    Sound like it may just be too early, so nothing to do but wait. You can search the forums to see if you can schedule your own interview before hearing from the consulate, or if you do need to wait. Good luck.

    No. If you’ve aged out then there is no visa available to you. If you still want to move you’ll have to wait for your parent(s) to get their green card and then petition for you.
  3. appleblossom
    I doubt that long, but certainly longer than 2 days. They probably haven't even seen it yet, it'll be waiting for somebody to look at it, I'd give it a month before chasing it up.

    You say you've called, sent emails and written letters but who to? https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/immigrate/national-visa-center/immigrant-visas-processing-general-faqs.html#ivp6

    The 1st Feb was only two working days ago, you need to give it a lot longer before worrying.

    I'd suggest you ask for this to be moved to the India sub forum. Posting it in the section for green card holders sponsoring family (presumably you're a citizen, not a LPR?) probably isn't going to get it seen by the right people. Also, for future ref, if you use the 'quote' function then whoever you're responding to will get a notification of your post. HTH.

    It's because he indicated both on the form, so they've given both options. But as above, if she's outside of the US, the only possible option is consular processing, so the I-824 needs filing asap.
  8. appleblossom
    As said by others above, if they're outside the US, then I-485 is NOT an option. That would be immigration fraud. As for why it would add time, it's because it's unfortunately added an unnecessary step to the process. How long it takes will depend on which service centre it's sent to - https://egov.uscis.gov/processing-times/

    I gave you a link to a relevant thread above - as said on my previous response it seems to be about 5-6 months from DQ to IL so hopefully you'll hear something in the summer. But just asking again, is your PD correct, 13-14 years ago?? Or was that a typo?
  10. appleblossom
    That's something to take up with your courier company, if you sent it via a priority service and it took a week you should be entitled to a refund.
  11. appleblossom
    Assuming the friend's spouse is outside the US then he needs to complete I-824 as said above. Unfortunately this will add quite a bit of time to the process.
  12. appleblossom
    Certainly not yet if she was only DQ'ed a week ago. It won't be transferred until she's due for an interview, so a while to go yet.
  13. appleblossom
    I'm sorry to hear it's been so tough for you. Worth noting though, that the 14 months quoted by USCIS is only for the I-130 part of the process, not the whole thing. I think filing WOM only a couple of months after interview may be premature and be an easy reason for it to be dismissed unfortunately, but I wish you the best of luck and hope you get an answer soon.

    Me? Unusually for EB1 I did, I was transferred on an expat assignment with my current company. It wasn't relevant to my immigrant visa process though, as EB1 doesn't require a job offer and we provided no evidence of it.
  15. appleblossom
    OK, so not a K1 then, this has been posted in the wrong section. Please just provide more info if you want help, we'll all try and help you but it's hard when we don't know what you're applying for, what your husband's status is, what the dates are etc. Sounds like your husband isn't eligible to adjust status? Are you a green card holder and what is your Priority Date?
  16. appleblossom
    27/07/23 - the EB1/EB2 thread has a table of dates in for all of the people who've participated in it so always worth checking there (or on people's timelines). Although with the usual caveat of timelines can vary hugely, so don't assume yours will be the same! https://www.visajourney.com/forums/topic/798397-only-eb1eb2-update-on-nvc-dq-il/?do=findComment&comment=10945692 HTH.

    Might be worth having another read of your previous thread about another close relative who’d applied for a F1. As explained in that, it’s more to do with being Russian that anything else, so yes, the risk of AP is high. What relative to you is this?
  18. appleblossom
    Which consulate?
  19. appleblossom
    You may get approval in Feb, but as per the link above current average processing times are 14 months. So I’d assume May and then be pleasantly surprised if it’s any earlier. Good luck.
  20. appleblossom
    Yes. You’ll need both - 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

    Same has happened to me repeatedly in the past week, on both laptop and mobile, and both Safari and Chrome. Got to say, the message about 'should you really be here, your IP has been recorded' is a bit threatening! Made me feel really guilty to start with, even though I knew I'd done nothing wrong. 😂

    Myself, spouse and two teenage children had medicals in London last year, they never even asked us about it. They just ticked the 'Varicella History' box and that was it.
  23. appleblossom
    More info is needed to help you. What visa, which country, how long ago were you refused, what was the reason given, what ties do you gave to your home country (job etc), do you have any family in the US? Etc.
  24. appleblossom
    Definitely not in your junk/spam? You should have had it ages ago (https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/immigrate/nvc-timeframes.html) so do chase it up if not received.
