    @appleblossom thanks. Yep, I found that info on the NVC website but also some experiences from people who were transferred without proof of residency on Reddit and here, so thought I might as well try. It's a bit strange to me that DOS encourages people to travel for non-immigrant visas to ease the backlog, but not for immigrant ones, and also that non-immigrant visas seem to be prioritised. For example, in the Prague embassy, getting a non-immigrant visa appointment of any kind will take less time than even IR1/CR1

    For context, we are waiting for my immigrant case interview letter (employment category) in the Czech Republic. This embassy handles very few cases and it takes a while. My DQ date is November 29th, 2024, and I've seen at least one employment-based case with a date in mid October 2024 who hasn't had their interview scheduled yet. This is a bit disheartening, to be honest, especially since I didn't find anyone who was scheduled, so I don't know if it's further 2 months or 1 year of wait. I see that Frankfurt and Warsaw embassies seem to be very fast, as well as others like Dublin and Stockholm I know NVC requests eligibility proof for a case transfer. My wife is a permanent resident of CR, which gives her freedom of residence within the EU, and me along with her. Does being qualified for residence anywhere in the EU suffice? I've also seen a few reports that residence itself is not necessary and NVC is more lenient when the embassy you want to move to is not backlogged

    @TylerR I am also in tech, and all of my evidence is from industry, not academia. I have a degree and one paper associated with it, but the core of my case is the hard work and leadership I've done for the past 6.5 years I had quite a mixed bag of experience with lawyers during consultations, so I ended up doing the petition myself and it worked out. A lot of them will be either claiming you're amazing or terrible depending on their typical case type and/or how badly they need to make a sale, so be careful. One lawyer claimed I have a zero chance of approval cause I'm just 25. Jokes on him, what matters is your profile, of course, it's less likely to be approved at a young age, but not impossible if you have the qualifications and accolades

    @TylerR The wegreened law firm specializes in academic cases, so don't be discouraged if (or when) they don't take your case. They rejected me, but I got approved for EB1A anyway. My profile doesn't match with what they are most competent/efficient in. Talk to a bunch of lawyers, most offer free consultations. Or even consider doing it yourself, it's possible as well

    Hey everyone, I have been waiting for my IL for an EB1A case since 29th November 2024. The consulate is in Prague, Czech Republic. I know that immediate relative petitions with DQ dates from early December were scheduled about a month ago. So roughly in this consulate, IR petitions take 45 days to schedule, I'm almost double that with EB right now with no interview. Since employment-based cases are a lower priority, how much longer on average does it take in the EU? 2, 3, 4 times as long? Obviously, I want to receive the visa as soon as possible and contribute positively to the US, but the uncertainty is exhausting Thanks for any insights you might have

    Hey everyone, My EB1A case has been DQ since 29th November 2024, and I'm still waiting for the interview letter. The consulate is Prague, Czech Republic. I know of at least one person with a similar PD who got their IL, but it's a family case. So I'm wondering based on previous posts from all over the EU, how much longer does it usually take for employment cases? Thanks
