Well, Im sorry to say that I received 4 letters like that with all different dates and when i called they said we were in AP. I think that letter is generated as soon as the file is entered into the nvc system.

You should still call to check, but im afraid they will say you are still in AP.

For your other question...I THINK it woudl be a rarity for NVC to find some reason to deny the petition after AP. Maybe if they found something wrong with your documents or something on the background checks that you didnt disclose...im just speculating though.

good luck

NVC cannot deny a K1 after approval. Once they get done mucking around they send it to the consulate. Approval or denial following interview happens there. So far, any of us in the main thread on K1's delayed at NVC who were released and sent on have had a successful interview.

yes, you are right. I am agree with you.. They have done and put case # for interview but just delay it to get some more additional info. just hope that all will be over pretty soon

[Brad and Vika 129]

I believe that I have read that NVC can send a case back to USCIS if there is a problem with a name check or something. I will defer to VJers with longer tenure than mine, but I seem to remember reading about a case that was returned because of a name problem or incomplete file. I agree that it is rare though.

that's why we hired a lawyer to avoid such little problems as mistakes in filling. We didn't talk to our lawyer yet and we wait what he will tell us WHY?

And Brad, you told before that someday Vika and you will go to Turkey It's a good idea last summer we have planned it too but because of our little son we delayed it.. About western part of Ukraine, well, the best visiting time is winter because there is a wonderful place for skiing or in summer just make a tour of ancient cities. But I prefer the first

Cool. We went to Lviv in June, and had a week scheduled in Uzlissya resort. Vika got sick and we just stayed in Lviv. A great trip. We really wanted to visit Antalya in January too, but with Vika leaving for the US and all, her family needed the time.

k-3's at VErmont were and are taking at least 7-9 months for approvals. Funny how geographics make such a big difference.

I wont start my CSC vs VSC rant now heh heh

Our whole process will easily drag out to the year mark by the time he gets his interview.

Sorry to hear it. I should have noticed the K-3. It reminds me how good K-1s have it sometimes. It always surprises me when some one posts a question asking if the K-1 or K-3 is better, like they will time the marraige based on the visa timing. I point out the timeline and USCIS disclosed timeframes in response. It must be even harder to wait after you are committed that way.

Thanks Brad.

Ya, some people so base their marriage decisions on the visa timing. If it works for them, thats cool I guess.

I realize this process is hard in any context, but we thought the k3 was supposed to be the fastest route for spouses and designed to unite families faster. not so much anymore. The CR1 is now faster at the service centers.

I just hope VSC speeds it up soon for future filers and no one else has to wait this long for their spouse.

now, I think I'll go call NVC and bug them

I understand you.. we will go to my native town too, to visit my relatives before going to the US. But I think after marriage you can spend time on wonderful Miami beach I am sure Vika will be happy to spend time there. About Antaliya, it's a good idea too, but since you have lived in the USA it will be easier to travel around USA than come back to Europe again. And Vika needs to get Advance Parol for traveling outside of the USA.

Antalya will be post-green card travel for sure. It is mostly me wanting to go there. I also want to see Istanbul, just to say I did it. Vika grew up next door, so Turkey just doesn't get her as excited.
