IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsNVC Filers - May 2014

I was checking out the case complete/interview spread sheet yesterday... Unfortunately there aren't many Costa Rica files.  Have you looked at the spreadsheet to try and get an idea of how fast an interview might be scheduled based on other filers? 
 
I think ( maybe its just me) that the interview should be scheduled at the same time the case complete happens.  Why does everything have to be such a friggin process?   one step.... wait.... second step.... wait more.....checklist.... delay and more waiting.....case complete.... wait some more....
 
 
 I also think that the NVC stage should be thrown out.  Why can't all of this happen at the USCIS stage or just combine all of this mess?




no there wasn't much people last month i saw 2 or 3 people got interview schedule April 8 and 9 and
I think I am the only one in visajourney who is waiting for interview schedule in bangladesh

Removing Conditions on Residency General DiscussionDid BIOMETRICS a month ago but it is not confirmed online
QUOTE (helpneeded @ Mar 4 2009, 10:46 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
We did a walk in a week earlier than the appointment last month. We received a stamped recognition paper at USCIS but it is not updated or touched online. I called and they could not find it either- will this delay our approval? They said not to worry that we only filed in Jan. and this is ok but it does not seem very efficient- it should be updated online in real time- this is 2009! The whole process is very frustrating. After all the waiting I thought we were in the home stretch and I was shocked that it takes another year+ to simply get the conditions removed after we did absolutely everything right and provided dozens of pages of supporting documentation- a year is a hell of a long time! They can verify your information at the border in 5 minutes- why does it have to take so long? I've read that they do a background check- what is so complicated- what exactly do they check (criminal record?- anything else?) For employment, these only take 3-5 working days. I understand there is a backlog but still they are dealing with peoples lives here. Ironically, you can
purchase a home in 3 weeks- yet removing conditions takes over a year...doesn't make sense.

Also, a little off topic but can we travel (more importantly return)? She does not have a passport and the date on her temporary green card shows expired (yet extended for 1 year via the paper we have). It is valid to get a DL and to work so will it work for readmission to the US from the Bahamas? (short 3 day cruise).



THANK YOU!


Do not travel without a valid passport. There is another question like this in another forum

Removing Conditions on Residency General DiscussionApproved for 10 yr GC without biometrics or interview
QUOTE (simplylaura @ Mar 4 2009, 11:59 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
I sent out all my stuff to CSC in December 2008. In January, I got a letter saying my application was received and is being processed. My green card was extended for a year and that I would get another letter for biometrics. I kept waiting and waiting for the biometrics appointment. Then I got this most recent letter (see attachment) that said I was approved. Is this too good to be true? I'm almost afraid to be happy thinking that it might be a mistake. Has this happened to anyone else?

I went through a divorce last year and had to petition for myself based on a bonafied marriage. This situation alone made me weary about the process and whether I would be approved or not. I was planning to be in this for the long haul. I'm still cautious about this news and just wanted to see what everyone else thinks.


Congrats!

Removing Conditions on Residency General DiscussionJust got the email; card production ordered
QUOTE (murebo @ Mar 18 2009, 01:38 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
I am overjoyed. I faithfully scan this site everyday and this site was a tremendous help when I filed for ROC.
I just got the approval email and I should recieve the card any day now.
Time line: Sent I751 to TSC in April 25 2008
Recieved notice it was transfered to VSC on April 28 2008
Touched 2/22/09
Card production ordered march 18 09

It was a long wait. I lost my dad when my card expired and had to travel with the extension. I had no issues though. I plan on tavelling again soon and am glad I do not have to worry anymore. Will apply for citizenship soon. I hope the journey will not be as long.


Congrats, you need to officially update your timeline in the Timeline section of your profile. Again Congratulations!!! wow.gif kicking.gif

Removing Conditions on Residency General DiscussionIs this what 'touched' means...?
QUOTE (Paul @ Apr 3 2009, 05:55 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
I sent my I-751 to TSC last May ('08) and have heard nothing since the NOA (which was sent one day later) and the biometrics (which was one month later).

