    Presumably you declared it on the DS-160? Not just in the interview?

    As said above, these don’t exist. If things happen quite quickly after the hearing then it’ll be a 2 year conditional GC as you’ll have been married less than 2 years at that point. Best of luck to you.

    Also, just another thought but do be prepared for lengthy AP after the interview if your parent is from Iran. Good luck.

    That’s actually not too bad, sone consulates are well over 2 years wait for an IL, and Montreal used to be near that but they’ve got through most of their backlog and are much quicker now. So you should hear in spring 2026, good luck.

    Plenty of people on the forum have spent months/years in AP. But it's rare for a 'safe' country like Italy (not saying it could never happen though). It's more common for somebody from somewhere like Pakistan or Iran. If you could only manage a month or two waiting for the visa before things got tight, I would strongly recommend she waits for the visa in hand before she hands her notice in. Best of luck.

    On your profile please. And generally a couple of months ahead, so if you got an IL this month it would be for an interview around January time typically. Although Veterans Day/Thanksgiving/Xmas/NY may have a bit of an impact on that. Good luck.

    Generally towards the end of the month, but again it can vary. Please fill your timeline to add to the body of knowledge on VJ, thanks!

    But most people have a phone, so in effect they do have a home scanner, just a smaller one!

    The visa being granted is one thing, but the time it takes to get that visa after the interview is another. Admin Processing can sometimes take months or even years. Is she Italian? If she is, and no links to higher fraud countries, and nothing else in her background that might raise a red flag, then hopefully a long AP isn't likely. I still would never quit a job until I had the visa in hand personally. But it may be different for you it would be ok if she wasn't able to work for a chunk of time - if financially you'd be ok then maybe she could take the risk. Good luck.

    How can you be sure? She wouldn't have been notified if he had, and it would be VERY unusual for him to just leave it and be happy to be on the hook for her for the next 10+ years if they've divorced. Are they still in contact? Can she ask him?
  12. appleblossom
    For what kind of case? Your profile says K-1 but you’ve posted this in the spousal visa forum?
  13. appleblossom
    Are you petitioning a parent too? It’s always best to ask any questions on your own new thread, but you just need to follow the step by step instructions here - https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/immigrate/the-immigrant-visa-process/step-1-submit-a-petition.html Good luck.

    Shared that in my post above.

    In my post above! So if DQ'ed in Feb 2024 she should get an IL in about 6 months, so her interview is likely to be around July/August next year as a rough guide.
  16. appleblossom
    Hang on, 2024 or 2023? You said 2023 in your first post? It's normal if it's 2024, as I said above it's not forwarded to the consulate until after an interview has been scheduled. And currently those DQ'ed in August 2023 are being scheduled for interviews now, so it's a 2 year 3 month wait. https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/visa-information-resources/iv-wait-times.html So if she was DQ'ed in 2024, you've still got a way to go. If she was DQ'ed in 2023, you should have an interview letter a few months ago and something isn't right.
  17. appleblossom
    What does her online status say? You said the case has been forwarded to the consulate, and that should only happen AFTER the interview letter is received. So how do you know it's at the consulate?
  18. appleblossom
    That's odd, she should have had an interview quite a while ago. Currently those DQ'ed in August 2023 are being scheduled for interviews. When you say it's been forwarded to Ghana, how do you know that, is that what her online status says? When did that happen? Are you sure you haven't missed the interview email, has she checked junk/spam folders?
  19. appleblossom
    I’m sure they have. Sydney does a lot less immigrant visa issuances compared to other consulates, so you just may not come across anybody on social media as there won’t be many of you around. But it’s usually spot on.

    Sept currently being scheduled. https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/visa-information-resources/iv-wait-times.html

    He'd also have been confirmed, so his certificate from that would be good evidence.
  22. appleblossom
    You can't submit it early, it's a waiver of inadmissibility, so first he has to be found inadmissible. https://www.uscis.gov/sites/default/files/document/forms/i-601instr.pdf Yes, he'll need to provide his medical records anyway for the medical, so that will show that he's not been vaccinated. I'm not sure how him being a Christian means there is an issue with vaccines? But he'd need to get evidence of it not aligning with his beliefs (whatever text from the Bible etc), plus instead of sworn testimonies from his family members, I'd suggest one from his vicar outlining why he can't get vaccinated due to his religious beliefs. Good luck.

    Try that then, that's what it says to do if you need to reschedule on the consulate specific instructions - https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/Supplements/Supplements_by_Post/BMB-Mumbai.html

    **Thread moved to Waivers & Admin Processing forum as question relates to that** As long as you can prove that he's not had other vaccines and show evidence of his religion, then you might be ok without a lawyer. Is he a Jehovah's Witness? He needs to be deemed inadmissible first for the waiver, so you'll have to wait until after his interview. https://www.uscis.gov/sites/default/files/document/charts/i-601chart.pdf Luckily London's pretty quick so if you're DQ'ed soon he should have his interview in early 2026 (some other consulates have a 2+ year wait just for an interview, so you'd be looking at potentially another 4 years if he was at a backlogged consulate!).
