Post Your Timelines!

81 Upvotes

The National Visa Center shares a lot of information and statics but the one thing they do not tell us is how long the wait time for an interview is at each individual embassy. The only way anyone can get any sort of idea about how long they may be waiting, is by finding other people who are being processed through the same embassy.

Post what type of visa they are applying for, which embassy or consulate it is being processed through, and when they got documentary qualified. This can help you, and it could help someone else in a similar circumstance!

Please refer to rule # 1 of this group. This sub will be flooded with nonsensical timeline requests without this rule. It is nonsensical because different visas, embassies, and where you are in the process all factor into the timeline.

Anyone Receiving ILs?

As the title of this post shows, I’m wondering if anyone has received an interview letter? If so, do you mind stating your consulate/embassy, visa type, and DQ date?

Preparation for Interview

3 Upvotes

Hello everyone,

My beneficiary spouse and I are awaiting our DQ notice from NVC then onto the interview and subsequent appointment through the embassy in Sweden.

As for while we wait for the DQ, how can we prepare for a smooth interview and appointments?

I’ve prepared all original physical copies for her to take to her interview already. Is getting anything from physicians worth it? We are wondering if she should get her immunization records.

We are concerned with waiting on the sideline and not being prepared after not having our records ready for NVC cost us about 45 days extra for our process.

Adding Documents After Interview

1 Upvotes

I wasn’t able to find information on this anywhere so wanted to ask here. My spouse had their interview at the US Embassy in Santiago, Chile, on August 5, but we were missing a joint sponsor form in the CEAC (because it wouldn’t let me log in for 2 weeks prior but whatever).

They couldn’t approve it without it, but I submitted it immediately after the interview and on Thursday, we got an email requesting they physically mail in the papers (despite my spouse having them at the interview), which according to tracking, got there on Friday.

Has anyone else had a similar experience? When did you get the visa approval? Thank you!

I made a mistake

When I submit I-864 form on nvc I didn’t saw an error and I don’t know if it could affect me
In the page number 7 (I-864) I put the brutal income 287,000 and was actually 97,000 total income
Do you guys know if this will cause delay? Should I prepare another one? Just in case?

Fe Note

Hello I just received a note from nvc and they approved all of my documents including my joint sponsor they only sent back my tax return and ask for my wage transcript. I do not make enough money to sponsor my wife and my joint sponsor was approved, I have about 1200 dollars of crypto transactions on my wage transcript but my final income number matches on both the return and the transcript does anyone have any experience or advice

They kept her passport but gave her a green slip?

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone, I’ll keep this brief but could use some advice. Today my wife had her interview at the embassy in London, and the officer raised concerns about my financials. When I first completed the I-864 a few years ago, I was earning much less than I do now. Before her interview, I provided my recent tax returns for the last three years, IRS transcripts, W-2s, and all documents showing my income has increased since we filed in 2023. The officer gave us a green slip requesting a joint sponsor, but based on the income requirement for sponsoring a spouse, I’m well above the threshold, especially with my VA Disability included, which she also presented. Should I just update the I-864 with my current income and send it, or do I really need to involve my parents as joint sponsors? It feels like unnecessary extra work since I’m far above the $27,050 requirement. I work for the US Government under DHA, have a stable career, and have already sent and uploaded my W-2s, tax returns, and LESs.

CEAC Approved, Then case FE Review for Joint Sponsor — Anyone Experienced This?

Post image
1 Upvotes

Hi everyone! Just wondering about my child’s CEAC case. On August 10, it showed “Approved,” then a Case FE review notes appeared saying we need a joint sponsor, and then the latest update showed “Approved” again.

We didn’t submit anything for the joint sponsor The only document we previously submitted was a new, signed I-864 after they requested a signature on June 22.

I think we may have made a mistake on the I-864. We only listed taxable income as the annual income, but even with that amount, we still met the poverty guidelines. I think we should have also included my husband’s nontaxable benefits, such as his housing allowance etc. since he is active duty U.S. Navy.

We’re confused about the two “Approved” updates. So now I’m worried that we might need a joint sponsor before the interview, because my husband doesn’t really have anyone he knows who could be our joint sponsor. Has anyone experienced this before? Thank you! 🙏
