US Embassy and Consulate Discussioncase status
Hi, You know i e mailed the embassy they answer the very next day. I think their email is the fastest way to know about a visa. My fiance was going every week to get the visa but they never had it and they kept telling him to go back the next week. He is from Matanzas and it is too far from Habana so, after calling and calling and having no luck with that, I decided to email and they responded the very next day. I emailed them every 2 days just to find out if the visa was ready and they would tell me that it was not until, one day after a month 1/2 they emailed me after i sent them the nastiest email ever lol and they finally said it was there ready for pick up.

AFTER SHE CALLED HIM IN SHE ASKED HIM IF HE WAS PLANNING TO TAKE HIS SON TO THE USA AND HE SAID WHEN HE TURNS 18 AND IF HE WANTS TO BE IN THE US HE WILL CLAIM HIM THEN, SHE LOOKED AT THE AFFIDAVIT THEN, STAMPED THE PAPERWORK AND SAID CONGRATULATIONS YOU HAVE BEEN APPROVED AND GAVE HIM A SLIP TO PICK UP VISA ON WEDNESDAY THE 15TH.

CanadaQuick Question

I'm pretty sure he'll need to apply for a B2 visitors visa to the U.S. from the U.S. consulate in Vancouver since it's the one he's currently closest to.

Thanks!

My uncle has a Canadian Tourist Visa. He arrived in Vancouver yesterday (from the Philippines). My question is, is it possible for them to visit the US? If so, what do they have to do?

Thanks.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresWhen will I have K-1 Visa in hand after interview??
My fiance and I have an interview Sep20th and I need to put in vacation time from work. I need to know more or less how long will it take for us to have the K-1 visa in our hands so I know how long I need to take off from work. The interiew will be in the Dominican Republic.


richie84MaleDominican Republic2010-07-26 09:54:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresSomeone pls help!!!!!!!
455.00 for I-129f application fee when sending package. 350.00 (plus other small fees) on the day of the interview.

Good thing I read this entry. I thought the fee was $455. I wrote a check for $455 because I am planning to send the package this week. I guess I need to re-write the check for $350? hey, nothing wrong with saving $105 :)

Has they cashed your check yet? If they have you can get a copy of the cancelled check from your bank and see what is the receipt #s they assigned your petitions. If can't get a copy of it or if it's not legible, then you can call the USCIS so they can give them to you over the phone. If they haven't cashed the check there isn't much you can do until they do so.

Diana



We actually sent in the I-130 first, and received a NOA1 for that, and they were obviously saying "thank you for your payment, etc." About a month later we sent in the I-129f in conjunction with the I-130, basically to see which one gets approved faster. This is the typical process, you do not pay for the I-129f within the K3 visa ordeal. But still no NOA1?!?!? I thought we would at least get something now (over a month later) saying "thanks we got your stuff, working on it!"
I'm so worried this is going to take a lot longer than I expected...I haven't heard anything, no touches since May 5/08....how do you even know when they should be working on your visa application anyways? I checked the USCIS web site, but it's a little confusing in regards to the dates....



The process is VERY LONG as far as Vermont Service Center state they are NOW processing September of 2007 applications and January of 2008 I-129f.

Get ready, it is a LONG wait to get out of the USCIS, my guess is to get my I130 moving it will take me till maybe another 7 months

Look around at people time lines, everyone is playing the waiting game

Yeah when I did it the second time it worked but I got a message that the service center I'm trying to reach is closed now. I will try again tomorrow if I have time during work.

I'm thinking that one of their employees that has all these delayed applications might be on vacation or some kind of sick leave and they have our application, mamalou's, monica's, birch's and a few others still waiting. huh.gif

Ah well, I can't do anything about it, therefore I shall stop bit-ching for now and go shopping. I already had my chocolate, I am now moving on to shopping jest.gif



I don't understand what im doing wrong.... I keep trying but it kept asking for my case number and when I did that and finished pressing the numbers suggested "to dial" and it won't get me anywhere... as soon as I call and the machine starts talking I start following the "dial" numbers suggested but nothing.... am I missing something?


When it asks for reciept number are you also punching the numbers for the EAC part? You have to punch those numbers in as well. Besides, they're closed now. Maybe that is why. You have to call before 5pm EST to get someone in Vermont.


Thanks for the breakdown... i actually did it before 5pm but this is how it went....


I called the number immediatly pressed 1 than it started talking and i pressed 2 than it asks for my case number so i punch it in ***********05 ok so after that it says your case was recieved on blah blah blah and than i hit 1, when i hit the one it says please hold while we transfer you to customer service and sent me to the not so helpfull customer service headbonk.gif

Thanks again for the help guys!!! Im praying for an approval soon innocent.gif

Hello, my slowly dwindling, but still lovely, K-3 family

(LOL they are becoming the NVC K-3 family!)

Apparently, no dabkah for me today LOOOL rolleyes.gif

I called the customer service center and spoke to an immigration officer (so they say) but she started reading me the February 26th line. I used the options that someone posted in another post on how to get a hold of someone, but it was not correct. I didn't get to enter my reciept number or anything. It took me to someone for application requests LOL. Then they transferred me to an officer.

When she started reading the "Your application was recieved April 23rd and is showing as pending. We are now processing Feb 26th..." I said:
"Maam, please, don't go any further. You're reading something to me that I can find on the internet myself, and that is posted information from September 2008. Now I know several people who have called VSC to check the status of their applications. They did not recieve the email updates for approval. However, once they spoke to someone in VSC their status showed as approved. They were told that the computer system was not yet updated to reflect those approvals. So I would like to speak to someone in VSC to see if that is also the case with my petition. Can I please speak to someone there?"

She said:
"I'm sorry maam, I don't have the ability to do that. To get someone at VSC on the phone? No, I don't have that ability."

So I thanked her and then hung up. I tried calling the DHS number. Keep getting the deputy's voicemail. I haven't left a message yet. I have a contact in DHS. I think I'm gonna have my mom call him and ask him to look at my stuff for me. I'm not too down about it yet. But if there is an approval on its way, I would like to know so I can start organizing all our papers and make my appointment in advance with the useless lawyers.

That is my update. More later!

Much love to my K-3 family!!!


Narina,
Here is the way to get in touch with VSC.

1-800-375-5283

Hopefully this will help you.

Good luck!




I tried this but after I hit the 1 2 and than 1 it says that to enter my eac number..... than it said there system is having difficulties ???

Hi, as all you know i dont really post on here but i will tell you this. I have done this request and it took me NO WHERE!

I got 3 petitions that were filed after me and approved before me and sent it to my congressman and to USCIS in D.C. (after this information being requested to me from a so called "supervisor") and i got the same response twice...


we are currently processing 2/2 blah blah blah


Im just praying that the processing times change to mid april this month.... I doubt it VERY much though sad.gif
