    You do normally need to provide proof of of residence - "If your petition is being processed at the National Visa Center (NVC), contact the NVC to request the transfer. NVC will transfer cases to another IV processing post if parties provide a written request along with the address in the requested country and the proof of eligibility (citizenship/legal residency in the requested country or other documentation). This can be provided at https://nvc.state.gov/inquiry. In limited circumstances, NVC may need to contact you for additional eligibility requirements." So you can ask but I wouldn’t get your hopes up.

    At the moment, yes, because your PD is current for filing in F1 category. But when will your parent become a USC, how far along the process are they? All you can do is keep an eye on the VB and see which category is a better option when they naturalize.

    Which forms did you include?

    Here’s one…...https://www.visajourney.com/timeline/profile.php?id=456999

    Where are you now, are you in the US or overseas?

    But if she was a green card holder she could work and contribute financially! So it would soon pay for itself. He needs somebody to have a tough conversation with him and point out that his wife is at risk of being deported, and that it will cost him far more in the long run to fight that. Plus fees go up all the time, if he’d applied even a year ago it would have been much cheaper, now he’s got to pay more.

    OK, so they need their own immigrant visas, but you only mention a I-130/case for your spouse?

    He’ll have a lot more papers to file if she’s deported!

    How odd. As @OldUser said, there’s no reason for him to not want her to become a legal resident, unless he likes keeping her dependent on him. He needs to understand that she’s at risk of being deported at any time, and with the current administration, that risk has substantially increased too. They need to sort it urgently.

    It didn’t turn up after 90 days so we submitted the form to say it hadn’t been received. They then mailed a notice to say she needed to have the photo done again.

    Are they still married?
  12. appleblossom
    OK, hopefully won’t be too much longer until it changes to card being produced. If it gets to 90 days then you just file to report it as not received, and it’s usually something simple (that happened to my daughter, she had to have her photo redone and then it was produced). Good luck.

    Not needed for London though, so no point in paying for it IMO. I was all ready with photos of my kids with chickenpox spots on ready to show the doc (as none of us had it on our medical records), but wasn’t even asked. It was just ticked as not required automatically which seems to be the norm for the UK.
  14. appleblossom
    It’s whichever is the latest date, so in your case 71 days. But what does the online status say?
  15. appleblossom
    Varicella will be waived as it’s not given in the UK. It won’t slow your application if you have it done at the medical, myself and my family all had to have several jabs each which were done on the day. It’s not cheap though so if you can get them done via your GP instead ahead of it, that would save some cash. You can also get a titre test done to check for immunity, but I’d think that would delay things. Best of luck.

    You need to check your status online using the receipt number from the fee, that’ll tell you when the card is being produced. But it can take up to 90 days so you’re still well within that timeframe.
  17. appleblossom
    This is the thread you need. Good luck.

    Just get an ADIT stamp, you just phone up and they mail it to you. It will be valid for a year and works as a replacement green card until the new one turns up. https://www.uscis.gov/i-9-central/form-i-9-related-news/temporary-status-documentation-for-lawful-permanent-residents-lpr

    They can but it will still take several years, as she’s not an immediate relative if they’re GC holders. She’d be category F2A which has a 3-4 year wait for a visa as a very rough guide.
  20. appleblossom
    You should have it, from when you paid the fee? That’s the receipt number you need.
  21. appleblossom
    Who are you filing for? Are you a green card holder? It’s just that you’ve put this in the family members of LPR’s section of the forum, and so filing I-130 and I-485 concurrently wouldn’t normally apply.
  22. appleblossom
    Here you go, found the thread for your month -
  23. appleblossom
    You’re about 16 months off the NVC stage, so this isn’t really the right place for your thread - I’ll ask a kindly mod to move it for you. And if you head to the spousal sub forum, you’ll probably find a thread for those that applied in January that you can join too. Good luck.
  24. appleblossom
    Ours were all equally quick last year, the wait for the interview was what took the time.
  25. appleblossom
    Long wait at Islamabad, it’s about 15 months for immediate relatives and they’ll be given priority over your category. So I’d guess approx 18-24 months. Good luck.
