Thank you! Is there a deadline at all? how long can it sit at the NVC? like if I pause both at the NVC stage until she is born and approved, there will be no consequence? just making sure there is no deadline and they won’t retract my application

Also, just wondering… maybe a silly thought. but let’s say my husband and son get everything approved and good to go for our move. But my daughter holds only a Canadian passport as a newborn, can she enter the US with us as a Canadian on a regular visa and then file for an adjustment of status while we are there? Will this be less expensive/complicated than filing a whole new i-130 prior to?

I just got the NVC email for my son, but still awaiting i-130 approval for my husband. Do you think I can call now to speak to a Tier 2 agent and see if they can bump my husband? Just so I can fill it out at the same time?

Thank you for this! I’ll definitely follow these steps once she is born. How do I reach a Tier 2 agent? I find it impossible to get someone on the phone.

Just to clarify, I'm in Canada but not Montreal (Quebec). I live in Ottawa (ontario), not sure if this changes anything? Also my US bank statements go to a US address, does that help?

this is really smart, I thought about it. However, it will cost us a lot to give birth in the US whereas healthcare is free here for this reason, I don't think I can convince my husband

Okay thank you! I will do my research

Okay noted, I qualify for everything apart from this: Physical presence: The transmitting parent must have sufficient physical presence in the United States before the child's birth I have visited the US here and there in the past few years, but I haven't lived there since i was very little. SO will it then be a whole new i-130? (i hope not!)

Okay noted! I'll wait, haha just impatient and excited since my son's was approved! Yes, I have US bank accounts, and my us citizen brother lives in NY. maybe I should obtain a state ID to support my documents

!!Questions in RED!! I'm a US Citizen, I petitioned for the i-130 for my son and husband. My son: Sept 2023 My husband: Oct 2023 I just received approval for my son's petition, awaiting NVC notice I haven't gotten anything for my husband. Is there a way to speed his petition up? Or will I have to just wait? My second situation is, I am a dual citizen of the US and Canada, currently living in Canada. We plan to move to the US all together once they get fully approved. Do I need to be living in the US first, before they come? I petitioned for my son and husband in 2023, and I am now pregnant --due February 2025. My son's case was approved today and we are waiting for the NVC. I assume my husband's case will be approved soon. If baby is born before we all move to the US, what do I need to do for her? do I still do the CRBA? or I file another i-130 for her?
