btw not sure why you see my I-129 on this post too, this was for H1B transfer I had in June, not related
slim RKJul 26, 2022
that was a very short time for you
congratulations 🎈🎊🍾🎉
Iryna PJul 26, 2022
@slim I know!!!! super grateful after all these years trying to get there
Four-leaf Clover 🍀Jul 26, 2022
congratulations! so, was your case approved without an interview?
Iryna PJul 26, 2022
KC Bud, yes, it was approved without interview, as most employment based visas this year
Four-leaf Clover 🍀Jul 26, 2022
@Iryna, Mine and yours is the same case except for the fact that I am a primary applicant here. When I chatted with Emma, the representative once told me that it got transferred to a field office and is in queue for an interview. But, besides that I haven’t got any actual update in my case. If you don’t mind, would you tell me how long you guys have been married?
Iryna PJul 26, 2022
we have been married for a little over a year, but we have evidence of joint rent, pictures, proposal over 3 years ago, visiting each other families , etc, for the past 10 years - all included in our file
I am not sure if I will get a normal GC or conditional, I read that conditional ones are only issued for cases of marriage-based GCs
Four-leaf Clover 🍀Jul 26, 2022
@Iryna P, thank you so much for sharing! That was so smart of you to include all the proofs in your file. unfortunately, we didn’t include any of that thinking we can only submit all of these proofs in our interview. I don’t know where my case is heading towards.
Iryna PJul 27, 2022
KC - good luck!

@Iryna P Congrats did you end up receiving the normal GC or the conditional
