    The Informed Delivery website. Every day you get an email telling you what mail is on the way, for packages or anything sent tracked it has the tracking number there too and you can follow it on it's way to you. But for the USCIS tracking for the GC, it's also on the USCIS online account. It says 'mailed on xxxx date' and then has the tracking number as well. So if one doesn't have Informed Delivery, they can track it anyway using that number and the USPS website. https://www.uscis.gov/forms/filing-guidance/how-to-track-delivery-of-your-notice-or-secure-identity-document-or-card

    Tracking number on the online account, but you don't need it for Informed Delivery, it shows it once it's in the system anyway.

    Up to 90 days. Ours took about 6 weeks last year. You check the status using the receipt number from when you paid the green card fee - it will tell you when the card has been sent for production, when it's been printed, and give you the tracking number once it's sent.

    She doesn't get an email, she has to follow the links here and pay it herself. I'm not sure how she submitted the DS-160 without having paid the fee! https://www.ustraveldocs.com/ph/ph-niv-paymentinfo.asp

    OK, so if he's 30 then it's not such an issue. At the moment adult children of LPR's is slightly quicker than adult children of USC's, but it's probably at least a decade before he will be eligible for a visa whichever category he's in, so I'd wait and see what's happening with each nearer the time. She might want to hold off applying for citizenship just in case - but he needs to not get married! Good luck.

    Do check that it makes sense for her to get citizenship, often it's the worst thing a LPR can do when petitioning for a family member. It will depend on your age and marital status, but just thought I'd flag it as sometime people aren't aware of the consequences. Good luck.

    Who is 'they'? I'm a GC holder and nobody is asking for my vote, in fact if I even thought about it there are warnings everywhere saying that I can't vote and it's illegal. Any GC holders that do vote only do it due to their own negligence and ignorance.

    Ditto, I have a spreadsheet for all 4 family members with days inside and outside of the country, and dates plus reasons for each trip - because there's no way I'd remember it all or want the hassle of searching for records when/if the time comes to apply for naturalisation!

    All of ours were printed that way last year. It’s perfectly normal.

    If you’re asking about your friends F2B case, then see your previous thread - If you’re asking about a different case then it will depend on the Priority Date, country and type of case, so you need to give that info before anybody can give you an estimate.
  11. appleblossom
    How old are you and your brother? And what’s the Priority Date?
  12. appleblossom
    It would depend on the type of case and the priority date.

    That’s not an official website, it’s a Google AI search result. This is the official info on the interview waiver criteria - https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/News/visas-news/important-update-on-waivers-of-the-interview-requirement-for-certaing-nonimmigrant-visa-applicants.html That’s an amazing deal! What kind of medical coverage does it offer?
  14. appleblossom
    As said above by @OldUser, more info is needed to help you - namely your son’s age and what the Priority Date of the petition is.

    As said above, best thing would be to get your citizenship then apply. If you apply as a green card holder (when you are eligible) then it will take many years longer than if you petitioned them as a citizen. How much time have you actually spent in the US since you became a permanent resident?
  16. appleblossom
    The OP does. S/he is seeking to waive the inadmissibility - so the inadmissibility must be determined first. https://www.uscis.gov/sites/default/files/document/charts/i-601chart.pdf If they’ve only just filed then best thing to do is wait and see what requirements are in place by the time they are due to be scheduled for an interview - as @Boiler said, probably back end of 2025. Then they can make a decision about what to do.
  17. appleblossom
    You don’t need to have them all at once.
  18. appleblossom
    I’d look into DCF - sounds like you would be eligible if you get the job offer, and it would be a heck of a lot quicker than a ‘normal’ spouse visa application.
  19. appleblossom
    Why? You don’t need to have photos taken at the same place. You can each take them on a phone using a passport photo app and then print them out. Can be done in a day or two if really needed.

    Which is only good for visiting. As above, you should apply for K-1 for your fiancée - her kids will be K-2’s. There’s a guide at the top of the page which will help with the whole process. Good luck.
  21. appleblossom
    Who is ‘her’? You wife? Your fiancée? Your sister? Your mother? How old are the kids? She does need a visa to live in the US, whoever she is. How long does she usually visit the US for and does she have a job?
  22. appleblossom
    You know it's been received from your delivery tracking, you're not likely to get anything else to confirm receipt just yet, it's too early if you only sent it a couple of weeks ago. Good luck.
  23. appleblossom
    See all the answers above - adjustment of status isn't an option if your MIL isn't currently in the US. You can't have her visit in December and then apply for AOS, that's immigration fraud. Just apply now via consular processing (just the I-130 to be filed). Good luck.
  24. appleblossom
    Sorry, not sure what ‘po’ or ‘ko’ stand for? But if your PD is June 2024, then you can’t adjust status yet anyway as your PD isn’t current. So you may well be able to apply for your waiver before being able to apply to adjust status. Unfortunately your daughter may age out by the time your PD is current but all you can do is keep an eye on the VB and submit as soon as possible. Good luck.

    It doesn't mean anything other than that you're in AP - refused is different from denied.
