IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & Proceduresbefor my interview they give me so much paper pleas help
Hey souf I think its time to give this a rest. You're not listening to any thing you're told. Perhaps this is what happened at the consulate too. Try spending more time with your wife and when you're ready to hear the real deal come back to VJ.

Hi Sou-

It says they sent your case back. Try having your wife come to this website for help. You've posted many topics where you keep asking the same thing over and over and you're going to get the same response and getting no where :whistle:

Nobody knows the reason here.

From what you told us here:

She's older then you.

She has a daughter who does not talk to you.

You did not know anything about her diploma.

You met online from a social website.

You probably had some communication problems with the Consular Officer.

I'm sure there are some more red flags that you did not mention yet.

Has your wife come to this website? Perhaps she can gain some knowledge here.

hi everybody i went to doctore today becaus i could not eat like 2 day ago and that because they refusing my CR1 VISA i have some question and i wish to found the answers pelas

1 is the fomre show that they refusing the visa or just they want more information


2 if my wife call the senator do you all think that will help us


3 do you think it good to cancel the application and have a new one or leave it like that till the uscis got my application and see what will happend


4if my wife will send letter to uscis every week that will help or nop


i wish you all help me pleas pleas pleas



First you need to calm down, let the anger go because as you see it's making you sick !


1- You did not get denied, they are sending the petition to USCIS to make the next decision. A visa is not allowed right now.

2-Your wife should have her Senator/Congressman make inquiries in the case. It may help and may not but nothing to loose if trying.

3-Do not cancel the petition, you filed as married so they will have to review it eventually.

4-Sending letters every week is probably going to get on their nerves and could slow down the review.


Again- You need to CALM DOWN :bonk:you will make yourself more sick. You haven't lost your wife!

A lawyer is not going to help, just take the money. Have you tried contacting the Chief Consular? You're looking at at least a year for a review once it comes back to USCIS.

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & ProceduresK1 Denial & Trip to the Consular

I think the CO's decisions are arbitrary. My friend's friend from Morocco just got approved for a K1 finace visa in Morocco from a women he met online from Ohio. She never even met him in person until 1 week before the interview. They spent absolutely no time together and he was approved. The time together doesn't matter if it did they should have been denied. They met on the internet we met in person. They were approved. I was denied. She went to the interview. I didn't. I think I made the fatal mistake of not being there.


I wouldn't believe that story. They had to have met in person prior to filing the fiance visa otherwise USCIS would not have approved the petition.

You are dealing with the US Consulate. There have been cases where the consulate officer has called family to verify the relationship, especially from a MENA country.:yes:

You could have a problem with the above in red. That's a big red flag.

Do you have a age difference too? Is your wife older than you?

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & ProceduresAfter K1 denied

The lady who interviewed my husband was the one who said: call her and tell her to come to marry you here in Egypt, he told me she didn't asked too many questions, she asked why I was there just for a week, and he explained to her because of the situation of the country, I went there in January 2011, 5 days after I came back to US, they had the revolution at Tahrir, and when he said that to her, she kept asking stupid questions like: how did you knew they will have a protest there?, are you like a CIA agent?

I don't know what it's a red flag, thanks for your message, and help. Posted Image



There's a red flag right here: "she asked why I was there just for a week" That means you had a short stay for your first visit. Just meeting in person for 5 days and then filing for a fiance visa is most likely a red flag to a Consulate Officer.

Do you have an age difference?
Did you meet his family?
Have you been married before? Have kids?
Your religion?

Not to be rude, but your chances of getting a tourist visa are very slim. You probably would have a better chance of visiting the moon star_smile.gif If I were you I would take advantage of your free time now and prepare for that special day....the interview. Many folks here can tell you, including myself, that the Moroccan Consulate is a tough one.

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & ProceduresTraveling question....
Hi Mishadi,

No, your husband does not have to come to your country and take you back to enter the states. Once you receive your visa you will receive a sealed envelope which you cannot open...you will take this with you once you enter the states and hand it to the immigration officer at the Port of Entry. Your husband does not have to be with you unless you want him to be.... :)

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & ProceduresCR1 visa interview
Hi rawd,

I am no expert on this, but I will share my experience and let you be the judge...

My husband came to visit me 3 times (1-2 week long visits) in 2010...on the 3rd visit (Dec 2010) we got married. We had our interview in October 2011 and had not seen each other since due to my crazy work schedule and $$$. At the interview they said they did not doubt the relationship and they had everything they needed (we were put in AP, but I am certain that is for name checks and not for any doubt of our relationship) - I had submitted a lot of evidence w/our initial I-130 including excerpts from love letters and photos and our joint bank account info... I think if you submit enough other evidence proving that your relationship is valid and you feel comfortable, then I wouldn't worry too much...there are always complications - and flying around the world is not easy for everyone...I finally was able to make a trip to meet my husband about a week ago - it had been almost a year and a half since we had last seen each other! Good Luck!

Hi everyone!


Hope all is well.


