    Ok thanks all. Still, if California is currently approving one person’s late-December petition, I guess there’s a chance they’ll approve mine too. It gives some hope!
  2. Penguin_DE started following Tax year query , IR-1 VJ processing time , Firearm question and 2 others
  3. Penguin_DE
    Hi, are the VJ processing times accurate? Meaning are people who filed IR1 in late December actually being approved at California/Vermont now?

    Thanks for all your help. To give you some extra context: This would be in Fauquier County, Virginia. The reason I’m concerned is because I may write an article about the experience. I’ve found this page but it’s a bit confusing: https://www.walkertaylorlaw.com/shoot-gun-in-the-us-as-a-tourist/

    Hi all, a strange one but perhaps someone can help: I have a B2 tourist visa. If I was to travel to the US and while at my relatives’ home, my brother-in-law hands me his gun for me to shoot a couple of rounds, is that allowed? Or are tourist visa holders not allowed to use firearms even if it’s in a private yard?

    Hi all, I logged in to USCIS to check the status of my I-130 petition but after logging in, it's now asking for an online access code as well as my receipt number? However, I don't currently have an online access code. Is this a new site update? Will they be sending these codes out?
  7. Penguin_DE
    Hi @CheckM8 how long did your I-130 take to process? My wife and I are also filing from UK.
  8. Penguin_DE
    Hi all, My USC wife and I submitted the I-130 two weeks ago, on February 9. There is now a 'myProgress' tab in our USCIS account which says the estimated time until a decision is made will be "2 months". Is this likely to change again? All the research I've done, it's supposed to actually take about 12 months. Thanks for your advice.

    Thanks all. I should have clarified that we are both in the UK and my USC wife works for a UK company, and she only files the standard 1040. I know June is our IRS deadline but if we haven't heard from the NVC by January 2025, we should file as soon as the IRS starts accepting 2024 returns in the new year?
  10. Penguin_DE
    Thanks all. So if we haven’t heard from the NVC by January 2025, it’s probably worth filing 2024 return with IRS as soon as the new year comes?
  11. Penguin_DE
    My partner and I just filed I-130. We understand it will take one year to process. If the NVC send request for documents in January 2025, is 2024 the latest tax year transcript required for the affidavit of support? Therefore, we would need to file the 2024 tax return with IRS at the start of 2025? Or, since it’s so early in the year, will 2023 count as the latest tax year?

    Thank you! Please keep me posted.

    Thank you for your help - that's very helpful.
  14. Penguin_DE
    Ok, thanks for your help. That's good to know. We'll be applying through London - not sure what their record is on liquid assets? I'll prep someone just in case when the time comes.
  15. Penguin_DE
    Even though we have more than enough in cash savings? That seems a little harsh. We can probably find a joint sponsor if we need to but I was hoping to avoid that.
  16. Penguin_DE
    Thank you all for your answers. She has an unexpired DL but it's in her old name (before marriage) and attached to her parents' old address (they just moved). She does apparently have some letters with their old address. Yes, we will use our savings as liquid assets. We have 3x poverty line.
