Is it OK if I join in on the fun over here? My receive date is March 28th but NOA1 is April 3rd. 127 days so far. Going cray! Everyone in March is getting their approvals and I'm sadly patiently waiting and losing my mind. :unsure::unsure:

Welcome to the family 😊😊😊

That's the first thing that crossed my mind when Putin gave them the boot. Hope you're unaffected my friends.

Most of the embassy workers who were fired, Russians: drivers, couriers, warehouse workers, etc.<_<

Naa, they're not going to shut down the embassy, but I think the processing will slow a bit. I hope it is only a bit. On the embassy site they have already posted delays for Visa's so ... we will see. In any event ... I'm not going to worry with it. I was waiting for my next trip to be for interview, but with all the events lately and USCIS dragging their feet ... I am going to resume my monthly visits until we get her here, which I don't mind because I like Russia ... it's too bad its hard to make a living there otherwise I would be outta here lol 

Should not affect the K-1 visa, since the approved petition is valid 4 months, from the date of NOA2..the interview date is tied to NOA2 .

Same! I use informed delivery but just another dud today! If I get it this week, I would be through the moon! :)

Just want to be with my fiancee... last time I seen him was in December.

Wow you're a very patient person! This process will really test that. Right now I see my fiancé on a monthly basis, but thats only because of geography and no visa physical visa required for tourists between our countries.

 

Welcome to the group!! I hope you hear something very soon :)

All of us should be extremely careful ... after approval and before the interview there are strictly 4 months ... only one day later - and the whole process from the very beginning ...   the preparation of documents for the interview not on the last day:jest:

Did anyone have their K-1 Visa done professionally? I was wondering if that affected when your case was processed due to the appearance of it.

I paid a local immigration lawyer recommended to me by a friend who is a criminal lawyer and I am still waiting. Not sure how much it helps but I didn't want to miss a single thing. Peace of mind more than faster processing.
