IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & ProceduresCR1 Intverview, 221g co-asking to submit more doc through DHL

 

 

 

Yes just sent, the lady just said submit the documents the dhl and passport

My wife who lives in Texas was up this morning, called the embassy in Lagos this morning,of course asking what was the delay about my visa, co responded that there is AP, and she doesn't know how long that will take, it could take weeks or months, my advice is can i still pick up my passport and leave for South Africa, where i have lived for 1 year now. 

 

Of course i sent the contact sheet and i was told they didn't received it, even when there was a confirmation email that it was received. I had to re send the scan contact sheet. Please Advice, should my wife call them everyday? will this help, she is in tears and i am not in a good spirit, had so much to do in South Africa

What did they say at interview? You were approved pending the documents? or they would let you know? Rarely does a reaffirm get denied. But since you didn't come to interview prepared with the documents you are delayed now and thats indefinite no one can say for sure.

 

I understand the worry you have gone through alot for a long time. Just ease your mind, write the email. It is well. Lagos is pretty good in answering fast, hopefully you will get an answer by wednesday. I hope you are writing email now.ClockWatch2.gif

AOS approved. and my IV packet send off more than one month.. 


bernice_liiFemaleMalaysia2013-07-31 00:16:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsI cannot determine if my case has been touched

Lets clear this up. Why would you be calling NVC about your case when you haven't been approved? Once you get your notice of approval than they send your case off to NVC. That 5 months isn't a guarantee its their goal. If after your 5 months you can call USCIS and put in a service request even though at 5 months you are still within their processing times. Usually not until its been 6 months do they start maybe checking and seeing what is happening. Sorry

And stop looking at that last update in the majority of cases that date doesn't change until you are approved, Just because the date didn't change doesn't mean anything good or bad.



Before signing this forum i was not clear about the process,, we thought tat it would have approved and moved to NVC.. two of his friends got it in 5 months,, so we kept hoping for the same...only after reading several posts i came to know that the timeframe varies.. hoping to get it soon.

We applied for K1 on Jan 31, 2012 and received receipt on Feb 07, 2012... when i registered to check the case status, it shows that it was last updated on Feb 11, 2012. It's nearly 5 months and 4 days and i have not received any notifications. When i called NVC yesterday, they said that they have not received the case from USCIS. :crying: I dont know how many more months should i wait,,, but all the websites says that the VSC process completes in 5 months. My mind was set that i'll receive it in 5 months,, but now wen i see the last updated date am totally depressed :wacko:

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsVermont Behind Schedule on K1

Even though some people who have February NOA1 dates have gotten approval, VSC is still behind schedule. I spoke to someone on Friday, 10 Aug and they told me they were on January 16th. It is hard to speak to a live person. The trick is to push the option that says "are you experiencing technical problems with system". That will get you a live person. Then say they that you did not hear the option you were looking for. Their priority seems to me (1) military (2) people who have never filed K1 before and all documents are correct (3) all others. I fall in the all others category because I filed K1, 4 years ago and then the lying girl informed me the night before her medical exam that she was pregnant with another man's child. Some of them you just can't trust no matter how much they say they love you.



No there is no such priority,, all k1 cases are same.. my fiance is in army,, we dont see any priorities. When he called uscis last week he received the same message that they were on January 16th.

My husband's visa was denied and he was very sad and depressed. I was more angry than anything else. What we did is take a cooling off period of 2 weeks. For that period of time we didn't talk about the visa or think about it. After the 2 weeks were up we talked about what we should do. I could move to Pakistan or we could wait for a chance to appeal. We decided to wait for a chance to appeal. When the time came we won our appeal.

I'm telling you all this to say I understand you being sad and depressed but you and your fiance need to take some time off from visa stuff then come back and decide what you want to do. Don't rush into anything. Give it some time to see what happens with your petition. If you decide to go there and get married front-load your CR-1 petition with pictures, emails, chat logs, etc.



we had all our pictures, emails, skype history, even our engagement pictures. How long did it take you after your appeal and was successful? it has been 14 months since i first applied for it. just the idea of another 14 months is so depressing, but thx for ur support....

Csc lets all returned petitions expire. Vsc sometimes reaffirms. It may take 6-8 months to hear from uscis if you hear anything at all. Keep gathering proof that you are bona fide and refile a k1 or marry and file a cr1.



what is CSC and VSc? Should I be calling USCIS or just wait? when you say refile, are you talking about doing everything all over again and should i be doing this even before i hear anything from USCIS? Should i be sending more proof to USCIS or just gather it and wait?

Thank you....

so sad:(

The code is standart refusal for their findings of not bona fide at your embassy. They use the labor cert code which is stupid but a fact. You dont need a lawyer to tell you the same thing based on the info you shared.



my fiance told me the man who interviewed him didn't even looked at our engagement pictures, or any of our letters, skype history, or anything. I am so sad and depress.

