For K3 visa, the consulate has to be in his home country or the country where you two got married. So he has to return to Libya for the visa interview.

So you can send out the I-129F today, with the I-130 receipt (I-797 NOA). You don't need to wait for I-130 approval.

If the H1 denial reason is "US citizens are loosing jobs because of recessions" for a non-H1B dependent employer or you are exempt, it should be easy to appeal and have the decision reversed.

It is possible for such RFE, to either show J1 waiver approval or demonstrate that you stayed in Canada for total 2 years or more after J1 ended (I assume you have been Canadian citizen since before 2000). The 2 years home (in your case: canada) stay time can be aggregated, so any time between July 2002 and 2009 that you were in Canada can be counted toward the two years.

You cannot claim SS money if you are a foreigner living overseas when after age 65.

Most of Indian IT professional probably attained or close to 40 points already(depending on income) that gets eligibility for SS benefits.

Is gov worrying ..
-- that lot of people would claim SS money and go back home country instead of waiting until retirement here?
-- Any SS money related factors(keep generate SS money but don't let claim back with LPR etc..) involved behind and trying to keep waiting for 10yrs w/o simply increasing numbers?
-- Worrying, If all Indian people would become citizens in 5 yrs with voting right and influence politics here?

There could be some hidden factors that are not known to people out..never know..

Your kid is international student, but s/he doesn't need the university's F1 sponsorship.

So the EB principal's approved GC was recently revoked due to that he lied about the past deportation history? If he is no longer LPR, you can not adjust as his derivative. It is time to hire a lawyer for him and for you. The chance of his fight for the deportation will be based on specific details, such as was he deported? how did he return? Or he evaded the deportation and went into hiding? any petition filed on his behalf? if so, when?....

NVC CP expires if no action from you for one year. also if over one year, nobody can claim CSPA age and must use actual age.

Our priority date became current in August 2007. Do you know if there is a time limit to apply for 485 from the time the priority date become current?

if the petitioner is your biological father and he is a natualized US citizen, your age was frozen as a child already when he became a US citizen.

You must respond to the first letter from KCC, to "claim" the prize.

OK, the I-130 is F4 petitioned by her sister. It's a low priority and you can forget that i-130. Please do I-129F and get her K-1 visa. If she aquired an A#, fill in the number in I-129f.

In your profile you said the category is F2A????? That must be a mistake?? You and the co-sponsor both have to fill out I-864 and submt tax info.

what is your category? If you filed I-130/I-485 concurrently to Chicago box, no need to worry. NBC will arrange interview at your local office regardless of your I-130 status.

So it looks promising based on what you said. If so, all of you can file I-485 with supplement A when PD is current.

unfortunately you cannot leave US without damaging your eligibility. Your situation is similar to those in withholding or deferred deportation, you can get EAD to work while waiting for the final decision or deportation, but leaving US means you voluntarily give up your fight for GC. Please wait until you are eligible to file I-485 and travel with AP.

Hi Kansas,
Do you know if there is any way to file travel document in case of emergency? I have EAD but i haven't filed 485 because my date is not PD.
I really need to travel this time, I have family emergency... I appreciate your reply

You (or the petitioner) only need to pay $70 one time, if you and all your F3 derivatives will be interviewed with you. Later NVC will send the Immigration Visa Fee bill for each and everyone NVC decided that can get visa based on this F3 I-130, at that time you will know for sure whether your daughter is given this IV bill.

i have posted the above tread but no one reply i will post this new tread hoping that some one will reply
i have received a choose of agent form from the NVC and my mother had received a affidavit of support bill for $70
but the NVC do not mention nothing about the review of my case for CSPA . can someone explain this for me
my pd is nov 24 2000
receipt date nov 29 2000
notice date 18 january 2009
can some one calculate CSPA for me
note the nvc sent a invoice number to pay the $70 i log on but i dont see my daughter who is 22 year old name

You are about to finish the "applicant document" process (formerlly known as packet 3). Mail this back to NVC with the cover sheet (of payment receipt and barcodes) on top. Once NVC collects both applicant documents and petitioner's I-864, they will forward the packt to Manila and send you an interview notice. It will take a few months.

hi kansas, i would like to ask how long will it take for the NVC to process my visa if i have completed all the required documents that the NVC is asking... i am an IR2 category, my parents just paid for the visa processing fee, they have also completed filing the affidavit of support... i am now completing all the necessary documents here in the phils. i also have the cover sheet from the NVC, instruction packt data sheet from NVC which says i have to include them together with the DS 230 forms part 1 and 2 and all the required documents that i have to mail to the NVC. thank you very much in advance and i am looking forward to be enlightened here on your forum..

Did they come to US before? Or this B visa interview was their first? The chances of getting a visitor Visa is not necessarily better even if they cancels the immigration visa. They have to demonstrate strong ties and good social and financial status to the home country.

Hi,

What are the chances of getting a visitor Visa once if a person cancels the immigration visa.
My parents visitor's visa recently was denied with the reason being that their immigration visa was pending(I-130). My parents DON'T want to immigarte to the US anyway. Their immigration visa (F4) was applied in Jan 1999 and now the prirority date is Aug 1998. So, we are in a dilemma whether to CANCEL their immigration visa and apply for visitor visa so that they can atleast come on a visitor's visa to the United States.

Would appreciate if someone can help us on this...

Regards,

Indian Person

If this F3 I-130 was approved in 2005, it is quite safe for your 22 years-old to be classified as child under CSPA.

my mother file for me in the f3 catogery my priority date is nov 24 2000 i received a email on the 26 of may saying this case is currently under review for applicability of the child status protection act CSPA you will be notified as soon as a decision is made please be adviced that there is no time frame for when this will happen please do not contact the us embassy or consulate general as they will have no further information
my daughter who is 22 on may 18 2009 will she be able to migrate does CSPA covered f3 catogery, approval date was january 2005
does that mean that CSPA would make her about seventeen years

I am confused. What I-130? You cannot file I-130 for a fiancee. You should file I-129F to get her to come to US with K1 visa and get married. After the marriage, she will file I-130/I-485 concurrently.

What is the timeline for processing once a case is sent to the NVC? Are we talking weeks, months or years before a visa would be issued? This is assuming all is well and no unusual circumstances are foreseen.
I am asking because I was about to submit an I129f for my fiancee but she was just notified that her case was sent from the National Benefits Center to the NVC. In March it was transferred from the California Center to the National Benefits center.
I guess my real question is will she be able to get here sooner with the current I130 processing or if I file the I129f?
