United KingdomDecember Interviewees Please Post If You Get Courier Message

Hi there. Fiancee interviewed on Dec. 16 (this past Monday) and today the CEAC site says "Administrative Processing." She's freaking out about that but I'm thinking it's just a part of the normal process. Am I right? AM I RIGHT? Anyway, I'm giving it until Friday and I hope by then it says "issued" or "ready" or whatever.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsNOA2 Aug27.. Still waiting for case number..

Same NOA2 date, I just called and was told that it has taken 8 weeks for arrival. This is frustrating. Going to visit my fiancee next week, was hoping to have an interview date or at least the second package received by then.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsBeneficiary's address changed, can't get a hold of Embassy

Hi, so, we finally received our NVC case number but I was out of the country visiting her during the time they had it and missed it, as it was sent on the 11th to the London embassy. The person at the NVC told me to call the London embassy to give them the updated address, but lo and behold, I cannot get a hold of a live person whatsoever. Now my concern is that they're going to send it to the wrong address.

 

Is there any option I have here or what?

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsUSCIS to NVC time frame

I've seen anywhere from 2 weeks to 3 months. Ours took 2 and half months... but I've seen that it fluctuates a lot. Hope you get the minimum time!!

 

I called this morning to see if they had received it and no, they have not. I got my NOA2 on August 27th...

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsK-1 visa approved! But.. administrative processing?

Just because one doesn't have middle eastern name doesn't mean they won't get AP, there are many reasons for it.

 

That might have come off wrong. I meant simply that from everything I've read, one of the reasons is for having ties to the Middle East. I don't think that applies here.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsK-1 visa approved! But.. administrative processing?

So I got a call from my fiancee this morning in tears because on our status on the CEAC website, after the interview where she was approved and they took her passport, it says "Administrative Processing." Of course the first thing she did was google it and discovered countless horror stories.

 

She doesn't have a Middle Eastern name, she's always lived in the UK, etc. We seemed to get through the process pretty easily and her interview was really easy.

 

So what should we be expecting from this? I've heard it can last for upward to two weeks or 6 months... neither of which really makes us happy since we've set our wedding date for Feb. 23rd.

After all of that complaining I did last week, I was surprised to find a text message from the USCIS on Tuesday evening suggesting that I check my status... we were approved! I guess now we wait to see when it gets transferred to the NVC and for whatever they sent me to arrive! We're so excited and that's a HUGE load off.

a request for evidence, there was something missing in your petition or something they need before issuing your approval... you'll get all the info in the mail... dont stress too much, mine was as simple as putting "none" in a box i left blank.

 

It doesn't say anything about an RFE on the site, though, it just says:

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsApril Filers 2013 K1

Received the NOA1 on April 25th, a week after we filed, and I've yet to hear anything. Our status says that my "alien fiancee's number has been changed" or something to that extent. I called and asked about it and they said it was a computer error and he's sent a request of inquiry, or something... I'm confused and also upset, it feels like something went wrong. Anyone else have to deal with this? Given, it's within the five month window on the USCIS site, but seeing people here getting theirs in 58 days doesn't make me too confident or happy. We are at the California service center.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresMy foreign fiancee moved, who do I inform?

Well, she doesn't live here. We haven't received our NOA2 yet, we're still waiting on that.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresMy foreign fiancee moved, who do I inform?

So when we filed the I-129f, she had one address, now she is living elsewhere in the same city. Do I need to inform USCIS about this change, and if so where do I send the info? The site only seems to have a form to change my own address, and I'm American.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresPolice certificate address won't be the same as current..

There is no address on the Police Certificate itself

So it won't even matter, then?

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresPolice certificate address won't be the same as current..

So my fiancee only recently moved to her new address and didn't have bills, etc. in her name for her current address when she filed for the police certificate. Tomorrow she'll receive a certificate with her previous address on it. Will this cause any problems at the interview? We've updated the embassy on her new address via email and they've confirmed that they changed it.

 

Thank you!

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresYes, you can visit!

Here's a strange question, but my fiancee is actually coming to live over here with me in the States and I'm going to visit her in two weeks in England, I'll be there for ten days. Last time I went to visit, the officer questioned me for half an hour... and put some kind of 'warning' stamp in my passport with a number and everything. I found out it was a warning stamp when we came back into England from Belgium. He asked me why I had a warning stamp and I said that the last officer was new and asked me every question in the book (Which was true), and he let me in with no problem.

 

What should I say up front so I can avoid this situation? I at first had said that I'm there to visit my friend and then when they asked what kind of friend I said my girlfriend.
