what information did you get about your expedited case?

Basically, we have to wait another 45 days even though we sent in our expedite case in September. They've only just picked up my expedite case on October 23rd. I was basically told they are really backed up and have a very limited amount of workers working on these files.

No problem, thank you for send me that.  Appreciate it.  LOL, can't use it yet, but soon hopefully.  

AnJ Co provided the 2Go website. 

 

You probably know this, but I will clarify for others (those going through Manila) who haven't reached this stage.  The UID# at the bottom of the Embassy appointment letter is used as the 2Go tracking number once the visa is issued.  So, once the CEAC site lists the visa as issued, in a few days you can track it.  They send an email or text (can't remember what I was told) as well.

 

We finally reached VOH last Thursday.  CFO is tomorrow.

 

Hopefully, you can get those clearances, finish up, and move on. 

Finally done.

That is a pretty tight timeframe to submit, acknowledge, approve, and issue.  Miracles can happen though.  Good luck

 

Our POE will be 11/14, so hopefully she will beat us back to the US.  Race is on... haha

Finally done.

If I'm not mistaken, we never had those, because the tracker wasn't working back then... We had a list of all the April cases so anyone could randomly check around their dates if they felt like it. I used to do that once in a while... :huh:

i think @Shoegum actually did run a few reports lately due to the delays and also to figure out why not too many may cases were approved sometime.... but not sure if it was just a few times or on a weekly / daily base....

 

 

N-400: 12/05/2023 (confirmed fingerprints are re-used)

Interview scheduled for: 05/09/2024

Also this:

 

 

Maybe you or someone can can answer this.......    I'm going to SSA in the morning..... I have the papers ready, the I-94 was online in a few days, and the SSA has an office close enough to be at in 15 minutes..... relatively simple.  However, I am curious of one thing.....    Why am I doing this??????   I mean, eventually a SSN is needed to work, but what is the benefit of doing this before the wedding?  Is it the continuity of the name from K1 to name change so a track record is established? or a SSN is needed for AOS??? (because AOS can be SSN or A number).  Just wondering what is the reasons a SSN is applied for right off?

Visa approved! Was surprisingly fast and quick...The Consule was asking questions fast! But those were very easy questions...Even did not have to wait long but I think it was because I booked the interview much earlier and there were not so many people ... so all good :)
And they did not look at a single pic and I had over 80!

Congratulations !!!:)
