I think lots of people canceled or changed their interview dates so we were able to schedule our interview in Feb 2014 instead of April or May of 2014.

Any updates on your case number?

nothing yet... I am going to call again today... I will be calling the rest of this week and some days of next week (not the holidays) haha.... I can't wait to get that case number... it is all we need to schedule the interview... and then check the status so hopefully NVC sends it to the consulate in Ciudad Juarez extremely fast... but there are some holidays in between so we shall see... but anything at the end of January or February is enough.... that would mean 6 months for the entire process, it is not that bad... I am happy you were able to schedule it for February :) don't forget to invite us to the wedding :)

Hello everyone! I started this forum for people that will be looking into and filing a I-129F application for their same sex partners. I have to say that VisaJourney.com is an extremely helpful websit

I really appreciate the Biology lesson Paul Elizabeth, but this is completely off subject. If you have nothing about K-1 Visas or I-129F to post please keep your comments to yourself.

From what I understand, they assign the interview date. Also another small problem is the Embassy/Consulate is slated for a move to another location after the first of the year. They are moving to a location void of hotels and makes it hard to get to. Luckily we have a car in the DR.

Wishing everyone the best for a Happy Holiday Season.

I don't understand how it can be that far away? The stats page says Manila is on avg 50 days from consulate receiving info to interview...can the stats be that wrong? That is scary for us...we are counting on having our interview in London before April.

Interview dates opened up earlier than what was available previously. I think everyone who was affected by Typhoon Haiyan got their interview dates set so all other reserved slots were then released.

The 50 days average you mentioned would probably turn out correct.

Check my timeline for K-1 visa & AOS details

Oh OK! Then it means it was NOT received today.

The next step is to go here: https://ceac.state.gov/CEACStatTracker/Status.aspx? and check the status of your petition (it can be: At NVC, In Transit, Ready).

Once it says it's ready, send an email to IVNaples at state dot gov to ask whether they have received the petition or not. There's a good chance they may not have it yet, but will let you know as soon as they get it (and your "ready" status will also be updated with a new "case created on" date).

Best of luck on getting an interview date for January!

I called NVC, they said they received it today. I went to CEAC and it says I have to wait for instructions.

Then by any means do that! smile.png

Just keep checking the CEAC, and like I said, once it says it's ready, send an email to IVNaples at state dot gov to ask whether they have received the petition or not.


Absolutely thrilled that we got our interview date today. It's in mid January, much quicker than we anticipated. Let the panic set it!!!

We're gonna be having the interview on the same date!!!
