    Again, we need to know how long the I-130 took to be approved. That’s the crucial bit of info. Basically, for CPSA you can subtract the time the I-130 took from the actual age. So for example, if the I-130 takes 2 years to be processed, then that person can still qualify for a visa up to the age of 23, as you add the 2 years on to the ‘age out’ age of 21.

    How long did the I-130 take? What is the Priority Date and when was it approved? You need to know that to work out if she's aged out or is protected by CPSA.

    It is for immediate relatives - but the OP is a green card holder, not USC.

    You listed them under section 4 of the I-130? You'll be sent a Welcome Letter with your case number on, and then you can log in and pay fees, submit docs, etc. What's your PD and which country? How old is your daughter and how long did the I-130 take to process?
  5. appleblossom
    You don't need your green card to do that, your endorsed visa in your passport acts as a temporary green card for the first year anyway. So you don't need it until July next year.

    I'm sorry to hear that. I hope that it's a quick approval for you after the 18th and you can start 2025 together in the US. Good luck.
  7. appleblossom
    The I-130 approval or denial.
  8. appleblossom
    Yes. This is only the first step, the I-130. It's the visa application that your relative (or you, whoever is being petitioned) will be interviewed for, and that's further down the line. As said above, you're conflating two different processes.

    Stokes interview is where they basically interview you both to see if your answers match up to questions given. Sounds like you should be fine if it's your 9th trip together, what evidence did you give of your relationship? I wonder if it wasn't enough so that's why they're questioning it.
  10. appleblossom
    No, not common at all. Sounds like they have some doubts about your relationship, it may be a Stokes interview. But at least they've given you the chance of an interview rather than a rejection. When's the interview?

    For all documents you need to check this webpage, it gives you the info on what is required for the marriage cert - https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/Visa-Reciprocity-and-Civil-Documents-by-Country/Nepal.html Looks like the ward certificate is compulsory if you married after 2017. Good luck.

    You spoke to a call centre agent (that will probably be pretty useless), not an officer. But the form is what you needed so hopefully that will get you sorted. My daughter’s card didn’t turn up either, turned out her photo needed to be redone as it wasn’t good enough, so she had to go and do that. Hopefully it will be something equally simple for you. Good luck.
  13. appleblossom
    Oh that’s good! What does your online status say? When it changes to ‘issued’ you’ll know it’s about to be on its way back with a lovely visa in it.

    How did you contact USCIS? Did you fill in the form? https://egov.uscis.gov/e-request/displayNDCForm.do?entryPoint=init&sroPageType=ndc If so, that's all you can do for now until they get back to you.

    He's already got a fiancée, he's not trying to find one. And the age limit is a bit creepy, he could be twice that age for all we know! 🤮😂
  16. appleblossom
    Just to confirm, you've also filed I-130 and her Priority Date was current when you submitted the I-485? When does her F-1 expire?
  17. appleblossom
    If you scroll down the processing times page you can check the date you can submit an enquiry for your case, my guess is it'll be far too early though.
  18. appleblossom
    Your previous posts say your I-30 was approved back in June? Or do you mean waiting for an interview? If so, lots will be - some consulates still have a 2+ year wait for interviews. Manila does the odd 'mass expedite' thing, but the last one (a couple of weeks ago) was for those DQ'ed up to April 2024 I believe, so you might be in the next one. Good luck.
  19. appleblossom
    Give it a go then, you might as well. Good luck.

    Which district? For example, for Lubbock Country (after a quick Google), they say 'Both parties must provide their social security number or state they have none.' https://www.lubbockcounty.gov/department/division.php?fDD=2-7#:~:text=*Both parties must provide their,the presence of the Clerk. I'd just give them a call or pop in and ask. It would be very odd if there was no way to get married without one, after all tourists can get married and they definitely won't have one!
  21. appleblossom
    I think the confusion has arisen as you said your father is in Sudan? So not normally resident in Jerusalem/Tel Aviv/Beirut?
  22. appleblossom
    It would be odd if that was a requirement, I don't see how that can be the case. Many K-1's don't even apply for a SSN until after they are married. So I'd speak to somebody in person and see what they say, good luck.

    Sorry, typo, I meant Cairo - they're taking Khartoum cases. You can certainly try it but as it says on the link above only US citizens resident in those particular areas are eligible for emergency filings, so you wouldn't qualify according to that if you live in the US. But give it a go, it's worth a try before you file the I-130. Good luck.
  24. appleblossom
    It doesn't seem as though he qualifies for emergency filing though - as per @Boiler's post, as you say you're currently in the US? So his application will be processed via Khartoum when it gets to that point, but it'll be the same process as your mothers. You could try to expedite the I-130 once you've filed it though, it's worth a try. Good luck.
  25. appleblossom
    It depends on how you're doing it. If eligible for DCF (only certain situations qualify for this i.e. your wife having a job offer in the US that necessitates her moving back quickly), then you apply via the US consulate. If you don't qualify for that, then you file the I-130 online. The consulate won't come in to the process until much further down the line, when you apply for your visa. Good luck.
