Does the suspension of the Diversity Visa (green card lottery) affect marriage-based green card applications?
With recent news about the suspension of the Diversity Visa (green card lottery) program, I’m wondering if this affects marriage-based green card cases.
Our I-130 is already approved, and we are waiting for the U.S. embassy to schedule the immigrant visa interview (consular processing). This is a family-based case, not DV-related.
Does the DV lottery suspension have any impact on embassy interview scheduling or processing for marriage-based immigrant visas, or is it limited strictly to the DV program?
Thanks in advance for any insight or official references.
case remains pending
hi guys new here,
frustrated and lost please advice the following message is what I have received after interview and responding to the rfe should I be worried?
We are temporarily pausing work on your application because an immigrant visa number is not immediately available to you. Once an immigrant visa number becomes immediately available to you, we will resume processing of your application.
my priority date is August 21
Spouse Interview Question
For anyone who’s done their marriage-based green card interview — how was the experience? I have mine coming up soon, and even though I’ve submitted all the required documents and feel prepared, I tend to get nervous and blank out during interviews. Just curious how it went for others and if there are any tips to stay calm during the process.

485 interview
Hi everyone,
My VAWA (I-360) was approved, and I recently received an interview notice for my I-485.
The interview is scheduled together with my 14-year-old son (derivative applicant).
I was wondering if anyone here has had experience attending an I-485 interview with a child after VAWA approval.
If so, could you please share:
• What kinds of questions were asked during the interview?
• Were there any questions directed to your child, and if so, what were they like?
• Did the officer mostly speak to the parent, or to both?
Any shared experiences or insights would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you so much in advance.
Pending Green Card
Hello everyone! Maybe someone can share advice or their experience. On June 12th, 2025, I received my CR1 visa. I paid the fees for my Green Card on October 14th, and the next day, October 15th, I entered the US. Since then, I haven’t received my Green Card yet. When checking on USCIS, it says they received my payment and to wait up to 90 days. It’s already been more than 60 days with no updates. Is it normal to wait this long for the card? I know many people who received their Green Card within 2 weeks of entering the US.
