Angiw

Hey everyone, Got an update this morning. I am here to again ask if anyone has clue. BG: I am EB1A main applicant with spouse, interviewed on September 16, 2024 and was requested DS 5535. I uploaded the required information through the webpage later September. CEAC information for our cases has remained "Refused" since then. I checked CEAC again this morning around 9 am. It showed "refused" and last update was Oct 30/31 (cannot remember which date exactly). Then, I just received a phone call from my spouse saying she received emails around 11 am from consulate (donotreply@usvisa-info.com) saying "We are writing to request the following documents for you and your spouse to move forward with your immigrant visa application: · Passport " Two consecutive emails arrived, almost identical with the only change being "Processor Comments" in one and "Consular Section Comments" in the other. Then, I checked CEAC again. It is still "refused" but the last update is now today Nov 4th. Then, I checked usvisa-info.com, in my account, the "current status" still shows "appointment"; but in my spouse's account, it shows "send documents". Therefore, I have a couple questions: 1. Does this likely indicate that our IV is basically approved and only waiting for our passport to put sticker on? 2. Why the email was only sent to my spouse, not me, the main applicant?

Thank you guys all for your suggestions! I'll just wait until the consulate contacts me for anything... Good luck to everyone, and to myself

Hey guys. Unfortunate to be a new member here in this thread. EB-1A, Chinese Citizen, Canadian PR, Ph.D. from US, Materials Scientist in Canada DQ: March, 2023 Interview: Sep 16, 2024 My CV was asked during interview, and I was given 221(g) with my passport back. The only requested document was my DS-5535. The officer gave me two OF-194 sheets. One is 12-2010, on which they required Passports x2 (mine and my spouse's) under "you must present the documents listed above and/or the following information", and the other one is 06-2017, on which only the 221g, AP and 5535 squares were ticked. No instructions regarding passports are provided. I filled the form (more like a questionnaire) online yesterday, and send message to my lawyer for confirmation. The lawyer said I should mail the passports immediately to them since it is requested. So, I am quite confused. Do I actually need to mail the passports now, or I should wait for the processing of my DS-5535, and wait for notifications from the consulate? Thanks in advance!
