And filing AOS late is not a serious problem, as long as you married within 90 days (even if you married late, that's fixable, but you'd need to file more expensive paperwork).

The only issue is that the K-1 status expires after 90 days. After expiration and until you file for AOS, you're out of status. If you have any encounters with immigration officials while out of status, there could be serious problems. Technically, you're deportable. So don't bring yourself to the attention of immigration officials.

Once you file for AOS, you'll have pending legal status, which means you have the legal permission to stay in the US until they make a decision on your AOS case. So file for AOS as soon as possible.

And once you have filed for AOS, the fact that the filing was late won't affect the ability of them to approve your case.

This is what happens when you listen to the government. When your petition was approved, it was sent to the NVC and from there to the consulate in Ireland, itarrived about 3 weeks later.

This petition is not yet approved.

According to her timeline it is.

Oh Good, Thank you guys

That is a relief.

i was thinking of calling the embassy tomorrow to see if they have any info on the case, Do you think it would be a good idea to go ahead and do that?? or should i just wait??

Thanks again, you guys are awesome. <3

I've always read they are very accommodating at that consulate.

I don't think it would hurt you a bit to give them a ring.

becca.. the original post was made weeks before the petition was actually approved. The OP confused NOA1 for NOA2. Thinking her Sept filing date was her approval date.

She is now approved and hopefully understands that the process is now moving foward.

The Usembassy , will not help you . They have no record of you even applying for a K-1 Visa , and even if they did they dont care . The fact is the United States Government does'nt care about anything , but themselfs . (1) If your Form I-129F, Petition for Alien Fianc'e(e) even gets aproved in USCIS , after the current processing time . You still have to wait , just like everyone else (2) Then it gets forwarded to the NVC , and you have to wait longer . (3) NVC forward your papers to the Usembassy of your alien fiancee place of residents , and you have to wait some more again . (4) You wait for your fiancee to receive his/her K-packet , then you have to wait some more (5) You take the Medical Exam , then you wait some more (6) You pay all the required fees , then you wait some more (7) You have to wait untill you the american citizen receive the letter from the usembassy , that states they are ready for you too secudule for interview at the Usembassy . Then you wait some more (8) Then your fiancee goes to the Visa Interview , then you wait some more . (9) Then after the Visa Interview you wait some more , for the Visa Processing . (10) The Passport will be sent too your fiancee home through guarentee currier service , then you wait some more . (11) Then your fiancee gets her visa , then you wait some more after you order plane tickets , then you wait some more (12) Then he/she arrives in USA , then you wait some more (12) You apply to get married , then you wait some more (by law 10 working days to get married after you apply )

This process , is'nt for someone that has no patients , and you have to wait . Same as everyone else

Ah. My bad.

Then your fiancee goes to the Visa Interview , then you wait some more.

At some consulates, if your fiancee goes alone, you'll receive a 221(g) and wait months while trying to perform damage-control, or you'll be denied outright, and perhaps wait forever.
