Tax transcripts are free smile.png

Thanks! :)  If i only knew, I would've ordered my transcripts weeks ago.  Now i wonder where i read that transcripts are 50 bucks for each year.

regarding irs tax transcripts.  I just requested for mine for the last 3 years using the IRS website.  From what i was reading, there's supposed to be a fee right? But it looks like they're not charging anything. Did I request for the right forms?  Or are they really supposed to be free? I got my request from http://www.irs.gov/I...er-a-Transcript . Thanks

called NVC today and they said they received our petition today, woohoo.  They said call in 10-20 days for them to assign a case number.  We're in no rush, Im just curious if it really takes them 20 days to assign a number after receiving it?

Yup!

 

Case number should be written on the top right of all documents (except the bar-coded cover sheet and cover letter) for both packages. The purpose of this is in case a paper gets lost, it can easily find its way back to the case if it has the case number on it.

 

 

 

Yes that is a good idea - that way if for some reason a page gets misplaced they know exactly which file it goes with. -

 

Saylin ya beat me to it!

:ot: Just a side note - you can go into settings and hide comments/messages from specific users  :content:

 

 

 

Oh sweet memories. I remember when I got my case# I ordered  a rubber stamp ( I had extra evidence to send in. 1291 pages worth).

 

So yes you should write on every page (Not the original documents (write on a sticky note case# and attach.

 

Thankies!!! :).  Time to update my timeline :).  DS-260 completed, IV packet sent 3/28/2014.   Another step closer, woohoo!

I-130 petitions filed for a Filipino beneficiary, regardless of current residence, are being transferred. Will the service centers be sorting them out to process only those from the affected areas? This remains to be seen.

 

either way we're just hoping it doesn't get lost during the transfer.  we're expecting 8-12 months, and we've planned next few months with that in mind.

Waivers (I-601 and I-212) and Administrative Processes (221g)221 G administrative processing?!
My husband has had his interview on October 2012 in Mumbai and the counselor gave him a 222 g white form saying its a administrative processing. With no further explanation. My husband has been waiting since then until today for his visa to be issued but there has been no reply from them. Please, if anyone else is in the same shoes as I am or knows anything about this give me some advice. I am waiting for my husband in Chicago, and we have been married for 2 years now. I've been going to India to visit him but I need to return to Chicago for my education.

Waivers (I-601 and I-212) and Administrative Processes (221g)CEAC being updated everyday but still AP

Usually my case would be updated after 5-6pm Afghanistan time but in recent days it has been updating right when the embassy opens daily around 9am.  Is that a good thing? Im heading into my 7th month in AP.  I dont know what is taking so long, if they were to deny my case they would have done so right away but It is still pending.  Usually they take long time on the male visas but i am a female and have been waiting for so long. 

If your status is being updated, its a good sign. It means they are reviewing it. But administrative Processing is a horrible long process that needs patience and you need to be hopeful. You need to wait and be patient because they wont ever tell you why you are on AP. But since  you have a CEAC website you can check your status online, and its good that you receive updates. They WILL contact you for sure once its over trust me! Just be patient!

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsSTILL IN ADMINISTRATIVE PROCESS?!

My husband had his second interview in US consulate Mumbai, and his case status was updated on the CEAC website today, after the second interview. He submitted his passport THANK GOD ALMIGHTY! I am so happy about that. But what Iam concerned about is the fact that it says "Administrative Processing" on the CEAC website, even after he just submitted his passport. 

 Does anyone know why that is there? 

Thanks

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsExpedite request??

How will I know if they approved my expedite for my I-130?? I called the 1800 number today they don't know if it's been approved or not???

You just need to be patient. Nothing you do will help you. The USCIS and NVC CENTER never expedites anything. All you can do is be patient, and let them do the work, you can create a website on CEAC.gov once your I130 is approved, and just wait and see what happens, because they take their time.

Is it allowed to travel while your on a immigration case? Did you submit your passport? If not, I did not know that you can travel while you are an applicant.

Do I need to contact the Nvc or the counselate for making a change? Should I let them know that I've been married for 2 years and I want to request a change in the visa category?

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & ProceduresCR-1 change to IR-1
Hello , I am an american citizen. I applied for CR1 visa for my husband in October 2011. He had his interview in October 2012. Since then he has been put under 221g admin. Process.
We have been now married for 2 years and I am wondering if my visa category will change to IR1 since we are married for 2 years.
When I filed for him we were newly married so that's why his visa category was CR1. If anyone knows or has any information regarding this issue please give me some answers.
Thank you for reading.

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & ProceduresSECOND INTERVIEW AFTER ADMINISTRATIVE PROCESS?

hello, my husband had his interview in Mumbai embassy on OCT-11-2012, and the CO put him on admin. process until today he is on the process,  but he has his white 221 g slip with him. Now he received a letter...ut says that they want him to do medical report and new police certificate again, with new DS 230 form. THey asked him to come to Mumbai to submit those forms. WHAT does this mean? He has a second interview and I am concerned because he was already on Admin. PRocess for 1 year. Does this mean they will issue him the U.S visa? We have been married for 2 years and I am an American born citizen.

 

Thank you so much
