Hello -

I don't know much, so your feedback will be greatly appreciated.

The NVC says that my case is completed, as of March 7. However I have not got any packet 4. I have applied for consular processing in Montreal.

What does case completed mean? Is my application approved?
By when can I expect the interview?

Thanks

Case complete means that your file has been approved and it just waits in queue for the interview. You will have to see the visa bulletin to see where ur case stands.

For e.g. in my case, my file was closed in September, 2005. I had filed for GC in November, 2004 through counsalar processing (Montreal). In April bulletin, my case is current, so hopefully my interview should come in April.

THx.

Thanks.

I am EB2, India-born but will be availing of cross-chargeability since my wife was born outside of India. Do I have to specially tell them about this? I'm assuming my lawyer would have done the needful, but I don't know for sure

I am not sure about that. I guess your lawyer must have taken care of it.
 
Time for interview date - Montreal (CP)!

My status is current as per April newsletter. Can somebody tell me when can I expect to receive my interview letter?

Thx.

If your employer has sponsored you then yes, they most probably will do. I haven't got my interview yet, but reading about it indicates that that yes they do.
 
Can anybody answer??

:rolleyes: Hi there :) thanks for the reply , just another question : did anyone of u filed I-485 for consular processing??or is this just for adjustment of status in the U.S ??

The other question is : is anybody else here who has approved I-140 ?

for counsular processing u don't need I485. Your status is adjusted immideately after u get ur GC.

Once ur I140 is approved, u wait till u rcase is completed, and then wait again till ur case becomes current. In my case, my I140 was approved in feb 2005 and file closed in sep 2005, my case became current this mth. I am EB1, Ind born.

thx.

Well, my lawyer told me. I think on your I-140 approval notice there is a number of National Visa center (NVC), which you can call after 90 days of approval. BTW the number of NVC is 603-334-0700.

Hope it helps.

It depends on how long you overstayed. You should seek advice from a good attorney before going for interview.
 
I have a question and was hoping someone could help.


Can a CP get denied due to unauthorized employment by the spouse?
I worked briefly (2 months) in 1998 while being a "undocumented B-1 visitor" (since I am a Canadian citizen). My wife's company is applying for her green card and I am wondering if my unauthorized employment is going to create a problem? Do the consular officers have access to SSA and IRS information and would they be able to see my earnings in 1998?

All the posts I have read so far mention tax returns and so forth for the primary beneficary and only for ~5 years or from when they started work. So I am not sure if this will be an issue?

Who knows about CP location? Please come in.

Dose Anyone knows if an international student with study permit in Canada can select Canada instead of his home country as his CP review location?
 
Has anyone interviewed in Montreal lately (or will be interviewed soon?) Now that Eb-3 ROW is moving, I'm current in October--hoping for a December interview.

I assume the experience is more or less the same as it was a year or two ago, but any advice or updates would be appreciated.
 
Anybody done CP recently?

JUst got EB2 LC approved recently. HAve filed for 140 premium processing (mailed out on oct 2) Expecting approval sometime this or next week. Have requested CP. Can anyone share their experience regarding CP?

1) How much time on avg for NVC to finish their paperwork and approve the case?

2) what happens after that? How much more time to final interview date?

Any response will be greatly appreciated.
