Hi sir Jacob thanks for your information..
Thanks
Hi sir Jacob my priority Date is Aug 2009 category f2b..
Are there any stats on what the backlog is by country, not the totals?
yes
Thanks for the info. Have been waiting 25 months for my interview date in Johannesburg, South Africa. Still waiting… and visa bulletin is current
Hi Jacob, I will like to speak to you.
For which quel category ?
What category?
Look up the jan 2023 nvc raw data it shows fully 13 percent of embassies were not scheduling interviews because they did not have any documentarily complete applicants. This number will only have increased in the last 9 months. This is a huge wastage of visas because the priority dates are not moving.
My priority date is shown in date of filing application jan 2010 in f3 but still not asked for documents
Hi sir,
I applied for I130 for my spouse who lives in Canada. Our interview location is Montreal. As of now NVC accepted all our documents and we are waiting for the interview date. Priority date is shown as 23-Sep-2022 in our CEAC account. Visa class is CR1. How long it would be before we get the interview appointment in Montreal?
Any update on Jamaica. I am documented for two years.and waiting to be scheduled for an interview .Do you know where Jamaica is?

Would you happen to know anything about the processing time in Costa Rica? I'm already in Documentary Completed, and I have been waiting for three months.
i am from pakistan and ive been waiting for about 1 year for the interview :/
Thank you Jacob. This is very helpful and sets realistic expectations. We filed for my mother's green card in 2021.....process finally completed July 2023 through NVC. All documents completed and waiting for interview in Lagos. Are you saying that we should just wait to hear from NVC for interview date which may take up to a year to happen? THEN we would schedule medical interview and register info online with ustraveldocs? Thank you for your help!!!!
Yes, that is correct. Once you have received a DQ notification from the NVC, you will need to wait for them to schedule your interview appointment. The wait time for interview appointments can vary depending on the workload of the embassy or consulate where the interview will take place, but it can be several months.
Once you have received an interview appointment, you can schedule your medical exam and register your information online with USTravelDocs.
See I Am in kind of same situation me and wife is completed it’s been 4 months and still no scheduling but we filed for the I 130 and 2022 took the USCIS forever now the NVC is the same situation. It’s taken forever 4 months already.
It was for relative F4

Hi, my sister filed an I-30 form for me in 2009 which was approved in 2010 and I haven’t heard or gotten an update since. Does it normally take so long to process? Thanks in advance for answering.
Usually when NVC approves your document, they will email you letting you know they forwarded your cases to NVC. Then NVC will email you with new login information. Have you kept up with the emails?
Hi I wish you could talk about those who have applied for EB3 and are already in the USA. Nursing agency applied for us while we had other cases filled with USCIS and it’s been two years now since we applied but first time I-140 was denied.
Can you check for Sierra Leone embassy backlog
Hello
Thank you so very much for your time explaining the process. I have a question. I have applied for my sister and after she will be DQ, hopefully any day now how the process of scheduling interview works? Obviously there are 400k DQ cases in front of her. But we are coming fron Eastern Europe Embassy that is working pretty good. Does she have to wait while all other 400k cases that were dq prior her with interview to be scheduled in a very busy embassies since they have early pd or since she is dq and our Embassy has available spots she can expect the interview to be scheduled very fast? Thanks
Your sister will be scheduled for an interview in the order in which her case is processed, but the fact that she is from an Eastern European embassy that is working well may mean that she will be scheduled sooner.
Do you know what the wait time is for IR1 in Rio embassy in Brazil after DQ? Thanks

I have a question.?
Our case foam I -130 was approved in 2010 and notice sent same year.
No action was taken probably we didn't know what to do next
Similarly again in September 2021 it was approved and notification sent but petitioner didn't receive.
Asked to check in Feb 2022 for notice but still no interview date yet.
My question is how to go next step to aquire interview
And how much longer should we wait?
We need help.

Hi

hello jacob..how abt my priority date nov 2015? how long does it take to be current?
hopefully you could read this comment...💕
Hi Jacop I’m current for interview for the Fy 2023 but till now I haven’t received any emails from the NVC or any 2nl and you know September 30 is the last day for 2023 what is your advice?
It's understandable to be concerned about the timelines, especially with the fiscal year end approaching. If you're current and haven't received any communication:
1. Reach out to the NVC directly via email or phone to check on the status of your case.
2. Ensure your contact details, including your email, are up-to-date with the NVC.
3. Regularly check your spam/junk folders in your email.
4. Consider consulting with an immigration attorney to get guidance specific to your situation.

