IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & ProceduresPossible Interview date

When my husband was getting his visa two years ago it was always the second week of the month, unless it was an embassy that is slower. Slower embassys, like Lima, Peru, schedule interviews through out the month. So you should know in the next two weeks or so.


Thanks for your response

I was wondering since my case was expedited and I never got to pay the IV or send off the DS230 will the JA embassy request this first and then set the interview or will it all be taken care of at the time of the interview?

Send the embassy an email and ask them the question.




No it's the fee that is usually paid at the NVC state, but since NVc was skipped the fee wasn't paid there.


i have sent 2 emails since last monday and no response so I called my congresswoman

As I have stated in previous post my I had my stepdaughter's case expedited well the NVC sent her case to JA on April 22 a few days before that I sent in the DS3032 and AOS so the NVC never sent it with the case to JA. So on friday they called her great aunt who she use to live with and sent her info to her and she had to fax it to me and it is not so great does anyone know if when I send in the DS230 to the embassy do I have to send the money then to pay for it or does it get paid at the embassy at the time of the interview?

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & ProceduresCR1 question
Hello
I have a friend who planning to go oversea and get married there instead of doing K1. It look like CR1 visa now get approved faster.

The only thing he is worried about how strict is the rules and what proof they need. He plan to go there for 2 1/2 weeks and get married there and later apply for visa on his return. They did not live together in apartment nor have bank accounts together. Does he need re-visit her after he get married or just open bank account together or something similar to it.

I told him K1 is easier but more expensive and possibly slow...

Note: It will be his first visit though...

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & Procedureshopefully :(

that's why I was confused and asked if you were filing concurrently or not. If you weren't, then I can understand needing a copy of the I-130 to send in with your I-485 after the NOA for the I-130 ... but you're yelling about two copies what why? You only need to send in ONE!




IMPORTANT!
Make TWO copies of the entire package before you send it in. This includes the money orders too. You want to have a perfect replica of the package you are sending in. All Forms that you submit must be originals with original signatures. Supporting Evidence that you submit may be photocopies. Retain ALL original supporting Evidence since the USCIS has the right to check them by issuing an RFE (Request For Evidence). If you receive an RFE, follow the direction exactly, and make two copies of what you sent back. During any future interviews the USCIS may also want to examine the original supporting evidence.




i only follow what they say here.... make TWO copies of the entire package before you sent it in...
my hubby he only sent one copy of I-130 2 copy of G-325a one for me and one for him 1145 and some evidence. so isn't understand now what is on my question? that important words are from Step-by-Step Guide on How to File for a IR-1 / CR-1 Visa for a Foreign Spouse.

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & Procedureshopefully :(

USCIS and NVC are two different offices. Only one set of original paperwork is needed upon filing to the USCIS. The requirements for NVC are sent once you have NOA2, that is expected after 6-8 months. Hopefully, he made extra copy for his file / reference. Hope you got me now :)


one set of I-130 G-325A and 1145 and the evidence thats what you mean???
missing_tulipsFemalePhilippines2012-08-02 08:21:00
IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & Procedureshopefully :(

I remember, only one copy of various forms and supporting documents are required when filing. But, it is best to keep another copy for reference / file. In case there is RFE, the USCIS will not contact you as beneficiary, instead, they will contact your husband since he is the petitioner. Good luck !


I mean we need to sent 2 copies cuz the other copy will kept in USCIS and the NVC so they have a copy. my husband he sent only 1 copy of I-130 and some evidence.

*** Moving from Effects of Major Changes to CR-1 visa forum ***

Why would you send two copies?


i mean 2 copies. like 2 copies of i-130 2 copies of g-1145 and 2 copies of g-325a then send to USCIS.. but he only make 1 copy of each. so idk now if they going to reject the papers cuz of that. and i know thats why they need a 2 copies cuz the other copy will be kept on USCIS then the other one going to NVC.

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & ProceduresMedical Worries

If you don't want to pay for your spouse to be on your insurance now you can add him once he immigrates. Immigration is considered a life changing event and you will be allowed to add him at that time (at least in Ohio it is). I researched it and spoke to my company HR and they confirmed that yes immigration is a life changer that will allow you to add him immediately and he will be covered immediately. They told me I just have to add him within 30 days of entering the country.

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & Proceduresi-864 How to list negative income

I have a similar issue as I was living and working in India since 2008. I moved back to the US in June 2013 just to have my income be on the positive side. My tax returns for 2009-2012 all have negative income as well due to the foreign income exclusions and losses I sustained in the US.

 

I am curious what to list as we have not yet reached the I864 stage yet.

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & ProceduresMistake in Marriage Certificate

is this an indian marriage certificate or a US one? regardless, the address on the certificate is not going to be permanent (as in you will move at some point) and you don't update your marriage certificate each time you move so does it really matter?


Kat&AbhiFemaleIndia2014-02-07 19:10:00
IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & ProceduresAnyone here who recently got a PCC from India ?

Thanks. When i asked the NVC rep about Mumbai being the location for interview than New Delhi, she told me that the location of the interview is based on distance from Applicant's home address. So in our case wife lives in chennai and mumbai is closer than Newdelhi. It made sense. Same logic does not apply to your case so i have no idea why it is NewDelhi for your wife. 

 

Wife got her PCC from the passport office for NVC in October 2013. Even though the I/L did not say to get a new PCC(from the passport office) for her interview on Feb 2014, i asked her to get another one so that she has a latest copy for her interview(Just in case). She did get one around Jan 15th and apparently no docs(PCC, Evidence) were asked during her VISA interview. 

 

We are in Bangalore and are expecting to have to go to Mumbai for interview, does this mean that maybe we might go to Delhi?

 

Will I be allowed in with my hubby when he goes for interview? I heard Mumbai its not allowed?
