Do tell us when you receive your visa if it says K3 or CR1/IR1. Be very interesting if it is a K3 class visa!

K-3 Spousal Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsDoes anybody know how to track my visa delivery?

US Embassy will send it via 2GO to your current address listed at US Embassy
 
check you status at CEAC, if stated issued wait for at least a day
 
go to 2GO website and check their tracking using your passport number or your MNL200........
 
 







I did not sign any 2go form at the embassy..
I also check 2go website using my passport and case number but it says "invalid"..

There's no need to worry. It often takes two or three weeks.



I was worried because i read some forums here and they said some got it 4 days, some 6 days.. Mine ks 7 days now..

K-3 Spousal Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsK3 visa received today!

Got an email from embassy this morning telling me they are ready to process our k3 visa and they have sent a letter out with instructions. Mharvian, did you have to pay the $240 fee at the embassy? Just waiting on the letter which I might receive tomorrow, it was only sent out today. Have everything ready. So excited.

i paid $240 but not in the embassy.. i paid it on a bank then showed them the receipt on my interview.. you need it before you can schedule an interview appointment.

I suggest doing that asap. Youre wasting time and money otherwise.

myhubby went home here with me so we were not able to contact NVC. anyways bynextweek were already in US.

I'm losing hope daily. :(

Dont lose hope.. Just keep on praying and at the same time follow up your petition..
MharvianFemalePhilippines2014-03-12 09:04:00
K-3 Spousal Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsK3 visa received today!

Have you informed them that you already have your K3? Because you should be adjusting your status not continuing processing for the CR1 visa which would require an interview abroad. Granted with a K3 you have multiple entries but the point was to get to the USA faster was it not?

we havent inform them yet..
MharvianFemalePhilippines2014-03-07 00:07:00
K-3 Spousal Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsK3 visa received today!

did you also get a letter from nvc saying that they are ready to process you immigrant petition and that you have to pay for AOS? just like you, i am on k3 path. nvc sent me a letter saying that they already forwarded my i-129f papers to the us embassy in manila. that was dated january 28. we already filled up and submitted the form ds-160. now, i am confused as to which one to follow up.

im going to enter US with my k3 visa.. just this week march 3, NVC sent me a mail regarding my immigrant visa. they ask me to fill up ds-261 choice af agent.. after completing the form they sent another mail saying they are now ready to process my immigrant visa after paying the AOS.

WOW  CONGRATS ! ! ! ! !   great to see a K3 approved and VISA in Hand.
Can you give us a little background ?.. I see your I-130 was approved first. How did you manage to get the K-3 and not have it closed???
 
 
Im so happy to see this post because I am praying for our K-3 to get through.




My I-130 was approved first in USCIS. We always call NVC to get a case number but they keep on sying that it is not yet on their system.. until one day when my hubby called NVC they told him that they still dont have the I-130 but they do have the 129F on their system.. Few days later he called again and then told him that the case was already forwarded to my consulate.. Almost a month, i receiived a letter from the US embassy saying im eligible for medical and interview.

USCIS Service CentersAfter receiving I-797? What's next?
I did what you said and the senator's representative told me that they will follow it up to the senator! Thank you for your help guys! I'm hoping senator can help me.
MharvianFemalePhilippines2013-03-20 00:55:00
USCIS Service CentersAfter receiving I-797? What's next?
Thanks. It says the i still need to wait for 4-6 months before i can receive a NOA2. Is there anything i can do to expedite the process in USCIS? Is it possible to call them and explain my situation? As i've mentioned my wife is 4 months pregnant now. Should i give up thinking she can give birth here?!
MharvianFemalePhilippines2013-03-18 22:20:00
USCIS Service CentersAfter receiving I-797? What's next?
I received a I-797 that says my I-130 application was received. Its been a month and i haven't heard anything. Is there something i need to do after receiving the i-797 or should i sit back and wait? My wife is currently 4 months pregnant and i want her to give birth here in Hawaii. I miss her a lot but i couldn't do anything.. I don't know what to do now!

K-3 Spouse Visa Process & ProceduresK-3 Visa is it still an active or an obsolete visa?

According to what we have read before it says that this visa shortens the time of separation of love-ones. After filing the I-130 last March 29 we did try to file this K3 (I-29F) Visa last July. After we got the NOA 1, we didn't hear any progress on this visa. 
 
My husband called the tier 2 yesterday inquiring on our I-130 petition and the lady said our case it is still at NBC and it might take a year before the approval. cray5ol.gif


My hubby filed the I-130 on February 2013 then the I-129F on April.. The I-130 was approved in USCIS October 2, 2013 while the I-129F was December 3, 2013.. My hubby keep calling the NVC to get the case number for the I-130 since it was the first one approved but they keep on saying that it was not yet on their system. When we found out that the USCIS already approved the I-129F my hubby called the NVC again to ask for a case number. they told him that they still dont have the I-130 on their system but they do have the I-129F(K3) so we get the case number for it. they also told him that they sent a mail to my hubby and that the K3 was already forwarded to uS Embassy Philippines.
We're now still waiting for the NVC mail to know what were going to do next.

Well even if they send to embassy there should be a case number. Did they guve him a case number#? And are you sure he called NVC? Not USCIS?


Yes the NVC gave him a case number for the I-129F. I'm also sure that it was NVC he called and they told him they forward the I-129F (K3) to Us Embassy Philippines. As of now were waiting for the mail they sent to my hubby to know what were going to do next.

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & Proceduresplease.. i really need help!

instead of talking with the first human that answers the phone,yer USCitizen petitioner should be talking with an ISO, a Tier 2 Human,and try to ascertainif the casefile is still sitting in the building at some USCIS office,or if it was actually shipped out to NVC and if so, on what day.As ISO can see more 'in the system' than the first human that answers the phone.So, tell yer USCitizen Petitioner Human to call in again, and ask for an ISO, then find out exactly where the casefile is during that phone call.Go Get Em, and Good Luck !




He called USCIS and asked for an ISO and they told him the case was already sent to NVC 30 days after they approvedit, Nov 2.. then my husband called NVC but they said its still not on their system.
