@Murph4865 wrong numbers.

 

 

Do not wish to set rules around here, but there is a "July 2017" topic on this forum, so a little looking around would do. Not cool to just parachute in here and open topics as you please. This topic should be deleted.

@Romell you're on an F1 visa journey

@Abies youre on a CR1/IR1 visa journey

 

I think you both need to look at the timelines for approvals for your separate visa categories and service centers as this thread has been posted within the K1 visa section.

Not quite accurate.  There are still 3700 of the 4700 petitions yet to be touched (as of Friday last week).  There are also 1000+ April and 3800 June that are waiting for review.

PHILIPPINES ONLY!!!  CFO (Commission on Filipinos Overseas) INFO - Can't leave home without it!

 

PDOS (Pre-Departure Registration and Orientation Seminar) is for ages 20-59.  Peer Counseling is for 13-19 years of age.

It is required to have the visa in their passport for PDOS and Peer Counseling.

 

GCP (Guidance and Counseling Program) is for K-1 Fiancee and IR/CR-1 spouse ONLY.
