If you have an approved I-140 and are pursuing your employment-based green card (EB-1, EB-2, or EB-3) through consular processing at a U.S. embassy, there are critical steps and pitfalls you need to know before moving forward. Immigration Attorney John Khosravi of JQK Law breaks down the National Visa Center process, why the Affidavit of Support is NOT required for most employment-based cases, how to properly complete the DS-260, why mailing documents is still required as of April 2026, how to protect aging-out children under CSPA, and what to expect after your embassy interview including administrative processing, the DS-5535, and current travel ban risks. Prepare smarter and avoid costly delays.
