Due to COVID it got delayed until August 25 2020 and then cancelled. In January 2021 we got confirmation it was rescheduled for 3/3/2021. At the time of the interview, even though they had 2-3 years of my tax returns, they put him in administrative review until I submitted my 2020 taxes. I did them that day and then submitted thru the immigration portal. After 2 weeks of no word, I reached out to my local congressperson to contact the embassy. Simultaneously, the embassy was approving his visa. He picked up his passport at the local DHL roughly around 3/23/21 and then entered the US on 4/23/21. Because we had been married for 2 years at that point, they granted him a CR1 visa (allowing *i think* 5 years on the green card vs 1 on the IR1). We got a notice from USCIS that on 7/29/21 they were finally making his green card and then on 8/3/21 we got another notice that it was mailed. So hopefully we get it in the next few days. Been a long 2.5 year process! Processing Estimates/Stats : Enter your I-130 NOA1 time in your timeline to get an estimated approval (NOA2) date!
