CR-1 Visa – Administrative Processing / “System Down” – Riyadh Embassy
Hi everyone,
I recently had my CR-1 visa interview at the U.S. Embassy in Riyadh. The interview went well, the officer said my documents were complete and they didn’t need anything additional from my side. However, after the interview, my CEAC status shows "REFUSED"
The officer mentioned that the system was down
I wanted to check here if anyone has had a similar experience with CR-1 visa administrative processing at Riyadh Embassy, especially where:
The officer said your documents were fine,
No extra documents were requested,
There was a “system down” or processing delay.
How long did it take for your case to move forward? When did you receive your passport? Any advice or updates would be really helpful!
Thanks in advance. #cr1 #interview #ir1 #embassy #riyadh
Hey family, just a quick question?
Hey family, my wife petitions for me but she got sick and have a mental health issue because of that she’s not living with me she’s at the hospital and I got a visit from usci and I’m worrie about our case being approved is there any thoughts about that please advise me!
good moral
guys I need some help, I have pending vawa since 2022
I never sent in my good moral with my initial appllication, when I asked chat gpt it says its best if i send it now because it could be that that it what they re waiting for,also they will send rfe anyway so I shouldnt wait for the rfe I should just send it now to them.
when i asked my lawyer she said that I need to wait and I cant just send stuff to them.
what do you guys think
I-485 Green card
Hi everyone,
I’m hoping someone here might have gone through something similar.
My VAWA has already been approved, and I had my I-485 interview in March 2024. Since then, I haven’t received any clear updates or a final decision.
Has anyone else experienced a long wait after the interview — especially with an approved VAWA case? How long did it take for you to get a response?
Any insight, advice, or shared experience would really help. 🙏
Thanks in advance!

Ann sispann gatekeeping 😂. Eske anbasad We Etazini nan Sending mande prèv legal nou lòt bò a?
zanmi m yo, anpil nan nou transfere dosye viza nou soti Ayiti pou SenDomeng menm lè pa gen viza. Nou tout konnen sitiyasyon an difisil… men m ap mande nou seryezman 😂 eske Anbasad la mande mande nou prèv legal nou nan SenDomeng?
Èske yo mande prèv rezidans, prèv kote w rete an RD, oswa gen lòt dokiman yo toujou mande nan anbasad la pou montre ou "legal" swa pou w tansfere dosye w la oswa lè w al nan entèvyou.
Tanpri, lage enfòmasyon an pou ede lòt frè ak sè nou yo 🙌🇭🇹🙏.
Child born in abroad while waiting for my spouse’s I130 approval (F2A)
PD : Jan 2024
Category : F2A (I’m a green card holder)
And we just had a baby 2 months ago, how can I add baby so that baby and my wife will immigrate together? USCIS website is not clear about this scenario. Do we have to file separate I130? Has anyone gone through this similar situation?
