NVC requests for a ref (IR-5)
US citizens filing for a patent (mom) does anyone know how long it can take the NVC to review documents after requesting for an additional or a correction of a document? because I submitted my documents on the 4/3/25 had a request to complete an I-1264a instead on 4/11/25 which I did that same day. how long will it take for them to review that paperwork because all the other once has been accepted by them. has this happened to anyone? #nvc
NVC interview scheduling for consular processing help please!
so I recently got an email from the NVC saying that my documents were finally complete, they said they would work with the office in my country(Paraguay) to schedule an interview. I am so excited!!🎉 I just want to know if there is anything I have to do now or if I have to wait for them to send me a confirmation? I'm getting a little anxious just waiting, I don't want to accidentally miss a step. Please help!

question!! 🙋♀️
for people who got their i-130 approved, may i ask if i-824 and i-485 were mentioned in your approval notice? because i thought my i-130 is a standalone and i don't need to file i-824 (since im outside the us) but i think there's a mistake. or is it just a generic template? #ir2 #approvalletter #approved #i130 #i-130 #nvc

The Pain of Waiting – But Hope Never Dies
3 years and 3 months. That’s how long I waited. That’s how long I carried the unbearable weight of uncertainty. Every single day felt like a battle between hope and despair. I refreshed the USCIS page so many times, I lost count. I convinced myself I wouldn’t be approved. I lived with the fear that my dreams, my family, my future—everything—would slip away because of a decision that wasn’t in my hands.
There were nights I broke down, crying into the silence, feeling like no one understood the pain of waiting. The pain of not knowing. The pain of seeing life move forward for others while mine stood still. I questioned everything. I felt forgotten.
But then… one day, everything changed. I checked my status, and I saw the word I had been waiting for: “Approved.” At that moment, the weight on my chest finally began to lift. The pain, the sleepless nights, the tears—they didn’t disappear, but they suddenly felt worth it.
To those still waiting, I know your pain. I know how heavy it feels to carry this uncertainty every day. But please, don’t lose hope. Even in the darkest moments, your day is coming. There is still light at the end of the tunnel. Stay patient. Stay strong. Because when that moment finally arrives, when you see that approval, you will realize that every tear, every prayer, every sleepless night—it was all leading you to that one life-changing moment.
Hold on. Your time is coming.

I-601A approved, Documentarily Qualified. Am I safe from ICE deportation under new Trump guidance?
Entered the USA from Mexico in 2001 without being seen or processed by immigration.
Married to US Citizen
No criminal history
I-130 approved in 2020
I-601A approved in February, 2024
Documentarily Qualified July, 2024
Awaiting interview in Ciudad Juarez
Do we know if interviews in CDJ are still happening? Any increased risk going there now with Trump in office?
I am hoping that, if I am picked up, once they see my paperwork that that I've been working through every step of the immigration process legally, either the ICE officers or the immigration court will show leniency. I'm so close! Based on what we've seen, I'm hoping for an interview date within the next 6 months.
