Just Venting
I am just venting about my spouse in a place I know that he cannot see. So, our case was approved one year ago in May 2024 after waiting two years for the I-130 to be accepted. I immediately submitted all of my NVC documentation, however my husband screwed around for months getting his documents ready. Every time Iād check, which was weekly, heād have some excuse. Because of his laziness, he didnāt submit all of his required documents until April 2025!! Nearly one whole year!! We just got DQ on May 5 for Montreal and of course weāre going to have to wait at least another 4 months for an interview date. After this is all said and done, itāll have been a four year process. Am I wrong for being angry at him? Iāve never told him this either because whatās the point? Iām just tired of my life being on hold because of him.

Actively Reviewing
Hello again everyone Iām so anxious, I just received one email each Iām guessing for each form (I-485 & I-130). They both says, āweāve taken action on your caseā I can only see the I-130 now because my husband is at work and to log on to see both responses I have to get the code theyāll send to his cell. This is driving me crazy lol. When I logged on it just shows, āCase is being actively review.ā They acknowledged our RFEs on 5/13 so Iām just hoping that this is it folks. Itās been such a stressful journey. Iāll keep you all updated. Also at our interview, things take a surprising turn due to info my husband āforgotā to mentioned when we applied which was one of the main reasons for our RFEs. We had every supporting documents for our I-130 that the lady didnāt look at and I think itās all because she really was being unprofessional, there was a power outage the whole time and she was just pissed-not more than me lol. We got a lawyer, resent everything along with RFE for his I-485. I promise you guys I will give you the full story to see if it can ease somebodyās mind who is going through the same or near same situation. I almost gave up.
JUST FINISHED OUR INTERVIEW
we just concluded our interview , my PD is December 16 2024 ā¦ the interview officer was so friendly and coincidentally the officer is from same country as myself , my wife and our Attorney, I had my masters in United Kingdom and the officer also had his masters in United Kingdom, we had a lot in common that we spent more time discussing about our experiencesā¦ he went through our file and found out ne and my wife have travelled a lot while I was living in United Kingdom as she fly to UK to visit me and we been to Germany together, travel to Albania, Belgium etc so the relationship is rich with pictures and tickets , thereās one tricky format he applied, he tear a piece of paper and gave me and my wife separately with a pen , then ask us to write where we spent our valentines, then he took the paper and compare the answer, he asked us to who cooks at home I said Iām the one , then he asked us to write what we ate last night on the piece of paper , then he compared it , then he asked the colour of our sheets , I messed up right there and he laughed and said he know men are not good with colours at the end of the day we continue having conversation and he said everything is good and itās our first marriage and the case is straightforward, he told us that our case has been approved instantly that we should expect the card in the mail ā¦ when we came out my attorney said this is the easiest case she ever handled and since she started my case that she found me to be lucky in everythingā¦
IM OPEN TO QUESTIONS FOR ANYBODY HAVING INTERVIEW
