USCIS Service CentersWHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON WITH TSC?????
I got my NOA2 16 days after they accepted the case,we know how EXTREMELY lucky we are... My fiancé called several times and every time they estimated a completely different time lapse, first three months then five to nine... We really did our research and sent, in my opinion, a fairly complete package, we tried to anticipate any possible problems /questions they might had and just sent it along with our package... I guess it all comes down to luck, but you will all be in my prayers!

Thank you and yes today we will be going over all of the forms and all of the potential questions. I have read many reviews on here yesterday regarding Kiev Embassy and see that most people get nice officers. I also noticed a few people get "that one guy" so have to be prepared and hope he wont be there tomm





Good luck! Hopefully you will hear those five magic words to be together with your fiancée! Your visa has been approved! Keep us posted!!

My interview was today and I got APPROVED! They didn't ask for anything else other than what was stated in the package and just barely asked me a few questions about how we met, last time I went to the states to visit him, and where we planned to live! I did have a bit of a hiccup with my fingerprints but all in all it went great! Looking forward to Monday to finally have the visa in my hands!!

Mexico, Latin & South AmericaI havent heard from the embassy

So on december 20th we recieved the letter from the NVC stating that our case had been forwarded to the Guatemalan Embassy as part of the process (our papers were approved in November by the Texas service center). I havent heard anything from the embassy and when i try to contact them by phone all i get is a call center with basic information about non.immigrant visas i cant seen to get someone to ask them specifically about my process, i cant even get anyone on the phone its all programmed stuff.. i wonder if this is a fairly regular time period for the embassy not to contact me or if i should start contacting them.. Has anything like this happened to anyone? what should i do?

Mexico, Latin & South AmericaEl Salvador medical exam
I'm from Guatemala, when I called the doctors office they told me they needed this to get your case number, so if you have any other documentation provided by an official agency with your case number. I would suggest calling the doctors office and telling them what you have! But always check with the doctors office first!

So me and my fiancé just mailed the I-129F from the Usps website it says that it was already delivered. How long does it take for us to get any notification? (We did fill out the form to get notifications through texts and emails)
What notifications will we get and what are the next steps? What now?? Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks everyone!!

This website has helped me throught my entire process but Im slightly confused... I just got our NOA2 on the mail the other day, but I dont know which NVC they sent it too.. where are we supposed to find out? Do they send something else in the mail to the USC or to the Alien fiance.. Where do we call to see if they recieved it or how our process is doing..

 

Any information would be amazing! and greatly appreciated! Thanks again!!

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsYour Alien Registration Was Changed??
My fiancé and I went through the same thing.. If you floor for past topics it will say it doesn't mean anything but I believe it took 20 days from our NOA1 to our NOA2 and in the middle of that we got a text message saying our alien registration number had changed... Don't get your hopes up but for us that was a good sign!! Hope it means the same for you too!!

Thanks for the help you have been to me as well :)  I hope to share the same good news in a couple or few months too. 
 
What questions does the Consular ask during the interview besides asking for the documents listed on the checklist?  Since you know about our situation, do you think it would be best if I attended the interview with my fiancé.  Does the Consular make a big deal about the petitioner not being there?  Others have told me that it is not required.   


They didn't ask me specifically for any additional paperwork even though I had plenty of extra paperwork just in case. The consul asked me when we met, when we started the relationship, when was the last time I went to visit him and something about my fingerprints since I had a little bit of a problem with them. I saw two other k-1 petitioners there that day both alone without their fiancé, I went by myself too and they never asked a question about that (but he did travel recently to Guatemala for the holidays so maybe they saw that) I didn't hear the other interviews but it depends what they see in your file to question you about specific things! So I can't tell you what they will ask, but the consul was really nice overall everyone was super nice! Any other questions you have don't worry I'll answer them!

Congrats. The journey is not end yet. But, you will be with your loved one when started the next step!

I know it's not close to being over, but at least I won't have to face this exhausting process alone! I don't care what I face as long as I have him there with me every step of the way!

Congratulations! It's reassuring to hear how fast you've got yours :)

Thank you! And yes this process was somewhat quick for us! I don't know if it was based on preparation or just plain luck! We would have been done faster if it weren't for the fact that we had to wait two months for the interview!!!

Thank God after 5 months since filing and a lot of stress we finally got the visa! I went to the American embassy at Guatemala to pick up my visa at 3:30pm and got it not even five minutes after getting there I just had to check all the data was correct! And indeed it was!
I thank God for everyone who helped me out at some point! I know I asked several people for their help and almost always got an immediate answer! If it weren't for this website and community I don't know if anything would have turned out so smoothly!
Now it's only 33 days for me and my fiancé to finally be together again! And then we begin the AOS journey (does it ever end???) anyway! Thanks and I'll be sure to help anyone to the best of my abilities and experience, if I can't I'll pray for you!

I never recieved anything through the mail, or email. We had to call the service center non stop and then they sent us an email.. So don't bother changing the physical address just press for them to send you the letter and other documents through EMAIL, if it says it's ready just check your junk folder in your email, if nothing is there keep pushing on the service center

What part of Guatemala does your fiancé live? Those signatures need to be authentic so she should mail the documents to you... There are cafe internet all over Guatemala send her the documents just for her/him to print and sign and then he/she cand send it to you through El Correo guatemaltec, we used it a few times when used to live there and it works although it is kinda slow,.

Ok so im VERY new to this whole k-1 visa and today is the first day i actually sat down in order to tackle the paper work. The first question that came up is 1) Are g-325 forms still requires? if so 2) Is it absolutely necessary that mine (alian fiance) is originally signed, because i would have to sign it here where i am (outside the US) and then mail it to him, which will delay the process... =/

3) Can i take a screen shot of my facebook in order to send as Supporting Evidence, we use our facetime to talk to each other and that doesnt really show much other than he is the only person i pretty much talk to.. Will it help? would it even count?? anyway if anyone could please help!!! Thanks

Not to be mean but seriously who in the world doesn't have access to a blank piece of paper and a pen? Why not ask one of his friends! His family! Unless he lives on a very remote location I don't think anyone on this day and age won't have access to it (I live in Guatemala and that's considered a third world country). Are you sure he is ready and willing to go through this entire process still?

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresGetting Married abroad using Advance Parole
Hey I'm a fellow Chapin member! My fiancé and I submitted our I-129f on October last year after getting engaged in August, we also want to have a religious wedding here in Guatemala because we both have families here and we were hoping to get married by August so that there was enough time! Considering we got our NOA2 EXTREMELY fast we felt it was best to push Back the religious wedding in Guatemala until the end of December to guarantee enough time to get either the advanced parole or the actual green card! What took us the most time was receiving any sort of information about package 3 (they only sent us the instructions after many many calls to the embassy after two weeks after we got the letter from the NVC) and then the next available interview was until March!!! I booked the interview in January so you figure how busy they were. I would strongly recommend you move your wedding date and don't even try to estimate how long things will be until you get your NOA2 then take into consideration if your case has any sorts of problems that might delay the process! If you need any help or info feel free to Private message me and I'll help with what I can! Good luck!

You're not going to get any help calling the embassy since you will speak to a call agent from Transactel, a different company. I am the Guatemalan citizen and did the interview myself, my fiancé at the time couldn't come with me, as long as you know which papers are which (read the name of each document and have them organized in a way when they ask for it you remember, you will be fine... Three other k-1 petitioners where there with me and they didn't have their stuff organized, I was approved. If you have any questions feel free to direct message me.
