    They will respond, but you're just waiting your turn. As above, it's only been 10 days (today is another holiday too) so too early to expect them to be processing it yet.
  2. appleblossom
    Nothing to do but wait until they get to it - it's probably sitting waiting to be looked at. Hope it's not too long for you.

    In all honesty I can’t see why they would choose the US over Canada. Canada is a far more sensible option for somebody on a low skilled/low salary visa IMO.

    It’s both. Follow the full website guide - https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/immigrate/the-immigrant-visa-process/step-1-submit-a-petition/step-2-begin-nvc-processing.html Good luck.

    It takes much longer than 3 months in Lagos I’m afraid, there’s a big backlog there. Unless that reduces, your parents aren’t likely to get their interviews until 2025. Good luck.

    If you have proof of you being resident in London (utility bills in your name, being on electoral roll, etc) then absolutely do request it. It would be so much quicker.
  7. appleblossom
    2-3 months. But are you actually resident in London? You can’t switch to a consulate unless you live/work there. If you do, then definitely request a transfer as it will be much quicker and also save you having to fly back to Lagos for your interview.

    On other threads.

    Yes, but the applicant doesn’t need to wait in the US whilst it’s processed. They can leave once biometrics are done. And it seems to be the only option if the husband and wife want to wait the waiver out together.
  10. appleblossom
    No way of knowing unfortunately, it depends on the reason for it and the checks they're doing. There's no set timeline.
  11. appleblossom
    Ah, I see. You'll be sent a full list of everything that you need to get before the appointment then, I wouldn't get your SCR yet as they may say it needs to be more recent when you do have the medical. Your GP surgery should be able to do most missing vaccinations. Good luck.
  12. appleblossom
    Yes, they have given some August interviews, but there may still be others available. I'd think it more likely that anybody that gets an IL in July will get a Sept interview date though.
  13. appleblossom
    Yeah, just vaccination history won't be enough. You also need medical history, any medications etc - all of that (along with the vaccination records) will be on your SCR. Have you booked your medical yet? As the confirmation should tell you what you need to bring.
  14. appleblossom
    Can your GP write a letter about your diagnosis and treatment? We had to get that for my daughter who was on anti-depressants and had a history of anxiety and self harm. The all important wording that's needed is that you are 'not a danger to yourself or others'.

    Usually the end of the month, but they can be anytime, particularly at this time of year when they have additional NIV interviews and DV interviews to schedule. So just keep an eye on your email (including junk folder). Good luck.
  16. appleblossom
    Hopefully it will be this month, but if you only became current yesterday then just to set expectations, it could arrive next month. Fingers crossed for July for you though…….🤞
  17. appleblossom
    Only if the PD is current - and it hasn't been for @dabursot2. So PD and category is very relevant as well as the DQ date.
  18. appleblossom
    Top tip: hit the 'Timeline' on somebody's posts to see their details - if they've completed them of course. Please fill yours in as well, the more EB timelines we have the better, thank you.
  19. appleblossom
    So no grounds to expedite. But as above, the parent with their green card can file for a re-entry permit then return to wait with their spouse so they don’t need to be apart. Good luck.
  20. appleblossom
    Melbourne doesn’t do IV’s, Sydney is your only option. And there’s no limit on the number of immediate relative visas (spouse, parents etc) that can be issued each year. Sydney isn’t one of the worst consulates though, so hopefully it won’t be too long. Good luck.
  21. appleblossom
    For the medical you need your 'Summary Care Record', is that what you've got? Should be fine if so, mine did have my surgery name on the top right hand corner but I can't imagine it would matter if yours didn't have that on.
  22. appleblossom
    Unfortunately I think it's unlikely you'll get an IL this month, so it'll depend on how much EB3 retrogresses in August's bulletin (or if it becomes unavailable), you may find you're out of the running again once that happens.
  23. appleblossom
    OK, so NVC should respond to their public enquiry with the Welcome Letter hopefully - then they can start filing. But I wouldn't worry about the delay, as it's going to be a long time until there is a visa available anyway, so don't stress about that. Good luck.
  24. appleblossom
    It is different every month, no way of knowing. They'd been following a pattern of the end of every month when I was waiting for mine, then I got mine much earlier. Just keep an eye on your emails, and junk folder too. Good luck.
  25. appleblossom
    You don’t do anything, you just wait for an interview letter. Which consulate? The wait varies hugely depending on that. It can be as little as 2-3 months, or as long as 2-3 years.
