[wyndz73 0]

Don't be worried. Your still in the window for adjudication. They just havn't gotten to your file yet. You'll hear something soon, I am sure.

Hi Greenbaum,

We were just chatting earlier on the "Philippines" forum about my impatience.

After 16 days, I got my NOA2 approval finally.

Wanted to give an update on our K1 progress. NVC sent out our case on 9/11/2015 and the case was updated to Ready on 9/15/2015. My fiance was so excited because she had just finished getting her last bit of paperwork done; NBI clearance, Cenomar, etc... We got an appointment on 9/28 set up and she will be going off to Manila to take care of medical 1 week before. This process has moved along a lot faster than expected but still seems like forever away from my fiance. I Hope everyone gets as fast a process.

I was wondering if any July filers have been been approved yet for their K1 Visa?

I am going to Manila on 28th of September for my medical exam Anyways, I have 3 friends (July filers) and they just got approved last day at USEM. The questions were easy and complete all the documents needed because the consul might look for it.

HI,

I might be asking in the wrong portal but since we are all going thru the same process I thought maybe I get better answers then people who has gone thru the process before and don't remember all the little details, our petition was approved on 9-8 just last week, I waited a whole week and called the NVC today and they said they still don't have my case to call next week which is ok our priority date is January 9th, here is where I m beyond confused I am having my fiancé gathering some of the stuff like police certificate and getting his birth certificate and divorce decree apostille.. my confusion is he supposed to get something from the embassy ? sadly Venezuela doesn't have a mail delivery how we do here in the USA what should I do in this case? if anybody here that is almost at the interview stage and has gone thru the whole packet 3 and 4 stage... the process has kind of threw me off since everyone has told me different things... help would be greatly appreciated it we are targeting for a December interview

Sorry, but I am not up to speed on all things dealing with K1 through Venezuela. But here is what I recommend. Follow this link to the K1 immigration guide over in the US Embassy in Venezuela and do a little research there. If you have additional questions, try and email the Embassy for their help for the answer to your questions.

http://caracas.usembassy.gov/k1k2.html

Also, try and find others here who are processing through Venezuela for help. Under your profile on the left side of this page is a way to track your timeline. Select "timeline" and then next to your profile picture is "follow similar timelines" link. Select it and it will populate a page with others who are processing. I see 6 people with similar timelines as yours. Select any one of them. On the right hand side of their profile you will see "send me a message" and then compose your question to send as a private message asking for help. I'm sure someone there will help you along with your questions.

This may be a stupid question - but for the photo for the DS-160, can it be of either the petitioner or the beneficiary or does it have to be the beneficiary?

[6yearslater 4]

Also.. Does it matter that my fiance has only been working at his current job for 7 months and prior to that was an unemployed student so didn't have a high annual income in previous years? (He's a US veteran and was living off of the GI Bill). I'm worried now that we are filling out the affidavit

The photo is the beneficiary.

No it does not matter. What matters is can he meet the poverty guidelines for your new family size? Check the levels here http://www.uscis.gov/files/form/i-864p.pdf

QUICK QUESTION.

On the DS-160 it asks what your intended length of stay in the US is and it asks for YEARS, MONTHS, WEEKS, OR DAYS.

What do I put?!

[6yearslater 4]

Please disregard my previous message - I guess it was an error with my internet connection and the form and it hadn't removed that question after I had selected K-1 visa. DS-160 is done.. Now I just wait to pay for it once I receive my interview date.

Thank you so much

almost 4wks from approval, and no NVC case number yet, i have been calling NVC and they always say it will take 35 days to have the case sent to them from USCIS

[6yearslater 4]

I know it's hard but you just have to be patient - I got my NVC case number almost at the 35 day mark.. As did many on this thread. It does look like NVC are using close to the 35 days. Good news is once you get the case number is that it all goes really fast from that point on
