Calling All F2A's (Spouses & Children of Permanent Residents)

[visjig]

If any of you have an experience with F2A , Please kindly post your time frame. I would like to get an idea of what to expect from it. Thanks for your time.

I would suggest that you go here http://www.immihelp.com/tracker/ and see the time frames. You can also update your time line there.

Good luck.

No need of sending any educational certificates. You might want to take them for the interview, just to show them if asked.

Good luck.

thank you visjig

Hey All! I'm new here and just joining in! My father (LPR) filed a petition for my sister, under F2A cat... I just received email and text alert from USCIS regarding about my sis case. They just received her case on Feb 11,2011. How long does it take to approve F2A from USCIS? How long does it take the whole process? She was born in July 30,1992. I am worry about age out. I haven't seen my sis for 15 years...I cann't wait to see her again.

At present time F2A category is under-retrogression and the latest priority date being processed is 01Jan2007. Search for Visa Bulletin and read that.

Good luck.

I have a question here... I am going to send the DS-230 form and civil documents to NVC pretty soon, waiting for a police clearance certificate. Do I have to send any of the educational certificatesof the applicant to NVC? At any point during the process, esp. at the interview will they ask for the applicant's educational certificates? pls reply.. those who have sent DS-230 and who have had attended interview could help.. thanks...

No that does not mean that. Your husband can get an interview call when the PD is current in the VB.

Good luck.

Then we should just pray and hope for the best. Thanks

Does it mean that my husband might get a visa soon?

Hi

I got approved i-130 pd sep2010, NVC asking to pay $88 fee for AOS, Iam in us want to apply adjust of status but priority date 1jan08, so what is the next step
with NVC because they already emailed 2 times.please advice.

Hi Usah,

I believe as you are talking about for I-130 it might be F2A Spouse category. My PD is Aug 8 2010. Last in Dec 2010 they took dates before Aug 1 2010. As you have PD in Sep 2010 and as of my knowledge they have not taken any dates after Aug 1 2010, Can you please tell me when did you receive mail from NVC? What exactly did they ask for? Did they contact you first or you asked them first?

I would really appreciate your help if you can explain me in detail.
