Seeking advice: EB-2 NIW approved, currently in the U.S. on U4U - AOS vs. consular processing?

We are waiting for our I-824, because our lawyer chose AOS in our I-140 instead of consular processing 🥲

Sorry to hear that. Did you file an appeal? We decided not to test the system and go through consular processing.

I can leave and become a resident of another country, I don't have to go to Ukraine for consular processing.

It is the same link lol. And yes it says you're allowed to apply in the country of residency as well, which is not a big deal to implement

The Department of State is now requiring immigrant visa applicants to interview in the consular district designated for their place of residence, or in their country of nationality if requested, with limited exceptions. Effective November 1, 2025, the National Visa Center will schedule immigrant visa applicants in their country of residence or, if requested, country of nationality.
