F2a Approved
Hi everyone! Just wanted to share an update on my case. I just received a soft approval on my I-130! 🎉 I want to wish everyone who’s still waiting the very best—I truly hope you all receive your approvals soon. Timeline: * Priority Date: February 10, 2023 * I am from a country currently affected by the travel ban/pause. * Everything started moving after I contacted my congressional representative and they submitted an inquiry on my behalf. * July 1: Received my interview notice. * July 9: Attended the interview at my local USCIS field office as the petitioner. I know this is not common for a consular case, I was surprised too * July 18: I-130 approved (soft approval). Don’t lose hope. I know how difficult the wait can be, but cases can still move forward. Wishing everyone the best, and I hope you all get good news very soon!

Congratulations! I’m in a very similar F2A consular case and was also scheduled for a petitioner-only interview while my spouse remains abroad. What questions did they ask, how long did it last, and what documents did you bring? Did the officer give you any indication at the end that approval was likely? did they ask anything about your time spent outside the United States or your ties to the U.S., or was the interview focused only on your marriage and relationship?

@Deb k could you look my message on the top I would really appreciate it.
Deb k20 de jul de 2026
that’s good news hopefully you will be approved soon what they asked me was birth certificates and affidavits of support from friends and family they ask how long we know each other, when did we get married, who was there, I brought pictures, messages, call logs, ticket trips, money transferts, the interview was focused on my relationship even thought she asked about my background when did I came to the us the interview was also quick maybe 30 min after that she told me to upload the requested documents and that was it
Deb k20 de jul de 2026
@Hamza Qayyum yes I defined my case and explain my situation in the inquiry and insisted in the fact that it’s over 3 years already and that I did not have any update since
Hamza Qayyum21 de jul de 2026
DebK , but everyone define their situation and explain their long wait over 3 years in the senate inquiry but mostly say their response is cut copy paste. In my opinion I think you used any medical excuse other wise it’s impossible that Senator can do anything in now days

B B22 de jul de 2026
@Deb k thanks for your response. Did they say to upload birth certificates and affidavits online or you presented at the interview?
Deb k22 de jul de 2026
@B B they asked me to upload them because I did not have them during the interview
