When does Namecheck happen?

[atlantakid123 0]

Hello,

I am US citizen (The petitioner), and my wife is the beneficiary. Her visa interview is scheduled for Jan 17th in Delhi US embassy. I heard from someone that namecheck can delay the whole process for a long time.

I am trying to understand when in the process of I-130 application does namecheck happen?

1) Has it already been happen or

2) Will it happen after the interview and before visa is issued or

3) Will it happen after she comes here in US

I will appreciate any guidance

Thanks!!

The check for her will usually happen before the interview, but sometimes if they need to go into more details, there is also AP (Additional Processing such as name and security checks) after the interview.

Hello,

Thanks for your reply. Is there a way I can check if the namecheck has already happened?

Thanks!
