apply green card for spouse?
Question:

I'm a green card holder and currently applying a green card for my wife who is living /w me in the states. Recently I make address change and when i get the address change comfirmation from the NVC (national visa center), they stated that my wife need to process her application at an american consule at my home country. But when I first apply, i already stated on the application that she currently reside in US. Does she really have process her application out of the country? What should I do?

Answer:

Does she have a visa that allows her to stay in the US? If not, she must wait outside of the US until her immigrant visa becomes current.

she have H1 visa right now, should i contact NVC to have her application process in the country rather that out of the country? and her priority date is current at this point.

If she has an H1B, there is no need to leave the US until the spousal visa is processed/current. I am not sure what NVC meant, does she just have to pick up her greencard stamp in another country? Maybe somebody else can clarify this.

First of all what is the status of your wife? There are different rules that apply to Citizens as to Green Card holders (permanent residents)...you may need a lawyer. How did your wife enter, on what status? Need more info.

yes, she has H1B, That's what i'm not sure of weather if she need to process her green card in another country, because the letter from NVC (National Visa Center) mention that her process information will be send to american consuler at my home country..

My wife have H1B visa and i'm permanent resident.
