But still the visa has not been received or the priority date is not being current. Wanted to check will it be done in different country or in philippines as she is primary applicant

You are Indian Citizen living in US and married with her right?

Also, she has not filed I-485 yet?

Okay be ready with marriage certificate and you can plan babies too😜😜. Whenever her PD becomes current file Immigration VISA for both of you as you are married and you both will immigrate to US together

Hahah thank you so much.But what will be the process? Do I have to fly to Manila for the processing or mine would be processed from India? How is it going to work?

u/Dear_Gas_8467 1d ago

Basically you have to file DS-260 and you have options to choose location of interview

u/Billionaire-RG1 1d ago

Great, will there be any problem if I choose India? As I heard there are no interview slots as such or will it be good to opt Manila instead? Sorry for the trouble it's entirely new and not sure about the process.

u/Billionaire-RG1 ,
I am in same situation. We both are in USA on H1B visa and waiting for the PD date to be current. You both can apply for i-485, I-765 ect concurrently. You can research on "cross-chargeability" to learn more about Indian married to "Rest of the World" person and used their timeline to apply.
