K-1 Visa!!!

[Kathergarc 0]

Hi all!!!! I am a bit nervous and uneasy! I submitted my K-1 Visa in October, got notice that it was accepted and sent to the California service center. Although I am worried because I originally sent in an album with pictures of me and my significant other but my album was returned, I’m assuming it was too big. Now my issue is that I provided the paperwork and letters signed by both of us with our intent to marry as well as a copy of my passport and the entry stamps of when I entered Guatemala over the past 2 years. But I’m bummed that our pictures couldn’t be included and I don’t know if that will be an issue, also the passport photos.... I don’t know if there will be issues with not having those.... I have not received an RFE. It is now January  and I haven’t received notice of anything other than my case was received and sent to the California service center..... does anyone have any advice   I also received the form I-797C, Notice of Action that’s says my petition was received and is in process. I am just confused, I’ve read so many K-1 visa statements and I am a bit freaked out 😢

There's nothing to worry about at the moment

 

you did not receive an rfe because they are not at October cases yet or maybe after your other evidence they won't even need it( I think they may ask for it though.

 

they are doing june july at the moment so when they start October, you may or may not get an rfe. Do not worry now. It is not something too irregular. If you get an rfe then just send your pictures or whatever they ask for at that moment.

 

for passport photos though, you will most likely get an rfe if you couldn't send them. This also happens a lot, so again do not worry yet.

Okay thanks so much. It is just a bit overwhelming because I want things to work out well 😢 do you know how could I find out when they will be looking over October cases? Or is it just a matter of waiting it out?

You can create a vj timeline on your profile. It will give you an estimate. I believe right now it is late April to May for October.

Hello Kathergarc & Naes,

 

Sorry to interrupt, my K1 Fiancee Visa also filled last Sept 2017 and I also received the Form I-797C, Notice of Action that my petition was received and in the process as well.

 

But still, a bit worried. But as per Naes and the lawyer that I have spoken with that the process now is going to be until 4 or til 6 or more than.

 

I hope that will have a response from UCCIS soon.

 

Thanks,

Dheng

All I can say is; that's correct estimation at the moment. And I am also a September filer, expecting September to start around early to mid march and later. However it takes around 2 months or more for a months cases to wrap up. I wouldn't expect anything realistically before 6.5 months.

No one above who claims to have filed the "K-1 visa" has done so.  They've filed the I-129F petition, which, when approved, enables the beneficiary to apply for the K-1 visa.

 

During this process, precision in wording and understanding is important.
