I was an exchange Visitor in 2010 and now a US resident. I had requested an advisory opinion before my interview for green finding of two-years foreign residency. I am leaving a copy of my Advisory maybe this helps for guys trying to find out. post-133864-0-28410600-1352239640_thumb.jpg

My J-1 exp. on 25 May 2012, I'm in my country and my CR-1 already has the interview date on Dec 12, my questions are;

What steps you took to get that letter? and when?

May you give some guidance on my situation?

Hi mightyarch,

I applied for advisory opinion a week ago. I sent request form and everything needed via overnight express mail. But check my statues on-line with my case number still shows "Currently, there is no information regarding the status of your case." Is it normal?

How long did it take for you to see any "status" on-line? And, how long did it take to get the reply from the time you sent the application for advisory opinion?

Please share your experience. It will relieve my worry.

how did you get a case number for the advisory opinion? I thought you sent the letter out requesting the opinion with copies of visa and DS-2019 forms. Do you need to apply for case number first?
