    Following was @Froozion's experience: Hi all, Just wanted to give a final update. We crossed the border on 18th october. Received our SSN on 1st November. Received our green card 8th November. Thank you for all the help and support in this group over the years. Good luck to everyone else still in the process. I wish you fast interview letters and no AP for you all. Good luck!

    I may missed it in chat history but is there anyone who are DQ'd October 2023 and got IL?
  23. Aaron_
    right, based on the group members' experience. I've just verified with chatgpt. Unfortunately, it doesn't share the resource, but group members have verified it. I'd really like to hear from @Froozion's experience.

    Reference ChatGPT: Once you enter the U.S. with your one-time entry immigrant visa (issued after your immigrant petition, such as for a green card, has been approved), you technically become a permanent resident upon your first entry. However, there are important considerations for travel after this entry, especially before you receive your actual green card. Here’s how the process works and what to consider if you need to travel soon after entering the U.S.: 1. Stamp in Your Passport (I-551 Stamp): When you first enter the U.S. with the one-time entry immigrant visa, the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) officer will place an I-551 stamp in your passport. This stamp serves as temporary evidence of your permanent resident status, and it is usually valid for one year. The I-551 stamp allows you to travel internationally and re-enter the U.S. even before you receive your physical green card. 2. Travel After First Entry: You can leave the U.S. after your initial entry and re-enter, provided that your I-551 stamp is still valid (until your green card is physically mailed to you). The I-551 stamp in your passport will act as your proof of lawful permanent resident (LPR) status, allowing you to travel in and out of the U.S. while awaiting your green card. 3. Recommended Approach: If you need to return to Canada or another country to wrap things up, you can do so after entering the U.S. with your immigrant visa. Make sure to return to the U.S. before your I-551 stamp expires or before your green card arrives (whichever comes first). It is usually advisable not to stay outside the U.S. for an extended period of time (typically not more than 6 months) during this process, as it could raise concerns about your intent to maintain permanent residency. 4. What Happens If You Stay Out for Too Long?: Extended absences (longer than 6 months) could lead to issues with re-entry, as the CBP might question whether you intend to live permanently in the U.S. If you anticipate a prolonged stay outside the U.S., you may want to look into applying for a Re-entry Permit, which allows you to stay outside the U.S. for up to 2 years without jeopardizing your permanent resident status. However, this process must be started after your initial entry as a permanent resident. 5. Receiving the Green Card: Your green card is typically mailed to the U.S. address you provided within a few weeks to months after your initial entry. If you need to travel while waiting for the physical green card, the I-551 stamp will serve as proof of your permanent resident status. Best Approach: Enter the U.S. with your immigrant visa, get your I-551 stamp, and handle your necessary matters in the U.S. If needed, travel back to Canada using your I-551 stamp for re-entry. Ensure that you don’t remain outside the U.S. for too long, as it could lead to complications.

    First of all, congratulations! I’m just confused. You were DQ'd in January 2023, but you just had your interview today. The official explanation states that they called those DQ'd in August 2023 for interviews. How is this happening?

    Congratulations, Froozion! I am really happy for you and your family. You are one of the most contributing members of this forum, and I appreciate you sharing your experience. My question is a bit speculative: Do you think the interview is just a formality and that the decision has already been made? Did you get that feeling?

    Congratulations to those who got their IL. Can we safely say that most employment cases scheduled for interviews were documentarily complete in July 2023?
  34. Aaron_
    Hi Froozion, where do you get antibody test? Thank you
  35. Aaron_
    disregard (couldn't delete the post)
