Case Processing
interview
got a “we have taken action on your case” message twice. one yesterday but nothing reflected in my uscis accoutn. got the 2nd one this afternoon but with and interview date. I know everyone’s experience is different but still, what should we expect at this interview. also, my husband is a disabled vet and doesn’t believe in babysitters so he takes care of our 8 months old daily so how do we go about our interview if we don’t have a babysitter?? will that be an issue if we take him with us? any info would help
eb3 skilled ROW
I have an approved I-140, with August 2023 priority date, EB3 skilled (nurses) ROW. My F1 I-120 will expire at the end of this year. If I need to renew it, can I use my personal bank statement from the income I made with CPT to apply for a new i-120? Also, when do you think my priority date will be current? Thanks

Visto K1 Aprovado!
Gostaria de partilhar com vocês a minha experiência e a da minha noiva pois pode ser útil a alguém.
Iniciamos o processo em junho de 2024 e este foi aprovado na entrevista em fevereiro de 2025 o que significa que todo o processo demorou 8/9 meses.
Há muita informação útil na internet mas como sou dos Açores não conhecia ninguém que já tivesse passado pelo mesmo e então foi preciso muitas dores de cabeça, mas mais por antecipação do que propriamente algum problema.
Tivemoa de ir a Paris para a entrevista e apesar de termos passado pela segurança foi muito tranquilo. havia uma senhora lá portuguesa que pode ajudar caso não saibas ingles. Leva contigo os teus certificados oficiais, carimbados, não pode ser fotocópias. leva as traduções também e se o teu relacionamento for mesmo genuíno, não terás complicações. foi rápido é minha noiva esteve ao meu lado.

Getting a second job while working for your sponsor.
Hi everyone, I have a question relate to a job offer.
My husband has been working for the sponsor for a long time and he always has someone coming to him offering him a job. My question is, he is not going to leave his job because we haven’t received the approval yet, but the wants to turn this full-time job into part-time because he can work with another company as well.
My question is: Is there any minimum amount of hours that he should be working for the sponsor?
Maybe he is not going to change that much of hours since he does 40h/week maybe now decrease to 25/30h week maybe.
Thank you. #eb3unskilled #eb3 #sponsor
still waiting
I’m starting to get concerned/losing hope. I filed standalone I-130 on September 21, 2023. My husband is abroad in Spain and doing consular processing. it’s been well over 500 days since I received the receipt notice. The last update I got from USCIS was September 22,2023 saying that it is being actively reviewed. I reached out to the congressperson for an update and have not heard anything. It’s been almost a month. Is there anything I can do other than wait? is this normal? it really sucks seeing people already done with the whole process and we haven’t had a single update. Also getting concerned with everything happening in government rn that it’s going to be even slower than it already is. advice?

Getting a Prima Facie after 20 months of filling.
I feel like when we’re under this process we get frustrated a lot. That’s my case. I never received a Prima Facie when I fist filed, and it sorta made me feel like something was wrong, I know it’s juts probably in my head, but when you’re doing this process you need as many positive things as you can get. I asked my attorney many times to ask USCIS if they’re going to issue one because I needed to apply for FAFSA, and we tried probably three times to reaching out to them and never got an answer. Last month I reached out to my congressman asking for assistance. I explained my situation and told them that I needed USCIS to issue a Prima Facie, or at least let me know if they needed some extra evidence to issue one. Mind you I was not asking to adjudicate my case. After 10 days of receiving my request they finally issue my PG. I know it might not mean much for some of you guys, but I want you to get from this is that if you really want to get your case moving, we gotta push forward, ask for answer. Maybe if they get fed up of us asking they finally give us some answers.
Good luck to you all and I hope we can all get our approvals soon! 🙏🏻
