Need to change consulate

[ridley 0]

My I129F petition is still at CSC, but I realized I used the wrong consulate when filling out the paperwork. What's the easiest way and the best stage of the game to get this changed? I inadvertantly used a consulate that doesn't process K1s. Oops!

Hi Ridley

The good news is that with a little luck the NVC will forward it on to the correct consulate as soon as your petition is approved and sent to them, regardless of what you wrote on the petition. You aren't changing countries altogether, are you?

I am not sure there is anything else for you to do about this right now, but perhaps someone else will have some ideas. I know that trying to send something else to your service center in the hopes it will find it's way to be attached to your initial petition isn't a very good bet.

After your get your NOA2 approval notice, you should receive a letter from the NVC, which will clearly state what embassy your petition is being sent to.

Good luck

I'm sure they will let you know...or you could email them and let them know what you did. Good luck

You're not the first

I suspect it will be auto-corrected for you, based on geography.

You should be ok, one thing we noticed right off the bat was our NOA's came from Toronto! We were like, huh? we thought it would be going through Montreal. When the interview was scheduled, it was correctly listed as Montreal. No problems there.

That's a relief. I'm not changing countries, no, and I imagine that they'll chose the correct embassy, though my fiance does live right in the middle of Canada.

Thanks for the reassurance, all!