Checking on this forum, some people told me it would have since been transferred to VSC (though obviously the USCIS website mysteriously omits to mention anything of the sort when I log on to check the status- and as I was idly looking today I noticed the case was last updated on 2/22/2009 (not that I got sent the e-mail alert I'd signed up for... but maybe that's not supposed to generate an e-mail?).

When I click on the case it still says

"This case is now pending at the office to which it was transferred."

Anyway- can I read anything into this 'update'? Or should I sit tight for an even longer wait?


yes Paul you were "touched"

Removing Conditions on Residency General DiscussionSon Filed In June to Remove Conditions and Got a 1 Year Extension

1-year Extension is a period he waits for ROC results (RFE/ Approval/ Denial/ Interview) everyone has it after sending in I-751. He can continue to work, travel with expired GC and that letter.

 

To track your case, you need another case number in biometrics appointment letter coming after extension letter. Please read what it says.

Thank you for responding Miriam&Smith.  At this point my son cannot track his case as he did not receive a biometric appointment and, as such, no case number. Again, thank you for responding. :)

Removing Conditions on Residency General DiscussionSon Filed In June to Remove Conditions and Got a 1 Year Extension

Hi Vjers,

 

My son got married in 2011 and his paperwork was done in 2012. It took him 9 weeks to be approved which was super quick - June 21 sent off application and August 29th approved through interview! He sent in his removal of conditions the first week of June in this year and he received his I 797 notifying him that they have received his application and have given him a 1 year extension on his conditional residency. He also received a sticker to put on his GC as verification. Also, even though he has a receipt number, it cannot be found on the USCIS website. He will be eligible to file for citizenship next year, so what is this one year extension? Has anyone gone through this before?

Removing Conditions on Residency General DiscussionConfuse... Thinking to file N-400 but i had a K2 Follow to Join year 2012...

Hello, not been here for a long time... but i am really confuse on how to do this i hope someone can give me infos. regarding my quiry... i came here as a K1 Visa  year 2011 and then after 9 mons. had a K2 FTJ year 2012.. now that i will gonna file my N-400 soon i don't know if my K2 (minor) will automatically be a USC too...  or he needs to file his ROC next year ( his 2 yrs. GC will expire next year).... and file his own N-400.... hope someone can enlighten me, your help is greatly appreciated. Thank u!

The information below is from the USCIS website and it is in regard to removing conditions. I think you will have to file an application to remove conditions from conditional GC holding K2 to GC first. If K2 is still under 18 after you become a citizen, then I believe that he/she becomes an automatic citizen based on his/her age and your citizenship status.

Your Child?s Conditional Green Card

If your child received conditional resident status within 90 days of when you did, then your child may be included in your application to remove the conditions on permanent residence. Your child must file a separate I-751 application if your child received conditional resident status more than 90 days after you did.


kcoyclay1FemaleJamaica2014-09-01 00:38:00
Removing Conditions on Residency General Discussioni-751petition/timeline

My son sent in his in May and got a 1-yr extension letter without even a biometrics date. Another friend did the same and received biometrics date but still did not receive any other status update. Two days before her GC would have expired she went to the Application Support Center and they gave her a 1 year extension. 

 

Interview depends on the case. If the ISO thinks that after two years there is no significant amount of ties to indicate that the marriage is authentic, they can chose to interview.

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsPhilippines expedite case will help June, July, august fillers

I think After 1 month they do not have any more Philippines cases to approved in the future. They are approving their cases fast right now.

 So June to August filler already have 20% ( Philippines) cases approved in by month of December.

So June to Aug fillers cases will transfer or go to the NVC soon.

What do you think guys?

Any suggestion?

You don't always receive a denial of an expedite request. It's possible they are still evaluating the situation, but more likely your expedite was denied.

 

But if they denied that why they are not giving any answer on the phone.

They told me that it's in under renew process.

Nothing else.
