[@YousufIman]

I am Yousuf Ali,from Pakistan,resident of Qatar,already contacted your Law firm for my case processing time. Thanks for all your efforts you are doing for guidance.

[@Soulful_Tilawat]

[@seandillingersr.207]

My wife has been waiting for US Embassy in Philippines to give NVC a visa interview appointment since May 10th, 2024. It should not take that long a parent visa petitioned by àmerican child.

[@christenemendonca168]

Congratulations with ur firm… keep up the great work!!

[@KaoriRead]

Sir I guess the problem is the consulate embassy not the nvc

[@akuaboat46]

The US Embassy in Ghana is very slow. Been waiting for a spousal interview for my husband. We are DQd since September 2023 and I am a US citizen. Its unbearable this waiting.

[@delwertman1774]

[@ncallis3031]

I never heard on KZbin your comments on which embassies are the slowest...

[@FindingGod365]

Thanks so much for all you do!!

[@leoht27]

Hi ! Best Regards ! What about Colombia Embassy?

[@FG42]

I read the senate immigration deal. It doesn’t seem to do any favours for fb visas. On 304-305? Wherever it starts, an extra 32k for each of the next 5 years to be rolled over until they are consumed. The only problem is that the DoS is never going to get to 226k so those extra visas will just remain on the books while 10s of thousands of fb visas get rolled down to eb. There is still no requirement for the DoS to issue the 226k visas.

My I-130 case status changed to "Case is Actively Reviewed by USCIS" on OCT. 27, 2023. When I can expect next update and What update it could be?.

[@garapatikasiviswanadh2094]

Can I expect change in status in March?.

[@KarnailBrar-b1v]

My case is F4 India. My PD is 1 August 2006 which has very long waiting. It is not moving since long. The main problem for India FB cases, the only one Embassy is taking interviews for Family based cases. Actually the US Govt must allow Delhi Embassy and also o in ther 4 to conduct the family based immigration interviews so that backlog is cleared earlier. Pl try to send my request to US Govt to start immediately FB cases interviews in all the Embassy offices in India.

our k1 visa case is still at nvc status for five months.
