Nobody concerned about it. But family petitioners must be concerned about their family members. If they make a campaign before USA election. Random question every state senator for immigration reform and increase yearly visa Cap. For family immigration. Then they maybe something happen .

Thank you very much. That was an outstanding commentary on the I-130🙏🏾

شكرا لك سيدتي

I just spoke with USCIS. in order to file I-130, the foreign new spouse of a US citizen CANNOT FILE 1-130 until they themselves are US citizens, taking minimum two years. Again, according to USCIS. Also, not all embassies are the same. In South Africa, for example, it is not staffed by Americans, but by South Africans and they are not, shall we say, efficient as Americans might be. Incredibly slow process. Not 3-4 months. More like 2.5 years.

Should I just go ahead and complete the two cases that are already at the NVC ? Will the other 3 cases just be pulled into NVC ? Should I just wait for the other 3 cases to be sent to the NVC before completing the next steps that would be required by the NVC ?

I waited and two more were approved. Apparently the last laggard case started processing 5 months after the others. WOW. Immigration lawyers would likely want to delay the process as they benefit the longer the overall process takes. The actual proper advice, which the lawyer won't give you, is to go forward with the approved ones and wait on the other one since there is only one left. Of course, consult with your immigration attorney, as I CANNOT provide legal advice.

For May 2024 visa bulletin, not unless your petition (priority date) for your siblings were before 01MAR08 (DATES FOR FILING), your (their) case would still be with the USCIS and in that case, you wouldn’t hear anything about it. It’s only when it’s before that date, that your case will be forwarded to the NVC at that point which you’ll get a notification from the NVC about it to proceed to gather and submit relevant docs for the case. And when it’s before 22JUL07 (FINAL ACTION DATES), then it will proceed to move from the NVC to what I’m thinking will be the Accra embassy for visa appointment. But given recent situation at the embassy, it may also take a while before your siblings get an appointment date. The visa bulletin is published monthly and usually not difficult to interpret. Hope this helps..

As of May 2024 Visa bulletin, the final action date for f2B is April 1, 2016 which indicates the date for when your case moves from the NVC to your local consulate office. So given your PD is Oct 2016, should there be another movement in your category such as what was seen from April to May 2024, you should get a notification for visa appointment in two months. But this is subject to visa availability and several factors that even NVC is unable to predict well in advance. The final date for your visa interview is also subject to the pace and performance of your local embassy in Nairobi. So there really isn’t a definite prediction anyone can give. There are times there is no movement and can remain so for several months. So just keep your fingers crossed.

Hi Ms Mcbean, I applied for my adult children when LPR since became a US Citizen. I submitted all documents and fees ; waiting for interview date that never came, now NVC is asking me to repay and resubmitted documents because i have not been in touch for a year of notice of visa availability. I did the inqiry and was told ì have to redo all that. Doesnt make sense since we are DQ and waiting for them to schedule the interview. I know if you dont apply within a year of notice you can be terminated but not the way they saying it now. How do I now proceed because they asking for phone records, email or some form which not logical. N VC should let the public know if this is a new rule they have because millions of people could be affected.Please advice the way forward.