Are immediate relative like a child of US citizen have priority ?
Hi Jacob, How long does it take for CR1 to get interview appointment after DQ at US embassy in London, UK, where the petitioner is a US citizen?
Hello,
After being Documentarily Qualified (DQ) for a CR1 visa at the U.S. embassy in London, the wait time for an interview can vary. Generally:
Wait Time: For the U.S. embassy in London, the time between achieving DQ status and receiving an interview appointment can range from a few weeks to a few months. This timeline can be influenced by the embassy's current workload and any external events.
Visa Bulletin: The CR1 category for spouses of U.S. citizens is an immediate relative category, meaning there's no annual quota. However, processing times can still vary.
Stay Updated: It's essential to regularly check your email and the CEAC website for updates from the NVC and the embassy.

Do you have answer for this or is there any way you can help. By the way this was for my spouse. We start this cases 4 years ago. The Embassy is in Ethiopia. I will be appreciated if you tell us different than what we hear from them,because you are telling us the same like them. Thanks.

Good afternoon. If I applied for the EB3 program and my case is in NVC, can I go to the U4U program in the USA without negative consequences for EB3 immigration?
Thank you
Good afternoon!
If you're considering participating in the U4U program while having an EB3 case pending at the NVC, it's essential to understand potential implications:
1. **Overlapping Applications:** Both are distinct immigration paths, and participation in one does not inherently invalidate the other.
2. **Entry to the U.S.:** If you enter the U.S. under the U4U program or any other temporary status, you must adhere to the terms of that status. Any intention to stay permanently while on a temporary status can be viewed as misrepresentation.
3. **Adjustment of Status:** If you are in the U.S. and your EB3 becomes current, you may potentially adjust your status without leaving, depending on your specific situation.
Always consult with an immigration attorney before making decisions. They can guide you based on your unique circumstances and the specifics of the U4U program, as regulations and policies can change.

dear I am from Ethiopia we started pross August 2016 and DQ march 2023 me i am single mom and my 2 Kids but when will be our interviews ,thanks
What I don’t understand is where are these people coming from that are getting fb visas. The dates haven’t moved really in years. All of the visas issued since 2020 have gone to people who must have been dq mainly prior to 2020. So how have they managed to give two years worth of visas out to people who should have had their visa before 2020?
Also the backlog only really drops when there are retrogression in en or other categories. It is like magic when a retrogression happens there is a drop in the backlog the next month.

The issue arises from immigration lawyers making the situation more complex. Congress enabled faster family reunification through form I-129, but the National Visa Center's refusal to approve I-129 before I-130 and scheduling interviews complicates the process.

My case f2a..my case documentary qualified in January 2023..I m waiting very long time for interview ..any idea when it will come???pls reply
Here's what you should know:
1. **Visa Bulletin**: The U.S. Department of State's Visa Bulletin provides information about visa availability. The Final Action Date for your category and country of origin determines when a visa is available for you.
2. **NVC Scheduling**: Once your priority date becomes current according to the Visa Bulletin, and your case is Documentarily Qualified (DQ) by the NVC, the NVC will work on scheduling your interview at the appropriate U.S. embassy or consulate.
3. **Embassy Backlogs**: Delays can also occur due to backlogs at specific U.S. embassies or consulates, especially considering the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on operations.

Hello sir, my US citizen husband has applied for i130 petition in august 2023 which is still under review and not approved yet. I just delivered a baby 5 days back in India and my application is still pending. What should we do now? We want to take our child with us. Shall we inform the USCIS or apply for child's CRBA?
Hi, I am waiting for my husband interview since Jan 2023 this is when all our required documents were accepted for the interview. Since then we are waiting but haven't gotten any call for the interview. its been 10 months already. its an immediate visa why is it taking so long. our case type is 'I-130 petition for alien relative'. Any help and suggestion is appreciated. What should we do to get the interview scheduled as soon as possible?
The processing time for Form I-130 petitions can vary depending on the USCIS field office and the current workload. To expedite your husband's interview, you can contact your local USCIS field office to inquire about the status of your case and request an interview date. If there are any outstanding issues with your application, they will inform you of the necessary steps to resolve them.

