    I think I’d take your lawyers advice on this, they’ll know far better than us what your job entails. One can be a ‘functional manager’ and not manage a single person but still qualify for L1A. Best of luck.

    What is your home country? And whereabouts in Canada are you? Vancouver is only 48 days for a C1/D interview.
  3. appleblossom
    OK so in which case I wouldn’t worry at all. If often takes a while and you’ve had several holidays between mailing and now to slow things down as well. Just check that payment has been taken though. Please do fill in your timeline on your profile. Good luck.

    As said above, more info is needed - specifically whether this is your wife’s son as well. But do consider medical issues as well. I’m not sure if your son has any ongoing healthcare needs, but if so it’s not the place to move to without seriously good insurance. Assuming your wife is happy to continue with the sponsorship (if not, there will be no visa), then she should make sure your son can be added as a dependent on her health insurance before you move.

    Right, so the Priority Date for the F2A case is current now - you said above the PD was Nov 2024, hence the confusion. So just wait for an interview for your husband’s case IMO, there’s no point in paying a second set of fees when there are visas available to them now and they are already in the line for an interview.

    What status are you adjusting from? Do you know the I-485/I-765 was definitely received, does tracking show that? And has the payment been taken?
  7. appleblossom
    Far too early for one, it’s not even been a full working day yet. Note that Monday is a holiday too so they won’t reopen until Tuesday.

    No offer letter is required for EB1A. What proof of residency did you submit when you asked for the transfer? And who did you ask and when (was it before or after you received your IL)?
  9. appleblossom
    Oh, also you’ve posted this in the adjustment of status section but that’s not relevant to you. I’ll ask a lovely mod to move the thread for you. 🙂

    She can (and should) get health insurance, it just would be full price unless she’ll be working and can get it through her job. So get some quotes from your marketplace and factor that in to the budget.

    No, it’s quite quick but 3 visits before filing is good, and you’ll have plenty of time to gather more evidence after you’ve filed too. If you get married in July and then file the I-130, it’ll be fall/winter 2026 (going on current timescales - obviously subject to change) before you’ll be applying for the visa, and you can submit additional proof whilst the I-130 is being processed. Just keep good evidence of your communications and time together in person. Best of luck.

    I’d agree, and say go with the IR2 option as it’ll be much quicker, if the F2A was only filed in November 2024. But @AileenRico42, are you sure the Priority Date for the F2A is November 2024? That doesn’t line up with the dates given in your previous thread. So it will very much depend on exactly when both were filed. Please do let us know exact PD’s for each case, as it makes a big difference.

    The review will be quick, but it’s waiting your turn in line for that review that takes the time. Unless things speed up (most people expect the opposite to happen with the new administration) then it’ll be 2026 before the petition is approved - processing time is currently about 15 months. But I agree with the above, ignore the estimated processing time on your online account completely! It’s notoriously unreliable. Best of luck. It’s set out step by step here - https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/immigrate/the-immigrant-visa-process/step-1-submit-a-petition.html HTH.

    Have you resubmitted the I-751? What’s your current status? You can’t get a I-551 from a pending I-130.
  15. appleblossom
    December which year? And which visa category? Please fill in your timeline, thanks.
  16. appleblossom
    Are you sure the email isn’t the letter they’re referring to? If it has the date in it then that might be it? I’d try uploading that as well as contacting NVC.
  17. appleblossom
    Don’t fill either out yet, as said above you need to hold on until the I-130 for your newborn is approved. So there’s no point in asking for your husband’s to be expedited as you want to pause their applications at the NVC stage anyway.
  18. appleblossom
    Please fill in your timeline, thanks. The more EB applicant timelines we have, the better for everybody.

    Another vote for applying later this year. Unless there’s a specific reason you want citizenship rather than LPR status, for the sake of 8 months, I’d just wait to apply personally.
  20. appleblossom
    Because the only Canadians applying for B visas will be high risk (criminal record, previous US visa violation, etc). Everybody else can enter the US for up to 6 months without needing a visa.

    There is nowhere to add it, as her parents cannot bring derivatives I’m afraid.

    Follow the link on the usual website and it gives you details - https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/immigrate/the-immigrant-visa-process/step-10-prepare-for-the-interview.html https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/Supplements/Supplements_by_Post/MNL-Manila.html Good luck.

    I guess it depends on if it’s guaranteed or not i.e. dividends from stocks that could fluctuate wouldn’t be. But I agree that cash assets should be acceptable, I don’t see why you can’t submit evidence of that to meet the requirements. It might be worth giving details of the number of people in the household and the amounts you’ve put on the application (plus amount of assets) so that those in the know can help, best of luck.

    Hopefully a mod will move this to the main forum, so more people see it - I’m specifically thinking of @pushbrk who is a whizz when it comes to the financial stuff, and others in the know. What was the passive income? I’m wondering if they won’t take that if it’s not guaranteed - i.e. if it’s from rental property that could be empty in the future?

    Not changing terminals doesn’t mean they won’t go through immigration. If both flights are on one ticket then generally they won’t. But if it’s with different airlines and they need to recheck their bags between flights, then they usually will. They need to check with the airline.