There are a host of grounds for an alien being ineligible to receive visas and inadmissible to enter the USA.

What issue(s) did your fiancé have? And what box did they check as the reason for ineligibility/inadmissibility?



They checked section 212(a)(5)A.

My fiance got a letter saying he was found ineligible to receive visa due to section 212(a)(5)A. I am so stress out and I don't know what we should be doing next. They didn't even give him anything else on what to do next. Delhi embassy says there is nothing they can do over the waiver application process and the case has been sent to USCIS. I am so confuse on what to do next. Am i suppose to just wait till USCIS writes us back and how long are we suppose to wait? I don't even know why they denied his visa because we had all our papers accordingly, but my fiance did say the man who interview him didn't even look at our pictures and letters.

Please help. Anyone else having this issue?

Thank You
ten

We have a case complete as of August 7th. I found out by phone but haven't received an e-mail confirmation yet. How do I find out when the documents are sent to the embassy in Brussels? And will we really have to wait until September for an interview?

Mexico, Latin & South AmericaBirth Certificates submitted to USCIS - Literal / Long Version??

Hi, I'm hoping someone can help answer this question. I've been searching these forums and can't really seem to find anything talking about which version of birth certificate USCIS will accept.

 

My fiance is planning on traveling to the US on her K1 visa and recently picked up a few extra copies of her birth certificate so we can use them for the AOS package. When she picked them up from the registro they asked if she wanted the literal / long form or not. She just said the normal (not long) version would be fine since that's what we submitted with our interview package. Since the interview was in Costa Rica I don't see any problem with them accepting the "short" version but what exactly does USCIS want?

 

I didn't even know there were different versions of birth certificates. All I know is that mine (US citizen) states the exact place and time of birth with both my parents names and their places of birth. To me that sounds like a long version and I'm not sure what USCIS expects.

 

Has anyone else gone through this? Which form did you submit? I appreciate any help on this issue. Thanks!

 

Birth Certificates

You (and any family members immigrating with you to the United States) must obtain an original birth certificate issued by the official custodian of birth records in your country of birth, showing your date of birth, place of birth, and parentage.

Important Notice: All Immigrant Visa applicants must submit a long form original birth certificate. Short form birth certificates will not be accepted.

The certificate must contain the:

  • Your date of birth
  • Your place of birth
  • Names of both parents
  • Indication by the appropriate authority that it is an extract from the official records

Unobtainable birth certificates

If your birth record is not obtainable for any reason, a certified statement must be obtained from the appropriate government authority explaining why your birth record is unavailable. You must also submit secondary evidence such as:

  • A baptismal certificate that contains the date and place of birth, as well as both parents names (providing the baptism took place shortly after birth)
  • An adoption decree for an adopted child
  • An affidavit from a close relative, preferably your mother, stating the date and place of birth, both parents names, and your mother?s maiden name.

Note: An affidavit executed before an official authorized to take oaths or affirmations must also be provided. More specific information is available from the NVC.

Birth Certificates

Available. The civil registry of San Jose (Registro Civil) issues certificates of all births in Costa Rica subsequent to January 1, 1888, the date the registry was established. Births prior to that date may be evidenced by a baptismal certificate (Fe de Bautismo) issued by an ecclesiastical authority of the Roman Catholic Church. There may be a fee for this service. If a birth subsequent to that date is found not to be recorded in the Civil Registry, it may usually be recorded therein on the basis of a certification from the civil or ecclesiastical authorities of the place of birth.

This certificate, consisting of a full copy of the entry in the registry, is typed on fiscal paper, headed by the name and title of the issuing official, and bears a revenue stamp.

Asia: East and PacificMedical in Malaysia

Hi,

 

I am wondering how long will it take for the medical to be done up until I get the medical report?

 

Do they send the medical report to the embassy or do I have to take it myself and bring it during the interview?

 

Can I do the medical a few days before the interview so I can do it all while I am in KL?

 

I know it's a long way to go for me but I live in Sabah and I believe that they don't have any authorised panel physician here in Sabah. sad.png I will have to fly to either KL or Kuching. If it's possible, I don't want to be flying back and forth and I don't even have that much leave left from work. crying.gif

 

I appreciate all the answers and please move my thread to the Malaysian portal. I don't know how to make a new thread at the Malaysian portal.

 

3 injection + blood test + X-ray cost me RM420. try to have the medical examination as soon as possible, at least 2 weeks before your interview date. i did mine in Bangunan Ming, KL.

 

it took 7 days for my report to get ready.

It just means they haven't processed the DS-3032. 

 

If they don't do it by monday night, I would send another DS-3032 email with supervisor review in the title.
