Hi guys,

so my fiance had his interview 10/21/2013 and they gave him the 221(g) paper and need one more paper. We are in the process of getting it and should get it in the next days, but my I-129 F petition approval will expire on 11/7/2013. I am afraid when they get the paper and process it the case would be already expired.

I did send an email to the embassy and their reply is always so vague, that I have one year to get the required document. I already knew that, but I am just afraid that the 1 year rule is for the embassy, and not the USCIS approved case.

Please help!!

Thanks

Your fiance already had the interview done which is mean your I-129F approval is invalid now. K-1 visa at embassy stage meanwhile I-129F is USCIS stage. Hope you can prepare the papers you need to get your K-1 visa being completed. Good luck.

That NOA2 expiration date is meaningless for K-1. The Embassy has your case and you have a year to get them the documents. Once you do, then you should get the visa.
