K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports	I-129F FIVE Months and NO answer?	I understand your concern, because I have passed through that already. Don't worry. My US fiance applied for K 1 visa last year on January and till August there was no response. However, in August we received approval, and things went very fast. On September I was invited on interview, in one week I got my visa)))) So, they said, that overall process lasts 9 months, so that's true. They do everything exactly on time, believe me. It seems sometimes that case is frozen, but nothing wrong happens. You must be patient, all will be done on time, in 4 months you will be together. Good luck))) All will be OK!	marina.sar	Not Telling	Armenia	2013-02-21 03:57:00

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports	Another dumb question	Overall process took 9 months. Started on January 2012, on August received approval (before it, as you know, "Initial Review" has been frozen). On September I was called to interview, in one week I received visa.	marina.sar	Not Telling	Armenia	2013-02-23 17:57:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	K 2 visa	I am very grateful to you for all responses. As I see, I can call to our embassy in Armenia and give them my case number to schedule interview for my son. Is it enough (simply to call) or I should fill application or something else? I received my K 1 visa on September 11, 2012. On October 14, 2012 I entered USA, and I had 90 days to got married and apply for adjustment of status. So now I received work authorization and social security number. It is only 4th month I am here. If it's faster to proceed K 2 visa, it will be great, because time is very important. Next year my son will be called to military service for 2 years so I am afraid this can create additional obstacles to him to immigrate. If he can stay here while his case proceeds, it will be great.	marina.sar	Not Telling	Armenia	2013-02-22 21:22:00

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	K 2 visa	You have given me confidence. You explain very clearly because I was really confused reading all laws and regulations. On May it will be one year as his dad applied. So I think case will proceed faster and I will breathe freely. And I have a time till September to see how things go on. You are very kind, thank you a lot. Good luck!!!	marina.sar	Not Telling	Armenia	2013-02-21 00:01:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	K 2 visa	It actually might be quicker and easier if your son's father does it. Once he is a citizen, because your son is under 21 he would be an Immidiate relative, thus should get everything within a year. So if his dad is a citizen in May, your son might get his papers by New Year once his case is upgraded .... K 2 I am not sure about maybe someone else can comment on that. Good luck! Thank you for response, you help me a lot)))	marina.sar	Not Telling	Armenia	2013-02-20 16:37:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	K 2 visa	Hello everyone! My name is Marine. I am from Armenia. I will appreciate a lot if anyone answers my question concerning K 2 visa for my son. I am in USA through K 1 visa. We got married with my US husband Nov. 2012 and my case is in process, as I was notified. My son is 18 years old (n 2 months he will be 19) and he is now in Armenia. I did not apply for K 2 visa for him by two reasons: I was said I had 1 year to apply for K 2 visa for him and I thought I would have enough time to find job and settle up here. And second, his biological father, my ex-husband, has been here for 5 years (he won Green card). He applied for his son on May, 2012 to immigrate to USA. Since he is green card holder, his case seems being frozen on "initial review" status for almost 10 months. I talked to my ex-husband and he said, he would apply for citizenship at the end of February and expected to become citizen up to May. Under such circumstances our son's case will speed up. He advised me not to worry and wait till May. But I am still hesitated whether apply for K 2 visa to proceed (my K 1 visa will expire on September) or to wait. So, my question is what way is faster and advantageous for my son? I am anxious because next year my son will be called to military service for 2 years and after it he will be over 21 and will not be considered as a minor. Please, if someone has information how does it take to obtain K 2 visa and how to do it, write, please. I will anticipate any response.	marina.sar	Not Telling	Armenia	2013-02-19 22:25:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	follow to join, K2 visa	My ex-husband (my son's biological father) also applied for him last year (I-130). Petition was approved on June 19, 2013 and sent to NVC. The same day his father became citizen. Unfortunately, petition hasn't been received by NVC yet. What's the reason of such delay I don't know. We have called many times, they say, just wait or send inquiry request. I have done it, but I am afraid, my son's petition has been lost. that's why I get nervous. Moreover, his father can't upgrade petition as he became citizen because NVC says they have no petition yet. So, I decided to apply for my son on my own, based on my k-1 visa to be sure that, if they lost his case, they could start new one. I try not to waste time moving both directions.	marchik	Not Telling	Armenia	2013-08-17 21:00:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	follow to join, K2 visa	Yes, he was mentioned as my son everywhere it was asked. That time he just turned 18. However, I did not check the box of follow-to-join that time. It seemed to me it was better for him to stay at home as far as I would set up here and find a job. I said interviewer that I would bring my son but did not mentioned follow-to-join. If I send i-824, how long does it take to bring him to US?	marchik	Not Telling	Armenia	2013-08-17 20:51:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	follow to join, K2 visa	Hi everyone!   I immigrated at k-1 visa. We got married, couple weeks ago I received my green card. Now I want to apply for my son. He is 19 and unmarried. I wrote to American Consulate in Armenia where he is, and they said, they closed my case. I am in USA less than 1 year so my son still eligible to apply for his K-2 visa. I started filing i-824, and I have a question. What do they mean of original petition? Do they mean I-129F based on which I received my K-1 visa or last one I-845 Adjustment of status that has been approved recently? Thank you for any response	marchik	Not Telling	Armenia	2013-08-17 18:19:00
