Travelling for waiting for interview?
Hello Everyone,
My UK husband (I'm US) and I are applying for a spouse based visa for him to return to the US with me (I've been living in the UK for a year now). We're at the point where he has his medical scheduled for next week and we're waiting for an interview date. However, its crucial that I return home very soon as my grandfather is very, very ill. Can I return to the US without him and take care of family stuff while he's waiting for the interview and then him travel over separately?
So confused

One potential drawback might be that if the consulate wants extra info it could take longer for you to get it to him, but it sounds like your family concerns outweigh that.

Re: Travelling for waiting for interview?
It's OK for the USC to leave any time after the I-130 has been adjudicated (approved in this case)--sooner in some cases.
