The DS-260 is your form, so you can fill out and submit it on your own.

Re: Official I-601A Thread
Call NVC, give them the USCIS case number and see what they say. If you get answer "We got it but we haven't processed it yet" then wait. If you get an answer that they didn't get it yet, call USCIS...

This place is pretty dead and honestly most DACAers who could jump on the I-601A already did.

Pretty sure you don't get anything special for an I-601A, only an approval notice.

I think you'll need a medical examination but you don't need other documentation if it's not applicable. E.g. you only need police/court records if you were ever convicted of a crime abroad.

There's no requirement to work for the employer sponsoring you until after you get your green card. So if the employer is willing to eventually rehire you the petition remains viable.

Re: Official I-601A Thread

Re: Official I-601A Thread
No, the actual immigrant visa is valid for 180 days from date of issue. Meaning that she has 180 days from the day the visa is issued to return to US to become an LPR.

Immigrant visa is valid for 180 days. She can take a vacation before returning but most people just make a bee-line back.

Re: Official I-601A Thread
You call NVC. Give them the USCIS receipt number.
NVC tends to take a bit these days to actually receive it (USCIS's fault) and to actually process it.
