Hello everyone, it's been a while...anyways, I'd like to ask how's the timeline with K-1 right now. My friend will be petitioning his Fiancee and they're both wondering how K-1 Petitions are moving? How many months does it take before the Embassy schedules an interview? Thanks for the reply!!!

:energetic: -Ck-

Mine took 6 mos with a lot of prayers and faith.. ;)

6 months...that's from the time the US Embassy receives the petition from NVC, right??? I thought they'd be faster than K3 coz mine was K3 and it did take 6 months also. Thank you for the reply... :D

It's great to hear from the old-timers. We're glad you're still lurking and posting every now and then.

Updated to add visa receipt date of sweety33 and to congratulate Windchaser. You finally did it, Wind! :dance:

You are the last one of my contemporaries, Wind. Time is passing me by :clock::cry: Time to get myself a crochet book and a rocking chair. I think I'm gonna end up an old maid with the way things are at USCIS and the embassy :lol:

You can add us to the list. Our computer file arrived at the Embassy on or before August 8th but the physical file did not arrive until on or about August 24th. I was told by the embassy staff that our worst case scenario is a December appointment but to expect November, they said they have about 450 K-1s to process and about 150 K-3s at this point. I was told that the only thing that would slow them down is the fact that November has so many holidays. They said they would release the new schedule within the next 2 weeks. I am just passing on the information I was given I hope it is accurate. Maybe someone can double check with the embassy.

Is there a flowchart for K1 visa, specifically for beneficiary in Manila for her portion more detailed than the one in the guide? For example with a detailed list of documents needed to send to the embassy and all the different papers such as NBI clearance, birth certificate, proof of being single etc? Specifically, what is on the list that she will receive in Packet 3? I can't find the "list". We are rushing as much as possible to have her here for Christmas. Any time saving tips and detailed information will be highly appreciated. I have already sent "practice" copies of DS156, DS156K, and DS230 to her along with blanks so she can have those completed and ready to send back to the Embassy via LBC overnight.

Thanks,

Rob

Adding shimmy to the list. Calling on Keith and lovebug, please provide us with Manila case number, same goes to shimmy, too. Thanks Ken & Ara for adding your Manila case number. I can bet that Keith's case number would be 2006-712xxx.

Our little family is growing... and growing... :dancing:

We are waiting for a Police Report from the Bruni Embassy. We are nervous that it won't arrive on time and that it will affect the outcome of the interview.

Please pray that God's grace will prevail!

Rob, click on this link http://manila.usembassy.gov/wwwfivk1.pdf to see Packet 4 (Manila beneficiaries do not get Packet 3). Everything your fiancee will need is listed in this packet.

For medical exams, click on this link http://www.pinoyinfo.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=30 (read post of “sowlful”) to get a general idea of the medical process. Nothing for your fiancee to get nervous about. The physical exam may be a bit embarrassing for some women because the doctor will need to glance "down there" to check for hemorrhoids or venereal disease but the vaccination shots did not hurt.

Adding Robhank and titakey to the list. Welcome to the family!

I think we finally have good news. :P My fiancee said all the papers were correct and they didn't say anything about needing more documents. She never asked if she was approved like i told her she should, so i hope she did get approved. She told me she got a pink slip and payed Delbros, so i'm thinking she did. :dance::thumbs: Going to get the full details tonight :D She went in at 6;30am and didn't get out until after 2pm i think :( She said she was interviewed by a big american female hehe. :wacko:

I wonder how long it will take to send the visa to Bohol. :unsure: Also hope the plane tickets aren't all sold out for mid-Sept. :wacko:

Thanks for the interest in our case for those who sent us E-mails. :thumbs:

gratz wind i would say your approved if you payed debros and recieved a pink slip thats what yove got.

now all we have to do is see PW get hers and all the old timers of this list will be done :P

and why do we have 2 threads about the same thing here ???? confusing thought this was removed 2 manila embassy threads doesnt seem to make sense are we so big we need 2 threads ????

Hi britt:

Yes you could get SS no. after to weeks you arrived in US for your name be already in their system when they check it, but not sure yet for 2 weeks. If they could give you, your card SS no. will be in your "maiden name". When after you get married, it still your SS no. but you need to change it in ur married name "only" if you gonna used your husband last name. "BUT" more often, When you get SS no. after you married SS office won't allow you to do that not until you have ur EAD card or hence your green card already because you gonna be out of status after 90 days or your I-94 expired.

Though I am not eager yet to work or apply for anything, though i havent got difficulties yet in acquiring joints accts / commingling of assets for our AOS requirements. I decided no to get SS and wait till my EAD or AOS approved in my married name, so it less much work for me doing change of name for everything.

Again.... it's still your decision.

gudluck!
