This old sheet is not updated. Some people are already cleared from AP like ice-qube (via WOM after 13 months), BatmanFlow etc.

CR1/IR1 and other visa type data is still there. Looks like members are filtering the spreadsheet on Visa Type (K1) and not reverting back to "select all" once done.

Dismissal of WOMs this year may also be a contributing factor in term of clearance stats.

Re: Dr Lyndon Mascarenhas - When you send an email for appointment after registration, doctor office will ask you to take digital photo from your mobile phone camera and email them. No need for 5 photographs as mentioned on the website.

@tas005 >>>in the 221 g paper they gave me, CO crossed check on “supplemental question” line and asked me to wait for the email, in interview upon my asking, CO didnt even tell me anything what to submit Same here but we received email with DS-5535 link + request for resume In our case email subject line contains MTL###, Last Name, First Name - DS-5535 if your email does not say DS-5535, just wait rather than asking consulate for DS-5535

Sorry to hear about that. Please enter your information in the following spreadsheet for benefit of others in AP https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1jV7rzX2eCRVoEDRhOtN9a6hDoHRLNEf1P3ZGZbQ0_Dc/edit#gid=0 You may look at it to get some idea about AP - Generally AP completion time varies from 2 - 6 months plus. Most of the member interviewed in Mar/April 2023 are still waiting for AP clearance.

Electronics Engineering is not in TAL list publicly available. It is hard to tell where your AP ends up until you receive visa stamp. There is annotation on visa that says "Clearance received on ....". That mean your case went to DC for clearance supplemental questions refer to DS-5535. and it is checked on 221g. The DS-5535 email from consulate contains online link for DS-5535 form now a days. Updated resume is mentioned in the same email if requested. It is up to you to mail the hard copy to consulate or not. At this point all you can do wait like other members are suggesting.

You have to reestablish domicile intent before interview otherwise visa will be delayed I would suggest upload and mention formal Rental agreement from your parent in above letter as a separate bullet point + Show some emails that you are actively seeking jobs in USA or enroll for physical courses in USA college . You need to upload everything one week before interview and also take proof of intent to reestablish domicile to the interview . Sometimes petitioner move to USA prior to interview to reestablish domicile.

Consulate used to ask for Resume only when the DS-5535 was not introduced. Resume can be asked from any IR/CR category depending on your education background or work experience in addition to DS-5535. Would you mind telling what is your education background /work experience? In general if the AP can be resolved at consulate level, it will be relatively quicker but if your case is going to DC for clearance then it may take longer. Since they kept your passport and gave you 221g at the spot, you case may resolve quickly. Your case is the first in VJ community where they asked for Resume only without DS-5535

>>2) Im employed overseas so pay stubs arent available is my Tax transcripts and Employment letter sufficient enough? *Im glade I found this forum because you just pointed me to a major whole in my application, I never provided an employment letter will do that ASAP Only US income and US Assets can be used for AOS (I-864). If it is foreign income, you better look for Joint Sponsor(if not) or use JS US income on AOS. >>1) I got a JS waitng on proof of domicile: - Would a Vehicle Registration and Drivers license bearing the same address as the AOS qualify as Proof of Domicile? Generally Tax transcript with US address is sufficient as a proof of domicile. Alternative you may provide Drivers license from your/JS state in US. It will be accepted. If you living abroad then proving your US Domicile at interview will be another issue. Please provide more detail about your residency (Petitioner)

If you can prove in the interview that your income+ assets are sufficient for household size and as per NVC guidelines then ignore this message. Only one car will be counted as an Asset. Otherwise get a Joint sponsor and upload AOS and supporting documents from JS to NVC once your case is transfer to the embassy. Also upload latest pay stub and employment letter indicating your salary (if possible) before an interview. https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/immigrate/the-immigrant-visa-process/step-1-submit-a-petition/i-864-affidavit-faqs.html

In addition to enter household member information in your I-864 (Section 6), you need to add Household member just like petitioner under AOS section (NVC site) and upload all documents for the household member there provided you have not done so. It may be available to upload documents after few days. Not sure how you did it?

Either Montreal consulate asked for DS-5535 only or both DS-5535 + CV in the following spreadsheet (mostly): https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1jV7rzX2eCRVoEDRhOtN9a6hDoHRLNEf1P3ZGZbQ0_Dc/edit#gid=0 Your case is the first case, to my knowledge, where Consulate asked for Resume only. My dad was requested for CV only few years back when applied for B1/B2 visa and the case was cleared in 30 days but the clearance was received from DC

If they ask for your CV it means either your education background/work experience is in TAL (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Technology_Alert_List#:~:text=The Technology Alert List (TAL,nontransfer of U.S.-held technologies.) If they did not ask for DS5535 then AP might be resolved at consulate level not sure. Generally they ask for both DS-5535 and resume together. AP Processing may take from 60 days to 6 month plus for Montreal.

Just visit walk-in clinic/travel clinic and ask doctor to write immunity test requisition for you. You can take that requisition to LifeLab. Your walk-in clinic will receive the results within a week. Based on results, you can immunize yourself. One dose is enough for medical and take the immunity test results to embassy panel doctor along with immunization record for recent doses (if applicable) signed by nurse (Yellow booklet).

@ALC I just saw spreadsheet. Congrats on clearing AP so quickly just in 85 days. Would you mind telling what is the clearance received date on your visa. You told earlier that 8/31 was the last update for you.
