Case Study: From Mumbai to Seattle Priya & John’s Spousal Visa Success
How Nexus Point Consultants helped an international couple turn a two-year separation into a story of hope, action, and reunion—despite pandemic, delays, and complex paperwork.
Background: Love Across Borders
Priya (Indian national) and John (US citizen) married in 2021. After their wedding in Mumbai, Priya remained in India while John returned to his job in Seattle. COVID travel bans, missing paperwork, and a denied visitor visa made their separation painful—and complicated. That’s when they turned to Nexus Point for professional guidance.
Our Approach: Step-by-Step Support
Step 1: Deep-dive Consultation & Eligibility
We mapped their unique history: long-distance photos, chats, financial support, and a multi-faith ceremony. Our team created a personalized visa “roadmap”—identifying missing evidence and the optimal visa route (CR-1).
Step 2: Building a Strong Documentary File
Our specialists assembled a robust evidence pack—wedding photos, guest lists, remittance records, WhatsApp/Zoom logs, travel history, and family affidavits. We translated documents and resolved a name mismatch in Priya’s passport.
Step 3: Preparing and Filing I-130 & I-130A
We filled and cross-checked all forms, drafted clear relationship statements, and filed with USCIS. Our expert checked every detail to avoid the common errors that cause delays.
Step 4: Overcoming Setbacks
USCIS issued an RFE (“Request for Evidence”) for additional relationship proof. Within days, our team responded with extra wedding affidavits, chat logs, and video call screenshots. No further queries arose.
Step 5: Interview & Final Approval
Our consultants coached Priya for the Mumbai embassy interview—prepping her for tricky questions and document checks. The interview went smoothly; the officer was satisfied with their evidence and Priya’s honest answers. Visa was granted within three weeks!
“We tried applying ourselves but got stuck for months. Nexus Point’s attention to detail, patient explanations, and 24/7 support gave us hope—and results. We’re finally together in Seattle! — Priya & John, May 2025”
Outcome: From Uncertainty to Reunion
Full Visa Approval: CR-1 Spousal Visa issued—no further delays.
Time Taken: 13 months (despite COVID and RFE)
Zero Refusals: No denials, no rejections—thanks to thorough documentation and coaching.
Now Together: Priya landed in Seattle in May 2025, welcomed by John and his family. Green Card followed within 6 weeks.
Ongoing Support: We continue to help with Green Card queries and travel permissions.
