Who Can Get a V Visa?

Spouses (husbands and wives) and unmarried children under the age of 21 of lawful permanent residents may apply for V visas under these conditions:

Lawful Permanent Resident (LPR) petitioner MUST have filed the I-130 immigrant visa petition on or before December 21, 2000;

Priority date is at least three years old;

Priority date is not current;

Applicant has not already had an immigrant visa interview or been scheduled for an interview;

Petition is not already at an embassy or consulate abroad; and

Applicant is otherwise eligible as an immigrant

The priority date is the date the US Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) received the petition.

How Do I Know If My Family Members Are Eligible for V Visas?

The National Visa Center (NVC) sends a letter to potential V visa applicants and the petitioner. This letter tells you, the potential V visa applicants, to contact the embassy or consulate where you can apply. You will get information about setting up a V visa appointment. When you contact the embassy or consulate, you must have this information with you:

your full name as on the petition and on your passport;

your date and place of birth;

your nationality; and

your mailing address and telephone number

How Will the Embassy or Consulate Know That the Applicant Is Eligible for a V Visa?

The applicant’s name appears in the Department of State’s computer system. That is how the embassy or consulate abroad knows that the person is eligible for a visa.

A V Visa Applicant Is Also an Immigrant

You, the V Visa applicant, have an immigrant visa petition which your parent or spouse has filed for you. Therefore, you must meet some of the requirements of an immigrant visa. Some of the usual requirements of the nonimmigrant visa are not required. The consular section will tell you what to bring to the interview.

Applying for a Visa

You, the V visa applicant must contact the embassy or consulate where you will apply for a V visa. The consular section tells you of the specific requirements of the visa and schedules an interview. During the interview process, an ink-free, digital fingerprint scan will be taken. In general, the following is required:

Current, valid passport

Two copies of Form DS-156 http://travel.state.gov/visaforms.html

DS-3052 http://travel.state.gov/visaforms.html Non-Immigrant V visa application form

Police certificates from all places lived in since the age of 16

Birth certificate

Marriage certificate for spouse

Death and divorce certificates from any previous spouse for both the petitioner and the applicant

Medical examination (except vaccinations)

Proof that the LPR petitioner is maintaining his/her permanent resident status in the United States

Two nonimmigrant visa photos http://travel.state.gov/photorequirement... (two inches/50 X 50 mm square, showing full face, against a light background)

Proof of financial support (Form I-134 Affidavit of Support, and/or other documents may be requested.) Select Form 1-134 http://uscis.gov/graphics/formsfee/forms... to go to the Department of Homeland Security, USCIS Website for this form.

Nonimmigrant visa application fee (MRV fee)

Answer 2

Not sure if it'll work for you. I found this:

To be eligible for a V visa applicants need to meet the following conditions:

    *      The lawful permanent resident must have filed an immigrant visa petition for his/her spouse on or before December 21, 2000

    *      The alien spouse must have been waiting three years since the filing of the petition and  not yet been scheduled for an immigrant visa interview

Though the site didn't specifically say "and,"  I think that's the intent. So if you filed the petition before December 21, 2000 *and* your wife has been waiting more than three years, then she may qualify for a V visa.

Without knowing when you filed, it's hard to give you a better answer.

There is an address to write to and a lot more information. Good luck with this V visa. It's new to me, but seems like a good thing for everyone.

Answer 3

The wait is just over 5 years.  The wife has 2 more years to wait.

Answer 4

you need to clarify your question....

I dont understand what you are asking