Hope you are in good shape sir😊 my daughter applied 130 and we are already DQ me and my husband our priority date is June 4 2023. How long do we have to wait our medical n appointment interview ? Thank you for your time sir😊 from Philippines
Hello,
Thank you for reaching out, and I hope you're doing well too! 😊
For your situation, with a Priority Date (PD) of June 4, 2023, having been Documentarily Qualified (DQ), and being from the Philippines, here's a brief overview:
Visa Bulletin & Wait Time: Your next step is waiting for your PD to become current. The U.S. Department of State's Visa Bulletin provides monthly updates on visa availability. The Philippines often has specific cut-off dates due to high demand.
Post-DQ Process: Once your PD becomes current, the National Visa Center (NVC) will schedule your visa interview at the U.S. embassy in Manila. After receiving your interview date, you can then arrange for your medical examination, which should be done at an approved medical facility in the Philippines.
Expected Timeline: The exact wait time can vary based on several factors, including the embassy's workload and the specific visa category. Given your PD of June 4, 2023, you might expect a wait of a few months to possibly a year or more, but it's essential to keep an eye on the Visa Bulletin for updates specific to the Philippines.
Stay Updated: Regularly monitor your email (including spam/junk folders) and the CEAC website for updates from the NVC and the embassy.
Legal Consultation: If you face any uncertainties or delays, consulting with an immigration attorney can provide clarity and tailored guidance.

I am in f4 in canada. and my document been approve since feb and I have not get the interview yet. how do we know how many are they behind in Montreal Canada embassy .
Hello,
The waiting period for an interview can vary greatly. Once your documents are approved, the NVC will work with the U.S. Embassy in Montreal to schedule your interview. Unfortunately, there's no public data available that shows how many applicants are in line ahead of you at a specific embassy or consulate. The timing depends on the volume of cases they are processing and their operational capacity. I recommend staying in close contact with the NVC and checking the status of your case online regularly.

Hi ! How does it takes for CR1 to get interview Letter after DQed at 23Aug 2023 at US embassy in kathmandu Nepal?USC
Hello,
For the CR1 visa category, once you've been Documentarily Qualified (DQ), the wait time for an Interview Letter (IL) can vary based on the U.S. embassy's workload, in this case, the U.S. embassy in Kathmandu, Nepal. Generally, it can range from a few weeks to several months. The U.S. embassy in Kathmandu is known to have specific processing times, and external factors can also impact the scheduling.
It's essential to keep monitoring your email (including spam/junk folders) and the CEAC website for updates. For a more specific estimate based on the current processing times at the U.S. embassy in Kathmandu and the CR1 category, consulting with an immigration attorney is advisable.

On October 11 ,2023 for I-130 nvc approved the case , my spouse is in Saudi so how long does it take for interview
For a spouse in Saudi Arabia, after NVC approval, the case will be transferred to the U.S. Embassy or Consulate in that country. The National Visa Center (NVC) will then work with the consulate to schedule an interview. This process can take several months, and in some cases, even longer.
Here are the general steps after I-130 approval:
NVC Preparation: NVC will collect visa fees, forms, and documents necessary to prepare the case for the interview.
Case Transfer to the Embassy/Consulate: After preparation, NVC will transfer the case to the U.S. Embassy or Consulate in Saudi Arabia.
Interview Scheduling: Once the embassy or consulate receives the case, they will schedule an interview based on their availability and current caseload.
Given the variance in processing times, it's a good idea to regularly check the State Department's website for the current wait times for interview appointments at the embassy or consulate in Saudi Arabia. You can also contact the NVC for updates on your case status.

when do you think sir i should get an interview letter ?
Manila embassy .
i got my case expedited and has been ready for interview at the Islamabad embassy for the past 3 weeks. i Even called to see if i can set up my appointment and they just told me to wait for an email that will provide the appointment date but still have not received anything yet. From what i heard and researched for expedited cases its 2 to 4 weeks until appointment date is received and its already been 3 weeks.
It's understandable to feel anxious, especially with expedited cases, as you expect a swift process. Sometimes, even expedited cases can face minor delays due to administrative processes or other factors at the embassy. While 2-4 weeks is a general timeframe, there are no guarantees.
My advice:
1. **Stay Patient:** Wait for at least another week before taking further action.
2. **Follow-up:** If you still haven't received anything after 4 weeks, consider reaching out again to the embassy to inquire about the status.
Remember, embassies manage many cases, and while yours has been expedited, some internal processes might still take time.

