Where K1 applications are archived?

Hi,

An interesting question came to my mind today. My fiancee had filed an I-129F in my behalf a couple years ago which was approved but for some reasons we did not pursue the path and I did not send the packet 3 back to the embassy. We later asked the case to be closed.

She has recently filed a new petition on my behalf, which is also approved, reached embassy and interview date is set. We have asked a different embassy for the interview this time.

Now i wonder if the embassy i am going to have the interview, has previous file and documents with them or not. Where my previous paperwork is stored now? with USCIS? embassy?

It would very likely be kept/stored/archived with USCIS (that's where the petition started and eventually returned to; not DOS/ an Embassy). There are probably computer records that an Embassy/Consulate might have access to though if they feel the need.

If you're worried the previous Embassy would need to send something to the Embassy/Consulate you're going to interview with now, you don't need to worry (nothing like that will need to happen).
