblossom
    Seem to be about 5 months from DQ date so hopefully you'll hear early next year, this thread may help - https://www.visajourney.com/forums/topic/773618-nvc-to-mumbai-consulate-gather-here/page/75/#comments Good luck.
  13. appleblossom
    OK, hopefully not too much longer then. It's about a year from DQ to IL for spousal cases usually (which will take priority over yours I'd imagine) so fingers crossed you hear soon.
  14. appleblossom
    Only one F2A issued last month in Lagos, same in the month before. But when were you actually DQ’ed? You don’t have a timeline set up so I couldn’t see it.
  15. appleblossom
    If both PD’s are current then whoever was DQ’ed first will be scheduled first. So in your example you’d get an interview after the other person, as they were DQ’ed and added to the queue for an interview first. IL’s aren’t given based on PD, I don’t know where you’re getting that from. They are scheduled in order of DQ date, once current the PD isn’t relevant to the rest of the process (unless it retrogresses before visa issuance of course). HTH.
  16. appleblossom
    Maybe just as well you didn’t….it tends to suck you in, I was checking it 10 times a day throughout our whole application. 😂 Congrats on the visa being issued, it’ll tell you when it’s on the way too.
  17. appleblossom
    No need to be worried, it does take longer for those who mail docs, usually about a week extra but don't forget the processing time was much longer recently so you'll have been caught in that.
  18. appleblossom
    Sounds like you're logging in to CEAC rather than just using the status checker page - https://ceac.state.gov/CEACStatTracker/Status.aspx HTH.
  19. appleblossom
    Yes. Your job has no relevance to a spousal application, you could be unemployed, or retired, or a student etc.
  20. appleblossom
    OK. I'm still confused, if you can answer the questions asked by others above that will help.
  21. appleblossom
    Are you asking this on behalf of somebody else? As Boiler said, your post history/timeline is very confusing.
  22. appleblossom
    That sounds odd, surely the only way to pay another visa fee is to reapply for another visa? I can't see how the system would let you pay twice for the same visa application. Could you keep the 8th appointment instead and not reschedule that one, even if you have to move things around to make it? That would be far less hassle in the long run unless you can't attend for a completely immovable reason.
  23. appleblossom
    So you can leave your job, no problem. You can't travel until you have AP, but once you have that you're good to go. Good luck with it.
  24. appleblossom
    How are you applying for a green card? Just checking as you've posted this in the spouse visa section, so your spouse is sponsoring you, it's not an employment based sponsorship?
  25. appleblossom
    Yes, you could have a US credit card or bank account whilst outside the country, but in that case they wouldn’t have local US transactions on the statements. Providing statements that show regular transactions at stores in the US for things like gas, bills, groceries etc are what will show you’re living in the US.