My case also got expedited almost three weeks ago. still waiting for interview to be scheduled.
Reason of expedited?
@@ali-eb9rj medical reason. I have a major physical disability
I wanted to ask one thing, my husband is green card holder of USA, his green card is expiring after 6 months, he wants to renew his green card and also apply for citizenship, so Can these two things apply together and my second question is can they come to Pakistan after applying both because I heard that if their passport gets i-551 stamped by USCIS then they can come to Pakistan. Can come, is it possible?
Hello,
1. **Green Card Renewal and Citizenship Application**: Your husband can renew his green card and apply for citizenship, but not exactly "together". Typically, if he's eligible for citizenship (has had the green card for 5 years or 3 years if married to a U.S. citizen), many people choose to apply directly for citizenship without renewing the green card. This is because the naturalization process can sometimes be completed in nearly the same amount of time it takes to get a renewed green card. However, if there are concerns about travel or proof of status while the citizenship application is pending, he may choose to renew the green card first or simultaneously.
2. **Travel after Applying**: If he applies for citizenship (naturalization), he can travel abroad while his application is pending. However, he must ensure he doesn't have extended absences from the U.S., as it can affect his continuous residency requirement for naturalization.
The I-551 stamp you're referring to is a temporary proof of permanent residency. This is usually given in situations like when someone's green card is lost, stolen, or being renewed, and they need to travel. The stamp is placed in the passport and serves as a temporary green card, allowing the person to travel outside the U.S. and return.
If your husband chooses to renew his green card and it doesn't arrive before he needs to travel, he can schedule an appointment with USCIS to potentially get an I-551 stamp in his passport, allowing him to travel while awaiting the new card.
Always consult with an immigration attorney before making decisions or travel plans.

What a detailed reply . great man
My case ducomentry qualified in one year ago am in adisababa it sooo long time still am waiting interview appointment
Yes, it is a long wait for interview appointments in Addis Ababa. The wait time for F2B cases is currently over 3 years.
Hello, I received an email from the NVC stating that my case is now documentarily qualified. I received email for documentarily on august 17 2023 I'm eager to know how long it will take for the interview, especially since I noticed that the priority date remains the same. The email mentioned that my application is in line, awaiting an interview appointment overseas, where a consular officer will adjudicate it. My priority date is February 12, 2008. Can you predict how much longer it will take for my interview?
Hello! I was approved the day after you and still waiting for a interview date. I believe the weight time form being approved is 3-6 months.
@@StarWarsJoy ohh it means it will. Take a year or something I'm sacred I have been waiting so long because this means a lot to reunite with my family
Hello! Receiving notification from the National Visa Center (NVC) that your case is "documentarily qualified" is a positive step forward. It means that all the necessary paperwork has been submitted and accepted. However, predicting the exact timeline for your interview can be challenging, as it depends on various factors.
Here are a few points to consider:
Priority Date: Your priority date of February 12, 2008, is crucial. You need to monitor the U.S. State Department's Visa Bulletin to see when your priority date becomes current. The interview can only be scheduled once your priority date is current.
Consular Scheduling: Once your priority date is current, the availability of interview appointments at the specific U.S. Embassy or Consulate where you will be interviewed also plays a role. This can vary based on the consular post's workload, staffing, and other factors.
Processing Times: Generally, after a case becomes documentarily qualified, it can take several months to a year or more for an interview to be scheduled, depending on the factors mentioned. However, this is a general estimate and can vary significantly.
Given the uncertainty and variability in processing times, it's advisable to remain patient and keep monitoring the Visa Bulletin. If you have specific concerns or need more detailed guidance, please feel free to reach out for a consultation:
