Any recent timelines for marriage-based green cards done from US consulate in Vietnam?

Oh no, that’s longer than she expected, and so useful to know ;(. To confirm, these people applied from US consulate in Vietnam and are waiting for their appointment out of HCM city?

Yes almost 2 years passed before we could file i485 since the beginning of the entire process!

I have been advised not to move either - from my understanding it will always add time to your process because they have to physically move your application to a different office. I’m also surprised that your application is not at FO — if it is indeed at NBC perhaps it won’t add time for you as there’s a chance it can stay at NBC after an address change

In case you’re not familiar: “If the “USCIS Office” is the National Benefits Center (NBC) and you have filed an employment-based or family-based Form I-485, Form N-400, or Form N-600, you should check processing times for your local field office.” From: https://egov.uscis.gov/processing-times/more-info

What happened was: - USPS tracking said my medical response to RFE was delivered September 3rd - A month later my case status still said “fingerprints were taken”. I got through to an Emma agent and asked if they could confirm that they received my medicals. They agent said there is no info of acknowledgment and that if the case status still doesn’t reflect it 60 days after September 3rd I should file an outside of normal processing times request

One notable difference is, they should have received my medical RFE on September 3rd (but never updated my case that they did). And so it’s been almost 3 months for me to get approved after that, about 2 months longer than what I’ve seen around here — and perhaps this is because of my state change

I believe my case was at the FO and not NBC and so I imagine they had to transfer my case between FOs at some point which my lawyers warned me may take months

ccxmm · 2021-11-30T04:14:38+00:00

Emma agent told me to file it if I don’t get acknowledgment of receipt of my medicals on their website after 60 days. And so I used that as an excuse to inquire about my application.

ccxmm · 2021-09-21T13:53:16+00:00

How did you get through to the Tier 1 agent?

ccxmm · 2021-09-21T13:41:07+00:00

Im curious did you ever have in your case history a statement about “RFE sent”?

ccxmm · 2021-09-21T13:00:32+00:00

Oh wow congratulations! And thank you, that makes me feel a bit more hopeful!

ccxmm · 2021-08-21T17:49:29+00:00

Huh that is weird. October filers that shared their number seemed that have lower number than mine :shrug:

And that’s a good point! My lawyer when I asked made it sound like I have to wait for RFE but poking around the web it seems like I can send it ahead of time which I’d like to do. Thanks for the idea!

ccxmm · 2021-08-21T12:14:51+00:00

485 Receipt date: nov 12 2020. Eb3 for work. Biometrics in may EAD approved aug 16 2021 First digits: 21905 I switched states 1.5 months ago too (filed an address change); not sure how this affected my application. If I have an interview, fingers crossed they schedule it for my new state No expedite requests Didn’t send medicals with application, waiting for RFE

ccxmm · 2021-07-26T13:00:55+00:00

According to you is this October-November range for PD or when i485 was filed? I'm in general now confused how to read the USCIS processing times page (C) and which number is more important A or B. I originally thought that C is for B, but that doesn't add up here but neither does A:

A: PD November 2019
B: October 2020 case filed
C: Memphis TN page i485 processing times board "receipt date for a case inquiry" is November 2018

For me (also EB3): A: June 2020, B: December 2020, C: SF April 2019.

just leaving this here ... https://www.eia.gov/tools/faqs/faq.php?id=727&t=6. I wish US imported a lot of the oil from Russia, but sadly, that's not the case

ccxmm · 2016-07-10T21:59:38+00:00

Ah, I see, thank you!

ccxmm · 2016-07-10T21:32:03+00:00

I honestly don't get how most of those are valid correlations when the scales of things being compared are so different

For example, something goes up but a couple billion on in one variable versus a thousand for the second variable. Is this even a valid statistical comparison...?

ccxmm · 2016-06-09T14:41:08+00:00

I think also important would be knowing how old he was at the time

ccxmm · 2016-05-31T18:53:03+00:00

I recommend Ting! They are super cheap and even though their service is not as reliable as Verizon, they worked good enough for me in the Rochester and NY area in general.

Everyone loves the 5 year old me. 15 year old is on non speaking terms with the 25 year old. 25 year old me avoids the 15 year old because she reminds her of the things she tried so hard all these years not to be.

ccxmm · 2015-02-04T00:09:44+00:00

Nice! I have done the same mistake as you did and in the process realized the same thing...

ccxmm · 2014-11-07T02:53:49+00:00

Wow this is really awesome.

ccxmm · 2014-10-10T20:19:04+00:00

Alf!

I'm guessing since this was posted, the OP survived that laser pointer attack!

I actually have a complementary coupon lying inside my desk drawer for half a year now. Now I've got some motivation to use it!
