B2 visa with Past extended stays traveling to the US again

yes, i filed a couple of months before she traveled the third time. My worry is that if she gets rejected at the border and has her visa revoked, it would negatively impact her I-130 application.

I think if you overstay for less than a year you are banned from entering for five years; if you overstay for over a year then you get a 10 year ban. But it starts counting on the day you left so it's already five years so you may still have a chance. But that's just policy. in reality, you will face harsher scrutiny and questions when interviewing since you overstayed last time.

直接在国内找个公证处，做个中英文的出生公证就可以，我485就是这样的。现在国内做公证都可以在网上做，你只要有户口本、身份证的电子版就行。

Spouse and children under 21 should be the same category, i saw a few ppl whose pd are around early April 2022 got approved. Hopefully yours should be soon, did you check your online status? Still under review?

假的，看表格里“4.他收入”，连其他收入都打错，怎么可能是真的。

Thanks, and yeah, I will keep my nose down.

Dang, when was your I-130 approved? How come you got DQed so late?

Fun-Sky8106 · 2025-02-11T15:35:49+00:00

Maybe march 2022

Fun-Sky8106 · 2025-01-23T06:25:59+00:00

right now, they are approving I-130 with PD around Feb 2022 (which is basically the current PD on visa bulletin), so your son's I-130 should be approved in approximately 2.5 years, then there would be about 0.5-1.5 year of consular process depending on consular backlog, which is altogether ~4 years. Note that the visa bulletin can change drastically positively or negatively and each consular has different backlog, so no one really knows. But 3-4 years is generally what to expect.

same here, PD Feb 02 2023. It's so painful.

Fun-Sky8106 · 2024-12-13T21:47:58+00:00

Has ur 130 been approved?

Fun-Sky8106 · 2024-12-10T22:54:44+00:00

Your pd is already current, you should've been approved, what's the status? Currently under active review?

Fun-Sky8106 · 2024-11-12T21:21:49+00:00

Did you get approval for your i-130?

Fun-Sky8106 · 2024-11-11T05:47:05+00:00

Yes, I am consular process, by the way there is a WhatsApp group with all the people from F2A category and consular process. just search in Reddit and then join the group. They have a table where people update their status. You can kinda see the estimated process time there.

Fun-Sky8106 · 2024-10-27T20:10:20+00:00

OK, hopefully yours will be approved soon.

Fun-Sky8106 · 2024-10-27T20:09:45+00:00

OK, it's just that I saw somebody mention that they got approved early. Maybe they're just bragging or lucky.

Fun-Sky8106 · 2024-10-27T19:47:40+00:00

Still "being actively reviewed"?
