Point 62 of Form I-129 F: which Embassy/Consulate?

[JMK_IT 134]

Hello, I have a question regarding point 62 of Form I-129F.

My boyfriend, the petitioner, mailed the application today to request a K-1 Visa for me. 

I am Italian, so when he filed point 62 "U.S Embassy or U.S Consulate Requested", he wrote "Rome", which is the location of the US Embassy in Italy.

Doing some research, I found out that the Interview process takes place at the Consulate in Naples. Should my boyfriend have stated "Naples" instead of "Rome" in point 62, or will USCIS redirect the application there? Will this affect the validity of our application or is it just a minor detail? 

Thank you very much

If there are NO interview in ROME then when it gets to NVC they will forward it to the Embassy nearest to where you live or if they have any questions about it I'm sure they would reach out to you.

It will be NVC who redirects where the approved petition will go rather than the USCIS.

Hi Abasusrd,

I am the petitioner,  for my italian fiance, who livwes in Florence. I did the same thing and entered Florence as the consulate, insteadof Naples. I was wondering where NVC would send our documents. Did you find a suitable answer to this query?

Hello MagniB,

 

We just received our NOA2 last week. In doubt, we decided to just leave "Rome" as the answer for point 62, so I guess it makes no difference. There are no official directions from the website, so I guess it is just part of their job to redirect these types of applications to Naples. 

 

Currently waiting for our case number. Super excited. Good luck to you and your fiancé
