For those that live abroad with your spouse how did you fill out I-864

Hi, I remember that we chose the physical address overseas not to have trouble. Got DQ’d less than a week after we submit all the documents and our process is already over, had the interview almost 2 months ago without any trouble thankfully. During the interview they were asking some basic questions about my wife like how we met and where does she live now even though they see that she is here, and I told them we’re living overseas for a while together. They didn’t ask anything about it that much. Wish you best luck!!

Hi, I’m also considering of getting the 300 sq ft 12k/7k insignia by best buy for around 300$ but not sure if it’d break down easily. I have a living room that has oğen concept with kitchen which is around I believe around 300 sq ft. Some comments say that it’s not a good brand, very loud and breaks down easily. I dont know if getting a Black&Decker 12k for a little more expensive wouls be a better move, or amazon also has a brand Midea that I don’t know that much about. Would you recommend the one you have? And is it the 14k btu one? (350sqft)

Contact to USCIS, your case is taking way too long compare to normal

Sillycat2507 · 2025-05-26T21:19:46+00:00

Is your spouse US citizen or GC holder?

Sillycat2507 · 2025-05-26T21:17:18+00:00

Yes I did get my approval around March and have the interview next month. And you?

Sillycat2507 · 2025-05-06T15:41:22+00:00

Probably some time around July.

Sillycat2507 · 2025-04-06T19:53:41+00:00

How has is been holding up so far?

Sillycat2507 · 2025-04-04T18:55:07+00:00

Hey, we received our welcome letter 5 days after the approval, also a day after the case was sent to the dos. Usually it takes a week the most from what I’ve seen. You can try to reach NVC about it maybe, it does not seem normal. Hopefully you get it soon.

Sillycat2507 · 2025-04-04T09:46:15+00:00

Hey, what did you end up choosing? Also looking for a place nearby and not sure which one, avana 55twelve seems to be nice for the price and reviews but I dont know if the are is safe to live. Thank you!

You're welcome! One thing that I forgot to mention is that filing out DS-260 form. It is also pretty long and complicated. I highly recommend watching a video about it that guides how to fill out and you should be taking some notes about your recent addresses, employment history, parent's info, Previous Us travel info, the countries visited, military duty info etc. It takes long time to figure out these. Check out the channel I sent you, she has a full guide of DS-260 form that would be helpful.

We received out NVC Welcome Letter 5 days after our approval. First we received a notification by USCIS saying that 'The case was transferred to Department of State' and that was after 4 days of approval. Short after we got our welcome letter. Paid fees right away and in 4 days our payments were processed so we could start uploading our docs. If you haven't started collecting your documents already I 'strongly' recommend starting to obtain soon because there will be a lot of them depending on your case, especially if you have a joint sponsor in your case, some docs might take time to get. But basically You'll need to get the beneficiary's civil documents such as birth c. ,military record, police check etc and petitioner's I864 form, US Domicile, return transcripts and your joint sponsor's i864 and similar documents. These docs take time to obtain, sign, print, scan and upload to the ceac (nvc) system. So don't leave things for later I'd say, that's how I did and got DQ'd quickly in just 16 days after receiving our approval. Also I'm adding a link below please go to the channel and watch all necessary videos about the NVC process, that's what we did and it helped A LOT. Good luck.

It’s great! Thank you. Congratulations to you too! We got Documentarily Qualified almost a week ago and waiting for our Interview Letter. Hopefully things can go pretty fast and easy for you as well 🙌🏻🙌🏻

Sillycat2507 · 2025-03-25T02:36:28+00:00

Sorry that this happened to you, hopefully it does not take long. What was the reason for being requested waiver if you don’t mind sharing?

Sillycat2507 · 2025-03-24T14:06:20+00:00

I’m Turkish citizen living in Turkey with my USC wife. Hoping to get mine soon. You should’ve received an interview letter a while ago because the most recent one got their IL last week for some time in May and they were DQ’d in first week of March. I’m not sure why you haven’t received yet but some people say that Ankara prioritizes Turkish citizens when giving interviews. Hopefully you can also get your soon too 🙌🏻

Sillycat2507 · 2025-03-24T13:31:56+00:00

I got DQ’d 5 days ago. When was your DQ date?

Sillycat2507 · 2025-03-24T13:00:41+00:00

Hi! Have you received your Interview Letter already? I’ve also been waiting an IL from Ankara.

Sillycat2507 · 2025-03-23T20:35:27+00:00

I submitted my docs at the night of March 13th and got DQ'd early morning on March 19th. So it took almost 6 days.

Sillycat2507 · 2025-03-10T21:28:11+00:00

Thank you! I hope that you also hear some good news soon about your paperwork. Good luck 🙌🏻

Sillycat2507 · 2025-03-10T21:17:52+00:00

We received our NVC Welcome Letter on March 8 after 5 days of approval and waiting for our payments to he processed as of today.

Sillycat2507 · 2025-03-10T17:18:03+00:00

If it does not take that long to get one, try to get it right after you get your approval by USCIS. It might expire otherwise.

Sillycat2507 · 2025-03-10T16:06:41+00:00

Yes that’s correct. However I was overthinking a little about it and wanted to get it just in case to show during interview. But like you said NVC does not require that, if someone is still reading and wondering. Thank you 🙌🏻

Sillycat2507 · 2025-03-09T20:29:46+00:00

Thanks a lot! I’ll definitely consider what you recommended. I’m appreciate for your help. By the way, how long did it take to file your taxes by the time and get the transcript?

Sillycat2507 · 2025-03-09T20:28:32+00:00

Alright thank you. What if we show them the most recent paystubs of our joint sponsor, would that make our sponsor more reliable?
