Hi,

Just joined visajourney.com after reading some fantastic heart warming stories. This site has been a pleasure to read over the past couple of weeks, and wanted to join to share my experience. Forms for K1 all submitted, and guess it's just a waiting game now. What is the average waiting time any advice comments would be greatly appreciated.

Kind regards

Mark

Hey Mark!

Welcome to the conga waiting line kicking.gif

Good job on filling out your timeline! If you look at the bottom part it says:

Processing Estimates/Stats : Based on timeline data, your I129f may be adjudicated between June 16, 2012 and July 3, 2012*.

If this date range has passed or your application is past due per USCIS processing timesthen you should consider calling the USCIS to inquire on your petition. If you have been approved please update your timeline.

Hope this helps! good.gif

Welcome to the forum.

The site's statistics are currently showing about 200 -250 average total days to interview for K1, Stats.

You are correct.... it is a waiting game.

Good luck on your visa journey.

On the top right corner of your screen, where your name appears, there's an arrow down.

Select My Settings, then the tab for Profile you'll have a little frame on the left side that says Change my Signature

You'll have place to write it there good.gif