Jus asking this question for a friend of mines. His wife is here from guyana on an i-130 visa and they want to travel to Georgia. Her greencard has no arrived yet....can she travel without it once its within the US? hmmmm can the visa being stamped in the passport serve the same purpose as the greencard being that its within the US?


Thanks so much for your attention to the matter.

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & ProceduresIs there a website where you can pay US$2000 to get CR1 done in a month's time?
Most definitely a scan.
ckel11310MaleSouth Korea2012-07-05 10:09:00
IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & ProceduresAfter cr1 visa holder arrives to USA....

when he comes through the POE -

his passport will get ANOTHER stamp in it, sometimes referred to as an 'I-551 stamp' -

which validates his VISA stamp to be utilized as a

temporary green card (up to one year duration) .

so that 'extra stamp' on POE date, effectively is a 'temporary green card'.

re: SSN - regardless of what is ticked on the DS-230 - strongly suggest going in to SSA office on day 15, past the POE date, and apply - ask clerk to look him up in the SAVE database with either his name or A# (printed on the visa stamp)

If they can't find him in the SAVE system, don't fret then - come back in a week, apply again, do NOT accept any processing at SSA for 'DHS/USCIS electronic verfication' - that's a frickin boondoggle, a huge waste of time.

Oh ok.So will wait 15 days from his arrival and go to SS office and apply there..in case he won't be in the system,do they have any other option beside this electronic thing???

[quote name='tokyo.lovers' timestamp='1283217093' post='4163131']
if you don't get your SSC or GC in the mail after a few weeks you have to go to the SS office and request an SSC.
and if you don't get the GC or welcome letter after 30 days or something you have to contact USCIS.

after you have the GC and SSN you should be good to work or anything.
most employers may not let you work until you have the physical GC i think.


Don't know,my husband will ask tomorrow when he goes to pick up his visa,if stamp is ok as a proof to get ssn or id...anyway,it's going to take week or two for him to get situated,even though when i came to US I went to wrk after 5 days :( Don't remember how I had my GC so fast,maybe i 've got mine while in my country still,really don't remember..but i do remember going the very next day into local ss office getting ssn :)
Oh well...we'll see,what's most important is that we are finally done with this and can finally start our marriage and our normal life together w/o limitations in time(like when you visit and it's time to leave and it's heartbreaking...) so...little by little things will fall into places.But it was tough.it really was.

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & ProceduresAfter cr1 visa holder arrives to USA....

It is the same site. After your beneficiary provides the unopened sealed visa envelope (got from the Consulate) to the POE officer, they enter the information in the system and forwards to the USCIS office. So, when you enter your Receipt/Approval number after the above process, you can see "Card Ordered/Production".

Happy?

Loto



You welcome, mystic :star:

yeeeeees,very happy! :)))) Well I didn't know the procedure,NOW I KNOW! THANX

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & ProceduresAfter cr1 visa holder arrives to USA....

After Port of Entry, it normally takes 4 weeks to get the plastic GC.
SSN also comes in the same period. If you don't get by then, go to SS office to apply one with GC and other required documents of SS-5 form.

You can track your GC at USCIS website with the case#.

Loto


Sorry to bother you,but where at USCIS??? I know I went to-check my status with that first number(three letters and numbers) but that one is only for status of your case.Where do I check GC at USCIS site? The same thing,or is it different title/question to check for GC? I noticed thay even shortened those DOTS for case,before they had like 6 or so ,now there only 4..so I assume it's not that :)
Lovebirds2009Female02010-08-29 22:12:00
IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & ProceduresAfter cr1 visa holder arrives to USA....

He will get GC at petitioner's address.
If you have checked to get new SSN in DS-230, they will mail it out. If it takes longer time, you can go to nearest SS office with the GC, fill out SS-5 form and apply.
He can get the job with GC and SSN. Employer will ask him to fill out I-9 form.

Happy re-union!
Loto


THANK YOU! Do you know by any chance how long does it take for GC to arrive after his visa was approved? Is it based on approval date or what?
And how long should we wait for soc sec to come,because some people told me hey waited and waited and finally had to go to ss office,do you think we should wait or as soon as we have GC on hand,just go to the office and apply for it????

I can't believe it is taking so long...We filed at the CSC on Nov 8th then on March 28th I got a text saying that our file was forwarded to the NBC and then nothing.

I called them this week informing them that I am outside the normal processing time and she said that my case had been sent to the local office and then the local office sent it back to the service center. She said usaully it gets sent to the local office for a petitioner interview but sometimes not always it gets sent back to the service center with a report from the local office. So how long do I have to wait now :crying:

Yeserday's update says:

The I130 IMMIGRANT PETITION FOR RELATIVE, FIANCE(E), OR ORPHAN was transferred and is now being processed at a USCIS office. You will be notified by mail when a decision is made, or if the office needs something from you. If you move while this case is pending, please use our Change of Address online tool to update your case with your new address or call our customer service center at 1-800-375-5283.

they at atleast looking at your petition...i am NOV 8 filer...i requested for "service request" but they told me that i'm still under processing time frame...which is ridiculous...hang in there...all we could do is wait..
